Disney Rocks!

Just got back from vacation at DisneyWorld and man, did they ever live up to everyone's praises on this board!!!

Liberty Tree tavern at the Magic Kingdom is an absolute must. Chef Al came out and talked to me and brought my meal out himself. I could't have any of the deserts on the menu, but he made a chocolate brownie-cake special with raspberry icing and ice cream. It was fresh out of the oven when he brought it out and smelled so good, my non-celiac dinner mates were drooling over it! It took a little extra time to cook my turkey dinner, as he made the gravy with corn starch special from scratch, so the manager gave us free fast passes for the rides the rest of the day!

The Brown Derby @ MGM had quite a bit to offer also, and the chef came out and talked to me there as well. They're a bit pricey, but like my wife said, better to spend a few dollars extra and be safe with something you can enjoy.

Counter service was not a problem as all the cashiers have ingredient books with them, and will call the manager or chef if their is any questions.

All in all an awesome time, I even gained a couple pounds( I'm an extremely hard gainer) despite walking what seemed like 8 miles everyday B)

Chef Al is emailing me the chocolate brownie recipe, will post when I get it.

And last but not least, Guhlia, I promised to give Mickey a hug for you, mission accomplished :D . My daughter's high school was marching in the parade and he came around and greeted all of us before the parade started.

We LOVE Disney. I asked the one chef if I could move into the actual park and have them cook for me everyday!! We are going again in October. The 6th thru the 13th. We own a house down there, so we are free to go whenever we want.. its wonderful! The house is rented out the rest of the year, but we usually get our pick of weeks, so I cook breakfast and such gluten free at home and in any of the parks I eat safely lunch, never ever even a rumbly tumbly.. and dinner, I either cook at home, or we stay in the parks.. and of couse, safe safe safe.. its great!

I just got back from a Disney trip with my high school band. I was a little nervous about the trip, having gone gluten free just a month ago. However, it was easier to eat gluten free there than at home. We had a nice meal at the Brown Derby at MGM, and not only did they make me a tapioca dinner roll (first bread product in a month-it was delicious), but they gave me the phone number of where to order the rolls. It was great.

      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

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      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".

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood t...

      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.
