    If you do have sushi, avoid soy sauce - it has gluten. Though you're avoiding rice anyway, so you probably wont.

    Have you looked at the GAPS diet? There are some recipes in the Internal Bliss recipe book that can do as snacks. It's extra work, but things like making your own chips from sweet potato or beetroot could work.

    Can he eat almond meal? There are often GF muffins available at cafes etc. Or can you pack small GF crackers with some cream cheese to take with you?

    Most sushi sushi places have GF soy as well as normal L&B - worth asking!! It has a little green lid instead of red!

    yep he can have almond meal thats a staple in our house, snacks are not a real issue for us its the main meal out that is, its a treat once or twice a week to go shopping and have a sausage roll or similiar. I just wish more places would make an effort to provide gluten free food thats not egg based. Some day soon they will have no choice because more and more people are finding they are intolerant.
    Meercat I know exactly how you feel, I really copped it in the beginning but when family saw how my kids reacted to the food that I said they couldnt tolerate they now understand why i do it. I dont want my kids to suffer.
    Also do you know the name of the reusable squeezie packs I was looking for something like that not long ago.

    I have discovered the few places that serve organic whole foods, so we go there once a week as our treat.

    Quinoa salad, broccoli and bean salad, roast veggies, chickpea curry are all staples for lunch there.

    We also eat a lot of japanese, such as soba noodle and veggie soup (if you can get real soba noodle, not the half wheat ones). We aren't strictly gf just sugar free.
