gluten-free Pizza Delivery In Kansas City!

I'm a new poster (but frequent visitor here). Wanted everyone in Kansas City to know (if you don't yet) that Waldo Pizza at 72nd and Wornall now has gluten-free crusts available (supplied by Olivia's Oven, the new gluten-free bakery in town). My understanding is that the owner of Olivia's Oven has worked closely with the owner of Waldo's and his staff to ensure awareness of cross-contamination issues.

I had pizza delivered to my house last night and I was in heaven!! Really delicious.

I'm jealous too. We have Jules here in PA, but their crust isn't very good and their pizzas are VERY pricey... like $20!!

That is VERY cool. I will have to make a point to try to find the place. Do you have to order ahead or do they always have them?

Can you give me some landmark that it is near?

Ohhhh and how much do the pizzas cost?? :) Thanks for posting this!! I am excited.

Sorry for the previous attempt to reply. I'm new at this! Jessica--Waldo Pizza is at 72nd and Wornall in that strip mall where TAnner's is. Are you in Kansas City, MO? Wornall is just a few blocks east of STate Line.

I'm not sure if they always have the crust--I know Olivia's Oven delivers crusts on Fridays, so they are always well stocked for weekends. But I called for delivery on Tuesday night and they had them, too. I think because word hasn't spread yet, they probably have them most of the time.

We got two 13-inch pizzas for $21. I think that was with Waldo's Tuesday coupon--which they will give you if you just ask about it.

Let me know if you need any other info!

I was just coming here to post this!!!!!

75th and Wornall folks!!

We are going there for dinner tonite!!!

Carreen, at Olivia's Oven, is my HERO!!!! Her stuff is SO great, I always have a stash of crusts in my freezer, but there is just something SO different about having them cooked in a pizza oven!! We are having a huge delivery here on Tuesday, gluten-free goodies to take with us to Grandma's for Thanksgiving!!

Nope, don't live in KC, however do go up that direction for shopping quite a bit :) Thanks for the great pizza tip. I can't wait to go check it out.

My brother was asking me what I wanted for christmas and I told him "Waldo's pizza" haha Just the thought of having pizza in a real pizza place has me all excited. I'm such a nerd!!

We did end up going there for dinner. I was SOOOOO thrilled!!

We went early, I figured it would be a better way to head off x-contam issues. My daughter kept asking our server if she was sure the crust was really gluten free. It was so cute! She was SO happy when the pizza was set down in front of her. I mean seriously happy!! She took her first bite and screamed, "I LOVE THIS PIZZA!!"

She scarfed down 3 slices!! I haven't seen her eat that much in one sitting in a LONG time.

I agreed with her assessment. I loved the pizza. As I mentioned, I do purchase crusts from Olivia's Oven, but pizza baked in a pizza oven just tastes SOOOOOOO different. It was totally yummy. And, I have a feeling I'm going to become a Waldo Pizza regular!!!

Since I'm not in Missouri I'm not in their delivery area. But, I would have no problem sending DH over there on his way home from work to bring home a pizza every now and then. =) =) =)

Nope. It's really not that bad. =) =)

I could have easily eaten the whole thing myself, had I been given the opportunity!

I'm so glad you guys like it, too! I always know when something gluten-free really is great when my mom and my husband (non-celiacs) love it, too. And I know what you mean about eating pizza out in a restaurant--it is so different from making it at home (and no clean up!).

Daniels BBQ has a gluten free menu. We've eaten there once, and were pleased. It's not a nice sit-down restaurant or anything, it's typical KC BBQ fare, but it's yummy!

coleen, its not bad that you ate the whole thing, because you were eating it in honor of the rest of us. So really, you didn't eat that much ;)

I think I might fly out to KC for the night just to eat this magical pizza. My trips are going to be based on where I can eat :)

