Well, this morning, I decided to research Pizza Hut. This popular pizza chain launched their gluten free options in Australia. I wanted to find out how safe their gluten free options were for Celiacs in Australia.
Looking at their menu online, I notice a disclaimer on the bottom of the page. It says that their gluten free bases are prepared in an environment that contains gluten. Also, they tell us that most pizza toppings contain gluten.
Now, one may ask: Why say the menu is gluten free when, in fact, it is not? Why trick the Celiac and gluten allergy communities into buying pizzas that will cause violent internal reactions? Is it all about your bottom line? Are you trying to keep up with your competitors? Why advertise gluten items as gluten free?
Fellow Celiacs, I would highly recommend staying AWAY from Pizza Hut. As you can see, their gluten free menu isn't so gluten free.
Here's the link to their menu:
I am still researching locations here in America. As of right now, there are no Pizza Hut locations that offer gluten free options. If you travel to Australia, steer clear of Pizza Hut.
