Can anyone give me a report on myrtle beach as far as eating out & any good bakeries or large gluten-free stores around?

I'll be there in June 08... anything I shouldn't miss out on while there?

thanks

Hi...

I was in Myrtle Beach two years ago and I did have good luck during the week finding places to eat.

There is a Bonefish Grill, Cheeseburger in Paradise and a Carabbas, and they all have gluten free menus.

I REALLY enjoyed Bonefish Grill.

I would stay away from any of the mom and pop restaurants and buffets. I never had much luck there.

Also, there are a couple bigger grocery stores (i.e. Food Lion) which do carry some gluten free items. I brought most of mine from home though.

Feel free to let me know if you have any more questions.

Myrtle Beach is great. You will have a good time!

Melissa

Did you go to Myrtle Beach? Eat out anywhere? We are going next week. Last year when we went to margaritaville they had a gluten free menu but I called to make sure they still had it and they dont.

If you can eat seafood...go to the mom and pop seafood places...They're willing to work with you in every way. Depending on where you're staying, I've eaten out in places in Murrells Inlet and Pawleys Island. There's a Carrabba's and always Chick-Fil-A. Cheeseburger in Paradise is in Myrtle Beach as well as Sticky Fingers that offer gluten-free choices, as long as you ask to speak to a manager at any place, they're usually very good about it. I usually stick to straight seafood because they rarely mess that up.

Also, all of the Food Lion's and Lowe's Food have organic/gluten free sections in their stores so you have items that you can purchase if you don't feel comfortable eating out.

Hope this helps.

      confirmed via biopsy, quite depressed

      By cristiana · Posted

      We've definitely all had such thoughts.  But as Scott says, it does get easier with time.  I'm not sure where you are posting from but in England where I live, over the last ten years or so most things I missed at first now have gluten free substitutes.   I still miss Twix bars, and chocolate Penguins (a type of biscuit) but I'm hoping sooner or later someone will create a decent substitute for them! One thing that I remember my husband said to me when I was feeling down one day  was: "Why don't you try to think of all the things you can still eat, rather than the things you can't?"  The list is long, and it did help - sort of!

      Quaker Instant Grits, gluten-free?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It looks like they are naturally gluten-free, but not labeled gluten-free. https://www.quakeroats.com/products/hot-cereals/grits/instant-grits-plain

      I’m so sorry you’re feeling this way—your emotions are completely valid. A celiac diagnosis, especially at your age, is a huge adjustment, and it’s okay to grieve the foods and conveniences you’ve lost. Even with a supportive partner (which is wonderful!), the mental toll is real. Many of us have been there, staring longingly at ‘forbidden’ foods while feeling isolated or frustrated. It does get easier with time, though. The initial shock fades, gluten-free substitutes become more familiar, and you’ll find new favorites. But please be gentle with yourself now. If the sadness feels overwhelming, talking to a therapist or joining a celiac support group (online or in-person) might help. You’re not alone in this—we’ve all had those ‘why me?’ moments. Sending hugs (and solidarity) your way.

      Waiting on biopsy after positive bloodwork, but also not really believing this is real

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Gluten-Free Drinks

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While some radlers are made with gluten-free beer, many traditionally contain wheat-based beer, so it’s definitely good you double-checked. It’s surprising you didn’t have symptoms, but reactions can vary widely among celiacs. Some people are asymptomatic or have delayed reactions, while others feel effects immediately. Even if you didn’t notice symptoms, there could still be internal damage occurring, so it might be worth verifying the brand’s ingredients or contacting the manufacturer for clarity. In the future, sticking to certified gluten-free options or cider-based radlers could be a safer bet. Glad you’re feeling okay, but always better to err on the side of caution!
