Gluten Free- EASTER!

So, I was at the store today, and looked at a bag of Starburst Jelly Beans that were on sale. I turned the package around to read the label and after reading all the ingredients- I noticed right underneath it said "Gluten-Free"! AWESOME. And a double awesome- Marshmallow Peeps ALSO has "Gluten-Free" on the back now as well! Those were the only 2 I checked, but I am sure that there are more out there labeling!

I love how companies are now making it easier for us to eat!

My thanks to JustBorn Inc (http://www.marshmallowpeeps.com/) and MasterFoodsUSA (http://www.starburst.com/) for the Gluten-Free Labels! I hope more companies follow your lead!

GF Resturants:

MAMAS in Oakdale (631) 567-0909 (there are 2 Mamas in Oakdale, this is the number to the gluten-free one!), CAFE BALDO in Wantagh, Carrabas in Smithtown (and I believe Lindenhurst? or somewhere else on the Island), Outback, Chilis... PF Changs in Westbury. I have also had luck at Grand Luxe Cafe in the Roosevelt Field Mall (I got an omlet and salad, but the wait staff was extremely helpful). I also heard that Chipotle Grill has gluten-free menu (but have never tired it), there is one just opposite the Nassau Coliseum (by Hofstra), and one by the Broadway Mall on Rt. 107. I also *risk* panara's salad in a pinch. Pizzeria Uno also has a gluten-free menu, I have gone to the one in Lynbrook, and have been OK. Also, Charlie Browns in Lynbrook, Commack, Mineola has a gluten-free menu. I have eaten at Laguna Grill in Westbury and Locust Valley, and was able to get a steak salad (no seasoning), and they were very accommodating.
I have also heard good things (I think even a gluten-free menu) about Long River Chinese in West Islip on Union Blvd, Oystermen’s in Sayville on Foster Ave, and Grecian Café on Broadway in Greenlawn.

GF Shopping:

BWell Naturally in Plainview has a LOT of GF stuff, as well as Fairway (down the block), and Get Healthy America all on Manetto Hill Road. Newly opened is Jani's in Oceanside, and let me say, there was SO much stuff!! I got some things that I never even saw before (they were imported), and FABULOUS GF products. I also like The Diet Shop in Ronkonkoma, they have a lot of GF stuff. Wild By Nature in Huntington, and is newly opening in Oceanside/Lynbrook.

GF Bakeries:

Sweet Karma in East Meadow has some GF items available by order, and even some when you walk in. (Joan's GF Great Bakes has her bagels there! YUM). And The Best Ever Low Carb Cakes in Massapequa, has GF cakes by order.
