Scarborough Renaissance Festival

I have been searching all over the internet for an answer to the most important question I can think of!! What is gluten free at Scarborough Renaissance Festival in Waxahachie Texas? Has anyone been there? I emailed and called the general manager but seeing as they don't work except for weekends I'm pretty sure it will be a long wait for a response. Since I'm also 6 months pregnant I would like to know if some of their protein dishes are gluten free like turkey legs, grilled chicken, rogue sandwich meat, or anything else!!

Obviously since I've been wheat free since 2005 I know the basics.

Thanks for your help in advance!

I have attended many Ren Faires and truthfully I don't eat there. Everything is questionable and even the turkey leg guy at in my area refuses to answer the "gluten question" on his food. So I pack a bar, apple and get bottled water. :) Oh, and I eat before I go. Have fun!

I ate the turkey leg at our renaissance festival (and I am pretty sure it is the same company that just goes from area to area) and never got sick. My mom ordered the frys at the same stand and it looked like they had some sort of non gluten free coating on them and she almost immediately got a headache so I would definitely stay away from the fries.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity?

      By yellowstone · Posted

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
