Anyone have any good recommendations for a good take out place for gluten-free pizza in the Schaumburg/Arlington Heights/Buffalo Grove area? There's a million pizza places around, so there has to be one.

I have yet to find a place in the area that does a gluten-free crust. However... Lou Malnati's does a gluten-free pizza that uses their deep dish sausage patty as the "crust" layer and then piles everything else on top of that - and they use dedicated pans to cook it. Prices start out the same as a sausage deep dish (I get no crust but hey - I have a safe pizza option so I will not complain) plus your toppings.

DaLuciano's in River Grove sells their pizza frozen. Not quite take out, but close - and it's really good. You could probably get it to go if you called.

Aurelio's (various locations) has gluten free pizza and does take-out and delivery, but I've heard it's not great. I haven't tried it myself.

do you have a Boston Pizza in your area. We just found out this week that our local Boston Pizza has a gluten free one with a variety of toppings available. We took our two grandaughters there yesterday and they both enjoyed their pizza. Only single serving size was available, but we were happy to be able to take them out!

Godfather's offers a gluten-free crust. It's decent. Do you have a Biaggi's nearby? They make an awesome gluten-free pizza.

I was told by Lou Malnati's today that they do not have dedicated pans or work areas for their gluten free pizza. So please be careful! They also said they are working on perfecting a gluten free crust, which is pretty exciting.

I believe California Pizza Kitchen at Woodfield has a gluten-free menu, but again, no dedicated pans or work areas. There's a Biaggi's in Deer Park that has gluten-free pizza, but I was underwhelmed by the crust. They use Tinkyada pasta, but I've found it doesn't make the ride home if I'm doing take-out, and honestly, if I'm going to have Tinkyada I might as well make something myself.

Boston Pizza assured us that they have a dedicated work area, pans and knifes for their gluten free pizza's. I hope this idea catches on everywhere. It seems more and more people need to be gluten free.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
