What's Safe At The Grand Central Station Food Court?

I just found out that I get to go to the UN in New York on a class trip and I am super excited! After we are done, the professor told us that we will stop at the Grand Central Station food court to get dinner before we head home. Does anyone have any recommendations on what is safe and good?

Thanks in advance!!

If I were there, I'd rather call Risotteria and have them deliver a gluten-free pizza or pasta and breadsticks to the station!

Have fun in New York- it is one of the best cities.

Well first off, have a great time! Way back when I didn't know I had the disease, I worked at Grand Central in the Graybar Building. It was fun when I could get a corn muffin, bagel or whatever else I wanted. Now, I suggest you find something beforehand. Not sure if you can call ahead but if you can, go for it. Otherwise, the only safe choice I know of is fruit. Don't risk it, stay healthy. You don't want to get ill while in the greatest city in the world! Not sure what your class trip is doing but if you can, do Broadway, Rockefeller Center, the Central Park area and the museums. I could go on but I won't. Just eat right and it's best to pack your own survival kit.

      Abscesses on legs

      I can't tell yet because it's only been a few days and the issue occurs every 2/3 months!

      Does this definitely suggest Coeliac Disease?

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi @Heather Hill Welcome to the forum. What I do find is that legumes seem to exacerbate both stomach ache, bloating and  backache symptoms such as lentils, beans etc, whilst the gluten containing grains do not obviously seem to. I definitely found lentils and other legumes caused me similar symptoms to you in the early days adopting a gluten free diet.  I think my gut was so sore, all that fibre really hurt it.   Also, oats had the same effect, yet before my diagnosis and going gluten free I could eat them for England.  Thankfully, some years later, I am eating pure oats (ones kept free from contamination with gluten) without issues, but even for a while I couldn't eat those. It is good you are having the biopsy.  Let us know how you get on. Oh - and one other thing.  If you are taking iron supplements, that can cause bloating and digestive issues.   Cristiana

      Test results

      Can you please educate me regarding my recent test results. Ive been gluten free for years. Recent deamidated gliadin Abs, IgA result is 0.9/‘not detected’ but deamidated gliadin Abs, IgG is 26.6/abnormal high. (Normal range is <15.0) So…what can this indicate?

      @LookingForAnswers101Ooh I can also eat coconut, and probably because the ingredients are so highly processed I can eat gluten free bread even though it contains ingredients I can’t usually tolerate. I’m currently trying high lectin foods that've been through a pressure cooker but not much luck so far, pressure cooked mashed potatoes are fine but needs to be cooked completely soft. Hopefully you’ll have more luck than me.
