I saw online that they have simple and fit vegetable omelette with a side of mixed fruit. It says it doesn't contain gluten or wheat. I want to try it but i want to know if anyone tried it. I don't think im cross-contaminate sensitive because my mother has made me gluten free food on the same griddle she use gluten containing food, and i didnt react. I think at first i was reacting because i had a lot of food sensitives.But now im better.

Just because you didn't react then, doesn't mean you won't now.

 

I wouldn't do it. I've heard that some chains add pancake batter to omelettes and such. Even then, the high risk of CC would not be worth it to me.

I have, while traveling and have not had a problem.  I do remind them that I need fresh eggs, nothing from a container or mix and not the omlette eggs with the batter in them.   Do I take a chance ABSOLUTLY, but I do that anytime I eat out.  

 

Eating out is like russian roulette, I ask the right questions and double check everything, but I still have no control over what happens behind those kitchen doors, or that the person is telling me the truth.   That is just my own experience.  

 

A month ago while traveling I ate the best gluten free pasta I have even had, but when I ordered it, it came out with breadcrumbs on top and had to be remade.   They knew it was gluten free becuase it was marked all over my slip (and the slip was even a different color) and the upcharge for the gluten-free pasta, but it still didn't stop someone from adding breadcrumbs.   So even a place with more awareness than others can make a mistake, thank goodness I caught it before I ate it.   

 

By the way, I eat breakfast out more often than other meals, and I have yet to find a place other than IHOP that adds batter to their omlettes, most of them look at me like I have three heads when I ask that question :mellow:

"Food sensitivities"? is not the same as celiac.

Do you have celiac disease??

 

Because if you have Celiac Disease, you should not risk cross contamination, no matter if 

"you do not react".  You are still sparking the inflammatory process in your gut.

 

As a celiac, I would never eat food made on the same griddle as gluten containing food. Never.

 

That's just unwise.

 

P.S. Hope this sounds "helpful" and not "scolding"  :) because that was not my intention.

My gluten-free husband was traveling and was talking to one of the chef's at one of the hotel chains.  While requesting gluten-free eggs (to be prepared in separate pan), the chef mentioned that the oils he was using had barley in them.  He reminded my husband to make sure future egg orders are fried in butter.  Who would have guessed?

No clue, but the chef actually showed the cooking oil package to my husband.

I wish I knew the name of that oil because that's a new one on me. (and kind of weird.Why would someone put barley in a pure cooking oil?)

 

That was just a rhetorical question, BTW. I often wonder aloud about the crazy things found in food items.  :D Just makes no sense to me.

I think eating at an IHOP if you have Celiac is far more of a Russian roulette than eating out at a high end restaurant that makes all their food from scratch and understand cc.  There are different levels of risk and I still have trouble understanding why anyone would eat at ANY fast food place if they are a diagnosed Celiac.  CC is guaranteed at places like that. The people employed there have zero food training and haven't even been to school for culinary arts....where they learn all about cc.  The only place I eat breakfast out are places that are 100% gluten-free...and there aren't too many of those.

Actually had a similar thing happen to me at a hotel.  Hubby was getting me some scrambled eggs and the chef asked if he wanted toast with that. Hubby said no, it was for his gluten free wife.  The chef said that I couldn't eat the eggs because the oil (or maybe it was butter) they cooked the eggs in had barley in it.  He got a clean pan and made some eggs without the gluten specially for me.  Luckily this chef had a nephew with Celiac and knew what he was talking about.

Interesting.... and since it is very expensive to extract, I am surprised that any restaurant would bother to use it.

Thought the above was funny.  It really doesn't do any of those things if you have Celiac.  In fact, it makes many of them worse.

I once had to leave my daughter with my mom for a little while, while I had a flat tire repaired.  Daughter was sick to her stomach at the time but now I can't remember why or if we even figured out why.  For many years she was sick to her stomach a lot. Although she doesn't have celiac, she had a gluten as well as a wheat intolerance.  And one of her symptoms if she ate it was getting sick to her stomach!  I came home to find the two of them fighting big time and daughter was in tears.  My mom was trying to feed her Saltines to settle her stomach.  Neither daughter nor I could get through to my mom that they would *not* settle her stomach!

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Medication

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the community! Generally, for a gluten challenge before celiac disease blood tests, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is considered safe and should not interfere with your antibody results. The medications you typically need to avoid are those like ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve) that can cause intestinal irritation, which could potentially complicate the interpretation of an endoscopy if you were to have one. However, it is absolutely crucial that you confirm this with either your gastroenterologist or your surgeon before your procedure. They know the specifics of your case and can give you the definitive green light, ensuring your surgery is comfortable and your celiac testing remains accurate. Best of luck with your surgery tomorrow

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      Thank you for the advice. I’ve actually never checked for nutritional deficiencies, but for as long as I can remember, I’ve always taken vitamin and mineral supplements — otherwise my symptoms get worse. This week I stopped eating gluten to confirm whether my symptoms are really caused by it. Starting next week, I’ll reintroduce gluten — it’s sad to go back to how I was before — but at least I’ll be able to take the necessary tests properly. I think the diagnostic process will be long, but at least I’m happy that I finally decided to address this doubt I’ve had for years.
