Darn...just as I've sent most of them out I get an e-mail today. A June update:

Hello Yaks!

Just wanted to let you know that the updated version (for June 2005) of the SillyYak restaurant guide is now on the site (and all SY members should be receiving a copy of it on June 1st via automated email anyway). 

Well..... there are now 213 listings on it.....  (yes, some are old entries and some restaurants opted to not share any options even after numerous requests, but at least most of the legwork is done for you and the majority of the list is current). 

I have been trying to update some of the older entries, but some of those particular entries are for restaurants that are not in our geographic area, so they aren't on my priority list.

You must have the most current version of Adobe Acrobat Reader to view/download/print this guidebook.  Also, it can be uploaded to many PDA's, but you will have to figure out the logistics on that one.  I upload it to mine every month.

I didn't realize that there were over 200 listings on it thus far!  Enjoy!

Have a nice Memorial Day Weekend!

~Melonie :)

The new one is 143 pages. I'll keep you guys updated. I can either send you the new one now (143 pgs. or you can wait another two months or so for the next one). Your choice ;) Just e-mail me again or post here if you want the new one. I'm now sending out the new one to aljf and whoever else inquires about it.

Just diagnosed yesterday... I would love it (as would my wife) if you could send me that list to kevinkawa@walla.com. Thanks!

Sent. Sorry to make these posts, but it makes it easier to tell who I've sent it to and in case the intended recipient doesn't receive the file, at least he or she knows I tried to send it and can ask again.

Woohoo, 2400! lol...didn't realize it until after I posted :lol:

You're really nice to do this celiac3270, I would've posted the SillyYaks URL and said join the message board, it's great and has all sorts of great information including restaurants and recipes.

I would recommend that you join, everyone :D

Open Original Shared Link

I'm happy to send the list and am still getting requests. The site has a constantly updating restaurant list, recipe database, e-mail responses from companies are uploaded, as well as member discounts:

10% at Gluten Solutions: Open Original Shared Link

10% at Miss Roben's/Allery Grocer: Open Original Shared Link

I'm not sure how much at Gluten-Free Savonnerie: Open Original Shared Link . Someone posts at the board with updates on discounts and sales available multiple times a month.

5% at the Gluten Free Pantry: Open Original Shared Link

Some of these sites use special links and others have a code you enter at checkout. Am I allowed to post the links and stuff here? I'll ask Melonie if she would mind, but it's worth joining, anyway.

celiac3270, did I read that you have a list of gluten-free restaurants? I am going to Taos, Santa Fe and Albuquerque New Mexico next week and I need to know where I can eat.

If anyone knows any places in these towns, I would love the help!

Thank you,

Fonda

About Nashville:

Bonefish grill is a place we can eat at. My parents (My Mom has Celiacs, too) visited a location of theirs in Chattanooga but they have one in Nashville, too. They both enjoyed their appetizers but both didn't enjoy their main meals. That doesn't mean it's all bad but that was their only time there.

celiac3270: would you send me the updated restaurant list? You sent me the list earlier this year and it's been very helpful. You are great to take the time to send this out. :D:D

celiac3270: would you send me the updated restaurant list? My daughter was diagnosed in May, and I am planning for a 2 week trip to the East Coast in August. Based on everyone's comments, I think your list will make the trip much easier for us!

Thanks,

Can you please send me one too? trung.tran73@gmail.com. My toddler has wheat/oat/barley allergy.

Thank you very much!!

celiac3270, can I get a copy of that new list? Thanks! smideb@hotmail.com :)

Guest kmmolina
Oh, I know!  I'll e-mail you a file I have--I posted about it a few months ago, but I have an even newer version now--it's a 136 page Adobe file and it has menus/statements from all chain restaurants, plus a more specific list in certain states: New York, California, Oregon, Rhode Island, Virginia, Washington, and Washington DC.  Send me your e-mail address if you want it--the same applies to anyone else.  125 of the 136 pages are chains, nearly all of which would be found in Tenn.  LOL...just make sure you specify the restaurant file, since I still have a steady stream of Delphi Food List file requests :lol:

BTW, got it from Yahoo support group, Silly Yaks.

Hey, sorry if I'm doing this wrong...my first post. But do you still have that list? If you do could you please send to gina_8899@yahoo.com? My brother is coming to visit me next week in Virginia, and I don't know where to eat besides some of the obvious places.

Thanks for any help you can provide-

      Thank you very much for your response. Since I got this advice I called Pepsid manufacturer and they could not give a definite answer. Basically,  there is no final testing and they do not guarantee anything. So I went and got farmotidine from Wagmans that was marked gluten-free and also our pediatrician gave us a prescription for farmotidine that was also gluten-free. So there are other options there thankfully. In case someone will come across of this dilemma.

      A nutritionist typically focuses on general wellness, lifestyle guidance, and preventative health. A dietician allowed to provide medical nutrition therapy. When i was diagnosed there was zero support and few dieticians and Dr understood celiac disease.  I typically guide a newly diagnosed celiac to a whole food diet to easily transition to the gluten free lifestyle

      Your gluten-free journey sounds like a lot of trial and error—especially working in a deli where gluten exposure is constant! The eye-watering issue could be an airborne gluten sensitivity (like flour dust irritating your eyes) or even a mild wheat allergy, since you’re around it daily. A daily antihistamine (like Claritin or Zyrtec) might help if it’s allergy-related, but avoiding airborne gluten as much as possible (masking, washing hands/face often) is key. It’s great you’re tracking triggers—high-fiber foods and certain gluten-free substitutes (like those tortillas or PB pretzels) can sometimes cause similar symptoms due to additives or digestive adjustments. For travel, pack safe snacks (protein bars, nuts) and research gluten-free translation cards for Aruba. On flights, opt for packaged gluten-free meals or eat beforehand. Many gluten-free foods and baking mixes contain xanthan gum or other gums like guar gum. Although they are both gluten-free, they may cause IBS-type issues in some people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity:   You’re doing all the right prep—trust your research and enjoy your trips!

      It’s scary how hidden gluten can be—even in non-food products like hair care! Your experience is a great reminder that topical products with gluten can cause systemic reactions in some people with celiac disease, especially if they’re accidentally ingested (like when shampoo runs down your face). While not everyone reacts to external exposure, your symptoms—joint pain, brain fog, and GI issues—clearly show your sensitivity. It’s frustrating that companies aren’t required to label “gluten-free” on cosmetics, so ingredient checks are a must. Don’t feel stupid; many of us learn this the hard way! Thanks for sharing your story—it’s a wake-up call for others to scrutinize everything, from lotions to makeup. Hope you’re feeling better now that you’ve ditched the culprit!
    • Scott Adams
      It’s possible—though not extremely common—to develop a wheat allergy in addition to celiac disease. While celiac is an autoimmune reaction to gluten, a wheat allergy is an IgE-mediated response to wheat proteins, which can cause allergic symptoms like hives, swelling, or even anaphylaxis. Your recent anaphylactic reaction strongly suggests a true wheat allergy has developed alongside your celiac disease. Research on this overlap is limited, but some people with celiac do develop other immune-related conditions, including allergies. Repeated gluten exposures may have sensitized your immune system over time, leading to this new allergic response. Since wheat allergy involves different proteins than celiac, you could now be reacting to both. An allergist can confirm this with skin prick or IgE blood tests. Moving forward, you’ll need to avoid all wheat (not just gluten) and keep your Epi-Pen handy. Many in the celiac community report similar experiences, so you’re not alone. Glad you’re okay after that scary reaction—thanks for sharing your story, as it’s an important reminder of how complex these conditions can be.
