I have heard the same thing! They are super conscious of cross contamination issues, too. :) Have a BLAST!

I have only been gluten free since October of 2011, we went to Disney in February 2012. My first gluten free meal was at the Liberty Tree Tavern for dinner, when I made reservations ahead of time I asked them to notate gluten free, but failed to realize that dinner at this resturant was family style. NO fear, we were seated the cook came out introduced hisself and told me that the meat was served with stuffing on the same plate and he would make sure it was all seperated for me, he made me gluten free gravy and offered to make gluten free rolls, so while everyone enjoyed the items filled with gluten I had the same without, it was WONDERFUL!!! This is how the rest of our trip went, with the exception of downtown disney, there the cook did come out and talk to me, reassured me he would be the person to get my order when the waiter wrote gluten free on it and explained everything I could and could not have. So they didn't necessarily make anything special for me, but had many options. I spent 3 days there and never got any gluten (I have immediate DH when I get the smallest amount, so I would know quickly) Hope you have just as good an experience as I did!

Disney did a great job for me at their new resort in Hawaii. Make reservation ahead of time and you'll be well taken care of.

Have fun!

Disney is simply amazing for gluten-free. They have lists they will email you, plus if you speak to the manager when you arrive at any of the restaurants in the park they will bend over backwards to make sure you get safe food! I was served burgers on Udi's buns, fries out of dedicated fryers, gluten-free BBQ ribs, and the big smoked turkey drumsticks you see everywhere are safe and delish.

Make sure you go to Raglan Road Irish pub in Downtown Disney (make reservations for a table or you'll have an obnoxious wait) and get some gluten-free fish and chips or onion rings from their dedicated gluten-free fryer! :)

And my friend Chef Mike who has been a chef at Disney for 14 1/2 years says & I quote:

"Years ago Disney NEVER gave out their recipes Now you can buy Disney cook books!! The location I have been at for 11 yrs even prints recipes to hand out to the guest if and when they ask. If we don't have it handy there is a actual chef that we forward requests to that emails them to you. "

So when you eat that mouthwatering gluten-free Disney food you can ask for a printout of the recipe!!!!! How cool is that?

And Skylark ---- I just got the Raglan Road gluten-free fry batter recipe. I will post it this evening when I get a chance. YUM!

tongue.gifI'll start a new thread for it.

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      By K6315 · Posted

      Thank you so much Trents (Scott?)! I have started working with a dietitian and did a deep research dive as soon as I got the diagnosis. I am aware of what you mentioned in the first two paragraphs, and was not aware of anything in the third, so I am grateful for that information, and will talk to the dietitian about that. I think I was most interested in the withdrawal process - it gives me hope that, although I have felt unwell recently, I just need to be patient (not a strong suit). I have printed the article you sent and will look at it more closely. Thanks again!

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @K6315! Gluten withdrawal typically lasts for a period of a few weeks. But there is a real learning curve involved in actually attaining to a gluten free dietary state. Much more is involved than just cutting out major sources of gluten such as bread and pasta. It's all the places that gluten is hidden in the food supply that is difficult to ferret out, like soy sauce and canned tomato soup, canned chili and canned pork n' beans, some "lite" pancake syrups, potato salad, flavorings, etc., etc. Gluten-containing grain products are hidden through alternate terminology and found in places you would never expect.  There is also "cross contamination" where naturally gluten free foods come into contact with gluten-containing grains during farming, transportation, storage and manufacturing processes. Then there is the issue of "cross reactivity" whereby you may be having gluten-like reaction to food proteins whose structure is similar to gluten. Chief among these are dairy, oats (even gluten-free oats), soy, corn and eggs. I am including this article that you might find helpful:

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      By K6315 · Posted

      Prior to being diagnosed, I had a gluten heavy diet. I stopped all gluten exactly a week ago and have continued to feel sick in the ways I did prior to going gluten free - primarily on and off nausea, brain fog, and fatigue. Wondering if this is normal and, if so, how long can I expect to feel this way?
