I was diagnosed in January, and I haven't ventured out to any buffets. I only do restaurants with gluten-free menus. Does anyone have any general suggestions for what to pick? I'm going to Vegas next week, and I don't want to miss out on the Flamingo's seafood buffet!

It is my personal opinion that a "Buffet" is actually another way to say "Cross-Contamination Guaranteed". My daughter has not had good luck at all with buffets and as a rule, we stay away from them if at all possible. Even salad bars have been dangerous for her, she is very sensitive. Use your own judgement, but take a look at how messy people are at a buffet or salad bar, when they have never had to keep foods apart they take it totally for granted. Sharing serving utensils, food spills, etc. Good Luck

      Symptoms…looking for solidarity

      By Nogluten4thisgirl · Posted

      Hello all,  I’m in the process of testing for celiac and I can’t wait to hear back if I have ancestry dna for celiac.  For a while, I’ve been suffering with so many symptoms, but I never connected it to celiac or NSGS.  All have gotten better with gluten-free diet.   Here are my symptoms and maybe someone would know if they are more related to NCGS or Celiac.   Chronic constipation, brain fog, memory issues, brain feels like it’s on fire sometimes, adhd, depression, anxiety, dry mouth, mouth sores, skin lesions/sores that went away with gluten-free diet, dry eyes, joint pain and cracking, chronic fatigue, graphical tongue, breast tenderness, vitamin B12 and D deficiencies, gas that would clear a room, leg and ankle feel like they are heavy or retaining water/painful, acne, brittle nails, night sweats and horrible heart palpitations.

      Emergency Survival Food - ingredients?

      By Awol cast iron stomach · Posted

      Excellent thread topic. In the area I live there is only one food bank to my knowledge that has gluten free packaged foods. So in regular circumstances support agencies have limited gluten-free stock.  For myself I would not be able to utilize likely many of the potential products they would have. I have additional intolerances, Corn is still an issue for me and can be found in many gluten-free packages foods as well. Similar to Scott, I have a pantry with items as well. I keep canned gluten-free proteins  example beans, jerky, fish, gluten-free packaged nuts, seeds,dried fruits, some canned vegetables. Also a gluten-free fruit juice and water as well. Many times there are often gluten-free packaged brands that contain corn, corn starch, or corn derivatives so I am limited which brands I can consume. I still make many baked products myself from gluten-free flours. In the past, when I priced out meal ration kits/ emergency food kits I found they can be quite expensive or limited gluten-free options. So I use the common "pantry" foods or "car trunk" gluten-free protein snacks I grab and go with when away from  home/ gluten-free kitchen  for the day. Best wishes .

      Question about RW Knudsen cider and spice drink

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I see the info below in their FAQ, but nothing that would worry me about their apple cider. I don't see how gluten could end up in a juice processing plant, but if you are concerned you could contact them directly for more info. If wheat were a possible allergen, they would need to disclose this in the ingredients.

      I was worried because the companies FAQ section made it sound like it could go either way if it was cross contaminated or not from their distributors

      gluten-free PASTA

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The pasta should be gluten-free, and is made in a gluten-free facility, but this article may be helpful:
