Any gluten-free Places Around Milwaukee, Wisconsin?

Hello, Our family (mom, dad, three little kids - everyone but dad is gluten-free) will be spending a long weekend in Milwaukee. We are planning on taking all of our own food, but thought maybe we should see if there are gluten-free restaurants out there just in case we feel adventurous. We are new (this summer) to gluten-free and have not eaten ouy anywhere. Well, we tried Wendy's fries about 2 weeks into it and got sick. I asked them if it was a dedicated fryer and they said yes, but we have since that that is rarely the case.

I am getting a bit nervous about packing absolutely everything. Thanks goodness we are driving, we will probably need a rooftop carrier for all our food.......

I visited Wisconsin last summer and it was like Heaven for Celiacs! I was in the Madison area, and there was a pizza place w/gluten-free pizza, dessert, and beer called Bunky's and a farmer's market where a gluten free table was set up every week. There were gluten free bakeries, too. Google the celiac group for that area and check out the restaurant lists and bakeries. Silly Yak Bakery. The midwest's regular grocery stores also had gluten free aisles. It was awesome.

The Gluten Free Trading Company (grocery that is gluten-free only in milwaukee)

Bunky's (SUPERB, try the chocolate mousse pie...pizza is amazing)

The Silly Yak (super selection)

Most of the groceries have gluten-free selections, Woodman's is GREAT!!!

UBake - stores in Madison and Janesville. The have pre-made, but frozen gluten free goodies. Their apple pie and pizza crusts are delicious. They also have donut holes, cookie mixes, breads... VERY reasonably priced, too

Basics - in Janesville. I have never been here, but my mom LOVES it. They have quite a large selection of gluten free stuff.

I also second the Gluten Free Trading Co. I get their catalog and it is quite impressive!

There is also a gluten free bakery in Pewaukee, WI.

For groceries, go to Whole Foods, or even better, Outpost Natural Foods (local co-op). They have the best selection of flours (from Bob's Red Mill and others), and every possible organic gluten-free food out there.

      Symptoms that get worse if you don't supplement is a sign of malabsorption, possibly due to Celiac disease. Blood tests for nutritional deficiencies are not very accurate, and should be done when you have been off of supplements for eight to twelve weeks, otherwise the vitamin supplements you've taken will be measured.  The blood circulation system is a transportation system.  It transports the vitamins you've absorbed around the body, but blood tests don't give an accurate picture of the vitamin and mineral stores inside organs and tissues where they are actually used.  You can have "normal" blood levels but still have deficiencies.  This is because the brain demands stored nutrients be put into the blood stream to supply important organs, like the brain and heart, while other organs do without.   If you are taking Thiamine Mononitrate in your supplements, you are probably low in thiamine.  Thiamine Mononitrate is used in many supplements because it won't break down sitting on a shelf.  This also means Thiamine Mononitrate is difficult for the body to utilize.  Only thirty percent of Thiamine Mononitrate on the label is absorbed and even less is able to be utilized by the body.  A different form of Thiamine called Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.   Talk to your doctor about doing a genetic test to look for Celiac markers.   I'm concerned that if you do a gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum off two weeks) in your weakened state, the nutritional deficiencies will become worse and possibly life threatening.

      Hello, good afternoon!   I apologize, I didn’t see a notification and I’m just reading this. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and the link. Yes you are absolutely right, even so trying to get a response from them has been extremely difficult. They don’t answer but I will your practice of “guilty until proven innocent.”   I like and have a sense of trust here in this website, everyone is honest and thoughts are raw. The mutual understanding is amazing!   thank you Scott!

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.
