Has Anyone Ever Asked A Restaurant...

My daughter was a manager at a Macaroni Grill in suburban Philadelphia and they had a family who were "regulars" with a celiac child. They would use a clean pot (beware the constantly boiling restaurant pasta pot) and cook this little girl some gluten free pasta so she could enjoy eating out with her parents.

Has anyone asked? And what's the response you've gotten?

I was out with friends last night and there was a "macaroni gratin" on the menu that I'd have killed for and I thought I should start asking!! The worst they can say is "no," right??

I've never asked, but you're right, all they can say is no :) But YES beware those pots! And not only pots ... forks, spoons etc. I picked up a cup at a coffee shop not long ago with crumbs in it. Dishwasher didn't do a very good job! :blink:

Let us know what reaction you get!

Some state laws do not allow that to be done. It depends on your area.

If this is any help, the Olive Garden in California will prepare your own pasta. But be careful of cross contamination.

Be well

      Bold Taste, No Alcohol & Crafted to Remove Gluten: Daura Non-Alc Beer Takes Alcohol-Free Beer to the Next Level

      I'm being SERIOUS here! Absolutely none of the styles of beer I use to drink are ever represented in the gluten-free market.

      Hmm, I think you mean the Gluten Intolerance Group®? Their website is not gig.net. Maybe it was at one point? I am new to all of this, but did find their website here: https://gluten.org/ Kind Regards, Known1

      Barilla gluten free pasta

      @Scott Adams, You're right about corn and wheat not sharing similarities in the 33-mer peptide segment of gluten. Corn has a completely different peptide that causes an autoimmune reaction because it attaches to HLA-DQ8. Casein in dairy shares with wheat similarities in the33-mer peptide chain. Sorry about the oversimplification. Maize...

      Did they ever tell you specifically which vitamins would interfere with which tests? Fermented pickles source of thiamine  and other B-vitamins, The fermentation process with lactic acid bacteria increases the nutrient value.   Colonies of beneficial bacteria can help crowd out the the bad SIBO. Have you had the rash biopsied for Dermatitus Herpetiformus?  Atopic Dermatitis and dermatitis herpetiformis share symtoms and atopic dermatitis patients have higher risk of dermatitis herpetiformis.  dermatitis herpetiformis is a symptom of Celiac diagnosis. When I had the carotid artery stent, the hospital put down "wheat allergy" for the food service.  I guess allergy puts the fear of god in them more than the misunderstood Celiac Disease.  Whatever keeps me alive in this world.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I just want to mention that corn and wheat do both contain storage proteins (corn has zein, wheat has gliadin and other gluten proteins), and there are some small similarities in certain amino acid sequences. However, those similarities are not considered medically equivalent, and corn proteins do not trigger the autoimmune response of celiac disease in the vast majority of people with celiac. Celiac disease specifically involves an immune reaction to gluten peptides found in wheat, barley, and rye. Corn is classified as gluten-free because its proteins do not activate that same immune pathway in most individuals. Although corn intolerance is very real, the explanation about the proteins being the same is oversimplified to the point where it's not accurate.
