ARCHIVED Restaurants with Flour in the Air
Zozo16 replied to Zozo16's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
I am more worried about if the flour in the air will contaminate the food enough for it to affect me. I am not sure how sensitive I am. I just found out in May. I do not have a gallbladder as well, so it makes it difficult to determine what is causing the stomach upset. I accidentally ate about 8 pretzels that were not gluten-free and ended up bloating, getting... -
I am constantly getting warned about restaurants that seem extremely knowledgeable about gluten free and have a great menu, but can't guarantee it because they have flour in the air.

I have read that all types of hard liquor are ok because the distillation process completely removes gluten. Plus, there are obviously the gluten free beers that are... -
Celiac Sensitivity?
Zozo16 replied to Zozo16's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Thank you for the great advice. That definitely helped clear up some of my confusion. Considering my super busy lifestyle, not eating out is probably not an option, but I am trying to cook my own meals as much as possible. -

Celiac Sensitivity?
-
Hi everyone! I am a complete newbie to the gluten-free diet and was diagnosed with Celiac disease just a couple of weeks ago. I have been hearing a lot about some people being more sensitive than others. For instance, you will need to see how sensitive you are to determine how much you need to worry about cross contamination. However, I thought that sensitivity...
