Watch Out For Omelets

Someone had told me recently that many restaurants add flour to their omelets to make them more fluffy. Sure enough, recently my husband and I stopped at a IHOP for breakfast. They have a little line at the bottom of their omelet list that says that they add a little of their pancake batter to their omelets. I asked for an omelet without the batter. The waitress asked "You mean eggs in the shell?" I ordered my omelet with "eggs in the shell" and it was great (and didn't have shell). It looked just as fluffy as the one that my husband had.

Now I ask everywhere I go for breakfast if they add flour to their omelets. Mary

Thanks for the warning! I think it's ridiculous that they do that!!! Who needs flour in their eggs?! :unsure::lol:

I don't think many restaurants would add flour to their omelettes. IHOP does add pancake batter though.

I know that some places add the batter, which is scary. I know Perkins does not, and I have asked every time I eat there.

Isn't is amazing that companies pay money to buy unnecessary ingredients to add to a product which then eliminates hundreds of thousands of what would have been paying customers?

It's just incredible how they don't get it that they could save money by not adding that stuff and make money by attracting more customers!

Sheesh.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
