medications for wheat or starch. Pills are frequently hardened with wheat. You can good Is xxxxx gluten free and generally get an answer. Learn to be assertive in restaurants about asking how things are prepared. Most fried items are cooked in the same fryer and so the fries are not gluten free. My fall back is always a grilled chicken breast on a salad. Wendys is my fav fast food -- chili, salads, potatoes baked, burgers no bun (bring your own). Never go anywhere without a soy bar like Think Thin so if there is no gluten free available, you have an emergency meal. Also Hellmans mayo is gf not Miracle Whip. It is overwhelming at first but it gets easier. I also substitute Tinkyada brand pasta in traditional recipes with success.
