Hello,

Chalk this up to the side of the argument supporting "not' eating out !!!

I haven't taken the time to check the archives.  Needless to say, hindsight
is 20/20.  Perhaps this is already out there.  I am letting you know that I
just found out last evening that our Ruby Tuesday's (likely the entire
chain I would guess) receives all their steaks pre-packaged in juices to
keep them moist.  I saw the label:  in the juices, you guessed it, are lots
of things we can't have, not the least of which is wheat gluten.  This
follows about a year and a half of carefully instructing serving staff
there, watching them write down my words, having had them tell me they told
the cook, and being verbally assured that I was getting "plain" steak,
cooked on a clean grill.  This time, however, someone spilled the remaining
juice on my steak and therefore I could easily taste the additives.  I
could've cried.  Moving onward, crossing off their chicken as well because
I'm figuring that probably comes pre-packaged as well.

I won't be eating at "any" chains in the future without asking lots more
questions.

God bless.

Mary B.
