Football Goes Gluten Free

In preparation for going to the Ohio State Football game this Saturday, I was reviewing the stadium policies.   Previously I have brought my own food and cleared it through security.   I was completely surprised to read that the stadium is now providing a designated gluten free food cart.  

 

THIS is a great thing for celiacs and hopefully a trend for all sporting events.

That is great news.  Where I live we have two athletic stadiums that have gluten free offerings.  The baseball stadium has Bard's beer, gluten-free hot dog buns and bbq nachos that are to die for.  They also have salads and huge fruit cups, as well as standard stadium fare like cotton candy, ice cream and popcorn.  I spoke to the catering manager there and he was so friendly and helpful.  I haven't been to the basketball arena yet, but a friend was telling me they had a gluten free stand inside. 

 

On the down side, the arena that our local hockey team plays at has nothing gluten free except popcorn and cotton candy.  It is awful.  Everything there is fried and gluteny.  It's a heart attack waiting to happen.  I think the difference is that the baseball and basketball stadiums are located in an urban area and the hockey stadium is across the state lines in a more rural area. 

 

I think as more and more people eat healthier (not just gluten-free), more places will have to accomodate them with things like gluten-free foods, salads, etc.  I'm glad that you'll have some place to eat while you enjoy the game.

I might have to go out and buy an Ohio State hat today just because of this...  That's really awesome...

Hold off on that cap!  I looked for the cart where they said it would be, no cart and no one in the area had seen it.  I was really disappointed AND hungry :).

Oh no, I hope you had some backup snacks with you so you didn't starve.  That's disappointing.

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly...

      No I haven't had one since 2021. I rarely have more than 1 per week.

      Sorry, I see that now as I reread your original post. You say you have hemorrhoids "only once a week" now. When I develop hemorrhoids, which is once every few years now, it generally takes 3-4 days for healing to take place. So, it doesn't seem like you could have much relief time between episodes if you have them weekly. Have you had a lower GI scoping done...

      Everyday I eat a medium to large apple in the morning and a large banana at night. I eat a cup of oatmeal in the evening. The ezekiel wheat bread I eat has a good amount of fiber. I haven't dealt with constipation for at least a year. Most of the time my feces are soft.
