Gluten Free In Traverse City, Mi

Hey everyone -

I'm going to Traverse City for a few days this weekend to meet up with some friends and two of them are gluten free (one has celiac, the other is self-diagnosed gluten intolerant). They're throwing a birthday party while we're there for another friend and I was told to bring something that will go with burgers and fries. Normally I would make something, but as I will be staying in a hotel, I will have to buy instead. Does anyone know where I can go in Traverse City to buy party-appropriate gluten free goodies? Also, what would you suggest bringing that would be a hit with gluten-free's and wheat-eaters alike? I've been up there before but never went grocery shopping before!

      @Rebeccaj, You may choose to get tested to see if you have an allergy to wheat.  That's a different type of immune response to wheat than Celiac Disease.  It's possible to have both.  You may need an Epipen. A histamine release in the sinuses upon being exposed to wheat in wheat allergy can cause a headache.    Talk to your doctor about wheat allergy testing.

      Although sensitivity to gluten varies between individuals, multiple research studies suggest that consuming up to 10 mg of gluten a day is safe for most people with coeliac disease. Wheat flour contains approximately 10% gluten by weight, so this is equivalent to 100 mg of flour, or a piece of wheat bread the size of a small pea. There is a case report of farmers with coeliac disease developing symptoms from inhaling gluten containing dust from cattle feed but that is an extreme example and they were exposed to very high concentrations of airborne gluten over a long period of time. In a domestic situation, unless someone is making dough and putting a lot fo flour into the air, I don't think you will get significant airborne exposure. The thing to watch out for is making sure work surfaces, cutlery and utensils are clean. If you have to share a toaster, get some toasting pouches.

      You might look into wearing an N95 mask when others are creating baked goods with wheat flour in your environment.

      @trents thank you for that information. My parents feel that cooking flour in toaster isn't a thing as its already cooked product before made? but Airbourne particles is my fear. Like I have had symptoms from 6 meters away had to leave massive migraine.
