Went out today for FIL's birthday meal at a carvery.
DS has a wheat intolerance - diagnosed by a long elimination diet and we def know this is what is causing it.
I watched the chef dishing up use the same cutlery for cutting meat (no wheat), dishing up yorkshire puddings (wheat). It appears DS is very sensitive to any form of wheat even wheat starch which doesn't normally cause a problem with people.
What do you say? Do you ask for people to use new cutlery to serve? Avoid these places?
I feel if I say DS has a wheat intolerance it sounds a bit wishy washy especially in recently days/weeks when it has been in the paper about the new 'fad' of food intolerances.
Sorry if this is a bit garbled but just not sure what to do!
