Rain Forest Cafe

Since my son was diagnosed we had tried to go back to the Rain Forest Cafe only once. We were told by the manager that there was simply nothing there for him to eat except for grilled chicken and I don't know how many little boys would want to eat just a piece of grilled chicken. So I figured I would try to investigate farther by e-mailing them and asking for some assistance in trying to find another gluten free option. So I e-mailed them once, no response. About 6 months later I tried again, again no response. This weekend my kids were upset that we don't ever go there anymore and I became very annoyed that they haven't contacted me back (it has now been a couple of months) so I sent another one and this time I let them have it for their rudeness. I told them that for an establishment that is geared for children it is very sad that they would not make an effort to accomodate a child with a special diet and to be so rude as to not respond at all. This is totally out of my character by the way. Today my phone rings and the caller ID says "Rain Forest Cafe". I was shocked and a little nervous since I yelled at them in my e-mail. The man was very nice, told me that the frys are made in a dedicated frier but we would have to ask for no seasoning. I told him that the manager on duty when we were there said there was bread crumbs in the hamburger. He said this is not true and they are 100% beef. He never did apologize about no one getting back to me but I was happy to hear that there are some options there. Thought I would pass it on.

I'm glad they got back to you. Sounds like they still need to work on their "special diets" info. It doesn't sound too consistent. I would still ask to speak to a manager when I went back to eat there (IF I went back).

      Hi all: I have had Celiac for 47 years. I have not seen much info on the following, and 3 of these  affect me. In case this info helps someone else, I offer the following: Gluten-like proteins is a topic I want to share, as they have added bad reactions to my Celiac condition.  Reactions can range from Gut discomfort such as Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting, and inflammation causing a feeling of being very warm to hot. The following are considered  Gluten-Mimicking Proteins: Corn (Zein protein) (this causes inflammation with me). Millet Panicin protein) Sorghum (Kafirin protein).  Potato (Patatin protein, is NOT considered a Gluten-Mimic, nor is Oats (Avenin) but they do cause reactions in some Celiac people... I eat potato and I vomit, and get diarrhea. gluten-free Oats causes me to have Nausea, and Corn causes me  Inflammation.  I hope this helps someone.  Wishing the very best to all.   Florence.

      I have been diagnosed with Refractory Celiac disease Type 2. Which is quite a shock because my Gastroenterologist has been performing gastroscopy & colonoscopy's - 4 in 2025 & a gastroscopy on the 20/3/26 and they didnot tell me how bad my Celiacs disease is and has been. It was my haematologist that checked more of my symptoms and came up with the result. So I am trying hard to get some nutrition into my body. All of this info on supplements and nutritional diets is very helpful.  Regards Margaret.

      Im very big on nateral remedies and just read that my go to herb is a no no and was wondering if factual or fiction. I read on Google, I know don't read or take to heart, however it stated that Echinacea isn't good for those with compromise autoimmune because it can cause inflammation. Has anyone else heard of this?Ive been battling sibo so wondering if any connection though haven't been religious on my vitamins these last several months because of testing ect.Sibo medications im allergic,the last few prescribed. Gi  dr dropped me but took me back.Im frustrated too but its the autoimmune part .

      Pardon me, I stand corrected.  I did find yet another blood test for thyroid function. TSH W/REFLEX TO FT4:  2.91 mIU/L  (Range: 0.40 - 4.50) As you can see, I was within the acceptable range when the test was performed.
