"  Last week, Domino&amp;#039;s became the first pizza chain to sell what they referred to as a gluten-free crust nationwide. But advocates for people with celiac disease \u2014 a serious autoimmune digestive disorder \u2014 raised concerns that the crust isn&amp;#039;t true to the advertisements. The new Domino&amp;#039;s crust is wheat, rye, and barley-free. It is made with rice flour, rice starch, potato starch, tapioca flour, and potato flour, among other ingredients. Those ingredients are fine for those with gluten sensitivity as well as those with celiac disease. What has celiac sufferers crying foul is the revelation that the &amp;quot;gluten-free&amp;quot; crusts are made in the same facilites with the same tools as the regular crusts. While that probably won&amp;#039;t affect those with gluten sensitivity, people with celiac disease can&amp;#039;t ingest food made on surfaces and with tools that have come in contact with gluten-containing ingredients. People with celiac disease don&amp;#039;t simply experience discomfort if they ingest gluten; they can suffer severe consequences, including damage to the small intestine.

Domino&amp;#039;s confirmed suspicions about its &amp;quot;Gluten Free Crust&amp;quot; on its website: &amp;quot;Pizzas made with Gluten Free Crust are made in a common kitchen. We do not have a separate area in our kitchens that are guaranteed free from gluten.&amp;quot; Domino&amp;#039;s introduced its new crust to target a growing population of gluten-sensitive Americans, estimated at nearly 18 million today. But for the 1 in 133 Americans who have celiac disease, misreading the term &amp;quot;gluten-free&amp;quot; can be dangerous.
