Information Card

Is there any kind of small card that you can give to your server w/ a basic description of the problem (celiac disease) and how the food needs to be prepared (plain, no marinades, no contact w/ wheat, gluten products, or a surface where wheat, gluten had been ect) I am finding the servers mean well but like the game of telephone information is not presented in its original form! My friend said she knew someone who had something like this that she handed to the server which was shown in the kitchen.

Any ideas? It is for my son which if he is w/ friends or another family at a restuarant he can pass it off himself. Peace of mind for me I guess!! lol

Yes, there is. Triumph Dining Card are a series of laminated cards in several different languages. They are running a promotion currently. You can find it at www.triumphdining.com.

I have used mine frequently and I highly recommend them.

PM me and I will send you their promotional information.

I second the endorsement for Triumph. They hold up well, are translated into a bunch of different languages, and I've had a great response to them. Just used one this weekend, in fact.

Oops now I see MommaGoose already answered.

But what the heck, I'll copy here what Laura (Happygirl) posted elsewhere for the promo.

Another (free) option is to go to www.foodallergybuddy.com. You can customize your information and print out a whole page of food allergy alert cards. This is sponsored by the National Restaurant Association. I have used this with success when I can tell my server isn't familiar with food allergies or Celiac issues.

I bought the inexpensive laminating covers at Staples so that my card always comes back to me after the chef has been made aware.

Hope this helps!

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped baby spinach or celery leaves to add a dash of green color to this red dish. Best eaten in first couple days because flavor tends to fade. Leftovers are still good, but not as vibrant. Ingredients 2 medium eggplants, partially peeled and cut into cubes (original recipe says 1 in, but I prefer 1/2 to 3/4 in) 2 tomatoes, peeled and crushed 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced 1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy harissa (I use Mina brand) 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon paprika ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) Salt to taste Preparation     • Heat olive oil in skillet or pot over medium heat. Add all ingredients and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook on low heat for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.       • Serve warm or cold as a side or with bread for dipping. Enjoy!

      I checked consumer labs that I'm a member of they independently check products for safely and claims the wolfs was rated great and bobs redmill buckwheat cereal. Ultra low gotten no dangerous levels of arsenic heavy metals, mold, yeast etc. plus they mention to refrigerate. I wonder if the raw buckwheat they rinse bc it's not toasted like kasha. Toasted removes the grassy taste I have to try the one you mentioned. I also bought Qia which is a quinoa mixed got great reviews.
