First Trip -- To New Smyrna Beach

Just a brief note about the fact that I just travelled for the first time since going gluten-free (boy, did I ever need to get out of town! But I was scared). I was only gone for a few days and mostly ate in at my friend's house, but I did take the Triumph dining cards out to dinner at a place called Mi Mexico (local) and then to Shells (this is a chain, isn't it?). Both times, the cards managed to get a great deal of good attention for our table -- the chefs came out to talk to me at both restaurants and the waitstaff was great. I didn't get glutened. My friend's family was super-impressed and (after some initial trepidation about the whole situation) now want me to come along any time they dine out!

I can't wait to get those cards! I have them on order & I think they'll really help. It's so hard to get across all the nuances especially with the waitstaff as intermediaries... Great to hear the cards worked so well for you.

That is awesome!!! I love my dining cards too and they have been the best investment that I have made so far. It really does help simplify the communication between you and the whole staff.

      Thank you for the information. I did order/receive GliadinX to have on hand in the event of suspected exposure.

      Just had a letter through from the Celiac team, they’ve diagnosed me through my bloods, no endoscopy/biopsy needed. I guess I’ll be sticking around on this forum and I’m sure I’ll be back soon. thanks for all your help

      I have no specific recommendations but I would suggest looking for products that are advertised as produced in a dedicated gluten-free facility. That should eliminate one possible route of cross contamination. It doesn't guarantee that none of the ingredients going into the product are totally gluten free but is should eliminate adding more CC to the mix via processing machinery.  One of the issues you may be experiencing is that testing has shown that a significant percentage of "Certified Gluten Free" products can test far in excess of 10ppm. There was an article appearing in this forum back last summer outlining the results of testing that showed this to be true. So, it may be somewhat of a pig in a poke when you buy this stuff, regardless of how it is billed. It may be safe for you if it actually fits within the stated requirements of it's billing.

      I can still have a reaction from “certified gluten free” products I don’t like having to use the eat and see what my body does approach are there really any purely gluten free products or do I just have to make all of my own food?
