Maybe some of you already know this, but there is a "find me gluten free" APP for FREE!!!! I was recently on a road trip from Minnesota to the Carolina's. When we got to South Carolina, I thought to myself how much easier it would be to just know what places there were, and not have to keep calling each restaurant. So I searched in my Android Market and found it for FREE!!! Made my whole year!! It will search over 30 miles from your location, and let you know whether it has a gluten-free menu or if they are just willing to work with you. I was able to eat at all new places (I tend to default to the Outbacks and Red Robins I always eat at here in MN) the whole trip without getting cross contaminated or looked at like I had two heads when I asked about gluten-free dining. Hope this helps someone!! If you do get this app, be sure to "suggest" places so we can get it built up and have more and more options!! Yay!

Thank you so much! I just downloaded the app. I'm fairly new with having a smart phone (DroidX), so still learning how to use it and all the wonderful things it can do for me. This will be VERY useful.

You're welcome! I am still excited about it!! It's pretty easy and quick to use. Love/hate how popular gluten-free is becoming...love that people are aware....hate that some people think it's a "fad diet" and that they don't have to be careful. So, now we can find the places who know how important it is to us!

I downloaded that the other day. It was really good to see it and a couple others on there as well. My phone is more useful than most of the rest of my body so anything that will enhance my life with it is something I'll cheerfully support.

      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/
