Hey gang,

I am headed to Knott's Berry Farms tomorrow with my little brother.

Is there any place in there that accomodates gluten free folks?

Hello,

I don't know anywhere inside the park where you can eat safely, but directly across the street from Knotts Berry Farm, at 7971 Beach Blvd: NW corner of Beach Blvd and La Palma, is the Claim Jumper restaurant. You can go to their website, claimjumper.com and print a menu to take with you. Watch out, the menu doesn't always specify that a dish automatically comes with bread, so the first thing I ordered had a piece of garlic toast laying across it. The food is good and the portions are large. The waiter there told us he has run across the street to Knotts, gone on 3 rides, and been back within his lunch hour. So it is pretty close but you still can drive.

Have fun at Knotts!

p.s.

Please let us know if you actually find somewhere in the park where you can eat. I doubt it. There is Mrs. Knotts, the Fried Chicken and Boysenberry pie place, and lots of little places, but I couldn't eat in the amusement park the last time I went.

Well,

I made the trip.

First off, there is not a huge amount of choices for us there. However, I was able to find a small restaurant in the front of the park that served burgers and lay's chips. I ordered the burger with no bun.

I actually brought a backpack in the park and had some glutino cereal bars, 4 pieces of gluten free bread and some perky-o's in a ziploc bag. I was fine.

The burger was actually pretty darn good! I also had some kosher dill pickles at another place down the way from the burger place.

In addition, I drank probably 5 bottled waters and 2 vitamin waters.

Grand total for 2 burgers, 2 bags of chips, 5 bottled waters and 2 vitamin waters = $51

LOL, what a rip off...

Hope you had a good time anyway! I only go there in I think certain days in October or November, when my husband and I get in free because he is a Vet. It is too bad food choices are so limited at the Knotts. I hear better things about Disneyland.

I'm going to Knott's on Nov. 16th and did a bit of research. They do have a Johnny Rocket's in the park and I know that they will accommodate us. I'm not sure about any of the other places yet.

      "I'm wondering if she just hadn't eaten enough to test positive?" --> Because your daughter is "IGA deficient", the (gliadin IGA) test she was given could not work properly and the result of that particular test was meaningless. The amount of gluten she did/didn't eat would not matter for that part, whether or not she actually has celiac disease. If instead she had had normal levels of IGA in her blood, then the question of how much gluten she was eating would become relevant.

      That sounds very hernia inducing work! You confirm what I have suspected, I get pain just to the right of the umbilical hernia, I am sure there is a connection.  If do see my gastroenterologist I'll mention it again.   I can't help thinking I've also got an issue in my groin, perhaps a hernia threatening, I guess an ultrasound would be needed to confirm it.

      For the Inguinal hernia I could definitely feel it, and it came with an obvious bulge that appeared soon after doing a project where I was drilling holes on concrete using a very old school regular hand drill with mason bit, instead of a hammer drill with mason bit--this left me squatting over the drill putting my weight on it for several hours (the hammer drill would not have required this level of stress, nor the time it took). Bad idea--learn from my mistake in being "lazy" and not renting (or buying) the proper tool for the job. My umbilical hernia was around for many years, and I didn't feel that one at all, so never worried about it. My doctor basically recommended doing both in one surgery, which seemed like wise move.  As far as the possible IBS connection to either, it was definitely apparent after getting the Inguinal hernia, which is why I asked my doctor about that, but after getting both fixed I realize that the umbilical hernia likely also had mild IBS effects over the years.

      @Scott Adams  Strange question but can you actually feel your hernia?  I have so many abdominal lumps and bumps of longstanding (my GP said it's fat!) that I sometimes wonder if an inguinal hernia could be missed.  I am quite sure some of my pain is from my umbilical hernia but that first came about courtesy of my second pregnancy.

      Thanks for sharing this! I've always wanted to go to Ireland, and we did include Ireland in a recent top travel destinations article, so it's nice to know that we got that right:
