I tried looking on the web site but can't find any info other than they do have a gluten free menu. Does anybody know what is on that menu?

I am going tomorrow.

Thanks,

Ok I found the restaurant guide and all the info on Olive Garden but does anybody know if the parmasan cheese they add to the salad is safe?

I had very good luck at Olive Garden. I had to find a place for the family to get together after our children's baptism, so I ran in and asked the manager early that day when they first opened. She came out and talked to me and knew exactly what I was needing. She went back to her desk and pulled up the latest gluten-free menu for them and brought it back out. My son and I had no problems. My son had the Tuscan Tbone and I had salmon. I don't remember all the other choices, but there were a few.

I love their salad and don't have a problem with it...they are really good about accomodating me. Haven't had anything else yet.

Olive Garden will subsitute plain rice for any pasta entree. At our Olive Garden, they use cream for there thickener for most sauces, but you have to make sure you ask someone in charge.

The weird thing is, at our olive garden, you have to tell them that they have rice. The waitress that we got the other day was like, "this is a itallian resturaunt, we dont serve rice" I told her, "Your manager said that yall have it in the kitchen. If you tell them that I have a wheat allergy, they will make sure that they use rice and dont contaminate it." She looked at me like I was crazy and said, "Ok, well Ill check on that. If they dont have rice, would you like to have spaghetti and with noodles?" Seriously...some people worry me. I had to go find my friend that works there and have him explain it to her! Then I asked her for salad with no crutons, and she came and said, "Here is your salad with extra crutons. Enjoy"

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes and goes randomly as before again.
