Gluten Free Travel

Summer vacations can become less relaxing when you have to worry about gluten sensitivities.  Vacations almost always equal eating out!  As we all know, eating out is not easy when you have to stay gluten free.  It is hard enough to find a place to go eat when you are familiar with the restaurants in your area. But, what do you do when you are NOT familiar with the area.   What do you do when you are surrounded with food courts and stands? In the summer, evan a simple day trip to the ball park, an amusement park, or fair can become stressful.

Here are some places that provide gluten free food items:
Disney
Kalahari Resort in Wisconsin Dells
Sea World

A routine you need to get in is to call ahead.  Try to call ahead anywhere you are able to and tell them about your allergy.  Ask them what they have available.  Ask questions to help you prevent eating foods that may have been cross contaminated.  Also, if you are able, get use to packing a cooler with your favorite gluten free foods.  If all else fails you can take a break from your activities and have a fast picnic.

I would love to hear some great safe - gluten free summer trips that you have taken!
Happy Summer and don't forget to pack your gluten free sun screen, hair care, and mouth care items (visit www.all-gluten-free.com to find some great gluten free items to take on your next trip).
