I was very impressed with this place! Sadly I got there too late for a sub sandwich (the deli part closes at 4 PM), but we'll be coming back! It was awesome to look at a menu and know that anything was gluten-free and there was no cross contamination worries.

I think I need to move to Michigan.  I would love to open up a completely gluten free restaurant in my area but don't have the energy or patience for it right now ( or money lol).  Maybe someday ( now I hear Judy Garland singing).  Maybe I just need to follow the yellow brick road.  LOL

WOW is right next door to a Guido's pizza.  Guess what?  You can get "THE BEST" gluten free pizza ever at WOW! :D :D :D :D :D :D

 

Pizza is a very regional dish for what a person expects.  This is Midwestern goodness on a awesome gluten free crust.  (they also serve deep crust pizza) YUM

Yes, the Guido's pizza offers gluten free pizza! And they take precautions not to CC it!

He moved all the gluten free pizza making over to the WOW ovens.

 

I'm going there tomorrow!  Have to bring back pizzas for all my local gluten-free peeps.

Really??!! So that's how they prevent CC, is by making all the Guido's pizza on the WOW side? That is awesome!!

Yes. you can get the Guido's pizza gluten free, because it is made in the WOW without wheat ovens.

 

By the way the wow cookies sold on that big river on line store, are not from Without wheat in Okemos, MI

I'm going to WOW without Wheat this Sunday after the Lansing Hall of Fame Race!

 

I'm so excited to try out a sub there!

I tried out their sub and it was good, but it more closely resembled a flat bread sandwich than a sub. The wait time was rather long there.

 

What was ironic was that my sandwich was made in Guido's kitchen and not WOW's. If they go to such trouble with their pizzas and move them to the WOW ovens to bake, I'm not sure why they would make a sub in Guido's instead of WOW? The man assured me though that there was a completely dedicated prep space for subs there and they take necessary precautions against CC. Considering the signs that they put up warning people not to CC things in WOW, I believe that they know what they're doing, but it still seems strange that the sandwich wasn't made in the gluten-free bakery kitchen.

 

(WOW and Guido's function basically as one unit with a doorway connecting the two)

 

When we come back in a few months, I would like to try their pizza.

Sorry about the sandwich not being a top notch delight.  I totally love the pizza.

Everyone that stops there should encourage them to start opening chains or franchises for the rest of us.  Sounds like a great place to go!!

I talked to the owner about that.  Here's the problem, he opened the Guido's franchise first.  If he tries to break from Guido's he can't make pizza (or be in locations in the franchise areas)

 

As of right now my kids are planning on going to State, so I hope he stays put.  They will have some place to eat during their school years.  I will have some place to eat when I visit.

So, he has to make all the stuff except the gluten free pizza and the bakery goods in the Guido's kitchen?

      Cigars

      Welcome to the forum, @brian weinstein! Gluten is a protein found in wheat barley and rye kernels. Pectin is a polysaccharide (a very complex sugar) found in the cell walls of fruits and vegetables. It is most commonly used as a thickening agent in food products, particularly jellies. So, pectin is naturally gluten free. That is not to the...

      The test result will never be shown as zero because the most negative the result can be reported as is less than the lowest amount the test can detect. For example, you might see <2.

Too many people already have access to our cell phone numbers.

Even if her result is not yet in the normal range, going from more than 100 to 9 in a few months is great! Good job, mom.
