We haven't found any restaurant with a gluten-free menu, but DiFebo's has offered to cook gluten-free pasta for us if we bring it in.

There's also a nice little health food store in Bethany Beach called Wholesome Habits (Route 1, Beach Plaza 302-537-0567) that has a very good selection of gluten-free items.

I work in bethany-at Bethany Blues BBQ- Not a whole lot of gluten-free on the menu but you can get ribs w/o sauce, mashers, greens, corn (on cob only) kids chix fingers (grilled-no breading), etc etc. (bring your own bbq sauce and salad dressing if you want) there is also an outback in rehobeth, de, as well as many crab houses (yum! and gluten-free) in the area. I did go to mancini's in fenwick island de, they have wonderful italian food (which i miss) and they made me one of their specialties on a bed of spinach in place of pasta. Oh, there is a new gluten-free coffee shop in the "shops of fenwick island" called Too Life-gluten-free smoothies coffee, snacks and a small but wonderful gluten-free shop. the owners there have been gluten-free for alot longer than me and would probably have more suggestions on gluten-free dining in the area. oh-have fun and if you do stop by for BBQ, see if i'm working I'd be able to point you to more gluten-free items on the menu. melissa :D

I just got back from Bethany Beach!

It was a VERY Celiac-friendly vacation spot. Too Life in Fenwick Island was wonderful - I'm so lucky that I literally stumbled upon it my second day there. Not only was I able to get a yummy gluten-free beverage, but I also picked up some muffins from Mr. Ritts while I was there. They also pointed me in the right direction for restaurants - The Big Easy (which is right across from Sea Colony, where I stayed) is a great place for Celiacs. The owner's family are all Celiacs! They can even do a special breading with gluten-free flour if you call ahead!

I too went to Di Febo's (sp?) and they were quite accomodating.

I was pleasantly surprised with Bethany Beach, and I must admit I was skeptical about going on vacation, going out to eat, and staying gluten-free. I'll definitely go back :D

I had just started a new thread in the dinning out section about a week ago telling everyone about to life and the big easy. Too bad you didn't see it before you went, but the fact that you stumbled on it is fantastic. :D Aren't the owners great? Super nice people!! I think their shop will get better and better as time goes on. Since they are so new they wern't stocked up on alot of things, but said they will be soon. While we were there they were even serving homade waffles for breakfast. :P:D

It's nice to know we can go more and more places and have great experiences!!

The last 2 vacations I have been on, have been gluten-free fantastic!!

Now...does anyone know of anywhere in Cape May New Jersey that's gluten-free?

Wendy,

It is really funny that I found this website and these posts after my vacation, but I do feel lucky for To Life. The owners were incredibly nice, and they had waffles the one morning I was there too! I'm a coffee-a-holic, but I usually stick with plain, black coffee, but at To Life I got a mocha latte with no fear! The owners said they had only been in business for 7 weeks and that they plan to start carrying sandwiches soon. I hope they have great luck!

Hi Lauren,

I know...Wow!

Can you even imagine? Eating out in restaurant and getting to order a SANDWICH? Unbelievable! :blink::lol::D

I might even be worth a day trip to the beach (I'm about 2-1/2 or 3 hours away) just to get one. :D

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
