Pizza Pie Cafe And Eleanor's Bake Shop

Went out twice this week. On Tuesday I went with my husband to Pizza Pie Cafe. They do an all you can eat salad, pizza and pasta and for an extra $2 you can get a gluten free pizza brought to your table. The pasta was overcooked and falling apart, but the sauce was delicious. I made my husband get a gluten free pizza too so I could have one regular and one dessert pizza. While both were okay, the crust left something to be desired. Overall though, at $7 to go between 2 and 4 it wasn't a bad deal... or so I thought. About an hour or so after we got home I realized that something I ate was contaminated. Thankfully I wasn't sick more than a few hours but I would recommend anyone against going here.

Second, for my anniversary yesterday my husband finally took me to Eleanor's Bake Shop which is about 30 minutes away. We haven't gone before because driving half an hour for a cupcake seems a bit silly. I got an almond cupcake and some cake pops and a chicken salad arepa. I was a little scared, because who puts cinnamon in chicken salad, but then I took a bite. It was ecstasy, as were the cake pops and cupcake. Anyone who gets anywhere near Salt Lake City in Utah should absolutely look this bakery up. The flavors change every day, but they post a menu on their website so you know what they'll have before you head there.

      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.
