GREAT NEWS for some Southern Celiacs. I was soooo excited and hoping they would have it in Carmel, Indiana, but naaaaaaaaa. Maybe soon. Hope so.

OH YAY!!!!! A couple of years ago, our news broadcasted a piece about Raleigh being one of the top test markets. Looks like they were right!!! I can't wait to go check it out.

I went to a Mellow Mushroom in Raleigh this weekend and it was the best gluten free pizza I have tried yet! It tasted just like a regular thin crust pizza to me. They had a ton of topping options. My only wish was that they could make it with a different type of cheese. I asked about using cheddar instead of mozzarella because cheddar is lower in lactose. Our waiter went back to check with the kitchen and came back to tell me that the cheddar cheese has gluten and I could only have mozzarella. But I was so glad that he checked and I was impressed that they knew that info instead of just saying that cheddar would be safe. They had so many topping options that I'm not going to complain one bit.

The pizza was a medium size (only size option available) and was cut into 8 slices. I had leftovers and took it home in a box. The leftovers were good, but not as good as the first time it had been cooked. I could taste the bean flour a little more after re-heating it. Also for some reason the mozzarella did not bother me the first time I ate it, but the leftovers triggered a lactose-intolerance response. Could be just because I had cheese two days in a row, however. I rarely eat cheese.

For anyone that is curious the ingredients in the crust are: bean flour, rice flour, tapioca flour and starch, xantham gum, salt, yeast, egg, cider vinegar, sugar, canola oil, calcium propionate.

I really wish we had a Mellow Mushroom restaurant around here. But I will settle for going there two-three times a year when I visit friends in Raleigh.

I have been asking in Atlanta for the last 6 months and no test market here...go figure.

Mellow Mushrooms are everywhere in Atlanta, and when I ask, they look at me like they have never heard of gluten free pizza. Only one midtown store said they really wanted to offer it.

They get their crusts from the Still Riding company. You can print a brochure and submit your local restaurant as a suggestion online. Maybe if you and several others ask they will start to carry the gluten free pizza crusts there. Open Original Shared Link

PS: There are several locations in towns on the outskirts of Northern Atlanta that are carrying it already: Marietta, Sandy Springs, Dunwoody, and Tucker. So you may be closer to getting gluten-free pizza than you think.

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?
