Six Flags Over Texas

I wrote Six Flags Over Texas about what the heck I could eat at their park, and at least they got back to me fast. Here's the response I was sent:

Dear Chelsea,

Thank you for your letter. I wanted to let you know that

we have several options for you. First, I would like to say I am sorry

you were diagnosed with Celiac disease, I know how very hard that must

be for you...my doctors tested me for the disease as well, but found

that I had Diabetes. To accommodate your needs, there are several

options. As a park rule, we do not allow food or drink into the park

(you can bring bottled water). We do have a lot of guests pack a

cooler, leave it in their car, get their hand stamped for re-entry, and

have lunch at our picnic area in the parking lot. This is a very

popular thing, and our picnic area is nice! It isn't far from the front

gate, and our trams can take you to and from your car.

If you have medical information with you, we will allow you to bring in

a sack lunch (no cooler) for the day. But, honestly...it is a bit of

hassle. Our park is offering a heathier variety of food this season,

and you may find something you like here. I hope this helps...please

write back and let me know if you have any questions. We hope your

visit to Six Flags Over Texas is a memorable one! Good luck to you, and

have fun!

Sincerely, Micah Baker

Thanks, Captain McVague! I guess I'll email back and ask him for specifics? And I'd have to pack the cooler with dry ice, it's like 112 in the summer in Arlington! My wimpy ice packs can't take that!

Any suggestions on what to ask him further? I'll post responses here to share the "wealth" of information!

BUT we got this:

Open Original Shared Link

For when we travel. It just easier, and cheaper. We did not pay that much, got it for about $50 when it was on sale, but its worth alot more then that for all the money we saved in buy junk food where ever we stop. This plus a supply of non-cold foods got us through our last couple cross country trips.

      Being gluten free for two weeks prior to testing can make a difference in the test results if the score is borderline.
    • A Wilson
      Hello, New to Celiac.com, glad I found this site. I have had a lot of GI issues most of my life. Recently my GI issues got so bad I tried a gluten free diet and made a appointment with my GI doctor. I  got the Celiac disease blood test but I  had been gluten free for two weeks before the test. My doctor told me being gluten free for two weeks would not make a difference in the test results. I am not sure I believe that.  I have been reading a lot of articles about Celiac disease and they all give the same information. My GI issues are all gone since my gluten free life started around October 16th 2024, and I  don't want to go back to eating gluten. I am nervous about going back to the doctor for my test results.

      I was also told I had IBS years ago like literally it's just IBS the docter said I've had lots of  the symptoms you say there plus much more but I'm convinced it's not just IBS although I feel very sorry for people who get told this too because IBS is a real problem for people too it's awfull how much ignorance is around in the world these days from docters try the elimination diet like I did gluten free I also did lactose because it was still bothering me I found a real big change I've read some members here say  it can be quite hard to get a diagnosis and help but there is plenty of self help here it's not wrong to self diagnose if you find that it truly is a Life changer be true to your own needs and ask people already suffering for advise it's about your quality of life now and for future this us were I'm heading if I have no luck with docters I will have luck helping myself 🤗

      Thankyou for that information yes I totally relate to that it's a very good read and I've felt like that too to the point were going out for dinner was aniexty before I even left home and it's funny her name is jean because that was my grandma's name and I also  believe she  coeliac undiagnosed because I look back now and she couldn't tolerate most things like me unfortunately she got bowel cancer it's such a shame it's so unrecognised by the medical profession and by people too who do t suffer it because it can be very hard living with it so thankyou so much for this
