Montauk, Ny

We go to Montauk every year for 4th of July with DH's family and I was a tad bit nervous because this was the 1st year I am there gluten-free. It wasn't the easiest, but I brought blueberry muffins from Whole Foods for breakfast and some apples with peanut butter that I could snack on in the room if I got hungry; and I happy to report I got through the long weekend without getting sick.

But the real reason I wanted to post is, if anyone goes there, there was 1 restaurant that was so great and accomodating and just really went out of their way to be nice to me that I wanted to let everyone know.

It's called MTK (like those black and white stickers you see for different cities - MTK obviously standing for Montauk). I explained to them my restrictions and everyone from the hostess, to the waitress was so nice - double checking everything for me, smiling no matter how stupid my question might have seemed to them. As I was leaving the hostess even stopped me to ask if everything was ok. They were just so sweet and helpful and in a town where this is their busiest season I thought it was so great that they really took the time to help me.

The restaurant is in town a few stores down from Whites as if you were going in the direction of Gossman's.

Next time you head out that way, check out Green Earth Grocery in Riverhead. This store has almost 300 gluten-free items to choose from. The best selection in Suffolk county.

      Alcohol

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      That "gut ache" after drinking may be more than alcohol not agreeing with a gut that's trying to heal. Alcohol prevents absorption of vitamins, and actually breaks thiamine Vitamin B 1 so it cannot function.  Thiamine deficiency can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi, with symptoms of digestive upsets and abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, anorexia, and can cause neurological problems and problems with thinking and judgement.  I've experienced Gastrointestinal Beriberi myself.  Thiamine supplementation is a must, along with the other B vitamins and Vitamin C.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi and Wernicke's Encephalopathy Triggered by One Session of Heavy Drinking https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31543793/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6739701/

      Yeah I think my body is definitely telling me to lay off the alcohol I just don’t seem to agree with it right now but that might be because my gut is still trying to heal.

      Searching for the source - anyone have problems with Crunchmaster crackers?

      By Mettedkny · Posted

      Thank you so much for your validation. I completely agree with you that the crackers COULD be the culprit even with very small trace amounts (less than 20ppm) and accumulating over time - I am at the point where I am about to request that my son gets retested to make sure that my "control subject" is still testing perfectly lol. I have a meeting with my celiac disease doc tomorrow and will run the crackers by him to see if he is willing to retest in a few weeks. I have not had any of them for the past 3 weeks so far, so fingers crossed, we can retest and hopefully find out if it is them. And no - I have been scouring EVERYTHING to make sure nothing else has changed. Only use gluten-free lip products and toothpaste so not there either (but very good suggestion). Thank you for validating me. I feel like many are just saying "you are not being gluten-free enough - but I do have a perfect 16 year track record that proves otherwise - so has to be something sneaky.

      OMG thank you so much for validating me in my "craziness" of being on the hunt for the culprit in my case. "Unfortunately" I do not eat any of the foods you mention, but have stopped eating the crackers that are labeled certified gluten-free to see if they might be the problem. I did NOT know about chicken being injected with gluten liquid - that is horrible!  Hoping my doc will agree to retest after I have been off the crackers for a while. My biggest mystery is - why do I not have ANY symptoms of being cross contaminated or glutened? There is no damage (thank godness) to my villi, and normally I will get canker sores the moment something is even the slightest bit cross contaminated... the hunt continues and I will follow up once I find the answer. Glad you found yours!
