To all of the gf influencers (🤢) out there promoting Atly… and there are A LOT of you… STOP. You are doing harm to the celiac community.
There is a pizza place by me called Pete & Elda’s. I know they do not have gluten-free pizza, but I called just to make sure. Confirmed. No GF pizza.
But when I Google “does pete and elda’s offer gluten free pizza”, guess what comes up on the first page of the search results?
Yep…Atly. I click the link and it brings me to the image you up top.
See all those red X’s. Each one is a bullshit claim by Atly.
From top to bottom:
❎ They don’t accommodate gluten-free.
❎ This is actually a description of a completely different coffee shop in Asbury Park.
❎ That 327 seems to be a totally random number as it constantly goes up and down from minute to minute.
❎ There is ALL risk of cross-contamination since they don’t carry GF pizza.
❎ Obviously not a dedicated GF place (and neither is the coffee shop I mentioned above)
❎ Trained staff? On what?
❎ CHECKED BY ATLY!
These are all concerning, but it’s the last one is the one that should really bother you. They obviously did not check it.
Which means their claim that they have vetted over 218,000 restaurants is a lie.
Will this bother you enough to stop promoting them? What is your conscience telling you?

Dude Note: I know, I know…they are a competitor of my app and I should not call them out. But my priority has always been to do right by the celiac community. Yes…it gets me in trouble sometimes. No…I won’t stop. 😉
