Wendys - frosty, chili, some of the salads. Meat patties (burger without the bun) Caution here - I watch like a hawk at wendys cause more than once , I saw them take the meat off the bun to put it in a tray. I just say : excuse me but it needs to be right off the grill otherwise my son/daughter will get violently ill.

comfort foods - corn chips with melted cheese and salsa to dip

ask chef at restaurants if they are knowledgable about gluten free - and what they can offer you that is not cross contaminated etc.

chocolate, glorious choclate - caramilk, jersey milk, crispy crunch (at least in Canada)

Don't know about the restaurants. Other than PF Changs and Outback, who both have gluten-free menus.

Here's some mainstream snacks though

Cool Ranch Doritos.

Cheetos

Lays Stax

Fritos

Reese's PB Cups

M&M's (all but the crispy kind I believe)

Butterfinger's

None of the crispy rice chocolate bars are gluten-free in the US (they add barley malt). Might have to go to Canada to get some...

Outback Steakhouse, PF Changs, and even some Old Spaghetti Factories have gluten free menus. Outback's Chocolate Thunder from Down Under is a flourless brownie . . . so you can eat that!

Good luck!

Okay, so I just realized that Nantzie posted this information right before I did. Sorry! I skimmed her post too fast!

Bonefish Grill, Cheeseburger in Paradise, Maggiano's, Carrabas can also accomodate gluten-free.

Grilled chicken salad at Chick-fil-a -- without the croutons and without the sunflower seeds, but you can use the tortilla stips. Their waffles fries are also okay.

If you ever go into the city, there are some great options. One of our favs when we visit is Rissoteria in the Village. Gluten Free Pizza & breadsticks!

see thats funny u asked, i was just asking my mother the same question today, my chef here at school had said something about it, but I think i can have it, i have to call my doctor!

does anyone have any problems with whey?

I do not have any problems with whey. Whey is dairy so if you are avoiding dairy (many people do especially when starting the gluten-free diet) you will have to watch out for it. However, if you are just talking about gluten, whey is gluten-free.

Seems to me you you would either need to avoid ALL dairy--or none. Or am I missing something?

Many celiacs are also intolerant to casein, the protein found in cow's milk (and in whey). (Enterolab automatically checks casein at the same time in their full celiac panel - www.enterolab.com )

Awesome restaraunt is Outback Steakhouse (mentioned above as well) - it's expensive but they have a gluten-free menu that tastes great!

Oh okay! We have Baldo's here in the bay area of CA. But the name is just Baldo's. I think its family owned here too, but they have all over Northern CA, so I thought maybe they put one in NY! lol. :P

:) You can also go to Trader Joe's in Merrick and Oceanside. Fairway in Plainview is the best for gluten-free food shopping. Wholefoods in Manhasset is also good. I would watch out for Cafe Baldo in Wantagh I got sick after eating there. Good Luck

I just saw this thread.

Mama's in Oakdale is AMAZING!!!!! There are a few Mama's in Suffolk, but it's the one not affiliated with the others. You can get the address off the GFRAP website.

B Well in Plainview has a lot of good products that you won't find everywhere else.

Sweet Karma bakery in East Meadow that sells bagels and english muffins from a woman, Joan. They are the most incredible bagels. This is one of my favorite products.

This is not on Long Island, but my favorite bread for sandwiches is from a place in Chester, NY (up by Woodbury Commons) called the Gluten Free Bread Basket. You can order from their website and they will ship.

      need help understanding testing result for Naked Nutrition Creatine please

      Hi, I bought Naked Nutrition Creatine. It lists itself as gluten free but is not certified. (It used to be, but they dropped it in the past year or two apparently.)

      When I was still recovering my gastroenterologist suggested I bought lactofree product as I was very bloated.

I came off dairy completely next and it worked like a charm...

I wrote the company and asked them what testing results they had for creatine and they sent me the attached, which says the test result for gluten is <0.025MCG. I'm used to seeing test results as ppm, so I'm not sure what <0.025MCG means. Can it be converted to ppm easily? I want to confirm that it is safe to use.

      When I was still recovering my gastroenterologist suggested I bought lactofree product as I was very bloated.  So I bought some from the supermarket and from memory, I drank a nice big glass of milk - and it went right through me literally within an hour or so, if my memory serves correctly.  I came off dairy completely next and it worked like a charm, but started to reintroduce quite gradually it as I missed it! To this day, if I overdo dairy products, they work like a mild laxative.  I've never wanted to give up milk completely as I like it so much, and my mum had osteoporosis and it's an easy way of getting calcium.  But it doesn't really 'sit' well with me.   You may need to experiment a bit as when I was healing certain dairy products were worse than others - I could cope with one brand of Greek yoghurt, but I got extremely and painfully bloated with another brand of live British yoghurt.

      i have been strictly gluten free for 7 months. this includes avoiding anything that may contain gluten and making sure surfaces and appliances are clean. i am 18 years old in australia and my tTG-IgA results were 69U/mL, pretty low compared to most people's, for reference. i feel the exact same as before. sure, i was pretty much asymptomatic/silent. the worst i'd get was occasionally bad stools and pitting of the nails/brittle hair since early childhood - and i was diagnosed with low iron and vitamin d which checks out due to easy bruising and such. but those symptoms have remained. maybe i'm jumping the gun, sure. i know it can take years to fully heal. but being over half a year in, i feel that i should be, y'know, healing. i'm nearly at my wits end and wondering if i should have a piece of bread or something to see how i go - to see if i possibly have refractory? my mental health is declining as i feel myself wanting to bang my head against a damn wall out of frustration every day. cravings haven't gotten better. look, i love the stuff i still can have, like salads and such. OH! i haven't lost any weight, which is mind boggling considering i eat very healthily now! i've always been on the chubbier side which is atypical of coeliac. i just don't know what's going on with me. i try to remain hopeful but i'm just so sad all the time. thanks for reading

If you must use a PPI, I certainly would advise taking the lowest dose that is effective for you.
