Eating Out In Toledo, Ohio

Hi Everyone, I am brand new to this message board (I was diagnosed with Celiac on September 6, 2005) and I am very excited to talk some of you who probably know so much more about this than I do. So far I haven't had too much of a problem shopping and making meals at home, but eating out really scares me. I've had some really good experiences and some not so good ones. I live in Toledo, Ohio and so far have only found Outback Steakhouse as the only "safe" restaurant to eat at. However, this restaurant is a little on the expensive side. Where do you guys eat and what dishes do you order?

Also, what are some safe candies to eat? I've been craving sweets but most seem to irritate my stomache. What are some good suggestions?

One more thing....is pop safe to drink? It seams like some of the dark sodas bother me.

Thanks for your help.

-Angie

Angie,

You can eat at Carrabas

Here are the locations...

Toledo (419) 861-2200

3405 Briarfield Blvd., Maumee, OH 43537 Menu 0.00m

Southgate (734) 284-5339

14805 Dix-Toledo, Southgate, MI 48195

Steakhouses are good choices...

Seafood can be ok too (just ask for food to be grilled or cooked in a separate pan with lemon, olive oil and butter)

Baked potatoes are almost always ok -- so are steamed veggies (no seasoning)

Hope this helps....

Biaggis and Blue Pacific Grill at Levis Commons have gluten free menus!

Also Applebees although I'm not convinced they're very thorough because I've had problems there.

For sweets pretty much any soft serve ice cream is good and Wendy's has a lot of gluten-free options including frostys!

Oh and some dark pops have caramel coloring that contains gluten. Pepsi sometimes bothers me but Coke does not. When in doubt call the company or check their website. Kroger's website has an extensive online list of which of their products are gluten-free.

You are responding to a really old post. The posters probably haven't been on this site in years.

Soda may bother you but it does not contain gluten. This is a post about restaurants. Check the Product Section for info on pop or other products. Check the date on posts as product info can change over the years.

      Testing for celiac

      Welcome to the forum, @Bebee, Yes, Celiac Disease has genetic commonalities with MS, hypothyroidism, arthritis, Reynaud, and rosacea.   Usually a gluten challenge is done before endoscopy with biopsies taken,  however I would not recommend a gluten challenge before endoscopy with biopsies for you since you have been gluten free for so long and have so many concurrent autoimmune diseases.   You can still have the endoscopy with biopsy samples taken now.  After several months with dietary changes, you can have another to compare results and check that intestinal health has improved.   You can get a genetic test for Celiac disease which shares genetics with other autoimmune diseases that you have.  Eating gluten is unnecessary for genetic tests. For the rosacea, get checked for SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) that could be causing gastrointestinal symptoms as well as causing skin issues.  Our skin is a reflection of our gastrointestinal health.     Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet has been helpful in keeping my own rosecea, eczema, and dermatitis herpetiformis and other autoimmune diseases in check.   Be sure to be checked for nutritional deficiencies that occur easily in gluten free and dairy free diets. Keep us posted on your progress! References: Clustering of autoimmune diseases in patients with rosacea https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26830864/ And...

      I am new here, I have been diagnosed with Microscopic Colitis (Lymphatic) years ago and have been gluten-free, DF since, but I still can have occasional bouts of diarrhea (still trying to figure that out).  I also have MS, Hypothyroid, Arthritis, Reynaud's and my rosacea has been acting up lately.  What treatment is suggested to help with rosacea?  I would like to know too if there is a test for celiac if you have been gluten-free?   Thank you, Barb

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      Well, that's interesting. I am lactose intolerant and have been managing that for years. I'd be interested in seeing if that changes once I feel better from not eating gluten (one thing at a time for now, though). Helpful to hear about the avenin. I will do some digging and pose that to the dietitian. Grateful for your feedback.
