Pf Chang's - Crunchy Stuff In Lettuce Wraps

Hi all!

Whenever I go eat PF Chang's I get my food to go. My usual order is Lettuce Wraps and the Chang's Spicy Chicken. And maybe some cake. :D The other night I went there with a friend, and we ate in the restaurant. I ordered the Lettuce Wraps and they were served on top of some crunchy white noodles. When I order the Lettuce Wraps to go, they are not served with those noodles. So what are those noodles? Are they rice? I ended up feeling very sick that night and all day yesterday, and I have no idea if it was the Lettuce Wraps or the Spicy Chicken. This is the first time I've ever gotten sick from Chang's since going gluten-free. My Lettuce Wraps definitely looked different than my friend's - hers were much darker and richer looking.

Thanks!

They are rice noodles and most likely not on your to-go meal is because they would get soggy.

There is always a chance for a mix-up, but I have yet to hear of one. If you notice, even the plates that they serve are different shaped to aid the waitstaff.

As for the plates, I think it depends on the PF Changs. When I contacted them, it wasn't the shape of the plates, but whether they were plain white or had a logo on it.

I always eat the little white crunchy things and have never had a problem with them.

Thanks for your input, everyone! I have no idea what made me sick, but I hope to have better luck next time!

      Confused about test results.

      By trents · Posted

      There is also something called "seronegative celiac disease" in which there is damage to the villous lining of the small bowel but no celiac antibodies are produced by the immune system. It's not very common and there can be numerous causes including infections, some medications and even some nongluten foods.  If you have dermatitis herpetiformis, that is proof positive you have celiac disease since there is no other known cause for it. If you get it biopsied during an outbreak it can be used to establish a diagnosis of celiac disease, therefore. But not every dermatologist knows how to biopsy dermatitis herpetiformis correctly and it can be difficult to get an appointment with one on short notice.

      Ty very helpful I’m in the process of getting in with a new gI doctor and will ask more about all that then and yes the rash is exactly like that. I have a half cousin with celiac but that’s it in my whole family and idk if that matters as I see it is hereditary and others say the the only in the family with it. Either way this was very much appreciated ty again.

      Question

      By fritz2 · Posted

      My first post includes the blood test report done by the second doctor.  They told me to take two Naproxen tablets per day.  Absolutely worthless but I'm doing it.  I get to visit the doctor again in two weeks.  These doctors are worthless.  I had to clue them in to the fact that they used to treat me for fibromyalgia 15 years ago with vicodin until some political stooge had it removed from the market.  Then I found out about my grandchild with celiac so I removed gluten from my diet and got better.  (I had hashimoto's then and still do).  They don't read my medical record, or they don't comprehend it.  Either case they're worthless turds with no answers that are helpful.
