Bertucci's Salad Dressings

Can anyone tell me if the salad dressing on Bertucci's insalata salad is gluten free? Probably their house italian dressing but I am not sure. I ate a bite thinking it didn't have dressing on it and realized too late it did. I feel fine so far but sometime my reactions don't occur for hours.

Jen,

Thanks so much for the information! I also have never had a reaction from eating at Bertucci's. Its on my "safe" list of places to go! Thanks for help :-)

Hi Gemini,

That's really good news! Great to hear you are enjoying the gluten-free carry out! Yum!

Which ones do you frequent? I'd love to pass on the compliments if you don't mind.

Jen....thank you for all the work that Bertucci's does to create such a wonderful gluten-free menu! I have eaten there many times, never been glutened which is saying a lot considering all the wheat flour flying around that place, and the choices are great! It's the first time in 5 years I actually have a place to get take-out after a long week at work. It's those small things in life that make you happy! :D

I have also observed the staff there when they are handling my food and it's obvious they have been trained in CC. At least the ones I frequent, they do a good job.

I frequent the ones in Marlborough and Westborough, Massachusetts. On one occasion I went to pick up take-out food, the manager was assisting with the orders as it was busy. My husband always likes to get the rolls as he is not Celiac. As the girl was starting to bag my order, the manager looked up and said, "...and don't you dare put those rolls in the same bag as the gluten-free food!" I thanked her for that but at least I know they are really trying to get it right.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.
    • Scott Adams
      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
