Pizza Place Glutening?


Steph1

Recommended Posts

Yesterday a friend asked me to lunch and I brought my own to be safe.  We ate at a pizza place, and I didn't eat or drink anything from the store.  Is it possible that I was glutened just by eating in there?  If not I don't know what it could be from.  I also had sabra olive hummus, but it says gluten free and seems like others are fine with it.  Thanks!

  I  say  no to getting  gluten  from just being  in a place  for  a  short amount of time...I'm sure  you  put  down a  napkin  before you placed  your  food   on  a  table..... if  you were a  worker  at a pizza  shop  then I could understand  that  could  present  a problem...

 

super  sensitive  people  could  have  a problem   maybe... I know  when I walk  by  a  Auntie Anne's  pretzel place  in the mall, I  get light  headed from the  smell... so I  run past  quickly holding  my hand over  my face...I  think it is  just  the  smell  as  I react  to  a lot of  smells  having  nothing to do with  celiac...

 

Hummus    is  okay...did  you check on the crackers  you were  eating with it?

Note:  Super Sensitive view and I hope you can just ignore my post, but if you can't it is really good to know that others have problems.:

 

I react to eating a my own food at a restaurant or person's home, but I don't know if it Is celiac or something else.  It would be really easy at a pizza restaurant for flour to land on the silverware or table and end up on the plate.  It could be really easy to cross contaminate while in someone's home with a used pot holder, or setting something on a gluteny surface.

Desperate-  I don't think I am super sensitive.  I definitely can't eat things made on shared equipment or cooked on the same surface.  I don't know what types of reactions super sensitive people have.  I will read about it after this.

No crackers, just carrots.

 

I also had gluten free chex which I thought I reacted to before, but dismissed it because I thought I must be wrong.  Maybe it's the corn in the chex?  I don't have a constant headache, so maybe this is a little different?

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).

      This topic has come up before on this forum and has been researched. No GMO wheat, barley and rye are commercially available in the USA. Any modifications are from hybridization, not laboratory genetic modification. Better toleration of wheat, barley and rye products in other countries is thought to be due to use of heirloom varieties of these cereal grains as opposed to the hybrids used in the USA which contain much larger amounts of gluten.

      Welcome to the forum @Ceekay! If you have celiac disease then you can't eat wheat in other countries because it would still contain gliadin, the harmful part of the grain. Have you been diagnosed with celiac disease?

      I can eat wheat products safely and without discomfort when traveling to Mexico, Outer Mongolia, and Japan. I feel that US wheat, barley, and rye are grown from genetically-modified seeds that have had something unhealthy done to them, that causes a bad reaction in many of us.

      I think all barley and barley malt  have gluten. I would avoid it. The only gluten-free beer I've tried that tastes good is by Holidaily, a Colorado brewery. Their Fat Randy's IPA is great, except that it's almost impossible to find and grocers won't order it (they're at the mercy of their "food distributors," who seem to hate Holidaily). If you can find any Holidaily, try it--it's great. Never mind Spain -;)
