Texas Renaissance Festival Gluten Free?

I have sent an email out to the festival. I am waiting on a response. In the meantime, I was wodnering if anyone knows of any items at the Texas Renaissance Festival are gluten free?

We love to people watch and eat less than healthy foods this one time of the year. There is nothing on their site that lists anything involving gluten free. This could be a stretch, but thought it might be worth a shot to see if anybody knew on here by chance.

Thanks so much!

Where in TX? Curious...

My husband and I were at Oktoberfest in Fredericksburg recently and I did find a few things there that I could have (had quite a few snacks in my backpack, just in case). They had some GREAT fried potatos that they were slicing fresh and frying right there on the spot, no additional ingredients, just the potato with dedicated fryers. And then I found another place that was selling burgers and they were very helpful with even the lady at the register walking back to the guys on the grill, being very specific that my burger (100% angus beef, no fillers) could not touch ANYTHING and he grilled it specially and walked the wraped burger straight to me. And then that night, we all four (we were there with another couple) went out to dinner. The chef even came to our table to talk to us and she understood Celiac VERY well. She put together an 'off the menu' salmon salad for me with a made from scratch citrus dressing. It was hands down THE BEST salad I've ever had in my life!

Good luck and have a great time!

The TX Renfest is in Plantersville. About 45 minutes outside of Houston.

I appreciate your input. A lot of times, I am told, these festivals use the same vendors or setups. So I will keep an eye out for some fresh cut french fries or chips. Yum.

I will also post my findings if the Renfest emails me back a response.

This lady posted another Renfest in TX with the gluten free options, so I am hoping for the same choices here near Houston.

Thanks!

Too far for me from BFE San Angelo... The potatos were wonderful (spiral cut, they were using power drills!) so if they have those, go for it! Looking forward to your report.

Texas Renfest sent me this reply on gluten free options.

"The Queens Pantry Booth 8 does have gluten free food"

just in case it helps anyone.

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped baby spinach or celery leaves to add a dash of green color to this red dish. Best eaten in first couple days because flavor tends to fade. Leftovers are still good, but not as vibrant. Ingredients 2 medium eggplants, partially peeled and cut into cubes (original recipe says 1 in, but I prefer 1/2 to 3/4 in) 2 tomatoes, peeled and crushed 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced 1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy harissa (I use Mina brand) 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon paprika ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) Salt to taste Preparation     • Heat olive oil in skillet or pot over medium heat. Add all ingredients and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook on low heat for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.       • Serve warm or cold as a side or with bread for dipping. Enjoy!

      I checked consumer labs that I'm a member of they independently check products for safely and claims the wolfs was rated great and bobs redmill buckwheat cereal. Ultra low gotten no dangerous levels of arsenic heavy metals, mold, yeast etc. plus they mention to refrigerate. I wonder if the raw buckwheat they rinse bc it's not toasted like kasha. Toasted removes the grassy taste I have to try the one you mentioned. I also bought Qia which is a quinoa mixed got great reviews.
