Great, do let me know! Would love to eat at a food truck.

How awful. It is so fundamentally wrong for a hospital kitchen staff to be improperly trained. And agreed, JessicaNYC, everyone in the food industry should know about Celiac and food allergies & sensitivities. Definitely encouraging to hear about your little sister, and I have a friend who is in culinary school now and has had similar training - hopefully...

Cool! Were they careful about pita CC?

Wanted to offer some encouragement! You can take as much medication through security as you need - just declare it to TSA as medically necessary. I routinely fly with a big bag of meds in addition to the standard allowance of liquid toiletries, and carry on a nebulizer for asthma in addition to my carryon bag. And the food restrictions aren't all that...

Was hoping to buy some Chartreuse and was looking to see whether it is gluten-free, and came across your post. How great! And isn't that just about the most charming, reassuring company reply ever? Thanks a lot for investigating and posting two years ago. Also, love your username - my aunt has a dog named Gypsy Moon, Gyp for short.

Oh no! I used to live near Brunswick, that's sad to hear.

Ah, was not aware of this. Thanks for clearing up my misinformation.

I'm not saying most ground meat isn't perfectly safe, just that I have occasionally seen pre-seasoned ground meat with 'natural flavoring' listed, which could be from wheat - and not every meat company discloses the source. Usually in these cases the flavoring seems to be herb-based, like rosemary oil, but it's still good to check with the company.

Since OP did not capitalize ragu: was it Ragu brand sauce or actually a homemade "ragu" style sauce? If homemade and containing meat, pre-packaged ground meat can have seasonings that you might want to check for gluten.

When traveling somewhere where I won't have access to a safe kitchen, I usually take along a cooler full of meals prepared in advance at home and a bag full of shelf-stable snacks. Think about what does well as leftovers and make a few large batches of hearty recipes (I usually do chili, lasagna, chicken noodle soup, etc) for main courses and a few lighter...

Hope I've caught you before you leave. Noticed your two 12 hour travel days - ouch! Make sure you are stocked with plenty of food on those days - enough to get you through without buying anything on the road - because airports, rest stops and gas station convenience stores are just the pits when it comes to finding safe gluten-free food. Despite all the...

Hi anna, are you talking about anaphylaxic egg allergy or egg intolerance? As far as I know, there is no proven connection between anaphylaxic allergies and celiac disease. As far as intolerances go, the reason some people might tolerant eggs in baked goods, but not in other forms, is that the amount of egg in a baked good might be relatively small...

Second love2travel on baking fish in parchment paper or foil. One nice flavor combination is with thin potato slices, cherry tomatoes, a bit of thyme, olive oil and salt.

Jaywalker, sorry to hear you've had trouble with the chocolate dessert. I have not had any of Alpro's soya desserts (do not tolerate tapioca well) but do eat their soya yogurt. Haven't had a problem with it, and am curious to know if you do alright with it as well. And an aside for the others: as far as I know Alpro is only in Europe.

No doubt about it, all three are safe for Celiacs.
