Gluten free means avoiding all Wheat, Rye, Barley, Malt, and Oats.

Any bread that is served at a restaurant/fast food place is made from wheat (unless specifically stated not to). Nothing with bread at Quiznos is safe.

I don't know about the meat, etc. at Quiznos...however, even if ingredients are safe, you would need to be careful of cross contamination from all the gluten in the store.

Your best bet is the raspberry chipotle chicken salad WITHOUT the bread (don't let them put it on the salad or you will be eating gluten crumbs, which are enough to cause damage). I have been told that that dressing does not contain gluten and that the chicken was not marinated in soy sauce, but I have not seen the ingredients myself, so it doesn't hurt to double-check. You will have to ask at the store to see ingredients. Their website is no help whatsoever, it doesn't list ingredients.

Any bread or wrap that says "low carb" or "flat bread" STILL CONTAINS WHEAT. :( Bummer, isn't it?

As happygirl says, though, you do risk contamination.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
