( CNN ) Two years ago in a less turbulent time , Mike Premeau and Kathy Danke launched a small business , Memories Gourmet Pizza Co. , in their Wisconsin town . The two were successful in getting their line of frozen pizzas , including breakfast pizzas and gluten-free options , in stores across Nichols , west of Green Bay . They grew a base of loyal customers . But all that was threatened this week when people began mistaking them for Memories Pizza of Walkerton , Indiana , which made national headlines after its owners said they would refuse to cater a same-sex wedding . People posted angry comments on Memories Gourmet Pizza 's Facebook page and called its phone number to protest . And almost overnight , Premeau and Danke found themselves thrust unwillingly into a national debate over Indiana 's controversial Religious Freedom Restoration Act . `` My stomach was in my throat all afternoon , '' Danke told CNN affiliates WBND and WFRV . `` All of a sudden , our Facebook page started getting flooded , '' Premeau said . `` I was shocked . It was like I was a rat running around in a cage , wondering what 's going on here . '' In a cruel coincidence , the flood of outrage began on Wednesday , April Fool 's Day . `` If I 'm ever in the area , I 'll be sure to starve to death before I give you and you intolerance any of my money ! '' wrote one commenter on Facebook . `` I do n't have much of a message , except that I hope your bigotry puts you out of business very quickly , '' a man said in a voice mail . Indiana pizzeria finds itself at the center of 'religious freedom ' debate . Premeau thinks the firestorm was sparked by people Googling `` Memories Pizza '' and confusing the two businesses -- despite the fact that Nichols and Walkerton are in separate states and almost 300 miles apart . He and Danke tried to defuse the outcry with a Facebook post saying in part , `` We are not that company in Indiana , nor do we agree or condone their words or actions . '' In response , they began getting messages of support on Facebook , along with a few sharp-tongued comments from supporters of the other Memories Pizza . Premeau said he also got a call from a man whose initial post may have set off the social media storm , apologizing for the mistake . Still , he worries that damage to his wholesale pizza business may have been done . `` This misinformation and this defamation of character could cause me to lose the business over someone else 's identity in another state , '' he said .
