Hey, guys, My name is Bonnie and I'm 19. I just got started on this forum and omg is it confusing. Anyway, I live in Chicago and I just wanted to meet celiacs my age from my area or throughout the country. I've been diagnosed for 8 years, went to camp celiac in RI for two years, and I just attended the CSA conference in Virginia last weekend where I helped out with their new teen program. Someone from there suggested that I get started on this and post a message. I would have a picture, but for some reason it said i wasn't able to post a personal picture. Anyway, feel free to reply and talk to me. (maybe you can help me out on how to use this message board). :D

Hi, I'm Jackie and I'm fourteen years old. I'm a bit younger than most people here, but I like it. It's pretty easy to figure out, don't worry.

Hi Bonnie!

My name is Monica, and I'm 21. The board is a lot less intimidating once you get used to it (kinda like celiac disease itself). It's nice to "meet" you, and feel free to message me.

      Is Cracker Barrel`s gluten-free menu safe for kids with celiac disease?

      This kind of question is always difficult to give a definitive answer to because of so many variables. One such variable is the sensitivity of the individual celiac to small amounts of gluten cross contamination. An amount that causes a reaction in one celiac many not in another, or at least not be discernable which, of course, does not exactly equate to...

      Is Cracker Barrel`s gluten-free menu safe for kids with celiac disease?

      I see that Cracker Barrel restaurants have a gluten free menu (not all locations, but one confirmed that they do). I was wondering if it is safe for my 5 year old son with celiac disease?
