Well, the PF Changs is VERY impressive. I took some pictures I'm going to post in the morning.

Sure enough, it came on a round plate (which I took a picture of LOL). I'm going to post the pictures on my facebook page so y'all can see how much fun we had!

I GOT SOME NEW PILLOWS! Yay for me! Calvin Klein, even! LOL, I've been wanting some good, nice pillows but won't spend money on them.

I got the chocolate dessert and it was YUMMY! I thought it was going to be like cake, but it was like fudge YUM!

Our waitress was totally on spot with the gluten-free thing. I told her "I post at celiac.com and they recommended this restaurant." She said, "oh, what a compliment!!!" She made sure she brought me my own gluten-free soy sauce. I had chicken....can't remember what it was called - but man, it was delicious and she asked me if I wanted brown rice, she did such a great job, they even had Red Bridge beer so I had one of those AND a Petrone (sp?) margerita that my sister bought me. I'm STUFFED.

I just thought of this, but she actually brought me out the bottle of the Red Bridge and showed it to me before she poured it in the glass.

It was a lovely day and lovely supper and everyone enjoyed their food. As we were leaving, my momma asked me to find out our waitresses name, so I went and asked her, she got a scared look on her face. I said, "no, when my mom asks that, it means she's going to send a note of appreciation to your management."

So, I'm stuffed and sleepy and have NEW PILLOWS to sleep on! And I didn't hurt myself or break anything! :D

here's a couple of pictures

      Ok so know one knows about cross reactions from yeast,corn, potatoes, eggs, quinoa ,chocolate, milk, soy, and a few more I forgot.  There all gluten free but share a similar structure to gluten proteins. I use to be able to eat potatoes but now all of a sudden I was stumped and couldn't figure it out when I got shortness of breath like I was suffocating.  Then figured it out it was the potatoes.  They don't really taste good anyways. Get the white yams and cherry red 🍠 yams as a sub they taste way better. It's a cross reaction! Google foods that cross react with celiacs.  Not all of them you will cross react too. My reactions now unfortunately manifest in my chest and closes everything up . Life sucks then we die. Stay hopeful and look and see different companies that work for you . Lentils from kroger work for me raw in the bag and says nothing about gluten free but it works for me just rinse wellllll.....don't get discouraged and stay hopeful and don't pee off god

      Hi Lily Ivy. Thanks for responding. Did you have withdrawal? If so, what was it like and for how long?

      Welcome to the forum, @Doris Barnes! You do realize don't you that the "gluten free" label does not mean the same thing as "free of gluten"? According to FDA regulations, using the "gluten free" label simply means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 20 ppm. "Certified Gluten Free" is labeling deployed by an independent testing group known as GFCO which means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 10 ppm. Either concentration of gluten can still cause a reaction in folks who fall into the more sensitive spectrum of the celiac community. 20 ppm is safe for most celiacs. Without knowing how sensitive you are to small amounts of gluten, I cannot speak to whether or not the Hu Kitechen chocolates are safe for you. But it sounds like they have taken sufficient precautions at their factory to ensure that this product will be safe for the large majority of celiacs.

      Buying choclate, I recently boght a bar from Hu Kitchen (on your list of recommended candy. It says it is free of gluten. However on the same package in small print it says "please be aware that the product is produced using equipment that also processes nuts, soy, milk and wheat. Allergen cleans are made prior to production". So my question is can I trust that there is no cross contamination.  If the allergy clean is not done carefully it could cause gluten exposure. Does anyone know of a choclate brand that is made at a facility that does not also use wheat, a gluten free facility. Thank you.

      @Manaan2, have you considered the possibility that she might be cross reacting to some food or foods that technically don't contain gluten but whose proteins closely resemble gluten. Chief candidates might be dairy (casein), oats (avenin), soy, corn and eggs. One small study showed that 50% of celiacs react to CMP (Cow's Milk Protein) like they do gluten.
