I honestly have no idea, but thus far... I've not found any Applebee's to have even a remote clue about gluten intolerance issues. So, we stopped going there a long time ago.

That place was our family favorite.

I went to Applebee's about 2 years ago as it was my hubby's favorite place. The manager tried so hard, but I got glutened real bad. I have not been back there. They really tried, but it just is not worth it to me as there are so many other places I can go to.

I had two bites of my boyfriend's from their the other night. Judging only on how I felt (b/c honestly they look at you like you have two heads when you say you are allergic to wheat), it is not gluten free. Must be the marinade or something on it. But also, it could be cc because they put croutons on their vegetables that were on the same plate for some unknown reason.

AMB, I've heard that Chilis has a gluten-free menu and I know it's right near Applebee's where you are. Also Cheeseburger in Paradise has a gluten-free menu.

Let me give you fair warning ... eat at home this weekend, it's parent weekend for IU. :P I'll be stuck waiting for a table at Cheeseburger ... but I think we'll got straight there from my daughter's work at 5 to try to beat the crowd. For me, it will be lunch at Nicks', dinner at Cheeseburger, breakfast at the Hilton Garden Inn (the only breakfast place I feel safe eating since I stand there and watch them cook).

There are a lot of other options, I'd just skip Applebee's and Fridays.

Both Malibu Grill and the University Club downtown are willing to work with you. The manager at Malibu (we were regulars ... our picture is on their website even, but this was before diagnosis) even came over to me one day after my diagnosis and said there was another celiac who came in and he was happy he already had learned all about it from me. Sadly, their Key Lime Martinis are NOT gluten-free!

What in a martini could have gluten in it?

The key lime liquor has graham cracker in it. :( Used to be my favorite!

I waitressed at two different applebee's during college, and their chicken breasts have a marinade on them that has soy sauce. Almost all of their food is prepackaged and full of wheat/gluten unfortunately. SOME of them used to offer a plain chicken breast (not listed on the menu) but honestly, I would be very hesitant to eat there---I do not.

      Could you not try to cut oil out and use a alternative method ? Is there really any health benefits for oil ? If it has caused do much did discomfort for your little one I'd be inclined to source a different way my granddaughter has a nut allergy it's been a roller coaster ride but we cut whatever was causing issues out and found a alternative and she's been fine 🤗

      I too have blood tests booked a Wilson and was told it's ok that I've been gluten free since for over 6 months they have also put  me in for a fecal test for calprotein and a milk allergy has I had to  stop lactose too and a IBS blood test I didn't even know you could test for IBS ? I'm going Tuesday but since reading on here I'm thinking now why bother I've been suffering for that long has I can remember I've reached out to docters since I was in my 20s im now Immy 50s was told IBS and health aniexty was my problem what prompted me to go back again this time was the long list of problems I've also had which they also know about but never said any were connected I've had bad bouts that put me in bed for days I cut carbs out years ago and saw a difference but uneducated just thout see it must be a better way of eating didn't realise it was actually showing me to cut gluten out I've been back and forth to docters that much they have put me down has I have health aniexty causing it in a nut shell it's in my head yet over the years I've had sickness medication scans over my kidneys my liver my tummy for the pain flu like symptoms were put down to my bad rhinitis hair shredding was put down to stress vitamin d deficiency put down to food my 3 herniated discs degenerative and slight sclorocis believe it or not was my posture achy legs syndrome and bad blood circulation to my low mobility threw my back I can go on and on what they tryed to tell me I got that bad i realised it's maybe more than IBS and yes I do suffer aniexty but the way they have made me feel like it's all in my head is time to stop because cutting out gluten and lactose had been the best thing I have done I only went back because I was a little worried after struggling for so long if I had damaged my bowel i just hoped I would get help threw tests sorry for long post but you are not alone with the worry of the test results but if you know yourself then you be your docter and help yourself too but always push for help if   you have abdominal pain it could be other things too it took me 15 years to get a MRI for my back you can imagine my thouts Wen I got my results that it wasn't just my posture had I'd been told even unable to walk was my fault lol  so if you are struggling seek out help anyway you can and be consistent till you get answers 🤗

      Hello @A Wilson, Glad you found us.   There is your answer.  The results from the tests are just more data to the puzzle.

      Hi @Woodster991, You do need to see a health professional to make sure it is not appendicitis.  Rebound tenderness, fever.   Is it gluten?  Yes.  It is also serious vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Either by Celiac Disease malabsortion, food avoidance or just not getting enough.  Consider significantly increasing your intake of vitamin D, B1, Choline, Iodine, B2, B3, B5, B12.  The vitamin D test, (25(OH)D, is simple and accurate. Whole Milk yogurt and berries to populate your gut with benificial bacteria.  I drink Red Bull for energy.  Eat food low in omega 6 fatty acids. The ideal ratio is less than 3 omega 6 to 1 omega 3.  For some, the Modern American Diet is estimated to be more than 14:1.  Very inflammatory.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1. Whether Celiac Disease (1% of the population) or Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population) would take blood tests and endoscopy. It is either that, or you have managed to contract 6 or 7 different diseases at the same time. You don't need a doctor's permission to not eat gluten anymore than you would to eat Chinese food.
