<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I know this is a "day late & dollar short". Forgive me. Here is the summary of all the responses I got regarding a day at Disneyland. ------------------------ I had the best time at Disneyland. The popcorn is GF I also had ice cream @ carnation and a chocolate banana but the highlight was the dinner we had (go early!!!) at the Disneyland Hotel. The chef made a special meal for me. I did not plan anything ahead and had my emergency supply across the street at our hotel so I wasn't really worried. I had salmon and fresh veggies and my plate was just as impressive as the rest of the group. I love both Disneyland and Disney World they really cater to making the customer happy, even us celiacs. Have a great time! Jeanne ---------------------------- It was so hard for me to eat there. I took mostly my own food. I didn't want to be on the toilet the whole time,just take foods like u were going camping,like canned meats,hard boil eggs,fruit,bottle water,jerky,rice cakes etc and protein bars... Jody ----------------------------- Many years ago, I worked at Disneyland in the foodservice division. I doubt very much that you will be able to find gluten free items anywhere in the park. The restaurant that I worked in was the Blue Bayou (the Pirates of the Carribean ride goes through it); menu items that you might think would be safe definately were not. Some examples: the green beans and peas were cooked in chicken broth; the "baked potatoes" were actually potato shells that had been baked, scooped out, and refilled with instant potatoes mixed with cheese whiz; pantry items (tomatoes, fresh fruits, avocados) were prepared on cutting boards and with knives that were also used to slice bread for making sandwiches and croutons. Hopefully you will be able to find some items that are safe, but my recommendation would be to take meals with you. There were public lockers available on main street just inside the main gate when I worked there where you could store food items during your stay. At least you wouldn't have to worry about packing it around with you. Forbes --------------------------- I just wanted to send a quick comment that I went to Disneyland for the first time since I was diagnosed with celiac in Sept 99. I made sure I had breakfast before leaving for Disneyland. I then brought gluten free snacks for the day. For meals in the park I stuck to salads. There is a restaurant that basically just serves pizza and salad that is in Tomorrow Land by Space Mountain I think. Anyway the man there made sure that he made a salad to my specifications. Mixed greens, no croutons, he offered packaged parmesan cheese with the ingredients on the package. And olive oil and balsamic vinegar. I know this might not be of much help but I just thought I would let you know in case you don't get any other information before going there. When we left the park we went for Dinner. It was a little late but at least I knew the places that I were going to weren't going to get me sick. Teri P.S. The gentleman who made my salad was wearing plastic gloves and he even put on fresh ones to handle my food incase he had handles gluten contaminated food prior. Of course this was by my request but he was more than happy to do that. --------------------------- Contact info may be found on the Disney web site at disney.com.
