has anyone experienced any problems with the lemonade at Chickfila. They fresh squeeze their lemonade so I am concerned about cross contamination.

Sorry, I've never had the lemonade. I would be more concerned with cc with the food than the lemonade ... fast food is risky, though they're grilled chicken salad (minus the croutons and sunflower seeds) and fries (be sure it's a dedicated fryer, every one I've been to has had a dedicated fryer) are okay.

Sorry - I've never had the lemonade either.

The Triumph Dining Guide 2006-07 says that ALL BEVERAGES at Chic-fil-A are gluten free - not specific for lemonade.

I had the lemonade yesterday with no adverse results. Because of the high acid content, I don't drink it often but have never had a problem when I do.

I have recently been writing a series of reviews of gluten free meals at fast food restaurants, and Chick-fil-A was one of them. I had liked them because they had a gluten free menu available at www.chick-fil-a.com/gluten.asp. According to this menu, all of the beverages were gluten free.

I also liked them because they used separate fryers for their fries and breaded chicken. It meant I had a place to get my kid some fries.

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      By K6315 · Posted

      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!

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      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:

      Prior to being diagnosed, I had a gluten heavy diet. I stopped all gluten exactly a week ago and have continued to feel sick in the ways I did prior to going gluten free - primarily on and off nausea, brain fog, and fatigue. Wondering if this is normal and, if so, how long can I expect to feel this way?

      Some of the largest contract manufacturers in the U.S. include companies like NutraScience Labs, Capsugel (part of Lonza), and Thorne Research. These companies produce supplements for a wide range of brands, from small startups to well-known names.
