Caution With Pillsbury Gluten Free Dough ( Pizza )


chiplady

Recommended Posts

Please use caution if you try Pillsbury Gluten Free Dough for pizza. I follow my gluten free diet 100% after 2 1/2 years  with Celiac disease. It smelled sourbut I thought it was just the yeast smell and after eating only 1 slice I couldn't leave the house for 2 days due to bathroom problems. I was very sick abd even my big Choc Lab wouldn't eat the crust. I have written Pillsbury and The Celiac Foundation. ( I use other gluten free pre-made crusts and have 3 pizza shops in town that serve gluten free and have no problem )

It could just have been that you got a bad batch. It happens sometimes :/

There are eggs in the dough.  (So it won't be eaten at our house)  It is sold from the refridgerated section.  The egg product may not have been handled properly and lead to your tummy problems.

 

I don't know how many times I have spotted people deciding not to buy an item and just put it down randomly in the store.  I don't think employees are supposed to put it back for sale in the shelves, but I think they do.

I had no issues with it. I have noticed it has a very short refrigerated shelf- life.

i only tried it once and had no problem - and being it has soy <and soy hates me) i was expecting to have issues.  but i did not.  maybe you did just get a bad batch or something that wasn't kept refrigerated.  

 

i have a container of it in the friger.......  lurking..........   <_<

I have learned that if a food smells bad, don't eat it. This frequently has nothing to do with gluten. Many foods can go bad, and they frequently warn you with an "off" odor.

mleh - i made more of the pizza with pillsbury crust and it was fine.  again.  the op of this thread evidently showed up, made one post and hasn't been back since.  they must have picked up one that went 'bad' - so far nobody else has had trouble with this product that i know of.  i started a thread about it a while back and everybody on it seemed to do ok :)

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
