Sushi?

Hi everyone,

Well, I am going on FOUR years gluten-free and I still haven't had sushi. I am going out with a friend tomorrow night for sushi and need to know what to watch out for. I need to be ultra-careful, since I am so sensitive to gluten and have had a few really big disasters after eating out in the past month.

Any SUSHI safety recommendations? I know to be careful of the soy sauce...but what else could pose hidden danger?

Thanks so much!

Hi Kat,

I love sashimi, and I ran across this discussion from 2005 on these boards during a bout of insomnia & bookmarked it. It looks really helpful & is REALLY detailed.

Good luck and post how it goes.

Hi!

Bring your own gluten free soy sauce. Be careful of the grilled eel, there's usually a sauce and it may be soy based. Also, don't eat the "fake" crab meat, it's processed with gluten products.

I usually stick to simple combinations.

Hi Kat!

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE sushi, and its one of the few things I seem to eat these days. I always always always eat it after getting sick, because it's not heavy on the tummy. As a matter of fact, I'm eating it tonight because I got sick yesterday :(

I normally get the Philly Roll, (my favorite), which is avocado, salmon and cream cheese. Avocado rolls are great, tuna rolls, spicy tuna, salmon rolls - all great!! As far as nigiri, salmon, tuna, etc. I stay away from the eel, because of the eel sauce, as well as the crab because its more often than not imitation. Everything else I've NEVER had a problem with.

Make sure you check, because some places serve it on wooden platters, which is no good. I guess soy sauce gets on them, and you can't ever really de-contaminate wood. You can bring your own soy sauce, or just go without, which is what I do. And if you are going with someone who is using soy sauce, just make sure you seperate all the sushi from each other before you start eating, otherwise their soy sauce will drip from the chopsticks onto the plate, or could touch a neighboring roll.

Hope this helps!!

Here is what I usually get:

Appetizer - Edamames - steamed salted beans in the pod

Sushi - Usually 6 pieces "Nigiri" style, which is traditional. Normally, I get Tuna, Salmon and Octopus. Depending on how they treat their seaweed (if they put soy sauce on it, which is common - the I don't get it), I sometimes get a Philly roll or california roll (substitute shrimp for crab).

mmmm... philly roll...

Damn Casien Intolerance!

I'm just scared of Sushi with my Gluten-free Casein-free diet and the language barrier.

I should get those dining cards.

      Popcorn pain

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @JenFur! You must be relatively new to the celiac journey. I wish it were as simple as just having to cut out gluten and all our gut issues magically disappear. It is very common for those with celiac disease to develop intolerance/sensitivity to other foods. Often it is because the protein structure of some other foods resembles that of gluten. Sometimes it is because damage the damage done to the gut lining by celiac disease wipes out cells that produce enzymes needed to break down those foods. Sometimes it is because the "leaky gut syndrome" associated with celiac disease causes the immune system to incorrectly identify other food proteins as threats or invaders. The two most common non-gluten foods that cause trouble for a lot of celiacs are dairy and oats. But soy, eggs and corn are also on that list. Sometimes these non-gluten food intolerances disappear with time and the healing of the villous lining of the small bowel.

      Popcorn pain

      I love popcorn but it doesn't love me.  Right now my gut hurts and I am bloated and passing gas.  Am I just super sensitive. I thought popcorn was gluten free 🤔

      Type 1 diabetes (4year old) and positieve ttg

      Welcome to the forum, @marinke! "Type 1a diabetes (DM1) is associated with an increased risk of celiac disease (celiac disease) (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/35/10/2083/38503/IgA-Anti-transglutaminase-Autoantibodies-at-Type-1 "The prevalence of celiac disease (celiac disease) in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is 5.1%, and it is often asymptomatic (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/48/2/e13/157637/Diagnostic-Outcomes-of-Elevated-Transglutaminase So, this is 5x the rate found in the general population.

      Long term recovery

      By Mari · Posted

      Hi James47, You are less than 2 years into your recovery from Celiacs.  Tell us more about the problems you are having. Do you just want to get rid of belly fat or are you still having symptoms like gas and bloating.    For symptoms you may need to change your diet and take various supplements that you cannot adsorb from the foods you eat because of the damage caused by the autoimmune reaction in your small intestine.

      Type 1 diabetes (4year old) and positieve ttg

      By marinke · Posted

      My daughter (4 years old) has type 1 diabetes since she was 1. Therefore, every year a screening is done. We live in the Netherlands. Every year the screening was fine. This year here ttg is positive, 14, >7 is positive. IGA was in range. Could the diabetes cause this positive result? Or the fact that she was sick the weeks before the brood test?
