Yummy. Taco Del Mar. I searched thier site, they have a whole Gluten Free page explaining what to not eat, what is gluten-free. Wonderful.

www.tacodelmar.com/food/gluten.html

Except I was still getting sick! SO, I started eliminating things from the Baja bowl that I get, which really should have no gluten according to the site. I think I have put my finger on it, its the RICE! and perhaps the sour cream which can have modified food starch.

It has a coating on it, that they say is not glutened but I beg to differ. So the Baja bowl with beans, lettuce, salsa, tomatoes is very good:)

Anyone else have any experience?

This is a couple years too late, but here is the problem with Taco Del Mar for anyone else who looks this up. They have plenty of items that are gluten free which is great. The problem is that they scoop these items up with the serving spoons, spread them all over FLOUR tortillas and then put the spoons back into the containers. Cross contamination like crazy. That makes none of it safe. Maybe if you waited outside for thier store to open and you were the first customer of the day. That might work.

We have not had a problem with them. But I can see how cross contamination could happen.

      Flour 1to1 Mixes never ending lol

      This was one I tried w/o issues using gluten-free flour. It gets confusing the 121 cup for cup. Especially the price of it. But I love using the make your own mixes of gluten-free flours potato starch such as this to make it go further https://theloopywhisk.com/2021/09/23/homemade-gluten-free-flour-blend/ Heres a recipe stating 1:1 https://chefalina.com/gluten...

      Flour 1to1 Mixes never ending lol

      That's an idea. I have found good chocolate chip recipes that mimic tates cookies or other chocolate chip cookies with gluten-free for without an issue. I have seen recipes from chef Alina looping whisk etc that have gluten-free flour but they are trial and error. I guess I will have to mix and match. I made my own flour using flax meal corn flour potato...

      Gluten free flours can be very different, even from one manufacturer. For example, King Arthur has two certified gluten free flours that act quite differently in some recipes. I find that it is best to use the recipes on the website of the manufacturer of the flour, although I often bake for a shorter time than listed. I like this recipe for chocolate...

      Are you supplementing any vitamins?  Recently added medications? the ones that helped me the most noticibly was increasing vitamin D blood level to 80 ng/ml and Iodine to 500 mcg once or twice a day, Thiamine, Choline, and Iodine, B6 speeds up gastric motility, gastric motility, which is the movement of food through the stomach, is primarily achieved through peristalsis. Moving food faster helps bloating. 10,000 IU vitamin D 500 mg Thiamine or more Choline  brain fog, fat digestion.  Since the recommended reduction in red meat and eggs, experts estimate that only 10% of the population eats the minimum RDA., 500 mg.  Choline is a large percentage of bile.  Many Celiacs are first diagnosed as Gall Bladder surgery candidates.  It works for a while, fut the the symptoms come back. Iodine – 600 to 1200 mcg of Liquid Iodine Vitamin B2 helps break down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. It plays a vital role in maintaining the body's energy supply.  500 mg Pantothenic Acid vitamin B5 Low fat yogurt.  My favorite brand is Stonyfield.  Pasture fed means an omega 6:3 ratio of 1:1.  Comercial dairies feed grains and have omega 6:3 ratio  of 5:1.  Omega 3 is healing, omega 6 is inflammatory. No fat yogurts, including greek style has various gums added to replicate the fatty mouth feel, and these gums like guar gum can have several side effects, especially if low vitamin B6 causes poor gastric emptying. Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids in Vegetables  Eating more of the vegetables low in omega six and high omega 3 can reduce inflammation. The American diet is fortified.  Gluten free foods are not.

I have found good sandwich bread at Whole Foods called 365 which is under $4 for a regular loaf you won't realize its gluten-free or the Promise bread brand. Making your own sandwich bread seems like a bunch that break apart etc. Eventually I will have to try one.
