Eating Fish Roe At Sushi Places....

I'm interested in trying a local sushi takeout place and the only problem I can see coming up is that they make an awful lot of rolls with fish roe -- I've already talked to the manager about cc issues, but I'm uncertain about the gluten-free status of fish roe. Does anyone know?

I tried doing a search, but "roe" seems to fall under the search engine's radar since it's only three letters.

What you are talking about is 'tobiko'. I heard that it may be sometimes processed with wheat starch so I avoid. Don't know for sure, though...

When I order a maki roll at a sushi place I always ask for no tobiko and no fake crab (also may be processed with wheat starch), just in case.

pamelaD is right, the roe is not necessarily in it's natural state, that is it is often processed. The Triumph dining cards for Japanese cuisine list it in the "please check" category.

Damn. Really? I hate this diet.

The obvious stuff is bummer, but it's this stuff that makes this diet super, super hard.

I need to order the triumph cards.

I agree Geoff. We've been researching it in two languages but it's a slow process for us. The Trimph international pack is helpful not only in restaurants but in planning and shopping and researching dishes that we want to try or bring back.

      I agree with @RMJ, you have multiple positive tests so celiac disease is likely.  This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease.

      One small study found that 50% of celiacs react to the dairy protein "casein" like they do to gluten. It is also common for celiacs to be lactose (the sugar in milk) intolerant, though that often disappears in time as the villi heal. About 10% of celiacs react to the oat protein "avenin" like they do gluten.

      Thank you so much Trents (Scott?)! I have started working with a dietitian and did a deep research dive as soon as I got the diagnosis. I am aware of what you mentioned in the first two paragraphs, and was not aware of anything in the third, so I am grateful for that information, and will talk to the dietitian about that. I think I was most interested in the withdrawal process - it gives me hope that, although I have felt unwell recently, I just need to be patient (not a strong suit). I have printed the article you sent and will look at it more closely. Thanks again!

      Welcome to the forum, @K6315! Gluten withdrawal typically lasts for a period of a few weeks. But there is a real learning curve involved in actually attaining to a gluten free dietary state. Much more is involved than just cutting out major sources of gluten such as bread and pasta. It's all the places that gluten is hidden in the food supply that is difficult to ferret out, like soy sauce and canned tomato soup, canned chili and canned pork n' beans, some "lite" pancake syrups, potato salad, flavorings, etc., etc. Gluten-containing grain products are hidden through alternate terminology and found in places you would never expect.  There is also "cross contamination" where naturally gluten free foods come into contact with gluten-containing grains during farming, transportation, storage and manufacturing processes. Then there is the issue of "cross reactivity" whereby you may be having gluten-like reaction to food proteins whose structure is similar to gluten. Chief among these are dairy, oats (even gluten-free oats), soy, corn and eggs. I am including this article that you might find helpful:
