I am traveling from Texas to Chesapeake, VA. This may be a long shot, but can anyone give me any direction/ideas for a good place to shop/restaurants to go to?

Thank you!

Karen

Hey Karen,

I live out here. And the grocery store list on that site is good, but those restaurants...most of them won't have a clue what you are talking about if you walk in and ask for a Gluten Free menu. Be prepared to take one in with you that you have printed off the web. I recommend just doing the ones we all know. There are several Outbacks, a PF Changs, Cheeseburger in Paradise, and I have had good luck with Unos in Norfolk...oh, and Nawab.

If you can grocery shop as far as Williamsburg, Ukrops is the best. They have potato salad, cucumber salads, tuna salads in their deli area that are all clearly marked gluten free. Otherwise most (not all) Farm Fresh and Kroger stores have a good section of gluten-free foods. And by the way, Farm Fresh carries Redbridge in their cold beer section.

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
