Has anyone actually had a problem with cc when buying boars head Meats or cheeses? What if the super market doesn't clean slicer? Is this a real or perceived risk of cc?

I think cc could be an issue with cut in the deli. Ask your store if they cut any other brands. Some have said that their stores have Boars Head only slicers. Some will take an " order" and cut yours first thing in the morning ( cleaned at night) and hold for you. Some of the BH brand can be found pre- cut by BH and packaged.

At the Fry's deli I asked what else had been cut on the slicer and she simply asked if I wanted it cleaned. I said yes, and all was good.

I have had cc'd Boars Head cut in the deli, even after they cleaned the slicer! Easiest way to avoid this is by buying the prepackaged Boars Head. That's what I do. In fact, if the deli counter one is cheaper, my deli will give me a discount on the prepackaged stuff because I can't use the ones they cut! They are very nice about it! I use a Harris Teeter in my area. I tried to get them to do this when I was out of town (at a different Harris Teeter), but to no avail! Oh, well! Live and learn!

Good luck!

      Of all the countries I have visited in Europe, Asia, and the Americas, I have found eating out in Ireland to be the safest for celiacs. Most restaurants have all allergens (up to 14 different ones) identified on their menus, including wheat and gluten. I have found staff at restaurants to be very knowledgeable regarding gluten and cross-contamination compared to most other countries. Restaurant staff (including management) in Ireland even tried dissuading me from eating some items labeled 'gluten-free' on the menu, fearing that there could be risk of minuscule cross-contamination. Many of the hotels have fresh baked gluten-free breads, pastries, and cakes at their breakfast buffet, something unheard of in most U.S hotels. These are clearly labeled and well separated from gluten-containing items. There are also quite a few gluten-free desserts to satisfy one's sweet tooth.  With everything said and done, the meats and dairy products are simply delicious and worth trying. Overall, I would give dining out in Ireland five stars for celiac safety and quality.

      No, I meant two years ago when you had your most recent upper GI scope.

      Hello everyone, I am a young adult living with both Celiac disease and achalasia. I am looking for some inspiration to start raising awareness for people with Celiac disease on instagram. Please reach out to me if you have any tips and ideas on what is important to share to the world.
