    I wrote them about their Gluten Free Menu. Here is there response, Hello, Thank you for taking the time to write to us. The following is a list of items on our menu that are, or can be, made gluten-free. They are: MUSSELS MARINARA MIXED GREEN SALAD DI BEPPO "1893" SALAD CHICKEN WITH LEMON (Ask for this not to be dusted in flour) CHICKEN...

    Does anyone know what else can cause DH besides gluten? I have been on a gluten-free diet for 7-8 years. I take Dapsone daily. As long as I take Dapsone, I am generally fine. If I miss taking it for a few days, I get DH around my joints, eyes, clothing pressure areas. Has anybody gone through this? Thoughts????

    The short answer would be to perform a goofle search of "gluten-free pizza sauce". I use Muir Glen Pizza Sauce and "Tony's" I buy them at Trader joe's and Whole Foods.

    I was under the impression that MCD's quarter pounders were gluten-free (no bun of course), but the regular burgers were not gluten-free. Thoughts? Bronco p.s. I saw Supersize me too. It was good....but they guy ate there EVERY meal for a month. I have MCD's once or twice a month...its all relative

    Father, In my opinion, as a former restaurant worker for 9 years, it is impossible to guarantee any food is gluten free. Having said that, your risk of cross contamination is lower at various places. As long as your local Maggiano's General Manager/Chef can boil the pasta in clean water, use a clean pan for mixing the sauce with the pasta, it should...

    I just had Bards Dragon Gold for the first time this past weekend. It is a bit hoppy, I thought it was similar to Fat Tire.......in any event it is beer. The Ohio locations to buy it are listed on their website. www.bardsbeer.com enjoy

    Jenvan, I went back to Cincinnati this weekend for a wedding. The rehearsal dinner was at Maggiano's. They made me a gluten free spiral pasta dish with tomato sauce and parm cheese. It was awesome. The chef also sount out a gluten-free Raspberry sorbetto for dessert. I was in heaven.....

    It is also possible to be gluten intolerance but not have Celiac Disease (some people do not have positive tests), the gluten-free diet helps their lives just the same.... Food for thought......

    1. Bring your "Celiac Card" with you to give to the chef. 2. When the hostess seats you, ask her to bring the manager before the waiter gets there. 3. E-mail a restaurants HQ before you go (I try to e-mail one or two a week -- even if I am not planning to go -- for later use) 4. Order a salad with no croutons, oil and vinegar dressing on the...

    You couldn't pay me to eat a rice cake....not a chance....they are awful! The beer thing will be remedied this year. Bards beer will soon be available nationwide (I am going back to Ohio this weekend and it is available there!!! HOORAY). Folks with celiac disease or GI have to accept the fact that their diet is a benefit and an inconvienence. It all...

    I'm 6 feet and 2 inches. I weigh around 230. Everytime I go to a Celiac "event", people are suprised that I have Celiac. I guess some people think it can only happen to skinny folks (its not that I'm chubby - I'm just a corn-fed Ohio boy).

    Has anyone tried their poroducts?? Open Original Shared Link I received an e-mail saying they were going to start offering their products in the Southwest....anyone have a link to the story???? Thanks Bronco

    This website should help ya www.glutenfreeinsd.com FYI, Donna Korn lives in San Diego (HEAD of R.O.C.K. -- Raising our celiac Kids -- she would have a good recommendation) I used to see a guy in La Jolla...he was SUPER expensive though, he knew everything about Celiac.... Honestly, for my money, I only use the Doctors for blood tests and prescriptions...

    Their baked potato soup is great and gluten-free (according to their customer service dept)!
  16. VegasCeliacBuckeye
    Hannah, I live in Vegas - you actually have a number of options. Here is some advice 1. No Buffets -- too much cross contamination -- it sucks, but its reality 2. Outback Steakhouse is on the Strip! 3. Any of the nicer restaurants should be able to accomodate you (especially steakhouses) - I have had good experiences at Fix in the Bellagio...

    What are the symptoms? How long have they been present? How often do they occur? Abdominal cramping/bloating Abdominal distention Acidosis Appetite (Increased to the point of craving) Back pain (Such as a result of collapsed lumbar vertebrae) Constipation Decreased ability to clot blood Dehydration Diarrhea (See Stools below) Edema...

    My first 4 years with this disease were up and down. I would have good weeks and bad weeks. I would slip up (unintentionally and carelessly) snd suffer the consequences. Over time, it gets easier. I am in year 8 now. I still have to take Dapsone because of DH and every once in a while there are tummy problems, but I have come a long way. I...

    Try Brio Tuscan Grille I sed to work there and the staff can be really accomodating (good food!) Google "Brio Restaurant Orlando"

    I had a pretty good Chili's experience the other day. The Baked Potato Soup was awesome (and gluten-free ). I also had the Ribeye and Mashed Potatoes (no gravy). Yum yum

    Most places rarely use REAL wasabi -- too $$$$$$. They use a mix. I know the mix has some type of starch, but they vary. Be careful.. Bronco

    Elephant ears are made of the same thing as funnel cakes -- puffy dough and loads of powdered sugar. Very common at State/County Fairs I miss them....

    I guess this is one of those topics that some Celiacs are defensive about. Some people think we look down on them for telling them how to live and diet right. I have never understood this argument. I look at food and salivate over "pizza and bread", but there is NO WAY I would ever eat that stuff again. The pleasure from 30 seconds of chewing a piece...
