Subway Restaurants Announces Gluten-Free Rolls & Brownie Test Marketing

Celiac.com (blog)

In 1994 I was diagnosed with celiac disease, which led me to create Celiac.com in 1995. I created this site for a single purpose: To help as many people as ...

That would be absolutely wild if Subway could find a way to pull that off and not cross contaminate the sandwich fillings. :)

Not sure how that will work. Don't they lay the cut bread on a little counter with the toppings? Then reach gloved hands in the toppings? And the crumbs off the cut bread get pushed or dropped in the toppings?

Only way I can see this working out is if they have a separate station for gluten-free toppings and condiments, separate toaster and educate employees really, really well about the need to change gloves. Unfortunately none of those scenarios are highly likely, IMO. This will just be another place for people that are doign gluten-free as a trendy diet and not for those doing it for medical reasons. I wish someone would open up a sub shop chain with nothing but gluten free sandwiches. Maybe we will see it in a few years.

Wat too much wheaty gluten flying around. I wouldn't trust it on a bet!

I wonder where they would even prepare these sandwiches? The few Subways I have been in have been small and there would be no place to isolate them from the wheat stuff.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).

      This topic has come up before on this forum and has been researched. No GMO wheat, barley and rye are commercially available in the USA. Any modifications are from hybridization, not laboratory genetic modification. Better toleration of wheat, barley and rye products in other countries is thought to be due to use of heirloom varieties of these cereal grains as opposed to the hybrids used in the USA which contain much larger amounts of gluten.
