Hi All, I am considering purchasing the Triumph Dining cards. Do you think they are worth it? We went to sushi last night and trying to explain my daughters gluten restrictions was impossible.

I am curious if the wait staff and chefs really respond positively or if they are annoyed by the card.

Thanks!

I have used them in Mexican and Chinese restaurants and were well accepted. But someone at the restaurant needs to speak English well enough to convey what they can offer.

I would approach the manager, though.

Thanks Lisa! We got to this sushi place a lot so hopefully they will accommodate. They were overwhelmed by my gluten questions but they don't speak the best English.

I think you may be able to find some translations on line for free.

I use the Triumph cards all the time, and they've really helped.

      nuts.com -- no longer Celiac safe?

      By lehum · Posted

      The article was shocking - and horrifying - to read. For me it’s a good argument to cook as many fresh foods as possible. I personally can’t do grain free because I lose weight too quickly and don’t feel full, but I will be sticking to companies I trust like Lundberg for rice.    I live in Germany and thankfully, labeling here is more transparent and more trustworthy than it appears to be in the U.S. these days (where I’m also originally from).  I am so sorry to hear this! May you heal quickly. ❤️

      Yes, it is unfortunate that the GFCO seems to have a policy that allows companies that it certifies to lower their guard the longer that they've had their certification. After jumping though the harder GFCO testing requirements for long enough they seem to "rubber stamp" companies and allow them to keep their certification with much less testing going forward. To me this is like having a restaurant where you train the staff one time about how do handle gluten-free foods, and do the training less and less over time, even though you might have high turnover in the industry. People in big food production and supply companies come and go, just like in restaurants, and it's important never to lower your guard.

      Diagnosed w Celiacs, but reacting to gluten-free Digiorno Pizza AND Kraft Zesty Italian Dressing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      There are tons of ingredients that can cause IBS-like issues in anyone, but especially in newly diagnosed celiacs, and it would probably make sense for us to do an article on that topic, but here is an article that might be helpful:

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      Thanks but that amount of gluten will def have me in chronic pain and discomfort. My hemorrhoids issues are quite severe. Part of the reason I've abandoned diagnosis.

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      Are you exposed to any airborne sources of gluten? We have an older house and constantly fixing something. Cutting into old wall board or plaster can release gluten into the air. Also, the sickest i ever got was from taking care of my neighbor's chickens, they get excited and kick up everything, air filled with dust. Sure enough, their food contained gluten grain.  Any pets? If they are eating gluten, they lick themselves, you pet them .... my pets all eat grain free pet food. If I pet someone else's critters, which I am compelled to do, I immediately was hands.
