you can buy them on amazon .com - just type in Triumph dining in the search and they will come up. I haven't bought mine yet (waiting to order with a few other things), but I've heard they are wonderful.

Love, love, love my Triumph Dining Cards!!! It really does help the restaurant staff to understand our situation and it is so much easier to have them read the card and say a few words about it then it is to try to explain it all without the cards. I ordered my cards and the dining guide right from their website and got it pretty quickly.

Good luck! :)

Thanks! I'm assuming they are specific to anyone with Celiac or Gluten problems, not just for adults. I wanted to order them for when we're out with my 3 year-old.

Yep, I have them too, and they're quite useful. I find, more than anything else, they help break the "I'm a busy server and don't want to listen to everything you have to say" or the "I can't remember everything you just said" barriers. It's a fabulous convenience device, and one that I'd prefer not to do without ever again! ;-)

I love them because it gives the server and chef something to look at, and it saves me time because I don't have to go as in-depth with my verbal explanation.

I just had a great Triumph experience last night. I was at a sushi restaurant which is famous for its appetizers and crazy sashimi concotions. I showed up with my triumph cards and my packets of gluten-free soy sauce.

The server took the card back to the chef, and they volunteered to make one of thier appetizers in a clean pan with my soy sauce. It was amazing, and so dellicious. I never leave home without them.

Love them, but I would recommend you make copies of them to give to waiters. We had a dingbat waiter who misplaced the card for some time before finally finding it. Karen

Thanks for the info on the Tirumph Dining Cards. I just got them in the mail yesterday. The rest. guide is awesome! We're in NJ on the PA border, so there's quite a few rest. that offer gluten-free menus that aren't that far from our house. This will certianly make going out with our little guy easier. I was thrilled to see that Charlie Brown's has gluten-free ice-cream! The only thing that's gonna be tough is the french fry thing. No one lists them as gluten-free b/c of non-dedicated friers...such is life! However, we have a Wendy's down the road from us! What a tremendous help this guide will be. Thanks again!

PS- I found a rest. down in the Outer Banks, from the rest guide, that isn't gluten-free, but will make (or at least attempt! :)) a gluten-free meal for him; we're going there at the end of June. There's also a vegetarian take-out rest. on the Outer Banks that does tons of gluten-free stuff without risk of cc that I found via the internet. I spoke to the owner a couple of days ago; he was very helpful and completely understood Zachary's dietary needs. :)

I am going to get those cards. Where are the places in the outer banks? I go down there to visit. The Outback there gave me croutons on my salad.. Thanks, LLee

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
