Meridian, Idaho- Chicago Connection

I just got an email from my MIL who lives in Meridian. She said she drove by Chicago Connection and there was a sign that said they now have Gluten Free crusts. I've never eaten there and I have no idea about their cross contamination preventions, but I thought that was pretty neat! Just thought I'd pass the information on. Has anyone had their pizza yet? If so let us know if it was any good!

Hey just an update- Hubby and I ate there tonight. It was really yummy too. The gluten-free crusts are 10" and they are the thin crust style, so they are pretty thin. I asked our waitress what brand they were but she wasn't sure. She thought they got them from Food Services but who knows. Next time I'm going to ask the manager. I would have asked them tonight but he wasn't there.

Hubby really liked the crust- it had almost a buttery flavor to it I thought. He preferred it over Louie's pizza and it was about the same price as Louie's only at Louie's their crust is about 7" but thicker (and more dry I think). I think I do prefer Chicago Connection because the atmosphere is more laid back too. But I like how you can get pasta at Louie's. Anyway, I'm starting to ramble but just wanted to let you all know about it!

Wow, that is great news! :) I will tell my dd. Her fiance has been gluten-free for a week or so to see if his rash on his face will clear up. My dd is not sensitive so cc shouldn't be a problem. Thanks for the tip and feedback. I bet other places will get wise when they hear Chicago Connection's business will be doing well. ;)

I just noticed this last week at the Nampa Chicago Connection. I loved their pizza pre-celiac. I can't wait to try it.

I think it's pretty cool that we have choices now! We can go to Louie's for a more "regular" style pizza or Chicago Connection for a thin crust style. I'm not really sure what I prefer yet as Louie's changed their crust and it's pretty dry now. But it is nice to have both styles!

Yay! My dd saw it on their sign in Boise too, just a few days ago!

I've beening enjoying both gluten-free pizza's at Louie's and Chicago Connection. I realized last night that I enjoy Louie's pizza more than CC's the day after. Got a slice in the toaster now... :D

Glad to find this website. I suffered from painful/embarrassing symptoms for more than year, and was fairly recently diagnosed a celiac. Having a background in biochemistry, it's still been a challenge to figure out what foods to avoid.

Thanks for all the info on this Forum! :P

Haven't been to Chicagoland yet - but I'll put on my list to try now that they have gluten-free pizza! Also heard that Uno Pizza is now serving gluten-free, but my favorite in Chicago is Marcello

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain
