Panago Gluten-Free Pizza
Finally! A large chain with delivery has a decent option for us gluten intolerants. They do warn, and you'll see from the sticker on the delivery box, that the environment where the pizza is made contains gluten i.e. the gf pizzas are made alongside normal ones. So, if you're very sensitive or celiac then it probably won't work for you, but I've had it many times now and with no adverse side effects.
There's only one size choice for gluten-free crusts, but no complaints here on that. Sure, it's still the typical non-traditional square shape for gluten-free pizza that seems to have become the standard identifier, but the 12" medium size is totally satisfying. I mean, come on, which box of gluten-free pizza from a national chain would you rather open... the one below, or this one from Boston Pizza?? There's a toonie beside each pizza so you can get an idea of the sizes of pie - and I see a clear winner. This Panago gluten-free pizza tastes good too, and isn't too high-priced for what you get compared to elsewhere. Recommended!
Gluten-Free Pizza in Vancouver!
In my continuing quest to find satisfying and tasty gluten-free pizza in Vancouver, I have found a new favourite in Vancouver's West End called Mainly Organics. There's none of this 'using gf crusts from other manufacturers' stuff at this place because they make their own gluten-free crusts. This also allows for the added bonus of getting a gf crust in any substantial size (not just measly "personal size" crusts like other places offer... see my Boston Pizza review). Below is Mainly Organics' pizza vs a $2 coin; now that's a substantial size, and it's their smallest size offered to boot! It's really good, I'm a regular customer. There's even free delivery if your order is over $20.

Gluten-Free Challenge: Boston Pizza vs Me-n-Ed’s Pizza Parlor
I'm on a mission to find a restaurant that makes a satisfying gluten-free pizza. I recently tried Boston Pizza's gluten-free pizza and was left hungry.
A local chain called Me-n-Ed's Pizza now offers gluten-free pizza as well. They say that a large part of a meal is devoured by the eyes, so visual impact of what's on your plate is important. I was pleased opening the Me-n-Ed's box and seeing this:
A round and normal-looking pizza with some substance to it! It looked good..... it also tasted good. Note that it's the flatbread-type of crust though, so granted Boston Pizza's gluten-free crust offers a thicker and softer bite. Judging by looks alone though, one establishment definitely gets my thumbs-up over the other (side-by-side comparison below). About $3 more for Me-n-Ed's definitely was worth it and felt good in my full stomach.
