Default Gluten Free Pizza Sucks

My wife has cut wheat out of her diet. She realized last year that it was the cause of the intestinal problems she had experienced her whole life.

Her diet Doesn't affect me much. But we used to get take out pizza all the time. I'm a pizza snob. God dammit, i love pizza. Not any pizza, but the great scratch made kind with perfect crust. Crust is everything when it comes to good pizza.

Now, we're relegated To ordering pizza from two places in town that offer Gluten Free crust. It's horrible. Like a flavorless slab. Even with great toppings it's a let down.


The things we do for love.

So she has celiac disease? You could make your own pizza, the mixtures are pretty good.

You can't make it soft and chewy without gluten, but you can get a good crunchy oily base that's kinda good, in a greasy crispy kinda way.

It's the sandwiches that make me gag. Sweet baking is actually better gluten free IMO. Better texture, because you want less gluten anyway.

My wife buys GF bread from a local deli. She likes it but to me it tastes like cardboard.

It's not only the texture. It's the flavor. Same with GF pasta

Actually quite familiar with GF products. I work in the food industry and spent several years dealing with GF suppliers. Not familiar with vixnix, though. Haven't seen that brand here. We buy a lot of stuff from Udi and Schar. Both not too bad.

Ohhhh yeah you're quite right I never tried the mixtures actually! They do have them in New Zealand. I did try the baking one, not the bread or pizza dough ones. I had a pizza made with a bread mix one and it was as I described, oily and crispy, which for a pizza actually I love, it's like bruschetta or fettunta. But the bread mix she used was not a reputed one in GF circles, I learned afterwards. I just adapted my diet to live without bread stuff I think. I ate a lot of other cereals instead, and nuts and beans.

As a dietician I wonder how she came to the diagnosis of glutenintolerance? The only way to be sure is to get a colonbiopt.

Im also suspicious about the GF-pizza. If its made in the same kitchen as the regular pizza's, there will be contamination. Even a small fraction of gluten gives insane reactions in people with true glutenintolerance.

you're correct. she did not get tested. I've told my wife the same thing. but if she feels better right now that's all that matters to me.

She came to it through experimentation with her diet. We have a friend who has Crohn's and a friend that was diagnosed with Celiac. My wife had talked to both of them about it and got the idea to cut out wheat. GF is something of a fad diet right now. Especially amongst athletes. So we have a number of other friends who are eating that way, even though they have no intolerance to gluten.

people who don't actually have celiac who eat gf are the WORST.

next time you want pizza, get a real pizza and tell the wife to eat her own gf shit.
