I am going on a 4 day trip to Pa. and thought I would pack all my food for the trip. I usually stock up on fruit and veggies there. I am just starting to plan all this. My first trip with food. I'll be traveling by car through Maryland, Delaware and thought I would just cook everything and take some coolers. The hotel will have a ref. and microwave. I usually don't use a microwave-trying to save the enzimes. No whole foods here but I'll also shop at the health food store. Thanks, LindaLee

I think someone said the rotisiere chicken was. Not sure what else.

I buy the big tub of hommus they sell for like $4.75. Great with crackers or veggies and travels better than something dairy. I think it was spinach artichoke flavor. My dad buys the big packs of dried meat sticks they have in the cooler by their lunchmeats. I haven't checked their gluten status, but if they're gluten-free they'd travel nicely. Get sliced lunchmeats and cheeses and make up a container of meat and cheese roll-ups (I got turkey there that said gluten free on the package and I love their Muenster cheese). Very easy to eat in the car. Big bag of almonds or some other nuts, Boost shakes, fruit snacks, trail mix. Can you guys tell I basically live in the car??

For cook and take food I like to do mostaccioli or penne type noodles with a tomato and meat sauce. I reheats well and is filling. You could make up some kind of rice with chicken and veggies in it. Or sausage and sauerkraut. Think things that will be "one bowl" meals. I think they have Stagg chili at Costco.

Sounds good. What trail mix do you buy? I want to try to make one if I can't find one gluten-free. Thanks for all the help. Do you buy the rotisterie chicken? LL

Actually, I usually get Harmony brand trail mix from Meijer because that's closer to me than Costco. I think Costco has their own brand of trail mixes and dried fruit blends. I've never had a problem with their trail mixes. Sorry I can't remember the name.

Is Meijer a grocery store? I'm in Va.

You can get Mrs Mays products, such as the almond clusters, at Costco.

Nevermind, I just read the post that said these are no longer gluten-free. So, don't buy these.

Went to Costco last night... They do have some gluten-free stuff there, but not a ton. They have some naturally gluten-free tortilla chips and I bought a 6 pack of Thai Kitchen micro meals. Also...there are assorted nuts that are gluten-free.

My Costco has Pacific foods organic chicken broth, but right now I have a Sam's membership, so I don't go in there much unless I sneak in to look around and get a hot dog :ph34r:

Yeah, Meijer is kind of like Walmart. It was founded in MI. I don't know how far outside MI it extends.

I was so excited when I saw that in there. I use it all the time. Wow, we can eat the hot dogs? I know you get it without the bun but can you eat all the condiments there? I used to always get the yogurt. I just make sure I am full before I go in that place.

I don't know if we can eat the hotdogs or not, I'm on a gluten challenge for my biopsy. Something tells me that they're nathan's though, and not gluten-free. Sorry for not mentioning that :unsure:

Be carefully with tortilla chips, sometimes wheat flour is added for consistency :unsure:

I called Costco and the Santa Barbara Salsa -Deli style is gluten-free. She said all her salsa's are gluten-free. Costco also carries the Mango and itsGF. They have a lot of others they sell at Food Lion(Roasted Garlic )Their web site is www.sbsalsa.com. They have recipes too. This was a returned call to me from Santa Barbara. Costco is going to let me know about the hot dogs and yogurt. LLee :)

where in Pa are you going to be? There are several nice gluten-free stores around but I would need to know where you will be to tell if any would be fairly close to you. You can pm me with your destination and I'll give you places if they are close.....

I pked up some of the broth too--yum. Great deal. This wouldn't be for travel per se, but they also have (can't remember the brand), Taquitos that are labeled Kirkland but made by a name brand. They don't contain gluten. Can anyone remember the brand name?

Be careful of any canned chicken to make chicken salad. I don't remember what brand it is specifically at my Costco, but there is wheat starch listed as an ingredient.

It has been soooo nice since packaging changed and they have to list main allergens at the bottom of ingredients! I frequently eat Costco's hot whole chickens and highly recommend them. They are gluten-free. I put them on top of their bulk salad greens. I haven't found anything off their cafe list I can have, if anyone finds out anything is OK please post it. Their is a dry salami (maybe Gallo?) I have also used on the road traveling. I have noticed that each Costco depending on it's location sometimes carrys local items that you cannot find in other Costcos in different states.

Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was...

      Celiac Disease and Longevity: Can Treatment and Healing Improve Long-Term Survival?

      Thanks for the prompt reply. Interesting that blood test could be caused by other things. I am sure Dr Fincher will get to the bottom of it. I know he ate nowhere near that amt of gluten before the endoscope. Always interested in any new info abt celiac. U can not trust what is said on fb- That would be a piece of bread a day. He didn't even make that...

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was sent.I have email copies.I did one zoom call with np with team member from celiac specialist in Nov 2025 and she asked me why I wanted to know why I wanted the celiac diagnosis so bad, I sad I don't, its my life and I need revalidaion because its affecting me.KB stated well it shows you are.I asked then why am I going through all this.I was labeled unruly. Its been a celiac circus and medical has caused anxiety and depression no fault to my own other than being born with bad genetics. How is it legal for medical professionals to gaslight patients that are with an ailment coming for help to be downplayed? KB put in my records that she personally spent 120min with me and I think the zoom call was discussing celiac 80 min ONE ZOOM call.SHE is responsible for not explaining to my pcp about celiac disease am I right?

Its alarming these places are popping up in airports as well.I just saw on the news that the airport ( can't remember which  one)was going to have a fabulous smelling bakery. Not for sensitive celiacs, this can alter their health during their travel which isn't safe. More awareness really NEEDS to be promoted, so much more than just a food consumption!FYI I did write to Stanislaus to let them know my thoughts on the medical field not knowing much about celiac and how it affects one.I also did message my gi the 3 specialist names that was given on previous post on questions on celiac. I pray its not on deaf door.
