Im a very green pea with this learning the gluten-free diet and I haven't even gone strictly gluten-free yet, though Im working on it. But today Im going to a Braves game and found that they have an entire gluten-free concession stand! Granted Im sure it will be expensive as all get out, but what isn't at a place like that? I just though it was pretty cool that a place like that would have something for us. I think Im going to check it out and see what all they have and of course Ill report back. :) Having to go gluten-free is the only reason I hate that we live in a small area. There aren't a huge choice of things in our area. I think the selection is getting better, but still leaves a lot to be desired.

How wonderful! Part of the fun of a ball game is to get something yummy to eat. It's so nice to know that we Celiacs are being considered.

Have a great time..and report back please?

I hope your team wins! :D

That's awesome! Hope you find something yummy! Who cares what it costs, it's the nostalgia of the park, right? Haha everything costs a lot inside the gates it seems!

And something else I found out is Turner Stadium is one of, if not the only stadium that will allow you to bring in your own food/drinks. It has to be in a soft sided cooler and they will check it.

The gluten-free counter was pretty cool. They had a very limited menu of course but they had good looking stuff. And the price was what all the other venders were. I didn't get anything because I was already sick from being too hot. One thing I did notice is that there is a huge possibility of CC. It was like a vender cart type thing and attached to the other side of the cart, was the Budweiser beer cart. <_<

That's great!!! Its great to hear that places are making attempts now - the Mets ballpark also does the same thing, so if the Yankees just get on board, then I'll be going to more games!!!! Best wishes!

Budweiser :( It would be great if they put a gluten-free beer on the other side! However, good to have a choice out too!

      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.
