Gluten intolerance sucks. Still, it's my responsibility to avoid putting harmful stuff in my own mouth. It makes going to dinner with my colleagues a challenge. When they plan a "pizza" party, I'm essentially screwed. I grab an Atkins shake and color it done.

Here's something to think about. If they add "dough conditioner" to a non-gluten containing bread-like product (another horrid imitation) the alpha-amylase in there is going to cock your T-cells in your intestine just waiting for the first little bitty piece of gluten or gluten-like substance to come down your gullet.

It'll make ordinary Celiac feel like a garden party in comparison.

So, watch for those words: "dough conditioner" and "alpha amylase", and, also "extract of white kidney bean".

I’ve purchased gluten free pizza for a family member and it’s expensive but they say it’s good.
