    Thank you for the link, I like that she included pictures of the gluten-free food! .... But I am looking for information specifically on Seaworld which is not a Disney resort. I was hoping someone had eaten at Seaworld before. Stephanie

    We are going to Disney next week and will also be visiting Seaworld. We wanted to either do the Breakfast with Elmo or eat lunch at the Shark Grill. Has anyone every eaten at either place? I called the 800# about the breakfast and the lady just said they would have food for my sons to eat but she couldnt tell me what. I was just wondering if anyone had...

    Betty Crocker Fruit Snacks have Gluten Free on their label now so we have tried them a few times in the last month. My son seems to have a reaction to them though. Same with Trix, which are supposed to be ok. Could he be reacting to the food coloring? No reaction with Fruity Pebbles or the Walmart brand of fruit snacks. Anyone else have this problem...

    Yes the baby (i guess really a toddler) is a boy too. When he was right at a year he got a new teacher at daycare and she fed him gluten. After a month or so I started seeing the same signs I had seen with my older son so I had a confrence at school with his teacher, the director and the cook. The teacher didnt understand that flour was from wheat!!!!...

    Hi Sue I just had to tell you... my husband is Jeff too! lol. That is so funny. My children are the only two celiacs. And the oldest boy (4 1/2) is the only one that has been tested. The baby showed terrible gluten signs with very little gluten so that was that. I didnt want to put him through the testiing. My husband and I have not been tested and...

    I did look up Cheeseburger in Paradise and I think that will be great. Also, we have never been there! My little Celiacs are 4 and 2 so I think the mini cheeseburgers will be great. At that age they like different and small. I dont know if we are going to do Dixie Stampede cause of the cost more than the food. Its expensive! Last year we ate at Margaritaville...

    A friend told me about making plain cupcakes and getting lots of toppings and letting the kids do the decorating themselves. I have a 4 yr old so he will love doing that. Also, I just went to a party that had a cupcake cake. It had 12 cupcakes all together and the icing put on so it looked like a cake. But no cutting.... everyone just pulled out a...

    Thanks for posting this! I am going to Myrtle next week and this would be great for the kids. Did you let them know ahead of time about needing a gluten free meal? Or did you tell them when you got there and bought the tickets? Did you eat out anywhere else while you were there? stef.

    Did you go to Myrtle Beach? Eat out anywhere? We are going next week. Last year when we went to margaritaville they had a gluten free menu but I called to make sure they still had it and they dont. stef.

    I actually got the idea from a parent in my son's class. She was going to bring in cupcakes for her twins in a mickey mouse theme and wanted my son to have something of the same look. She called me with the ingredients in the icing and the store was happy to do it. So my son had the same looking cupcake as the rest of the class. Store bought cupcakes...

    We buy Erewhon cereal that is just like rice krispies. They have a few different kinds, all made with brown rice. Some are sweetened with berries and some are just plain. I like the plain ones. Stephanie

    I really feel for you!!! Sincerely! I have enough trouble with gluten but if I had to deal with peanut allergy I would freak Do you keep an epi pen with you or with him? I would have one stored everywhere!!! I actually gave my 13mth old his first peanut butter today and watched him like a hawk. Food is driving me crazy too. www.Lame Advertisement...

    That was my oldest. At 18 months he was severe failure to thrive. He had gross poops a few times a day. But he also looked sick.... he had very skinny arms and big belly and had started refusing food. Maybe there is some other food that isnt agreeing with your oldest. I don't know,,,, I have been doing this for 2 years and still sometimes feel like I...

    Are you giving the baby gluten yet? Our pediatrician said wait till 1 year and now 1 year is here and I am scared to make him sick. But I want to know. So the dr said to wait till 18mths if I wanted to. But now I am reading that waiting too long can cause problems too. This is all very difficult!! Stephanie

    I have a 4 year old with celiac and a 1yr old that is not tested but is gluten free. The baby is not growing the way he should and keeps going up and down on the growth chart. He has had gluten (oops at school) but only a couple of times a few months ago. My question is what else would make his poo look like the food isn't being digested. I remember...

    Thank you for posting that!! I just sent my husband to the store for food coloring and he came back with the Betty Crocker Gel Colors with "modified food starch" listed. AARRRGGG We have been on this diet for 2 years, hasn't he figured it out by now! Anyway, glad to know these are ok and now I can make blue cupcakes. Stephanie

    ARCHIVED Bk Fries

    mcsteffi replied to pnltbox27's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    I have gotten ff at Burger King and found a stray onion ring. So either they fry them together or they put the in the same bin after they are cooked. I have had better luck at McDonalds than BK. Though, I have learned to say my son is allerigic to bread rather than saying wheat. I have been told many times at fast food places,,, "its white bread not wheat...

    I am very frustrated with school. I dont know if the teacher didn't notice or just didn't feel it was important to tell me. Last week they had taken the cookie off of an ice cream sandwich and gave him the ice cream. How stupid is that? I told her that was like scraping peanut butter off of a piece of bread and feeding it to someone allergic to peanuts...

    My son is 3 1/2 so any information I get out of him is questionable. But Friday at school they were having pizza, so I sent his gluten-free pizza for him to eat. Well, when he came home he said he didnt feel good. When I asked him why he said he traded his pizza with his friend. That means he ate a real pizza. He had terrible D last night and today he...

    They are great! The Mi-Del chocolate chip cookies are really good too. We all eat them. And at my store they are a much better price than most of the other cookies. Stephanie

    I must have the double wheat fish food.... Ours has Wheat flour, Wheat germ meal, Rolled oats and Wheat gluten meal. Both of the brands we have contain 3 or 4 wheat ingredients. Stephanie
