ARCHIVED Gluten Free In Estes Park Colorado
GFestes replied to GFestes's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

ARCHIVED Carl's Jr. - How Do I Get Them To Not Cross-Contaminate While Making My Gluten Free Order?
GFestes replied to HowdySunshine's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
I only trust 2 fast food restaurants so far. Carl's is one of them -- but I only have experience with ONE of their restaurants. They were around the corner from my office.

As we understand it, bacon, ham, and sausage can attract gluten during the curing process. Fillers may be added to meat (most notably sausage). Turkey may be injected with gluten (to appear plump). Marinades may be used on any prepared meat. We have only come across bacon containing gluten once. It was an inexpensive package in a house brand. I read...

I must be gluten free as I am EXTREMELY sensitive to even the slightest cross contamination. I now live in Estes Park, Colorado. While many restaurants in my former town have learned to serve gluten free dishes, I am just beginning to learn about Estes. Many Estes Park restaurants offer gluten free options. Most do not offer the printed gluten-free...

GFestes replied to ArtC's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
I have Celiac Disease and EXTREMELY sensitive to ANY cross contamination. I now live in Estes Park and I eat regularly at Poppy's and occasionally at Mama Rosa's. (both owned by the same couple).
