I just e-mailed them a little while ago to see if any of their soups are gluten-free (and will ofcourse post the response when I get it); but does anyone happen to have any info.

I'm starving, and craving hot soup for lunch.

Last week I was in Hale & Hearty Soups in NYC. I spoke to the manager and he told me to look at the card on the back of each soup which lists ingredients. I had the white bean with spinach because all of the ingredients looked fine. I also think the tomato with rice was OK. I look forward to seeing what the company reply is.

P.S.

Ruby Foo's restaurant (Bway & 70's) has a gluten free menu. I ate there and apparently the cook's mom has celiac.

OMG seriously, Ruby Foo's has a gluten-free menu!! That's hysterical. I work about a block or so from there. To be honest working in Times Square (or NY in general) we make fun of all those places but sometimes you just have to give in. I smell a group lunch at RF tomorrow!! LOL!

I haven't heard back from H&H yet but will post when (if) I do.

I'd love to hear which Hale & Hearty soups are gluten-free too! And I'd love to hear about experiences eating out at Ruby Foo's. (I too work in the Times Square area.)

Keep us posted, please!

Ok so here's the response from Hale & Hearty. While Andrew was very polite he doesn't seem to know much about what we can and can't eat.

Response from Hale & Hearty Soups

Thanks for your email. I checked with our chef and although I cannot guarantee which soups do or do not contain gluten, I can tell you which soups would have specifically wheat, barley, rye or oats. As for wheat, I think flour would be the main issue and the only soups that contains white flour are our gumbos. We do use corn flour in some soups (typically soups that also contain corn) and I believe any soup with pasta should be avoided. There are also a number of soups that contain corn starch, which I do not know if it is a problem. As for barley, soups that contain barley are labeled as such (wild mushroom barley, chicken barley, etc.) Lastly, rye and oats are not specific products we use in any of our soups, although I guess it is possible that some ingredient could contain them. You can always ask a server for the list of ingredients in any of our soups. I hope that was helpful. Thanks again.

wow, you guys, that sounds great! I live in NYC too, and have enjoyed their soups. Plus, I never had a reaction (or one that I am aware of).

speaking of food and restaurants, have you tried Peters?????? I found this place and LOVE it. Theres a gluten-free Menu. I have had their pancakes, and I eat the chicken cutlet parmisan (Not the correct spelling, forgive me!) with pasta, sauce and garlic bread. Amazing. I eat there regularly with my fiance and he eats off the gluten-free menu too and loves it. The owner knows us.

Any other good places in NYC?

I've been meaning to try Peter's but haven't made it there yet. I've been to Risotteria a few times, which is awesome. A few of us are meeting there next Friday, Dec. 9th after work around 6:00. You should join us.

I know Sambuca has a gluten-free menu and I actually loved that place before finding out I had celiac disease so that's another one I've been wanting to get to.

Check out this link for restaurants that have gluten-free menus.

I find most places to be really accomodating.

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      The Happy Tart review

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      The Happy Tart review

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

      Nausea

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the forum. Is the nausea associated with eating certain foods, or anything else in particular?  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months.
