I Ate Lunch At Wendy's

Hi, today at work we had lunch from Wendy's. I ordered the ultimate chicken grill with no bun with sauce and tomato and lettuce. I had a baked potato with nothing on it, cause I can't do dairy, plus a diet coke.

I had lunch through Subways a couple weeks ago not even thinking of the cross-contamination issues, so I think I did much better eating from Wendy;s.

It sounds like what you ordered is safe, but I personally steer clear of fast food restaurants. They are just too busy and their staff is usually not trained on gluten-free food prep. Having had experience at working for McDonalds when I was in high school, I've seen the level of competence working behind the counter, and it is scary!

Wendy's is probably a little safer than Subway just because they don't bake fresh bread on site so they don't have flour floating around in the air like Subway. It's still a relatively risky place to eat. Though, I must admit, I don't think I've ever been glutened at a Wendy's.

but i just wanted to ask the person above me about your picture....

it looks really tasty...just wondering if you made it yourself? and if so could i maybe have the recipe? i haven't had a real waffle in ages....

Sure thing! I posted the recipe here a few weeks ago. Open Original Shared Link Enjoy! I topped mine with blueberries and GV brand whipped cream. I believe Reddi Whip is gluten free as well. Any fruit would work. I like the canned stuff that's already sweetened, though unsweetened fruit is probably much better for you. I'm sure any fruit would work.

Angie,

Those waffles do look yummy! Do you have a hard time keeping them on the table?

Let's just say there are never many leftovers. Luckily, I make the waffles the day before I'm planning on serving them, and then I freeze them. A batch makes 10 waffles. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't get a bite because I'm always the last to eat when I cook breakfast. :)

(i don't know if i spelled that right) i don't know exactly what makes them different than regular waffles.... thanks again!! :D

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
