I am trying to find a good sushi restaurant that I can eat at safely. I have read that the sushi axiom is gluten free friendly...but as usual I got a "What the heck is gluten?" response when I asked the waiter.haha! So has anyone ever eaten there...or know of a place that has gluten free sushi in fort worth, texas?? Thanks!

The trick with sushi is to stick to plain raw fish and sushi rice and bring your own soy sauce. Then you're eating naturally gluten-free food. The best thing to order is nigiri or sashimi and rice. Edamame, pickled veggies and ginger, and things like cream cheese or cucumber are OK too.

I've also never had a problem with nori (seaweed) on things like tuna rolls but I just learned here that korean nori can be processed with soy sauce.

Avoid cooked sushi like unagi that can be flavored with soy sauce, tempura put in rolls, fake crab meat, roe as it can be marinated with soy sauce, ponzo sauce, and wasabi (unless you know it's pure).

You will get a funny look if you mention gluten, but I will say "I am allergic to fake crab meat and soy sauce, please serve my food plain" to be sure they don't try to "decorate" anything with a squirt of ponzo sauce or shreds of fake crab.

Thankyou so much! Yeah before I was diagnosed I would eat avocado rolls....which consists of fresh avocado with rice and soy paper instead of seaweed because I hate seaweed! And i actually craved it alot because it was one of the few things that didn't make me sick. Should I be concerned with soy paper?

I don't know. I have never run across soy paper! Maybe someone else can tell you.

You might ask if there's an English ingredient label they can show you the first time you eat it. If it doesn't make you sick and you're sensitive, that's always a good sign. :)

Often if you say you have a "wheat allergy" and need to see a label or check something, people understand better and are more helpful.

Ok thanks! Yeah I am very sensitive to alot of foods so I should know!

The only soy paper that I have seen was gluten-free, but it was in a store and I could read the label.

Yo, I looked it up and it was Sushi Party's Soy Wrappers at our very cool local natural foods store. I would give the restaurant a call - it's good practice for the rest of life, you bypass a potentially busy server and also, you'd have soo much more fun on your date. ;)

Now I want some of them.

Eel (in sushi) is often covered with a sauce that contains wheat, so avoid the eel. (Maybe you would have, anyway. :P ) Also, some of the vegetarian sushi options may have bread crumbs.

sannep77 Newbie

uummm yes I would stay away from eel! yuck. I actually only like the vegetarian sushi. preferably avocado roll..yum:)

I live just outside of Dallas, so if you hear of a good sushi restaurant other than Osaka please let me know, they may have another branch closer to me. Thanks

Hello! I have the same problem all the time. I work in sushi resturant and will tell you as long as you're smart about it, you'll be ok. No "crunch". No random sauce. It's all soy sauce based. Just say no soy sauce. I work at a place called Samurai Bistro ask for me and I'll hook you up :D

      Daughter has started gluten free diet this week as per gastroenterologists suggestion. However says she feels more tired and like she’s been hit by a train. I suggested it could be the change to gluten free or just stress from the endoscopy last week catching up with her. Just wondering if feeling more tired is a normal reaction at this stage. I suppose it’s possible some gluten might have been present without realising. Have tried to reassure her it’s not going to resolve symptoms overnight

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.
