Shit thats looking good Ruutu - nice DMC tribute...and doing a diet thing is a good thing - you'll lose weight, trim down and stay alive - take it from me man...I'll always remember the nutritionist showing me what my insides look like, if I had a donut/muffin/pizza slice etc....test tube viles filled with multi-colored fat desposits...grotesque...not good for my arteries...I may have a few stents, so I dont want to blow my chance at keeping them clear...
I stopped saying the R word years ago - its more disrespectful to handicapped folks, when there are 'normal' people out there who truly are below them sometimes...but yeah I used to say that too when I was younger...

My daughter has Celiac. She was diagnosed when she was 3. She's 13, now. It's amazing how awful, and sparse, the gluten-free choices were in those early days and it's amazing how good they are, now. In our town, we can have gluten-free pizza delivered to our home from 3 different places and you'd be hard-pressed to tell the difference from the stuff with gluten.

Tried to make one last week and failed miserably. Think I need some Xantham gum, whatever the fuck that is. UK pizza delivery is shocking mate. My local sells pizza, burgers, curry, chips and kebab.. You know it isn't gonna taste like it should!

Yeah, Ben. Xanthan gum is they key because it's basically imitating what the gluten does, which is binding everything together. The texture is better. Maybe try different flours (or blends), as well.
We can get GF cakes for her birthday, made by a woman nearby, that are some of the best cakes I've ever had, gluten or no.

When I lived in London I couldn't even get pizza delivery until I went and introduced myself. Evidently I didn't live in the nicest area.
