Do Not Eat At Dominoes!

Hi, don't know if this was discussed previously (somehow lost my old sign in) but I feel the need to share that I had a Gluten Free pizza (small $13!!!!!) at Dominoes the other day and payed with sickness for almost two days! I wrote Dominoes about the way their pizzas are prepared.....no one there seems to take any precautions.....and what I got back was a simple *sorry*, but they don't recomend their Gluten Free pizza for folks with Celiac or Gluten allergies. What's up with that?????

Anyhow, just a warning to anyone who gets a craving for a pizza :-). Attached is the email I got

I'm very sorry for the unpleasant experience you had while eating a Domino’s pizza prepared with a Gluten Free Crust. We developed our Gluten Free Crust as an option for consumers with mild gluten sensitivity, not those with celiac disease. Customers with gluten sensitivities should exercise judgment in consuming pizza prepared with this crust.

Our goal is to ensure that all consumers are provided with the appropriate product information needed to make an informed decision about consuming a pizza made with a Gluten Free Crust. While there is no gluten in our crust, no gluten in our pizza toppings (except for Philly Steak and Alfredo sauce), and no airborne flour in our stores, we do understand that by preparing pizzas made with these crusts in a common kitchen with the same equipment that there is a risk for gluten exposure. Therefore, Domino’s DOES NOT recommend this pizza for customers with celiac disease. We do our best to communicate this to customers through a variety of public disclosures in printed materials, online communications and by our store team members. We regret that you were not aware of these disclosures prior to ordering and consuming a pizza made with our Gluten Free Crust.

At Domino’s, we take food safety issues very seriously and will continue to work on educating customers about our Gluten Free Crust. Again, we regret that this experience did not meet your expectations.>>>>>>>

Welcome, again!

 

This has been discussed before, but never a problem to remind folks that simply because any restaurant has items made without gluten ingredients it does not mean those items are safe for those with Celiac Disease.

Dominoes' has been pretty up front about the fact that they do not take any precautions for Celiacs.  I think a few people have talked with their local Dominoes in person and had better luck.

And what the heck is mild gluten sensitivity?  In my mind there is nothing mild about it!

The warnings are all over the place at Dominos. I have reactions with them about 50% percent of the time, my so rarely, so yeah it depends on your sensitivity to cross contamination, addtl ingredients, etc

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      My skin biopsy and MRI scan shows no signs of any type of nerve damage. Nothing consistent with demylination or peripheral nerve damage. On the contrary, the nerve function from the skin biopsy proved better than normal. I don't get any pins and needles or have any loss of nerve function. It's pain only. Thiamin I take is 100mg a day in tablet. I...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      @HectorConvector, My blood glucose level would spike after I ate. It wouldn't return to "normal" fasting blood glucose level for longer and longer. Blood glucose level should return to normal an hour after eating. Mine would take two hours, then three hours, then longer. So over night fasting blood tests wouldn't necessarily be very high until they...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      These symptoms started initially in 2009/2010 and I've had normal blood sugar readings in all the blood tests - so never been diagnosed with diabetes or pre-diabetes. I did request another blood test recently (yesterday in fact) which I have had, and if the blood sugar looks high it'll come up in my results which I'll be able to see next week. I don't have...

      9 y/o Son Diagnosed with Celiac Disease; Persistent Symptoms: Does this Sound Familiar?

      I used to react very badly to milk - much worse than to gluten and I was always worried about exposure. Any diary product would make me extremely ill and put me out of action for 5 days or so. I would have watery and bloody diarrhoea, bloating, malaise and be unable to eat. If I recall correctly, it was about a year after being diagnosed with coeliac disease...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      My skin biopsy and MRI scan shows no signs of any type of nerve damage. Nothing consistent with demylination or peripheral nerve damage. On the contrary, the nerve function from the skin biopsy proved better than normal. I don't get any pins and needles or have any loss of nerve function. It's pain only.  Thiamin I take is 100mg a day in tablet. I used to test blood sugar a lot in the past, and it never correlated directly with the nerve pain. It has only correlated with increased exercise and stress. The after eating getting worse thing happens when the blood flow is directed to the stomach for digestion away from the peripheral areas, which is normal, but central sensitization has caused normal sensations to be turned into pain by the brain, according to the latest doctors, hence whey I am being referred to the pain clinic.

      @HectorConvector, My blood glucose level would spike after I ate.  It wouldn't return to "normal" fasting blood glucose level for longer and longer.  Blood glucose level should return to normal an hour after eating.  Mine would take two hours, then three hours, then longer.  So over night fasting blood tests wouldn't necessarily be very high until they got really bad.  But the peripheral neuropathy would feel the worst while my glucose was too high.  My blood glucose meter confirmed this.   On top of all that, my Celiac disease was still undiagnosed at the time, and I was suffering from malabsorption and nutritional deficiencies.  The deficiencies in B vitamins affected not just insulin production in the pancreas, but also the nerves in my extremities.  Nerves need B vitamins to maintain the myelin sheath protecting the nerves (like the plastic coating on electrical wires) when they fire.  When the myelin sheath is not maintained, that "pins and needles" feeling starts and increases as more of the sheath is damaged.  My parathesia progressed until the "pins and needles" went from my toes all the way up to my thighs.   Without sufficient vitamins, I started slowly losing weight.  Our bodies will start using not only stored fat, but also tear down our own muscles to provide fuel for the body to stay functional.   I hope you don't have pre-diabetes or diabetes.  Most diabetics have a thiamine deficiency.   How much thiamine are you taking?  What form of Thiamine are you taking?

      These symptoms started initially in 2009/2010 and I've had normal blood sugar readings in all the blood tests - so never been diagnosed with diabetes or pre-diabetes. I did request another blood test recently (yesterday in fact) which I have had, and if the blood sugar looks high it'll come up in my results which I'll be able to see next week. I don't have any other symptoms relevant to diabetes except for the nerve pain, which had been in existence for many years with "normoglycaemia", but we'll see. In terms of my current diet: I get roughly 60% of my calories from fat and protein, and 40% from carbs (an estimation). I'm on currently about 2200 calories per day, which is too low for someone of my size, so I've been slowly losing weight that I want to put back on again. But I don't want to do that without using weights, which flare my pain up unfortunately.

I would have watery and bloody diarrhoea, bloating, malaise and be unable to eat. If I recall correctly, it was about a year after being diagnosed with coeliac disease and going on a strict gluten free diet that I accidentally consumed dairy products and didn't react. From then on, I have been fine with diary.

      Sorry, I just realized how old this thread is and only read the initial post from 2021. I'll have to catch up on the comments in this thread.
