Their Anniversary Godiva cheesecake uses a flourless chocolate cake as a crust but i would not guarantee that it is gluten free.

Their corporate office told me it was gluten-free, but I think cc is a real issue. I'd go over to the cheesecake case and watch/direct them on how to serve you.

What do you all order for a main course ? I'd love to try the cheesecake factory sometime. I'm just nervous.

When I was there, the manager came to my table and we discussed what I could eat. I ended up having a pan fried salmon (or you could have it cooked on foil on the grill) with asparagus and mashed potatoes. I did not eat dessert ... I don't really have much of a sweet tooth.

This is the e-mail that I recieved from their corporate offices today.

Thank you for your interest in The Cheesecake Factory. Our goal is to provide

our guests

the best information possible.

Although we prepare dishes that we do not add wheat, oats, rye or barley, our

concern is

that some sub-ingredients may contain trace amounts of gluten. In addition, we

do not

have separate cooking equipment to prepare flour and no-flour based items.

We understand that sensitivities can vary. Our managers will be happy to help

you select

dishes that we do not add wheat, oats, rye or barley however, because your

health is our

primary concern, we recommend non-marinated vegetables, chicken, steak, shrimp

or

fish pan cooked as opposed to grilled.

The only cheesecake that does not contain wheat flour is our Godiva Cheesecake,

however, the pan release product we use on the pan does contain flour.

We appreciate you thinking of The Cheesecake Factory and hope that you will be

able to

join us for a wonderful meal.

Sincerely,

Keri Walsh

Guest Services Coordinator

So I guess the Godiva Cheesecake is out <_<

Ahh, they must be learning more each day about celiac. Months ago when I wrote them, they said it was fine! I never had it, however. If I'm having dessert it's going to be creme brulee, except that with my casein intolerance both cheesecake and creme brulee are out. That's okay, I'd rather a good bag of Natural Ruffles anyway.

Wow good to know, thanks. I had also been told that the Godiva Cheesecake was ok and a few times thought about running in to grab a piece to go but never did. Now I'm so glad I didn't. Good to know.

Dang, I love that place. Wish they were more gluten-free friendly. However, if you're really craving cheesecake, Jax Peters Lowell has a KILLER recipe that I am SOOOOOOO in love with! I'll have to post it in the recipe section, or check to see if anyone else has! TOtally satisfied my sweet tooth!!!

Hi does anyone know if the Chessecake factory uses a dedicated fryer for their fries?? I love fries and its soo hard going to restaurants b/c sometimes you want to have an occasional frie and they don't use a dedicate fryer. If anyone could tell me I would greatly appreciate it:)

Does anyone know about their shepherd's pie. I was told in the past that it was gluten free and did not get sick from it, but the last time that I went they said that it contained flour rather than corn starch, so it is not gluten free. I was wondering if anyone knows if they changed their recipe because this used to be a favorite of mine.

My husband and I are going out on a "date" tomorrow night, for the first time in a very LONG time.

We'd love to go out to dinner - ya know... no kids, conversation, good food! However, naturally... I'm terrified to eat out.

I've looked at CF's menu, and it looks like there could potentially be some items that would be gluten free.... but are they? I'm just wondering if anyone has ever had a good experience there, or is that someplace that you'd avoid like the plague??

I went there once when I was first diagnosed and although I had a good meal and didn't get sick I'm a bit to afraid to go there now that I know how easily things can have cross contamination. That place is always crazy busy and I just think the chance to get sick is way to high.

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
