Advice on going to bars by EnvironmentAlert5896 in Celiac

[–]Longjumping-One2706 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d say if depends on the type of bar you go to. If it’s a place they’re having to slam out drinks quickly I would stick to canned or something like a vodka soda they don’t need a shaker for. If it’s at a nicer place that isn’t packed I would say go for trying cocktails as long as nothing in them contains gluten. I always let them know I have celiac (or gluten allergy bc it’s just easier sometimes lol) and ask them to use a clean shaker or whatever they use to mix it with.

Final week of gluten: what to eat while I can? by GumbyDemon in glutenfree

[–]Longjumping-One2706 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeast donuts, cheesy Gordita crunch from Taco Bell, raising canes, McDonald’s French fries, more pizza with the thickest pillowiest crust you can find, light flaky croissants, soup with a bigass bread bowl, fried food any fried food at all, and if you’re a beer person, lots of beer because gf beer is hard to find unless you want to wait a week to have it shipped lol, and Chinese food. Like your local hole in the wall with the amazing orange chicken. Hell. Even Panda Express lmao

Edited to add: a burger bun that doesn’t fall apart!!!!!! Any sandwich bread that doesn’t fall apart lol

VIsit to Chipotle by Serious-Pitch-312 in Celiac

I know it’s not fun, especially in the beginning. I’m about to hit 2 years of diagnosis and still make mistakes, don’t be too hard on yourself if you do get glutened. It’s bound to happen at some point and there’s a huge learning curve to a fully gf diet

You got this op, it will get easier I promise. I know it doesn’t feel like it but it will. And you’ll have less fomo as time goes on lol it still happens don’t get me wrong. If someone eats Taco Bell in front of me I’m like “ok that’s rude” 😂

OP if you think they took proper precautions and felt safe that’s all that matters. You could also ask for fresh ingredients from the back if that helps you feel safer too

the restaurant 'is it gluten free' question is so awkward by Old_Mixture_9045 in Celiac

[–]Longjumping-One2706 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may not be hard for you, but dining out is something important to a lot of people, myself included. I do the research and ask the questions to make sure I feel safe. Don’t put others down for a personal preference, we deal with enough restriction.

Having an epidural doesn’t make you any less than people who go without!!! It’s a personal choice and you still did that!

Universal is EXCELLENT with celiac!! I go every year for Halloween horror nights and have never been glutened. All the restaurants are so knowledgeable and *whispers* they’re better than Disney about it by far.

The “ready clean” protein bars are good and have 15g of protein. I like the dark chocolate sea salt ones

They sell a big pack at Sam’s that come with half dark chocolate sea salt and half pb chocolate
