Chuck E Cheese's

My daughter is gluten intolerant, and has been invited to a birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese's. She obviously cannot eat there and I will bring her food, but I was wondering if anyone has taken their Celiac child to this place? If so, did you think it was safe? I have this vision of little pizza covered hands smearing all over everything.

We went in the past. It was fine. Bring along some baby wipes to wipe her hands down before she eats anything. ... You'd be wise to do that anyway!

We go there about once a month, and never have a problem. I usually cook a gluten-free pizza, and freeze the slices. When we go there, I ask them to put it on some parchment paper, and run it through the oven. My daughter loves getting pizza warm and it always comes out crispy.

What kind of pizza do you make? Do you have a good recipe?

If you go on the Chucky cheese website, they list everyhting that contains gluten. From what they say, the french fries, buffalo wings, salad & dressings, and mozza sticks (i don't belive that for a second) are gluten-free.

No, no, and no!!!!!

Just because a restaurant lists items as gluten-free doesn't mean they are.

The kitchen has to be set up to prevent cross-contamination and the cooks should be trained accordingly. Remember, they probably use the same oil for the fries as they do their fried wheat products.

We bring our own gluten-free pizza and don't have to worry about the gluten.

I honestly don't think it's safe. Obviously, there's nothing to eat there, but all that gluten. Everywhere. I'm so thankful my DD was diagnosed after the era of Chuck E Cheese b-day parties because we never had to worry about it.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      I agree with @trents, but thank you for bringing this up here!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Hi @trents, yes I've had my levels checked in Dec 2025 which revealed vit D deficiency. I considered eggs although they only contain about 45 IU vitamin D/egg. I need 2000 IU vitamin D for maintenance as per my doctor. Although now, I likely need way more than that to treat the deficiency. My doctor has yet to advise me on dosing for deficiency. I've also considered cod liver oil, although again, if it's processed in a facility that has gluten, especially on flour form, I worried to test it, even if they have protocols in place to mitigate cross-contamination with gluten.

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Jane02! Have you had your serum D levels checked for deficiency/sufficiency? What about cod liver oil? Egg yolks can also be a good source of vitamin D.

      Hello, I'm very discouraged. I've been trying to find a safe vitamin mineral supplement brand for months and am tired of testing one after the other and experiencing my typical 'glutening' reactions. I'm really feeling the nutritional deficiencies set in. I'm doing the best I can to get these nutrients from my food, although it's impossible for me to intake enough vitamin D as I can't have dairy and have insufficient sun exposure in the northern hemisphere. I've tried B Complex from Country Life (certified gluten-free) - horrible reaction. I've tried Metagenics vitamin D tab (certified glute-free) - bad reaction. I've tried liquid vitamin D Thorne and D Drops - reactions were mild since I tried a drop of a drop. I understand there could be other things I'm reacting to in my diet, although my diet/intake is pretty consistent with minimal variables so I do think it's something in these supplements. I understand I could be reacting to the active ingredient vitamin/mineral itself or even the filler ingredients. I tried the vitamin D drops since the only filler ingredient is coconut oil, in some brands, which I know I can tolerate really well on its own - I cook with coconut oil frequently and have no 'glutening' reactions at all. Perhaps I'm reacting to the vitamin D itself, although I eat fatty fish every few days, an entire fillet with no 'glutening' reactions, which contains anywhere between 400-600 IU per fillet so I shouldn't be sensitive to vitamin D. All this to say, I'm desperately looking for at least a safe vitamin D supplement. Does anyone know of a safe vitamin D supplement brand? I'd love to know if there are any supplement brands that have absolutely no gluten (especially in flour form) in their facilities. I've heard of Kirkman having no grains in their facility - I may try this brand. Has anyone reacted to this brand?

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.
