Hershey, Pa Tips?

We are planning a 2-3 day trip to the Hershey area, and I'm wondering if there are any "safe" eating spots both in the park or in the surrounding area. We're probably going to hit the Botanical Gardens, the amusement park and maybe Indian Echo Caverns. Just a brief getaway.

Thanks!

The Hotel Hershey (up on the hill) has a gluten free menu!!! I actually live here. PM me if you want to get in touch I can give you all the other hints to the area.

In Hersheypark there's a Kosher Food Mart that has a small gluten free menu. It's not much, but it's better than nothing. You may want to call the park ahead of time to see if they'll let you bring your own food in since you hae dietary restrictions. I know that Dutch Wonderland will (they're owned by Hershey), so it's worth a try.

I am so siked!!! I was scrolling down to 'gluten-free travel' to post questions about Hershey Park (and the Outer Banks)!! We're staying at the Hershey Lodge but can certainly eat at Hotel Hershey. Awesome!!! :D:D

PS-I just called 1800 HERSHEY and went with the dining prompt. When explaining my needs to the customer service rep prior to being transferred to the chef, she told me that the resort would be able to meet his needs without risk of cc. The executive chef for the resort just left me a message to discuss my son's dietary needs. I missed the call, but he's calling back later. I'll let you know the out come.

Hi, I will also be traveling to the Hershey and Lancaster PA area this summer with my family. Can you suggest any safe places to eat outside of Hershey? I will be staying at Willow Valley in Lancaster. I would appreciate any help. Thank you.

      I'm 67 and have been celiac for 17yrs. I had cataract surgery and they put a gluten lens in my eye. Through a lot of research, I found out about MMA acrylic...it contains gluten. It took 6 months for me to find a DR that would remove it and replace it with a gluten-free lens . I have lost some vision in that eye because of it . I also go to a prosthodontist instead of a regular dentist because they are specialized. He has made me a night guard and a few retainers with no issues... where my regular dentist didn't care. I have really bad reactions to gluten and I'm extremely sensitive, even to CC. I have done so much research on gluten-free issues because of these Drs that just don't care. Gluten is in almost everything shampoo, lotion, food, spices, acrylic, medication even communion wafers! All of my Drs know and believe me I remind them often.... welcome to my world!

      If this applies geographically, in the U.K., physicians will often declare a diagnosis of celiac disease based on the TTG-IGA antibody blood test alone if the score is 10x normal or greater, which your score is. There is very little chance the endoscopy/biopsy will contradict the antibody blood test.

      TTG IgA reference range 0.0 to 14.9 KU/L

      What was the reference range for that test? Each lab uses different reference ranges so a raw score like that makes it difficult to comment on. But it looks like a rather large number.

      I have had the tTG-IgA blood test my result are >250.0  I am waiting for the appointment with the gastroenterologist for endoscopy and biopsies.    what are the chances it’s not coeliacs.  waiting and not knowing is so hard. Especially the eating of gluten knowing it may be causing you more harm and coping with the symptoms.
