Hi, new to this great forum. Actually, quiet new to US....

We are planning a family ski trip and looking for somebody who has been in Colorado or Vermont areas to see if they can recommend some places that are taking care of gluten free diet .

Our daughter is following a strict diet and we are thinking to go with our own food from here .

Thank you very much and apologies if this was already covered .

If you google "gluten free vacations" you will see quite a lot of options. Good luck.

A set of in-laws live in Stowe, VT and I find it very easy to find gluten-free good there. Not to mention the awesome skiing! It's a very interesting town with a European feel. There are quite a few local restaurants with chefs that can accomodate a gluten-free diet with notice. My MIL says the Stowe Meadows Inn offers gluten free fare.

The two times I went to Whistler last year (it's in driving distance), I stayed at a place with a kitchen and cooked my own meals. (I even brought a couple pans. :P ) That worked wonderfully, though there were a few places I could find food by talking with the people (like sushi).

My family does a lot of skiing and the best place I've found is Smugglers Notch in VT (www.smuggs.com). The resort is very celiac friendly. There's a small market in the resort itself that carries gluten free items and a convenience store about five minutes away that also carries a few items. All the condos in the resort have kitchens so you can cook your own food, if you want. One of the restaurants inside the resort, Hearth and Candle, doesn't have a gluten free menu, per se, but the staff is extremely knowledgeable and accommodating and I've eaten there countless times with absolutely no problems whatsoever. There are a few restaurants about 30-45 min away, in Stowe, also that are celiac friendly. I've never been to Red Basil but, supposedly, it is gluten free friendly. I have eaten at Ye Old English Inn - again, they don't have a gluten free menu, but they are very knowledgeable and accomodating and I've never had a problem there. Also, I've been to Stowe Meadows Inn - just a warning, it's extremely expensive and, since it is really at B&B, you can only eat there if there isn't someone staying that night in the Inn. However, the couple that owns the B&B is very nice and the Inn itself is absolutely gorgeous. It's about 10 minutes or so outside of Stowe.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      I agree with @trents, but thank you for bringing this up here!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Hi @trents, yes I've had my levels checked in Dec 2025 which revealed vit D deficiency. I considered eggs although they only contain about 45 IU vitamin D/egg. I need 2000 IU vitamin D for maintenance as per my doctor. Although now, I likely need way more than that to treat the deficiency. My doctor has yet to advise me on dosing for deficiency. I've also considered cod liver oil, although again, if it's processed in a facility that has gluten, especially on flour form, I worried to test it, even if they have protocols in place to mitigate cross-contamination with gluten.

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Jane02! Have you had your serum D levels checked for deficiency/sufficiency? What about cod liver oil? Egg yolks can also be a good source of vitamin D.

      Hello, I'm very discouraged. I've been trying to find a safe vitamin mineral supplement brand for months and am tired of testing one after the other and experiencing my typical 'glutening' reactions. I'm really feeling the nutritional deficiencies set in. I'm doing the best I can to get these nutrients from my food, although it's impossible for me to intake enough vitamin D as I can't have dairy and have insufficient sun exposure in the northern hemisphere. I've tried B Complex from Country Life (certified gluten-free) - horrible reaction. I've tried Metagenics vitamin D tab (certified glute-free) - bad reaction. I've tried liquid vitamin D Thorne and D Drops - reactions were mild since I tried a drop of a drop. I understand there could be other things I'm reacting to in my diet, although my diet/intake is pretty consistent with minimal variables so I do think it's something in these supplements. I understand I could be reacting to the active ingredient vitamin/mineral itself or even the filler ingredients. I tried the vitamin D drops since the only filler ingredient is coconut oil, in some brands, which I know I can tolerate really well on its own - I cook with coconut oil frequently and have no 'glutening' reactions at all. Perhaps I'm reacting to the vitamin D itself, although I eat fatty fish every few days, an entire fillet with no 'glutening' reactions, which contains anywhere between 400-600 IU per fillet so I shouldn't be sensitive to vitamin D. All this to say, I'm desperately looking for at least a safe vitamin D supplement. Does anyone know of a safe vitamin D supplement brand? I'd love to know if there are any supplement brands that have absolutely no gluten (especially in flour form) in their facilities. I've heard of Kirkman having no grains in their facility - I may try this brand. Has anyone reacted to this brand?

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.
