I have a sneaking suspicion that they're not, but needed to ask anyways. Does anybody know ?

I called Friday's they say it is gluten free. Suprising answer I thought. Call your local and see if they give you the same answer.

Even if it is gluten free I'd be hesitant about going to TGI Fridays.

I'm a big advocate of still eating out, and not still enjoying this part of my life, but I also think this means making smart decisions and reassesing some of the places I "can" eat out at.

Fridays just seems like the type of place that is to risky. I have to assume the majority of their food is prepared and a huge risk for cross contamination.

Personally, I wouldn't risk eating there.

Really ? In what way ? I'm new to all of this, so I'm curious about what makes you think this.

I asked the TGIF's in St. Louis, MO and they brought out the recipe. There is a small amount of flour in the sauce. Sorry to blow the bubble. They were very nice here and let me look at the recipe book for anything I ordered and promised to not cross contiminate what I ordered. Never have had a problem here.

:D

Like with many places, it kind of depends on which place it is--managment, etc. Although I know have other food issues, when I was "just" (haha) gluten free, I would not eat there. I had other options that were knowledeable and chose to go elsewhere. Cross contamination is a huge issue for me, as well as people who have no idea how serious it is....so it is a personal decision that each person has to make.

I think the risk of cross contamination is way to high in a place like TGI Fridays.

      Doctors and Celiac.com

      Thank you for the kind words!

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      The rate of damage to the villous lining of the SB and the corresponding loss of nutrient absorbing efficiency varies tremendously from celiac to celiac. Yes, probably is dose dependent if, by dose dependent you mean the amount of exposure to gluten. But damage rates and level of sensitivity also seem to depend on the genetic profile. Those with both genes...

      Have Tru Joy Sweets Choco Chews been discontinued??

      Help! My 5 year old daughter just stopped eating dairy and gluten due to her EoE and Celiac. Her favorite candy in the world is tootsie rolls. I did some research, and it sounds like these are the only options for finding something similar, but I can't find them anywhere to actually purchase. Have they been discontinued?? Does anyone have another recommendation...

      Thank you for the kind words! I keep thinking that things in the medical community are improving, but a shocking number of people still post here who have already discovered gluten is their issue, and their doctors ordered a blood test and/or endoscopy for celiac disease, yet never mentioned that the protocol for such screening requires them to be eating gluten daily for weeks beforehand. Many have already gone gluten-free during their pre-screening period, thus their test results end up false negative, leaving them confused and sometimes untreated. It is sad that so few doctors attended your workshops, but it doesn't surprise me. It seems like the protocols for any type of screening should just pop up on their computer screens whenever any type of medical test is ordered, not just for celiac disease--such basic technological solutions could actually educate those in the medical community over time.

      The rate of damage to the villous lining of the SB and the corresponding loss of nutrient absorbing efficiency varies tremendously from celiac to celiac. Yes, probably is dose dependent if, by dose dependent you mean the amount of exposure to gluten. But damage rates and level of sensitivity also seem to depend on the genetic profile. Those with both genes HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8 seem to be more sensitive to minor amounts of gluten exposure than those with just one of those genes and those with only DQ2 seem to be more sensitive than those with only DQ8. But there are probably many factors that influence the damage rate to the villi as well as intensity of reaction to exposure. There is still a lot we don't know. One of the gray areas is in regard to those who are "silent" celiacs, i.e. those who seem to be asymptomatic or whose symptoms are so minor that they don't garner attention. When they get a small exposure (such as happens in cross contamination) and have no symptoms does that equate to no inflammation? We don't necessarily know. The "sensitive" celiac knows without a doubt, however, when they get exposure from cross contamination and the helps them know better what food products to avoid.
