Mellow Mushroom has a great gluten free pizza. Haven't tried it yet but that's what I am hearing word-of-mouth.

No, you're right. Wheat is quite different now than a few hundred years ago. There are celiacs that can tolerate some heirloom strains of wheat (like einkorn and emmer) but not modern strains.

If any friends came to my house and started talking gluten I would show them the door. Seriously who strikes up gluten in a casual conversation? any one who would deserves this.

My wife makes an amazing gluten free crust so it isn't really necessary but alternatives are nice. |

https://simplygluten-free.com/blog/2...ls-recipe.html She sells a flour mix you can use that is gluten free plus provides a lot of good recipes. Her cherry almond muffins are awesome. Luckily, I can use Spelt flour which tastes identical to wheat but is lighter. It is used in Europe for pastries. It has gluten in it but I just can't have wheat. I buy VitaSpelt for their pastas too. |

I usually make my own crust but don't always have the time. I make a nice cornmeal crust and one with flax but my favorite is the corn meal. I have to also avoid yeast, especially when mixed with flour and sugar. So I use baking powder instead. It's a crispy crust but I love it now. |

Yeah, I know but I suspect one reason is for reactions is the changes in the wheat including the gluten being affected as being the cause. Things have changed especially since GMO and wheat is one of the most GMO'd foods as is corn and soy. So why the new phenomena? Seems date coincident but is just a suspicion.

I've been gluten free for almost 9 years (since before the fad, yo) and it is a major PITA. However, no longer constantly feeling like I have glass in my intestines makes it worth it.

Yeah. I could see that as a small benefit.

If gluten is wrong, I don't want to be right.

I just have to be thankful that I don't have any food allergies or gastrointestinal issues.

Gluten free as a diet fad, I'm not really high on that.
However, having to live gluten free because of celiac disease is an entirely different story. |
