Chinese Food?


Emily T

Recommended Posts

Emily T Rookie

So I ordered Chinese tonight. Second day of no gluten. I ordered the rice noodles with curry and shrimp. My usual order involves egg drop soup doused in soy sauce. I opted out of the soup since they were unable to tell me if it had gluten in it. I know corn starch is a big ingredient used there, but still decided to forgo it. I didn't use any of the soy sauce even though it didn't mention anything gluten related, but it did say caramel coloring, which I thought I heard had gluten in it. Is anyone able to clarify this for me? Thanks in advance!

Caramel color is gluten-free. Soy sauce usually (but not always) contains wheat. Corn starch is gluten-free.

Day two gluten-free? You are still healing. Reactions to gluten can be delayed, even once you are fully healed. Until your intestines heal, you may have reactions to any food, even though it is gluten-free.

I don't know where Adelaide is but PF Changs is a national chain that has a gluten-free menu. I use glutenfreeregistry.com for finding restaurants.

Thanks GlutenFreeManna. I'll give that website a try. Adelaide is the capital of South Australia, Australia.

Oh, well then that website may not help--I think it's mainly the US and Canada. Sorry. I know we have several people from Australia here so hopefully they will be able to help. Probably a good idea to make your own post however since the OP's post is just about Chinese restaurants in general. If you put Adelaide, Australia in the title of a new post you're more likely to get a good answer.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
