Is Backyard Burgers gluten aware??? Do you have a problem there at all?? There is a new one within my "regular" shopping area, so I will try it if it is okay. Let me know!! :)

Well gald you asked, cause now that i think about it Ive not eaten there since going gluten-free myself, but I normaly get there "Low Carb" burger (no bun). I love thier burgers, but the rest of thier food is average for a Fast food place. Usally get 2 of the burgers and a diet soft drink when there. Thier web site says nothing about alergens though. Hmmm this will bear more looking into.

Deb,

My understanding is that Frosty's are gluten free.

Wendy's removed them from the gluten-free foods on their website as they were researching the origin of the malt in the Frosty.

Recently, they placed the Frosty back on the ok list as they determined the source of the malt was corn.

p.s. I will double check....

I have eaten McDonalds fries at the store near my school a couple of times with no reaction. I double checked with the workers that only fries (and hashbrowns i suppose) would go in that fryer. To be honest, I don't trust just that. BUT the fryer for chicken,etc. was on the other side of the room so that was enough to satisfy me that things were not being cross contaminated. I would check that the two fryers are quite separated at every store you go to, just to be sure.

      I was tested back in 2017 and my TTG-IGA was mildly elevated (an 11 with reference range <4) but my EMA was negative and biopsy was negative. Fast forward to 2 weeks ago where I was like y'know what, I still have so many symptoms and I'm always so sick, I should repeat this, thinking it was not going to be positive.  I also found out through 23 and me that I do have the HLA-DQ2.5 gene so I thought it would be good to repeat given my ongoing symptoms. Well my blood work came back with a ttg-iga level of 152.6 with a reference range of <15 and my EMA was positive and EMA titer was 1:10 with reference range of <1:5. I guess I'm nervous that I'm going to do the biopsy and it's going to be negative again, especially since I also had an endoscopy in 2020, not to look for celiac but just as a regular 5 year thing I do because of all my GI issues, and they didn't see anything then either. I have no idea how long the EMA has been positive but I'm wondering if it's very recent, if the biopsy will show damage and if so, if they'll say well the biopsy is the gold standard so it's not celiac? I of course am doing all the things to convince myself that it isn't real. Do a lot of people go through this? I think because back in 2017 my ttg-iga was elevated but not a huge amount and my EMA was negative and my biopsy was negative, I keep thinking this time it's going to be different. But this time my ttg-iga is 152.6 with reference range <15, and my EMA was positive. BUT, my titer is only 1:10 and I keep reading how most people here had a ttg-iga in the hundreds or thousands, and the EMA titer was much higher. So now I am convinced that it was a false positive and when they do the biopsy it'll be negative.

      Welcome to the forum, @linnylou73! Are you claiming this based on a reaction or based upon actual testing?

      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.
