Ok Guys,

Diagnosed, 10 days ago, im dying to get something in my stomach other then glutenfree/wheatfree snacks....

where the heck can i go, that I can eat out

I go to school on Long Island, in Suffolk, but my boyfriend lives in Nassau, so any kind of resturant options, would be glorious as well as fast food...

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)

Nantzie Collaborator

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!

CarlaB Enthusiast

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.

I dont know if anyone has listed this one yet.

Claim Jumper

Here's the link, but i dont know where you live, because they're only in Arizona, California, Illinois, Colorado, Nevada, & Washington. But they're opening up two in Oregon also.

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!

Just out of curiosity, why are you whey-free?

Mal Explorer

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?

hez Enthusiast

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.

Mal Explorer

hmmmm interesting....thankyyy <333 :D

Fiddle-Faddle Community Regular

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

Mal Explorer

no im fine with eggs and cheese, so maybe im missing something and chef is loosing it...lol im eating something with whey in it right now - - - so i guess we will see how it sits...

Aerin328 Apprentice

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!

I had on halloween a butterfinger mini and reese's mini peanut butter cups. I felt awful the next day. Major cramps and bloating. Are you sure they are Gluten Free?

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
new to LI Newbie

you aslo have jandi's in oceanside

rising tide in glen cove

trader joe's is also in plainview

the best in hicksville

ive been all over nassau in search for the best selection of gluten-free foods...

b well's has the largest selection of any store that i have been to.

fairway is getting better but it still is not there yet

jkmunchkin Rising Star

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.

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
