Gluten-free Sandwich At Starbucks

I don't know if this is the same in the US as it is here in the UK but I've just found out about a Gluten-free sandwich in Starbucks. My sister saw it the other day so I'm going to investigate later in the week.

In the meantime however, here's a link to prove it:

It's the Tuna Nicoise, at the bottom of the page.

The Starbucks in our area don't carry sandwiches. They do have pastry (not gluten-free, naturally) but they typically don't serve food.

The Starbucks in our area do sell sandwiches and wraps as well as pastries and cookies. Still no gluten-free choices, though :D

There are other coffee houses, other than Starbucks. Check around you might be able to find a small non chain one that does gluten free. There is one in Johnstown Colorado, The Mouse Pad, that specializes in Gluten-Free. They are becoming more and more common. And since the small guys don't have to deal with franchise issues, they can be more flexable. If you found one, you could even ask them to carry some gluten free bread, and tell them the issues. You may be supprised at how willing they will be to work with you.

      Technically speaking, the blood test is not required before the endoscopy/biopsy but you may have a hard time finding a physician willing to do an endoscopy/biopsy without it having been preceded by positive celiac blood antibody test scores. Positive antibody test scores provide the justification for going forward with an invasive, expensive procedure that has some medical risks attached to it, especially since the gluten free diet is the antidote for both celiac disease and NCGS. We sometimes do see endoscopies/biopsies to check for celiac disease without positive biopsies but only when there is obvious failure to thrive for no other apparent reason and the patient has deteriorated to the point where it has become life threatening. We also see it sometimes done incidentally when checking for other GI-related medical problems.

      @LeeRoy83, what RMJ is referring to is the test for IGA deficiency, often called "total IGA". It is not a celiac diagnostic test per se. However, if this test score is low (i.e., you are IGA deficient), the celiac IGA test scores cannot be trusted as they will be artificially low which may include false negatives. Possibly, RMJ is correct. But I'm looking at the list of terminologies employed for the various tests as laid out in this article:  For the IGA deficiency test, here is the list: Other Names for the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test: Immunoglobulin A (IgA) Test Total IgA Test Serum IgA Test IgA Serum Levels Test IgA Blood Test IgA Quantitative Test IgA Antibody Test IgA Immunodeficiency Test None of those match very well with the test score you posted which is the "Tissu (Sic) transglutaminase IgA" which lends itself to the acronym, TTG-IGA.

      In general, and I've visited many boutique cheese manufacturing facilities here in Sonoma County, CA, there is no wheat anywhere near them. Dairies generally don't process wheat products, and in cheese making cleanliness is next to godliness--they tend to keep things very clean to the point of sterile so their cheeses won't get contaminated with bacteria that might ruin them.

      Is the blood test required before endoscopy? Can it just go to endoscopy to test. Or would you need to be in gluten diet either way. Can you also be gluten sensitive but not sensitive to cross contamination? Thanks

      Based on the units (g/L) and the normal range having both upper and lower limits, I would think this result is total IgA, not the celiac-specific tissue transglutaminase IgA.  Is there another result for that?
