My family and I are getting geared up for the Celiac 5k walk/run in Baltimore on May 4th.

We had a great time last year and got to try and buy lots of great foods - donuts, pizza, french bread... :P

Anyone else planning on going??

I had no idea there was such a thing, but how cool is that!! I love doing 5Ks. I'm not sure if I'll make it, but if it's an annual thing, we can definitely plan. But I am going to look into that, Baltimore is not so far away from me. Plus, I have a ton of fam in VA that I could visit that are about 2 hrs away... HMMMM... and get to try pizza.... the allure is growing stronger... :rolleyes:

Definitely worth the trip! And they have some great (safe) restaurants there, too. My son cried when we left last year - he was so happy to have so much to eat out in public.

Anyway, check out the site at www.celiaccenter.org. You'll see celiac 5k walk/run on the left side bar. They have them in several states.

Gina, Can you share what restaurants are safe in B-more? Thanks.

gdobson Explorer

Sure - I've got it at home, though. I'm at work - oops

Happy Girl,

OK, here are the places someone from the celiac center recommended:

Great Sage

Austin Grill

Legal Seafoods

McCormick & Schmicks

We ate at Austin Grill (yum) and Great Sage (double yum!). Both have websites. We didn't need to take our own menus.

Of course, this was a year ago. Hope they haven't changed!

Austin Grill is our absolute favorite restaurant...luckily there are 8 of them in the DC metro area. They are absolutely awesome, and I'm an extremely sensitive Celiac.

Legal Seafoods is great, also!

M&S is pretty $$, but I've never heard of Great Sage, so I'll look into it. Thanks for the info-I appreciate it.

The website is Open Original Shared Link in case you hadn't found it already.

      Hey @Butch68, I also have dermatitis herpetiformis but don't suffer from it anymore. I used to drink Guinness too but I drink Cider now when out on social occasions. I assume you are in Ireland or the UK. If it's any good to you ... 9 White Deer based in Cork brew a range of gluten-free products including a gluten-free Stout. I'm not sure if they are certified though. https://www.9whitedeer.ie/ I haven't come across any certified gluten-free stouts this side of the pond.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
