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.

      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.

      By Jane02 · Posted

      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.
