Debbie, there are several bed and breakfasts that can accomodate a gluten free diet. I think there are two in the Lancaster area. One is in Lititz, which is just a few miles north of Lancaster, very cute little town. I can dig up the contact information if you like.

As far as restaurants, Lancaster has an Outback and a Carraba's as well as a halfway knowledgeable Chili's. Our Outback serves gluten free beer (Bard's Tale) too!!! I've heard that Willow Valley's one restaurant can do a gluten free meal, but I've never tried them. I called Gibraltar's in Lancaster near F&M a while back, they said they can absolutely do a gluten free meal. Its fine dining. You may want to call a few days ahead of time to confirm they can still do a gluten free meal. I've also heard that the Dutch Apple Dinner Theater can accomodate a gluten free diet, but I"m not sure how much I'd trust that. Take it for what its worth.

For gluten free shopping, hit Stauffer's of Kissel Hill in Lititz and Giant in Lititz. They're both south of Lititz, so they're only a few minutes from Lancaster. There are also a few health food stores around here, but they're all horribly overpriced.

Have fun in Lancaster!

I know this is a tough one, but what about gluten-free breakfast in restaurant in Lancaster? (other than at a B&B).

Sure, let me know names of those B&B's that can go gluten-free....

Thanks

Open Original Shared Link - double check on the gluten status of this one. I recall it as being gluten free, but couldn't find it on their website. Either way its a beautiful area just a few miles from my house. The scenery is amazing and they also own a wolf sanctuary. How cool.

For gluten free breakfast, good luck!!! Try calling Willow Valley and see what they could do for you. Other than that, McDonalds is your best bet if you don't want to cook for yourself. The McDonalds in Lititz is very good about changing their gloves and such if you ask.

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Hi I've been told I need a MRI on my bowels , I was booked for a colonoscopy, but because of my sever back issues and trapped nerve it can't be done , the nurse told me I will have to have a manitol drink a hour before the scan , I'm just a bit worried has I have issues with sweeteners like even a little,  I get a weird throat and ears and I've read it is a similar substance , not sure if anyone has had one of these scans or could give me some advise on the drink prep thanks in advance 😄

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
