Godfather's Pizza

Hubby - I call him "Fang" - had a meeting last week where pizza was provided. To his surprise, Godfather's had a gluten-free pizza for him. The box had a seal to keep it shut, warning against contamination. He brought the leftovers home, so I tried it. It was pretty decent.

Then, this Sunday, they had a flyer and they advertised that they now offer gluten-free pizzas.

Opinions?

I've had it - its pretty good, and they were very careful about preparation, etc.

I don't think I'd trust it unless they prepare it in a dedicated gluten-free kitchen.

Just went to Godfathers website. It says the pizza is made & sealed at another location. It does not mention if it is cooked on a wire rack that other pizzas are cooked on or if they use the same cutter to cut it as they just used on a regular pizza. I sent them an email & will let you know if they respond.

Its a nice one delicious.

Just received a reply from Godfathers. According to them: Pizzas are made in a safe place & wrapped & shipped to the shop. They bake them on fresh parchment paper on specified racks & cut with designated tools. They consulted with the Celiac Assoc. I'm excited.

That chain isn't near me, but there is one on the way to Vegas from here. Unfortunately, they don't carry the gluten-free pizza yet, but I think before my next trip out there I may call and request it. It'd be nice to have it at the halfway point. :)

My kiddos and I are all gluten sensitive, and we LOVE pizza! I am soooo excited that Godfather's carried gluten-free pizza!!! I know where we are headed tomorrow night!

Just check the website for Godfathers to see where they have gluten free - its not in every store. Also, when Godfathers gave me the info, they asked if you try the pizza, to let them know how it it: www.godfathers.com/gluten-freesurvey. The lady at Godfathers seemed to really want to make a good product so constructive criticism is good.

Per the Godfathers Pizza Website Store Locator there is not one single Godfathers Pizza in Florida that serves their Gluten-Free Pizza. BUMMER! :(

Our Godfathers Pizza doesn't have the gluten free either. But a friend just told me about Garlic Jims and I checked there website and they actually have a whole gluten free menu! I'm going to try it soon. Probably this weekend. I checked Florida, the only one they have with the gluten free menu is in Miami.

I tried the locator (I'm in Springfield, MO) and got the same result - no stores within 100 miles have gluten-free pizza. So I used the website "contact us" to ask if any would be coming, and got the following reply. The Nixa store is no more than 5 miles from my house!

Subject: looking for gluten-free pizza

We are currently working with the franchise location in Nixa so they

would be able to sell the gluten-free pizzas. They will be attending a

training class that will teach them how to keep the gluten-free pizzas

free from cross contamination. I anticipate them having gluten-free

pizzas at that location later in March.

Please feel free to contact us again if you have any further questions

about this product.

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches. The latest study said: "the study did indicate some potential causal associations between celiac disease and migraine with or without aura, as well as between migraine without aura and ulcerative colitis...this study did not find evidence of a shared genetic basis..." Anyway, there is definitely a connection, and you can go through more of the articles here if you're interested: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.

      @tiffanygosci, Thiamine deficiency is a thing in pregnancy for "normal" people, so it's exponentially more important for those with celiac disease and malabsorption issues. I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I was curious what the vitamins were doing inside the body.  See my blog.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll to drop down menu "activities" and select blog.   So glad you're motivated to see the dietician!  We're always happy to help with questions.  Keep us posted on your progress!
