Have been noticing a lot more gluten-free options on LBI. I have not tried all of them or can attest to the cross contamination possibilites so please question on your own. Here are some I have read seen:

Pangaea Naturals Health Food Market - RT 72 Health food store with plenty of gluten-free items including breads, pastas, cereals and frozen items.

Greenhouse Cafe - Surf City - gluten-free pizza gluten-free rolls for breakfast sandwiches etc (had both and enjoyed them)

Boulevard Clams - Surf City - gluten-free Crab cakes - very good but expensive as I ordered them cooked. $20 for two crab cakes with two sides. (Potato salad is not gluten-free - they told me) - they also sell them in the fish market and you can cook them at home I assume they are cheaper.

Panzones Pizza - Beach Haven location - gluten-free pizza - had it and it was good

Calabria Ristorante Beach Haven - gluten-free pizza and pasta never tried it

Buckalews - Lists gluten-free options available on their online menu and advertisment - have not been there so I am not sure what they specifically offer. I beleive they have Red Bridge

Plantation Restaurant - Harvey Cedars - I beleive at one time they listed gluten-free options on their menu not sure if they still do. Never been there.

Places that offer Red Bridge Beer:

Callahans - Surf City at the bar

Gateway - Ship Bottom at the bar and liquor store

Kubels Too - at the bar

Buy Rite Liquors - Rt 72 East

Shell Liquors - Ship Bottom

Terrace Tavern - had it in the past not sure if they still do.

Sussex County is a little far from where I am so I am not familiar with the area. I see one online - Little Anthony's Pizza in Vernon. There are plenty of websites that could help you out.

I just finished a delicious meal at Buckalews. The menu was clearly marked and the food was fresh and inspiring. I ordered the scallops in a lima bean and corn succatash. It was flavorful and creamy. Our waitress was Jane and she was well informed and friendly- I will ask for her again. I will be back there for sure.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
