Red Lobster Allergen Menu New

I recieved an email today regarding Red Lobsters new alleregan menu. There are not that many things that are gluten free, but there are a few things. Steamed Lobster, Shrimp Scampi, and the best part CHEESECAKE! It is a crustless cheesecake. I think that is what I miss the most when dinning out is gluten free deserts. Can't wait to try it.

Here is the link to the new allergan menu. Make sure to read the astricks, as some things are marked as being gluten free, but there is a chance of CC when prepared. At least the company takes that into consideration when making the menu. Thank You Red Lobster!

Thanks for posting this. I will avoid Red Lobster like the plague. Any restaurant that can't provide broiled fish, broccoli, asparagus and a shrimp cocktail without adding wheat isn't a place where I'll spend my money. What on earth are they doing to the broccoli? :o

I was thinking the same thing. Crazy how they add gluten/wheat to naturally gluten free foods. Like asparagus and broccoli. My only thought is either its the seasoning or even more so I am guessing they blanch (spelling?) them in the boiling pasta water?

Unless there is a glutening fairy that comes at night and sprinkles gluteny particles on the veggies at Red Lobster's? I donno B) Weird though for sure. I will also not be dinning there..CC is to high and the idea that a simple veggie can't be gluten-free is crazy. Nope sorry Reb Lobster I know you tried...but try harder next time. :)

FYI I ate at Red Lobster last night and didn't experience any problems. They seemed to be very careful and I didn't get sick at all. I had snow crab legs, baked potato, and their cheesecake dessert!! I wouldn't avoid it like the plague at all. Although, it is weird you can't eat the asparagus or broccoli, must be a seasoning or something. Regardless, they do have some very good dishes to eat and who wants broccoli when you can actually eat the CHEESECAKE!

You make a very good point. :D

The last time I checked it was the seasoning that made the broccoli off limits. I ordered it one time and just said no seasoning. I didn't like their shrimp scampy because the shrimp is so small but I have had the snow crab legs without any problems. The cheesecake is real good.

Lobster nachos! Had this for lunch.

Also had the shrimp scampi, a salad and coleslaw. Didn't have the cheesecake because I didn't have time but I will try it next time.

So far no problem.

I tried to order the Lobster Nachos one time and was told it wasn't gluten free. I just looked at the menu and it appears that it is fried with wheat items. Did your Red Lobster have a dedicated frier? If so then I may try again but call around to find a Red Lobster that can offer it.

Thanks!

That's odd. I don't know if there is a dedicated fryer or not. All I know is it showed up gluten free on our menu and I ate it and had no problems and if I get glutened my stomach starts to gurgle within 30 minutes. Nothing happened. I will ask the next time I'm there.

Let me know as I thought it sounded really good.

Once I tried the cheese cake and it was to die for!

Thinking about this makes me want to go back...

My mom has celiac disease, and we went to Red Lobster a few weeks ago. Our waiter didn't seem to have much understanding about gluten-free items and didn't give us an allergy-free menu or anything. My mom found the one online, though, and ordered the shrimp scampi. However, 10 minutes later, our waiter came out and said that the shrimp scampi, in his words, "has little particles...in it" so should couldn't have it. He said that he could give it to her dry, without the sauce. She ultimately ended up getting a steak, but we were definitely disappointed in the lack of knowledge of the staff and the inconsistency with the online menu.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system
