Unless she was celiac more than 4 years ago, I'm disinclined to believe the claims, unless it's backedup by labwork or evidence.
- brightball 9y agoShe is. It's been 13 years.
- jimmywanger 9y agoI'm sorry, that really sucks. Then it must be as frustrating for you as it is for me that a lot of restaurants now have to cater to non-existent gluten allergies. For instance, most restaurants know that nut alleries are real, and life threatening, so they go to great lengths to make sure there's no nuts in things they say are nut free. For gluten allergies, 99% of the people won't notice if they accidentally consume a crouton, so "gluten free" becomes "gluten free, but we aren't really that stringent about it cause nobody really cares."
- brightball 9y agoYep. We are. We tend to find places that really know what they are doing and stick to them. If my wife asks a question and whoever she is talking to sounds even a little bit uncertain, she won't eat there. Going somewhere new always involves scouting and a "fingers crossed" experience while she's eating. Checking on things like separate fryers gets old, so when a restaurant knows what they are talking about they get A LOT of repeat business from us. Fast food tends to be tougher when travelling but Chick-fil-a actually does a great job. Fries in a separate fryer, grilled nuggets and their salads are all safe. We actually bought a used RV the past year for family trips because it makes it so much easier to just preload a travelling kitchen.
