Has anyone had any issues with P F Chang's gluten free options? We ordered gluten-free Mongolian Beef.....but we are unsure if they might have accidentally prepared with non gluten-free ingredients.

No. I've eaten there twice, two different places in two different cities, no issues.

The servers could use my training, but I didn't get sick.

My husband (who has gluten intolerance) has eaten the Mongo Beef entree from the gluten-free menu many times with no reaction symptoms. I've eaten the Ginger Salmon (from the gluten-free menu) many times and never had reactions. I'm much more sensitive than my husband, because I get excruciating gut pain and bloating from eating gluten. So I'm certain PFC's gluten-free menu entree items are truly gluten free.

HOWEVER, if you have other food allergies (esp. soy), bring your own 'coconut aminos' soy free sauce, and inquire about the ingredients in your chosen entree, because PFC (like most Asian style restaurants) frequently use soy in preparation.

If you had reactions after eating gluten-free entrees at PFC, you might consider what other delayed reaction allergies you might have.

I've eaten at pf Changs and been fine. However, I did get sick once, I really think it was the server.

I go to a different one now and I am fine. I do have to avoid the dishes that have soy in them. I got eggdrop soup and shrimp with lobster sauce. I had no reaction when I ate there last month and didn't get sick. I do have my entire table order gluten-free.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
