Hello everyone! I am not from Washington. However, I will be traveling to Yakima, WA in January. My husband and I have to attend a business dinner. Any suggestions for a "safe" restaurant in the area, preferably close to the Capitol Theatre. Thanks!

Port Angeles, WA here! :)

I rarely eat out as there is very little choice here, but we've found a few places that know about celiac disease and work to get me food I can eat.

Alder Wood Bistro is one such place.

They even offer gluten-free crackers. :o

Hi all,

This is my first time in a chat room EVER :) I was diagnosed with celiac a year and a half ago and have just started my kids on a gluten-free diet as well. We live just outside Shelton, Wa. Shoping gluten-free here is pure torture !!!!! I just started buying off Amazon but find it hard to order something I dont know that I like and the stores here have a less than adequate selection. I am hoping to find some friendly people here that have tips especialy on packing school lunches :)

I've been lurking in the forums for months now, but will finally say hello!

I think we should hold a Puget-wide PICNIC and have a bread-off! Or a pizza-off!.... im hungry....

:blink:

I live in Bellevue. I would love to find other people near me who can't eat gluten, but I haven't seemed to have any luck with that yet. :(

Hi i'm from UW :)

Hi! I'm new to the board, and new to the Gluten-free lifestyle. The doctor told me I might have Celiac Disease last monday, and test results came in and confirmed this as of this morning (though I'd been doing my best to eat gluten-free in the meantime).

I live in Downtown Seattle (as the name implies), and I have only just begun my search for appropriate places to eat...

I've also tried to learn as much as I can about the disease, and foods I can/can't eat in the last week and a half, but there's so much information out there!! :blink:

Anyway, I just figured I'd say hi, and you'll probably see me on these boards regularly. :)

      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.
