Hi,

My husband has celiac and in the town we live in we only have three places that he feels save to eat at, Wendys, Outback and Red Lobster. Well if you've been to Outback and like chicken, bacon and cheese try their ALICE SPRINGS CHICKEN. It is so good I also order it , it is on their regular menu and their Gluten Free menu. It is a chicken breast grilled topped with monterey jack cheese and bacon with mushrooms (we get it without the mushrooms) my husband gets garlic mashed potatos and I get a baked potato.

Good thing you get it without the mushrooms. The mushrooms are marinated in a seasoned butter that has gluten in it.

The meal with the mushrooms is gluten free. There is a member on this board who works at Outback and has verified this for us.

I love the Alice Springs Chicken and get it whenver I go to Outback. I have eaten the mushrooms with no ill effects and I am very sensitive.

Yes, the mushrooms that come with the Alice Springs Chicken are definitely glutenfree. I would notice it right away, too, cause I'm very sensitive.

:lol: That's funny, I always get the Alice Springs Chicken with the roasted garlic mashed potatoes, too. Oh, isn't that ever good!!! :lol:

I emailed them this morning just to be sure, as i said I always get the mushrooms. Every few months someone posts that they are not gluten free, I don't know why?

so lets see what outback has to say

I think the confusion arises from the fact that there are two different items served at Outback that are "mushrooms." If I have it correct, the ones served with the Alice Springs Chicken are gluten-free. But the separately orderable sauteed mushrooms (as a side to a steak) are not on the gluten-free list.

Correct!

If you want another really yummy treat from Outback order the crab dip from the appetizer menu and the chicken/bacon/swiss sandwich (no bun) from the burger menu. I order with brocolli. Then I dip the chicken and brocolli in the crab dip. It is REALLY good, very rich!!! I love it!!!

I finally called the Outback where they told me the mushrooms were not gluten free and talked with the manager. Very frustrating that the night we were there I kept telling them the Alice Springs Chicken mushrooms were o.k., but when I got my order it had no mushrooms. Told the waiter again that they are supposed to be o.k. who went and talked with the kitchen and they were the ones that kept insisting they had been fried in seasoned butter.

Talking with the manager just now he says the server and kitchen were confused and the Alice Springs Chicken mushrooms are not fried in the seasoned butter. I asked if there were any chance they would have been frying them in seasoned butter and he said no.

Hopefully this clears things up. The discrepancies seem to be coming from confusion with the kitchen staff or servers not understanding that some of the mushrooms are o.k. and some aren't. I honestly had them check like 3 times because I'd had it before just fine and they kept insisting they were not o.k. and I wasn't feeling up to taking it to a manager that night.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
