I've been working doing DoorDash for the last 4 months picking up and dropping off food.... It's amazing how much garbage people eat... but anyway   perfect job for a sick person I guess as I get to work my own hours, not physically demanding and makes pretty good money in my area....  Lots of restaurants along the Florida coastline and old people constantly ordering liquor from total whine giving me $30 tips  😂

but I once delivered a gluten free pizza to someone.. it made me wonder if they were celiac or just eating gluten free...    i wouldn't trust it though...

Another asian food place I was picking up food from offered me a menu... I told him I can't eat here because I can't eat gluten... he said we have a gluten free menu...   

no f'ing way I'd trust any of these places.

The gluten free pizza at pizza joints charger away to much for gluten free pizzas.. I found the found the frozen gluten free pizza ate better.. I miss eating Chinese food but I don't even do that anymore because of concerns of it being contaminated with gluten.. it's really hard to trust all this gluten free stuff out there cuz you don't know if it's been contaminated with gluten due to the factory it comes from. But I have eaten the gluten-free frozen pizzas and never had any issues with them I really like the cauliflower crust

Even with the burger salad at Burger King, do you know that they are not cooking the burger the same grill just used to cook some breaded thing?

And Arbys. Are the spices they use on the meat gluten-free?

You are taking macro precautions but overlooking potential sources of small amounts of gluten. I occasionally eat out at chains like you describe and take those macro precautions but only when I have no other options. I would strongly recommend you not do so by choice when there are other options like preparing food at home made from simple, fresh ingredients like fresh meat, fresh fruit and fresh or frozen vegies.

      Restaurants that offer gluten free no cross contamination

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Yes, I doubt you can find a perfectly safe restaurant--perhaps a dedicated gluten-free restaurant, but in general, very few of them exist, and they tend to be in larger cities. Super sensitive celiacs should probably just avoid eating out.

      Newly diagnosed and maybe some type of protein intolerance.

      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.

      Restaurants that offer gluten free no cross contamination

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Kenz! Eating out is the number one threat to anyone with celiac disease. The best advice I can give is "don't"! Especially if you are supersensitive. The biggest problem isn't avoiding gluten in what you order but in how it is prepared and handled back in the kitchen where cross contamination can and does happen at multiple stages before it gets to you. You would need to have conversations with the cooks and receive assurance that your food is cooked on clean surfaces and in clean pans and handled with clean utensils, separate from anything that contains gluten.

      Restaurants that offer gluten free no cross contamination

      By Kenz · Posted

      I am new to this and have severely struggled to find places I can eat where I will not get sick. I am super sensitive to any cross contamination and gluten. I throw up, use the bathroom, get disoriented, can’t walk, can’t even lift my arms, legs, or head. It’s honestly so scary when I come in contact with gluten. I do live in a town where there aren’t many options. I live in Gadsden al. So if anyone has any recommendations of places to eat that would be so helpful .
