I have heard the same thing! They are super conscious of cross contamination issues, too. :) Have a BLAST!

I have only been gluten free since October of 2011, we went to Disney in February 2012. My first gluten free meal was at the Liberty Tree Tavern for dinner, when I made reservations ahead of time I asked them to notate gluten free, but failed to realize that dinner at this resturant was family style. NO fear, we were seated the cook came out introduced hisself and told me that the meat was served with stuffing on the same plate and he would make sure it was all seperated for me, he made me gluten free gravy and offered to make gluten free rolls, so while everyone enjoyed the items filled with gluten I had the same without, it was WONDERFUL!!! This is how the rest of our trip went, with the exception of downtown disney, there the cook did come out and talk to me, reassured me he would be the person to get my order when the waiter wrote gluten free on it and explained everything I could and could not have. So they didn't necessarily make anything special for me, but had many options. I spent 3 days there and never got any gluten (I have immediate DH when I get the smallest amount, so I would know quickly) Hope you have just as good an experience as I did!

Disney did a great job for me at their new resort in Hawaii. Make reservation ahead of time and you'll be well taken care of.

Have fun!

This is why I need to learn how to search before creating posts! lol

I am in the same boat!

Disney is simply amazing for gluten-free. They have lists they will email you, plus if you speak to the manager when you arrive at any of the restaurants in the park they will bend over backwards to make sure you get safe food! I was served burgers on Udi's buns, fries out of dedicated fryers, gluten-free BBQ ribs, and the big smoked turkey drumsticks you see everywhere are safe and delish.

Make sure you go to Raglan Road Irish pub in Downtown Disney (make reservations for a table or you'll have an obnoxious wait) and get some gluten-free fish and chips or onion rings from their dedicated gluten-free fryer! :)

And my friend Chef Mike who has been a chef at Disney for 14 1/2 years says & I quote:

"Years ago Disney NEVER gave out their recipes Now you can buy Disney cook books!! The location I have been at for 11 yrs even prints recipes to hand out to the guest if and when they ask. If we don't have it handy there is a actual chef that we forward requests to that emails them to you. "

So when you eat that mouthwatering gluten-free Disney food you can ask for a printout of the recipe!!!!! How cool is that?

And Skylark ---- I just got the Raglan Road gluten-free fry batter recipe. I will post it this evening when I get a chance. YUM!

tongue.gifI'll start a new thread for it.

      I think, after reading this, that you areso traumatized by not being able yo understand what your medical advisors have been  what medical conditions are that you would like to find a group of people who also feel traumatized who would agree with you and also support you. You are on a crusade much as the way the US Cabinet  official, the Health Director of our nation is in trying to change what he considers outdated and incorrect health advisories. He does not have the education, background or experience to be in the position he occupies and is not making beneficial decisions. That man suffered a terrible trauma early in his life when his father was assonated. We see now how he developed and worked himself into a powerful position.  Unless you are willing to take some advice or  are willing to use a few of the known methods of starting on a path to better health then not many of us on this Celiac Forum will be able to join you in a continuing series of complaints about medical advisors.    I am almost 90 years old. I am strictly gluten free. I use 2 herbs to help me stay as clear minded as possible. You are not wrong in complaining about medical practitioners. You might be more effective with a clearer mind, less anger and a more comfortable life if you would just try some of the suggestions offered by our fellow celiac volunteers.

      Thus has got to STOP , medical bit believing us! I literally went through 31 years thinking it was just a food allergy as its downplayed by medical if THEY weren't the ones who diagnosed us! Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.
