PLAIN fries cooked in a dedicated fryer are usually OK unless handled by someone who has previously handled a bun. SEASONED fries are usually NOT OK.

Most mayonnaise is OK until someone sticks the knife back into the jar while making a sandwich. You need your own jar or at least one of those upside down squeeze bottles.

McDonald's fries may or may not be safe. These are very controversial. We do not eat them because they contain not only wheat but dairy and we are allergic.

Also, fries are not usually baked in restaurants. They are fried. Other things that might be fried in that oil could cause contamination. As the other poster stated, seasoned fries are usually not gluten-free. I have also seen some fries that are battered. Beer battered fries are becoming more popular here. They would not be gluten-free either.

Chick Fil A fries are safe - just make sure you ask the manager to verify that only the fries were cooked in the oil. I asked at the Chick Fil A that I go to and the are safe.... the manager and owner made me feel very confident that nothing else touches the oil.

Watch out for chick fil A. They fry their fries in peanut oil. Luckily I looked them up online before going there.

If you're okay with peanuts, then pig out! They look good.

      Antibodies

      By Judi Magner · Posted

      If you test positive for celiac antibodies does this mean you positively have celiac disease? I have been gluten free for many years so I don't really want to start eating gluten again to get diagnosed thru endoscopy.

      Enegy level extremely low

      By Sicilygirl · Posted

      Hello,   Just wondering if anybody can help me out with energy levels. I am taking iron, vitamind3 and multivitamin as well and I cant seem to get back to how I was before. How long do the villi take to heal? I am in my 50s and I read somewhere that it can take longer to heal. I just got diagnosed in October2024 and I am brutely impatient any help would be greatly appreciated. Sophia

      HI @Kwinkle I am not sure where you are posting from, but here in the UK it is most definitely gluten free.  I think you ought to try contacting the manufacturers or distributors locally to see what they say.  Cristiana https://www.boots.com/gaviscon-peppermint-liquid-relief-oral-suspension-300ml-10023763#:~:text=or during pregnancy.-,This product is sugar free and gluten free.,are pregnant or breast feeding.

      Can food allergies like milk and soy flatten villi?

      By Lotte18 · Posted

      Hi Matt,  So sorry you're having to suffer all this.  I'm just chiming in on your dairy question because the answers are often far from what we or our doctors assume.  For example, I thought I could go back to having dairy once my intestinal villi healed.  I was fine for about 8 months.  And then I wasn't.  Started having weird issues with maintaining my balance while walking.  Even my PCP who has celiac didn't relate it to dairy.  Had to have a second endoscopy with enzyme testing.  Sure enough my pancreas no longer produces enough Lactase to process lactose.  My GI just brushed it off as, "common for people with celiac."    I'd never seen or heard that before.  I should have pressed him on it.  Common for celiacs who are women?  Common for celiacs of a certain age group?  But I was so surprised I didn't say anything.  Maybe Scott has more information on celiac and pancreatic function.  At least I'm back to walking upright!

      Hi Christina, i’m interested in this gaviscon Dimension but when I look it up on Amazon, I don’t see that it says it’s gluten-free?   Thank you Sorry, not dimension - it was supposed to say ‘that you mentioned’. Duh 🙄
