I think this is the primo health food store on Long Island. I don't know if you have a WholeFoods, Henry's, Jimbos, Trader Joes..... Google them. My friend goes to Wild by Nature and says they have loads of gluten free foods.

:) Welcome to Long Island. I shop at Trader Joe's in Merrick, there is also one in Oceanside. You can also go to Fairway in Plainview, they have a larger selection there. There is also Wholefoods in Manhasset.

Cafe Baldo is a Gluten free restaurant and they make gluten free pizza. They are in Wantagh

Hope this helps.

I actually live in Westchester, but DH is from LI and a lot of my friends live there so I am there pretty often. The absolute best restaurant with a gluten-free menu ever is Mama's in Oakdale. I drive like 1 1/2 to go there, that's how good it is!!! They have chicken parm, mozzarella sticks, baked clams... every normal Italian dish you could want and it taste AMAZING!!

Also, Earth Remedies in Wantagh has TONS of gluten-free products, including the most incredible rainbow cookies you will ever have. They have a lot of stuff that you can't normally find in like Whole Foods too, like Glutino bagels, Ener-G sesame pretzels, Namaste cake mix, etc.

I went to the PF Chang's in Westbury a couple months ago and wasn't that comfortable there. They seemed to be a bit clueless. THe one by me in White Plains is much better.

Yes, everyone pretty much got them all...

but also in Plainview (down the block from Fairway, wich is the best!).. B-Well Naturally... I LOVE this store! they have SO many gluten-free items.. it's a whole foods store, and they even sell gluten-free baked ziti, Lasagna (both w/meat and w/out)... that they make there! their chicken salad is WONDERFUl also!!

They also carry the HARD TO FIND new George's gluten-free Pizza! It's expensive for such a little pizza, but it's SOOOOOOO good!

I basically shop btw Fairway and B-Well I hit one, then the other... they're both on Manetto HIll Road.

There is also a Trader Joe's right by there on S.Oyster Bay Road, and a New Whole Foods, on Rt. 107 in Jerricho, but I have found that not much gluten-free stuff is there, and it's very pricy!

If you live in Suffolk, Wild by Nature (like someone said above) is Awesome as well!

Earth Remedies in Wantagh is really good too! Definately as jkmunchkin said, the cookies are AWESOME! also about PF Changs, they wree totally clueless in the Westbury one... BUT , Outback in Westbury is AWESOME! (also in Merrick)

      Hey @suek54, I also have Dermatitis Herpetiformis. I used to be on Dapsone but have managed to wean myself off it after many attempts. It's quiet a toxic drug, as it affects the bone marrow and red blood cells. It also artificially reduces Hemoglobin A1C. Mine was at 21 at one stage, I think normal is around 37. With dermatitis herpetiformis, you need to be really strict. It wasn't until I focused on getting the trace minerals the body needs that I managed to get off it. I believe getting the thyroid numbers in the optimal range also helped with Iodine and Selenium. Iodine doesn't bother me for some reason, but flares others as knitty kitty said. I take Viridian Trace Mineral complex and it's made a huge difference, among other vitamins and minerals. Now I can tolerate gluten free oats which I could never eat before. Though I only have them very occasionally in the form of gluten free soda bread . One thing I miss is my Mums Irish soda bread. Hope this helps.

      Hi all Biopsy confirmed dermatitis herpetiformis. Strict gluten free diet going OK, I cook nearly everything from scratch anyway and am finding gluten free  adaptations for most recipes.  I seem to be tolerating 50mg Dapsone well, regular blood tests OK so far.  Next derma appt in 8 weeks. I have some continuing itching and rash outbreaks, though nowhere near as severe as they were, so I am hoping for an increased dose, as the effect only seems to last 6-7 hours.  I think I may be burning through it more quickly than some due to other medication. Also I cannot mount a response to inflammation due to Addison's Disease.  I hope others are finding their way though the minefield that is dermatitis herpetiformis. Hang on in there! Sue (in UK)

      @KeriRae, have you been diagnosed with celiac disease or with dermatitis herpetiformis?
    • KeriRae
      I've had this same rash on my back on and off for the last year or two.  I was taking LDN to help with other issues but quit awhile back. I'm wondering if LDN would help with this rash.
