Gorton's Fish Sticks! And thick pizza crust . . . just the crust, forget the stuff on top. And fresh-baked garlic knots with gobs of garlic, olive oil and parmesan cheese drowning them. And some Popeye's fried chicken. Also gravy biscuits, bagels, real egg noodles, Campbell's canned condensed soups . . . see, I'm not picky! :P Oh my, I guess just about anything I used to eat would be so welcome. *sigh*

Are you anywhere near a Five Guys restaurant? They only do fries in their fryers so those are safe, and you could bring your own bun and have them make you a bunless cheeseburger. In fact, now I'm wanting a burger and fries and a Five Guys trip is sounding like a good idea. :D

Yeah, but I'm craving a *real* one where I don't have to do any work :lol:

Oh, gee, I wish you hadn't said Popeye's chicken. Especially the spicy. Now I'm really craving. I'll have to see what I can do with a raw chicken, some gluten-free flour and Chechere's Cajun seasoning.

heatherjane Contributor

actually - today I'm craving nachos from QDoba

summerteeth Enthusiast

Baguette from this local baker just across the river from where I work with (real!) butter - preferably Kerrygold butter...

burdee Enthusiast

Absolutely nothing. Compared to my other 6 allergens, abstaining from gluten was a breeze. However, I like how all those restrictions simplify my choices and greatly improve the quality (healthwise) of my diet.

I would love to be able to eat anything I wanted and not

have any side effects!!!

Mainly PIZZA!!!![/

Reba32 Rookie

most definitely, I would love a nice bottle of beer! That's about all I really miss. The gluten free beer here in Canada is just way too expensive :(

SaraKat Contributor

Just going out to a restaurant and not having to request a special diet need. Maybe a bowl of pasta, that sounds good about now.

ravenwoodglass Mentor

The only thing I really miss is phyllo wrapped around some apples, some baklava or spanikopita. Oh and these wonder meat and cinnamon pies I used to make with pita bread.

sandiz Apprentice

Going to a restaurant and ordering a burger and beer...... I miss beer.

It's not chicken parm and Fettuccine Alfredo, but Olive Garden has a gluten free menu with gluten free pasta on it.

Noni Rookie

:D I'm so excited to know about Olive Garden's gluten-free menu!

Has anyone tried it out? I miss pasta the most! LOVE pasta!!! :P

gfForLife Newbie

hahah, thank you. I've heard the pasta is a microwaveable pre-made meal though and is NOT very tasty. When I first heard about it I was all excited but I'll pass because I can make that at home ;)

Now, the herb grilled salmon with broccoli and peppers on the side is really good. That's what I get when we go. It's my new favorite :D

notme Experienced

a 'garbage' pizza (that's w/everything) from mario's in nj. lasagne!!! and a rueben sandwich on seedless rye. or pumpernickel.....

I want a cinnabon. With extra frosting. I also want wheat spaghetti and toasted french bread with butter that I can dip in the pasta sauce.

Good to know, thanks. I haven't tried the gluten-free pasta at Olive Garden, I just know they have it. I have had their mixed grill (chicken medallion with veggies and steamed broccoli) and it was okay but very bland. I really love their salad. I just wish they had a gluten-free soup, I would go for just soup and salad.

bluebonnet Explorer

gooey thick doughy pizza, chic fi la, soft doughy pretzel, cream filled donut and beer battered fried fish with a side of hush puppies!!!! :)

An elephant ear with cinnamon and sugar. Powdered donuts. old fashioned donuts.

K8ling Enthusiast

Is the salad ad Olive Garden gluten-free?

i-geek Rookie

Is the salad ad Olive Garden gluten-free?

Yes, if the croutons are left off. I've only eaten there once since going gluten-free- it wasn't ever my favorite restaurant pre-gluten-free- and quite frankly, it was the best meal I'd ever had at the Olive Garden (the Mixed Grill plate on the gluten-free menu was delicious). Our waiter was very attentive and careful and brought out a separate plate of croutons so that those who could eat them could put them on their own plates without me even asking him to do it.

ksymonds84 Enthusiast

Like WheatChef I really miss the BIG doughy Pretzels especially when I'm at the Rockies game and seeing people eat them all around me (won't have to experience this anymore until next year since they are done).

French bread dipped into my yummy garlic oil. Udi's helps but not the same

My old gluteny home made pizza dough recipe. After many fails at trying to make it with gluten free flours I've given up and buy kinnicks or the local gluten-free bakery ones.

Emilushka Contributor

Bread. Sandwiches. Pizza. Guinness. Muffins. Garlic bread. Lasagna. Normal soy sauce.

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
