****NEWSFLASH*****

 

CHUCK E CHEESE has  gluten-free pizza, & cupcakes !!!  My dghtr just had the pizza & said it's great!  She was in Miami.  I ( as well as many of you)  knew that they were testing the market in one state last yr but I had no idea that ithe gluten-free items were available in other CEC,The pizza was completely separate in it's own wrapping. No cc issues! . She was also so stuffed from the pizza that she didn't get to try the cupcakes/cookies.

 

The pizza is a very small personal size & cost  about $6. Heres more info:

I didn't think that Chuck e Cheese would get it right, like Dominoes did not, but it appears they have.  Now it's just a question of whether or not I want to eat a (frozen) cheese pizza in a restaurant, or just play games with the kids.  LOL

They should make a family size pizza that would be more economical. gluten-free moms need to eat too.  My dghtr said the pizza is very small & had to order 2. She is nt a big eater.  So $12 to feed 1 person pizza is very high. I can only afford this 1x in awhile.

I've seen the pizza and they are not small. They should be plenty to feed an older child or adult. It's the size of most personal pan pizzas.

I think it is a great move on their part.  Personally i wouldn't eat the pizza just because i recall their gluten stuff as being bad tasting (lol!!) but.. what a plus for kids.  Now they can go to those famous Chuck e Cheese b'day parties and eat along with all the other kids.  Good for Chuck E Cheese for doing it right!

Dghtr said it was good but of corse taste is a subjective thing. 

And Yes they did it right.

one day I ordered the gluten-free pizza and was waiting for it. After15 mts the cashier summons me over to apologize..they THOUGHT they had the gluten-free pizza but they ran out & it was on back order. I was pissed! I then spoke to the manager and he offered me a gluten-free cupcake for my inconveinance. So I brought it home to my dghtr, and it was DISGUSTING! It looks good but once you bite it...YUCK! and its $3!!

I know taste is a subjective thing, but I doubt any human being would enjoy this cupcake .

      Your genetic test results confirm that you carry the highest-risk markers for celiac disease, specifically the HLA-DQ2 haplotype (while being negative for HLA-DQ8). The fact that both HLA-DQA1*05 and HLA-DQB1*0201 appear twice means you inherited identical copies from each parent, making you homozygous for these genes. This double dose of the DQ2.5 haplotype is significant because it indicates an even stronger genetic predisposition to celiac disease compared to those who only inherit one copy. Research suggests that people with this homozygous pattern may have a higher likelihood of developing the disease, potentially more severe immune responses to gluten, and a stronger association with dermatitis herpetiformis (which aligns with your diagnosis). While this genetic profile doesn’t guarantee worse symptoms, it does reinforce why strict gluten avoidance is critical for you. Since you’re already diagnosed, the main takeaway is that your results explain your biological susceptibility—no further genetic counseling is needed unless you have family planning questions. The repeating variants simply mean both parents passed you the same high-risk alleles, which is why your body reacts so strongly to gluten. Ultimately, your diagnosis and management remain the same, but this insight helps underscore the importance of lifelong dietary diligence.

      It sounds like you and your daughter are navigating celiac disease with a lot of care and dedication, and it’s wonderful that you’re prioritizing her health and growth during this critical time. Since her antibody levels and growth have plateaued, tightening up her diet by avoiding eating out (except at dedicated gluten-free places) is a smart move—even if it’s challenging socially. Many parents of celiac kids report significant growth spurts once gluten exposure is minimized, so there’s hope she’ll catch up if her levels improve. As for the future, while her growth window closing may reduce some risks, celiac is lifelong, and staying as strict as possible will likely always be best to avoid long-term complications, even if occasional cautious outings become manageable later. Navigating this with a teenager is tough, especially with spontaneous social events. For unplanned outings, keeping safe snacks (like GF protein bars, nuts, or fruit) in her bag or your car can help. To boost nutrition, try sneaking in variety where you can—like lentil or chickpea pasta instead of rice pasta, or adding veggies and proteins to her favorite dishes. Involving her in meal planning might help with pickiness, and connecting with other celiac families or support groups could provide social strategies and emotional support. It’s exhausting, but you’re doing an amazing job—your efforts now will set her up for a healthier future. Hang in there!

      This is good news--I hope we can get this done on a national level!
