So ofcourse I took it upon myself to call In n' Out Burger just now. The woman at customer service said they are a slow growing company but they do infact have plans to expand to the East Coast. She couldn't really give me a time fram... but atleast this means that in my lifetime we will have an In n' Out Burger - LOL!!

Hmmmmm,

Double-Double-With Cheese-Protein Style (No sauce, no grilled onions)

French Fries

Always a winner!

They are a slow growth company because they are family owned and VERY particular about who gets thier franchise, which is awesome because it keeps the quality up. Also very religious, I am always tickled by the proverbs on the cups when I'm drinking a shake.

I hope they keep expanding, because they rock, but I hope they stick to thier standards as well. McD's was a family owned small burger chain once upon a time.

Think I can coax them up to Canada? :unsure::( Sounds like an awesome alternative to McD's....... Maybe they would trust their family business to celiacs who know how important it is to keep up quality control.....

Actually I think this is the reason they are slow to expand; they want to do it right. Because I made a joke saying and when they come here can they make sure to bring the protein burger with them. She said that all their items and practices come with the additions :)

Does In/Out have a website?

Do they have a reliable gluten-free menu?

In/Out was singled out in the book "Fast Food Nation" for being a good fast food franchise on many levels -- the beef isn't frozen, they treat their workers really well etc. It's not just the Celiacs who sing its praises. Lots of people who are simply health conscious in general love it.

Also, the protein burger is actually a popular item on their menu. A lot of non-celiac friends of mine who live on the West Coast and are "doing atkins" get it all the time. It's nice to know that they probably won't take it off the menu because it's profitable...and not just a "favor" they are doing for the celiac community.

Anything other than thier basic things are not on thier menu, you just have to know how to order. They are VERY serious about thier food. They also do a "grilled cheese" for vegetarians ( obviously not gluten-free, they use a bun), its not on thier menu, but they're cook it away from a meat area if you ask. They don't make anything that could cross-contaminate thier fries, no breaded foods of any kind other than thier buns. When I order I do ask for a clean grill away from the buns, they have a grill in the back that they leave open for special orders I have watched them every time and they are very careful. No offense to anyone in the fast food industry, but the people that work there tend to be a bit more attentive and on the ball than your standard fast food place.

Its not fast food, its In-N-Out.

My friend works at In & Out here in L.A.

When i told her that i got diagnosed with celiac disease, she responded, "we learned about that at work." I think that they go out of their way to keep their employees informed about food allergies and special orders.

Oh and another tip, if you want crispy fries, order them "well done"

They can't actually take the protein style "off" the menu; it's just their standard burger wrapped in lettuce instead of a bun. All of their burgers come with lettuce and tomato so they will always have lettuce on the premises.

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
