Actually good question....

I don't know what goes into the waterproof coating on paper plates but I wouldn't be that surprised if it did contain gluten. Sometimes it just seems like the world is out to get us.... I think you would be OK but I can't promise!

there are no stupid questions... I get the plain ol paper plates that aren't coated in anything, and haven't had any problems, but you can always contact the manufacturer if you have doubts.

they are probably fine, but like I said... just contact the mfr. if you are in doubt... sure they may think you are silly, but you have a valid question and if they don't know the answer, you don't want to use their product...

why am I awake at this time of night????

Well, since we're asking silly questions, how about those little lube/ lotion/ moisture strips on razor blades??

I'm being serious.

Great - what about stryofoam? I know the bad stuff about the environment, but sometimes when camping, it is just easier.

Corn, gluten, soy? Are they really safe when they get hot for those of use with multiple food intolerances? Maybe I get my own plate and everyone else uses disposable--we have to wash the pots anyway.

I believe the coating on paper plates comes from corn.

That is kind of what I thought, after I saw this thread and it explains why I ended up sick over the weekend camping. I had forgotten!!! Stupid mistakes are going to be what kill me...

Polystyrene foam plates do not contain gluten, I worked at a factory that makes plates for hefty and several store chains for 3 years and my husband has worked there for 10 years. They are fine.

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
