great info...a few things to add...before going to a restaurant check them out online and call to find out what precautions they take to make sure food is truly safe from cross contact and safe for someone w/ CD. Consider using an app to find restaurants or joining local GF/Celiac on-line groups for intel on restaurants.

I agree! Restaurant research is key and apps are so helpful especially when traveling. As for local groups- I can’t tell you how incredibly wonderful it has been to find a local network of support and information

Such great advice for families from Maria! I really didn't learn how to cook until my adult years, but I can attest to the fact that it's been a very helpful skill to have to save money and also recreate my favorite gluten-filled foods.
