I fear that I already know the answer to this question.

But you know the cheese dip they serve at Mexican restaurants? The stuff they so cleverly call "queso?" Does anyone happen to know if, by some miracle of the heavens, this queso is gluten free?

I usually eat the queso and feel fine other than the whole milk thing. I know that don pablos has queso on their gluten-free menu!

Yay!!!! Don Pablos has a gluten-free menu!!!!! I can't wait!

You can make your own queso at home. Brown some sausage, if you want it. Put in a can of tomatoes with chilis and some Velveeta. Yummy. Hmmm, I'm assuming Velveeta is gluten-free, seems I heard it was, but double check! I believe Kraft makes it, so you can just check the label.

The thing I'd be more worried about is if they make their own chips in a dedicated fyer.

I think to be safe you'd have to check with the chef. Traditionally it doesn't have gluten in it, but restaurants do a lot of odd things to keep foods stable longer that can get us into trouble.

Mmm...I'd be nothing without cheese.

My mom used to make this cheese dip when I was little that was melted velveeta with ground beef and salsa mixed in. Delish!

I should bring back some of those delicious fat-filled recipes while I can still rationalize gluten as an excuse!

You have to ask the chef to be sure. Some queso has chili in it, and some chili has gluten in it.

And Velveeta is Gluten Free. YUM!

      New labs are now very elevated

      Hello, I was very stick, with flu like symptoms, but my virus panel came back negative and we couldn’t figure out what’s going on. The doctor then added a celiac panel.

      Is Cracker Barrel`s gluten-free menu safe for kids with celiac disease?

      This kind of question is always difficult to give a definitive answer to because of so many variables. One such variable is the sensitivity of the individual celiac to small amounts of gluten cross contamination. An amount that causes a reaction in one celiac many not in another, or at least not be discernable which, of course, does not exactly equate to...

      I see that Cracker Barrel restaurants have a gluten free menu (not all locations, but one confirmed that they do). I was wondering if it is safe for my 5 year old son with celiac disease?
