what does celiac friendly mean?

Why I Created This App (And Why It Matters)

My name is Scott and I have been a passionate celiac advocate since 2011, after my dreaded diagnosis in 2007. If you've ever read my blog, you know that my focus always has been and always will be to do what is in the best interests of the celiac community.

To that end, I'd like to share something very important with you: Regardless of what other apps may tell you, there is no such thing as a "celiac-friendly" or "gluten-free friendly" restaurant. It's just marketing BS that is designed to boost sales by giving celiacs a false sense of security.

Here's the truth: The only guaranteed safe meal for people with celiac disease is at a 100% gluten-free restaurant. Period. Every other restaurant carries some cross-contamination risks. The key is finding restaurants that understand these risks and actively work to minimize them.

And that's why I created this app...to help you find those restaurants. We take the time to thoroughly vet every single restaurant we list. No shortcuts. No compromises. Just honest assessments of cross-contamination protocols.

Because unlike other apps that prioritize the quantity of listings, we prioritize your health. We understand what's at stake - your wellbeing, your peace of mind, and your ability to enjoy life.

While we can't make dining completely risk-free, we can help you make more informed choices.

Questions? You can email me at scott@glutendude.app or text me at (929) 431-0035. I aim to please. 🙂
