<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I wrote IHOP to take issue with the addition of pancake batter to make there omeletes more fluffy. I also informed them that people with Celiac disease represent 1 in 150 Americans who will suffer intestinal damage which can lead to Lymphoma when ingesting wheat, rye or barley. Pancake batter is not an obvious addition that most people would connect with omeletes. For this reason, I would requested that this information be clearly stated on their menus. Here was their response: Dear Ms. Frank: Thank you for taking the time to contact IHOP. Yes our omelettes do contain gluten due to the addition of a small amount of pancake batter which enhances the taste and appearance of the omelettes. Because of the efforts of the Celiac community we have become aware of the challenge this presents to those with gluten intolerance. We are currently formulating a plan on how best to inform our guest of this and other challenges our menu may present to those with special dietary needs. We are grateful that you have brought this concern to our attention. Sincerely, Patrick Lenow Director, Public Relations *Support summarization of posts, reply to the SENDER not the Celiac List *
