P.F. Chang’s Gluten-Free Menu

Last Updated on by the Celiac-Disease.com Staff

Looking for some gluten-free Chinese food? Here in the United States, there is a large Chinese food restaurant chain named P.F. Changs which offers quite a few gluten-free foods on its menu and is available in just about every state.

Their gluten-free menu is pretty good, with the real gems on the appetizers menu. P.F. Chang’s famous Chicken Lettuce Wraps are mixed in a delicious sauce and stuffed into cool crisp lettuce. Add a cup of the egg drop soup, and you’ve got a meal in itself right there.

If you are instead in the mood for a feast, there are plenty of delicious entrees that are sure to delight anyone’s palate. Some of the most popular ones are the Singapore Street Rice Noodles with shrimp and chicken, the Ginger Chicken with Broccoli, and for a vegetarian option, the Buddha’s Feast, which is a mixture of steamed vegetables.

What’s a great meal without a tasty dessert? If you are a chocolate enthusiast, the Flourless Chocolate Dome is simply too delicious to pass up.  Served with fresh berries and raspberry sauce, the Flourless Chocolate Dome is the perfect finish to a perfect meal.

Overall, P.F. Changs is a great place for anyone with Celiac Disease. As always, when dining out gluten-free, do your due diligence and make sure the staff understands your needs. There are very few restaurants that are 100% gluten-free, so cross-contamination is always a risk. If you don’t feel comfortable with what you are hearing from the staff, perhaps it is best to dine elsewhere.

Taco Bell’s Gluten-Free Menu

Last Updated on by the Celiac-Disease.com Staff

Do you have a Taco Bell in your area that you’d like to eat at?   It seems like most places around the United States have a Taco Bell, so I decided to do some research and see what Taco Bell has that is truly gluten-free.

Unfortunately, my research produced limited results, but I did find this Taco Bell allergens chart which includes gluten as one of the many allergens on the list.  It certainly isn’t an ideal or definitive list, but it was updated recently and hopefully will help some people who are determined to dine at a Taco Bell.

In the meantime, I will keep an eye on the official Taco Bell website for a gluten-free menu.  Once one is posted, I will be sure to get this post updated with their official gluten-free information!

Dairy Queen has also added the following disclaimer:

Please know, many of our Blizzard® candies and toppings contain wheat, rye, oats, and/or barley and would not be safe for a customer with gluten intolerance.  As the Blizzard® machine is used for all flavors, cross-contamination may occur on any flavor Blizzard®.  So for your safety, we recommend notifying the Dairy Queen® staff of your allergy or intolerance and requesting they thoroughly clean the Blizzard® machine before blending your Blizzard® to reduce the risk of cross-contamination.

When in doubt whether a product may contain a particular allergen, we recommend you purchase a pre-packaged manufactured novelty treat, which contains an ingredient listing and nutrition facts panel on the package.

Dairy Queen® restaurants are very busy and cross contamination may occur between ingredients. Thus a 100% confidence level cannot be guaranteed. It is important that you ask your local Dairy Queen® restaurant for an ingredient listing of the specific item in question and let them know of your special needs.
