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!!

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.

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
