Going To Italy For Daughters Wedding

I will be going to Rimini Italy in August for my daughters wedding. I am wondering how I will be safe eating out when I cant communicate. Any ideas? My daughter also is gluten intolerant, so it will effect both of us. The last thing we want to do is bloat up and not be able to get into our dresses....

Italy is perhaps the most celiac friendly country in the world. I don't know all the details, but everything is labeled and restaurants know what it is. I assume your daughter is marrying somebody from Italy?

No he is from Italian decent, but actually was born in NY. He always wanted to be married there and he proposed to my daughter in Rome.

She loves Italy also so ......

It should be beautiful. I am glad to see the Italy is Celiac friendly. Guess i better learn an italian phrase or so.....

I'm traveling to Italy (Rome and Naples) in a week. Any advice? I'm a student on a budget, but I'll take whatever I can get. Thank you so much!

I have never been so I dont have travel advise, but if your asking about eating out this is what one of the people on this site, Antonio said to give them. He is Italian.

Hi!

when you will eating out, I can suggest you that is better if you show this message :

____________________________________________________________

Sono Celiaca , quindi non posso mangiare pasta,pizza,pane orzo e farro.

Tutti i cibi che vengono a contatto con la farina non posso mangiarli.

Il riso lo posso mangiare , ma deve essere bollito nella propria acqua.

Grazie mille

I hope you have fun, do a post when you get back and let us know how it was.

      My Adult daughter is blaming me for her "possible" Celiac disease.

      By cristiana · Posted

      You are most welcome, Marie.  Thank you for getting in touch, because this sort of post will be seen by other parents who find themselves in this position, I am sure there are many.   And as I say, in the long run, I am sure your daughter will be sorry for what she said.  I remember having a go at my dear Mum when I was in my twenties about something and then apologising, saying, "I don't know how you put up with me."  I can't remember her exact words but it was something along the lines of, "I used to say things like to my Mum.  Now it's my turn [to be on the receiving end]!"    😂  Although it isn't very nice to be on the receiving end, it is good your daughter feels safe to say these things to you. We look forward to hearing from you again in due course.

      Not sure if this is Celiac or just a gluten-free intolerance

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Are You Confused About Your Celiac Disease Lab Results? Some people test negative but have a positive biopsy, others test positive but negative biopsy.  This is why it can take years and misdiagnosis of other diseases that Celiac Disease can mimic. The above link is a good read with real life examples. Something I find interesting is that in 1980 or so a new diagnosis was created, Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity, only 10 years after Norman Borlaug won the Nobel Peace Prize for creating our modern wheat and the Green Revolution.

      Trader Joe's strikes again

      By trents · Posted

      @Steve-n-Portland, there is a difference in the requirements to use the label "Gluten Free" and the label "Certified Gluten Free". "Gluten Free" is governed by FDA regulations and has a ceiling of 20 ppm. "Certified Gluten Free" is a labeling convention used by the GFCO, an independent international third party certifying group that uses 10 ppm as its standard.

      Trader Joe's strikes again

      We have had numerous reports from forum participants experiencing gluten reactions from Trader Joe "gluten-free" products. It seems it's not a good place for the celiac/gluten sensitive community to shop.

      Also, a class action lawsuit was launched in 2024 against Trader Joe's re: their " gluten free" everything bagels. They tested at 269ppm. (Personally, I am not sure they will win. The FDA says that the *ingredients* have to be less than 20ppm for a company to label something "gluten-free."  In order to be certified as gluten-free by the GFCO, the *final product* needs to be less than 20ppm. That said, the lawsuit is arguing that most people read that label and assume the final product is safe for people with celiac. Thus, many people were made sick. And being sick can have costly consequences in regard to work or school, depending when one becomes ill.)