      New (possible) celiac diagnosis

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Judy M! Yes, he definitely needs to continue eating gluten until the day of the endoscopy. Not sure why the GI doc advised otherwise but it was a bum steer.  Celiac disease has a genetic component but also an "epigenetic" component. Let me explain. There are two main genes that have been identified as providing the "potential" to develop "active" celiac disease. We know them as HLA-DQ 2.5 (aka, HLA-DQ 2) and HLA-DQ8. Without one or both of these genes it is highly unlikely that a person will develop celiac disease at some point in their life. About 40% of the general population carry one or both of these two genes but only about 1% of the population develops active celiac disease. Thus, possessing the genetic potential for celiac disease is far less than deterministic. Most who have the potential never develop the disease. In order for the potential to develop celiac disease to turn into active celiac disease, some triggering stress event or events must "turn on" the latent genes. This triggering stress event can be a viral infection, some other medical event, or even prolonged psychological/emotional trauma. This part of the equation is difficult to quantify but this is the epigenetic dimension of the disease. Epigenetics has to do with the influence that environmental factors and things not coded into the DNA itself have to do in "turning on" susceptible genes. And this is why celiac disease can develop at any stage of life. Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition (not a food allergy) that causes inflammation in the lining of the small bowel. The ingestion of gluten causes the body to attack the cells of this lining which, over time, damages and destroys them, impairing the body's ability to absorb nutrients since this is the part of the intestinal track responsible for nutrient absorption and also causing numerous other food sensitivities such as dairy/lactose intolerance. There is another gluten-related disorder known as NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just, "gluten sensitivity") that is not autoimmune in nature and which does not damage the small bowel lining. However, NCGS shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease such as gas, bloating, and diarrhea. It is also much more common than celiac disease. There is no test for NCGS so, because they share common symptoms, celiac disease must first be ruled out through formal testing for celiac disease. This is where your husband is right now. It should also be said that some experts believe NCGS can transition into celiac disease. I hope this helps.

      New (possible) celiac diagnosis

      By Judy M · Posted

      My husband has had lactose intolerance for his entire life (he's 68 yo).  So, he's used to gastro issues. But for the past year he's been experiencing bouts of diarrhea that last for hours.  He finally went to his gastroenterologist ... several blood tests ruled out other maladies, but his celiac results are suspect.  He is scheduled for an endoscopy and colonoscopy in 2 weeks.  He was told to eat "gluten free" until the tests!!!  I, and he know nothing about this "diet" much less how to navigate his in daily life!! The more I read, the more my head is spinning.  So I guess I have 2 questions.  First, I read on this website that prior to testing, eat gluten so as not to compromise the testing!  Is that true? His primary care doctor told him to eat gluten free prior to testing!  I'm so confused.  Second, I read that celiac disease is genetic or caused by other ways such as surgery.  No family history but Gall bladder removal 7 years ago, maybe?  But how in God's name does something like this crop up and now is so awful he can't go a day without worrying.  He still works in Manhattan and considers himself lucky if he gets there without incident!  Advice from those who know would be appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!

      You've done an excellent job of meticulously tracking the rash's unpredictable behavior, from its symmetrical spread and stubborn scabbing to the potential triggers you've identified, like the asthma medication and dietary changes. It's particularly telling that the rash seems to flare with wheat consumption, even though your initial blood test was negative—as you've noted, being off wheat before a test can sometimes lead to a false negative, and your description of the other symptoms—joint pain, brain fog, stomach issues—is very compelling. The symmetry of the rash is a crucial detail that often points toward an internal cause, such as an autoimmune response or a systemic reaction, rather than just an external irritant like a plant or mites. I hope your doctor tomorrow takes the time to listen carefully to all of this evidence you've gathered and works with you to find some real answers and effective relief. Don't be discouraged if the rash fluctuates; your detailed history is the most valuable tool you have for getting an accurate diagnosis.

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In this case the beer is excellent, but for those who are super sensitive it is likely better to go the full gluten-free beer route. Lakefront Brewery (another sponsor!) has good gluten-free beer made without any gluten ingredients.

      Welcome to the forum, @catsrlife! Celiac disease can be diagnosed without committing to a full-blown "gluten challenge" if you get a skin biopsy done during an active outbreak of dermatitis herpetiformis, assuming that is what is causing the rash. There is no other known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis so it is definitive for celiac disease. You would need to find a dermatologist who is familiar with doing the biopsy correctly, however. The samples need to be taken next to the pustules, not on them . . . a mistake many dermatologists make when biopsying for dermatitis herpetiformis.
