Do Not Eat At Dominoes!


Munzie

Recommended Posts

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

      I agree.  If someone has Barrett's Esophagus, at least here in the UK, as I understand it under normal circumstances a PPI needs to be taken long term (or similar medication).  I have two friends with this.  The PPI it does have side effects but they still have to take it.

      Do talk to your doctor about making changes to your medication.    I'm not a medical doctor.   I'm a microbiologist.  I studied nutrition before switching to microbiology because I was curious what vitamins were doing inside the body. I would hate to give advice that jeopardizes your health, so do discuss things with your doctor.

      @Jmartes71, Sorry you've been feeling so poorly.   Are you taking any medication to treat the SIBO?   Are you taking any Benfotiamine?  Benfotiamine will help get control of the SIBO.  Thiamine deficiency has symptoms in common with MS. Have you had your gas appliances checked for gas leaks and exhaust fume leaks?  Carbon Monoxide poisoning can cause the same symptoms as the flu and glutening.  Doctors have to check venous blood (not arterial) for carbon monoxide.  Are other inhabitants sick, or just you?  Do they leave the house and get fresh air which relieves their symptoms?

      European wheat is often a "soft wheat" variety which contains less gluten than "hard wheat" varieties found in the States.   In European countries, different cooking methods and longer  fermentation (rising or proofing) times allow for further breakdown of gluten peptides. Wheat in the States is a blend of hard and soft wheat.  Gluten content can vary according to where the wheat was grown, growing conditions, when harvested, and local preference, so a blend of both hard and soft wheat is used to make a uniform product.   I moved around quite a bit as a child in a military family.  I had different reactions to gluten in different areas of the country every time we moved.  I believe some wheat breeds and blends are able to provoke a worse immune response than others.   Since European soft wheat doesn't contain as much gluten as American wheat, you may try increasing your intake of your soft wheat products.  A minimum of ten grams of gluten is required to get a sufficient immunological response so that the anti-gluten antibodies leave the intestines and enter the bloodstream where they can be measured by the tTg IgA test.  Your whole wheat bread may only have a gram of gluten per slice, so be prepared...

      From my own experience and that of others who have tried to discontinue PPI use, I think your taper down plan is much too aggressive. It took me months of very incremental tapering to get to the point where I felt I was succeeding and even then I had to rely some days on TUMS to squelch flareups. After about a year I felt I had finally won the battle. Rebound is real. If I were you I would aim at cutting back in weekly increments for two weeks at a time rather than daily increments. So, for instance, if you have been taking 2x20mg per day, the first week cut that down to 2x20mg for six days and 1x20 mg for the other day. Do that for two weeks and then cut down to 2x20mg for five days and 1x20 for two days. On the third week, go 20x2 for four days and 20x1 for 3 days. Give yourself a week to adjust for the reduced dosage rather than reducing it more each week. I hope this makes sense.
