Any gluten-free/df Smoothies At Fast Food Places?

It seems that more places are getting smoothies lately. Does anybody know if any of them are gluten and dairy free?

Hmmm....looking like McDonald's ones would be okay if made without yogurt.

I know most are gluten-free but not sure if any are dairy free. I think places like Smoothie King can make them df. Not sure if that is in many places.

TCBY makes some with sorbet, maybe check those?

WHole Foods makes smoothies and some are just fruits blended up. Or fruits and kale ( that's the one my son likes ). It's a gross color. Lol

Edit: Open Original Shared Link. The light ones seem to be gluten-free & df

And a smoothie would be very unlikely to get CC'ed, correct?

I suppose it depends on the place. Like Smoothie King - most are gluten-free. WFs would probably use a clean blender if you mentioned. I think I might try Orange Julius because none of them seem to have gluten. Some have dairy - but usually dairy free people can take an accidental drop or two of cc.

All of McDonald's ones are gluten free, so that seems like a safe bet. I live in a rural area, so I don't have a lot of restaurant choices. I will have to look up some of those other restaurants and become familiar with them though for when we travel.

 

Whole Foods is a good 2 hour drive away.

But those have milk.... Sound good for me. I do milk! :)

They have milk, but from my reading it sounds like they will make them without yogurt on request. :)

 

And I don't have an severe milk allergy, I'm just dairy free, because it seems to bother my sinuses, so if it gets slightly CC'ed with dairy, it's no biggie.

I stopped at McDonald's and got 2 large smoothies today and asked for extra cups, so I could divide them among me and the 3 kids. They were so good! It's nice to have some convenient items like this.

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.

      My genetic test results have arrived - I’m homozygous for DQB1*02, meaning I have HLA-DQ2. I’ve read that this is one of the genes most strongly associated with celiac disease, and my symptoms are very clear. I’m relieved that the results finally arrived, as I was getting quite worried since my symptoms have been getting worse. Next step, blood test. What do these results imply? What should I tell my family? I’m concerned that this genetic predisposition might also affect other family members.

      Two months. In extreme situations like this where it’s clearly a smoking gun? I’m in LA so went to a very big hospital for pcp and gi and nutritionist

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.
