			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From an email from Arby&#8217;s:</p>
<blockquote><p> Proteins, without  bread or buns:  roast beef, ham, turkey, corned beef and Grilled  Chicken Fillet.  [Breaded chicken fillet and tenders and the  Diced-Grilled are NOT GF.]<br />
Cheeses, natural and processed.<br />
Peppered  bacon.<br />
Baked potatoes only [Plain, or with butter and gluten-free seasonings.  About 10% of our restaurants offer baked potatoes.]<br />
Fresh Fruit  Cup.<br />
Milkshakes.</p>
<p>I cannot recommend any of the other  potato products, though, because, in their cooking at the restaurant, there is  the chance they will share fryer-space with wheat flour-based coated items.  And then you should be made aware of this:  the Curly Fries are  coated, and there is gluten added as a part of that formulation and preparation  by our supplier.  Their preparation in the same oil as that used for  Homestyle Fries and Potato Cakes takes out all three as  option.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;If you are aware of our  re-designed website, www.arbys.com 20<br />
(<a href="http://www.arbys.com/" target="_blank">http://www.arbys.com/</a>)  , then you know it shows  something about food allergens or sensitivity agents.  You need now only be  able to check components of the menu items, and this tactic should work:   select nutrition from the cover page; select the category of interest lets  use the Arbys Chicken Naturals as an example then select to view the allergen  listings and go.  Next, beside any specific menu item in a category for  example, Chicken Fillet Sandwich Grilled hit the triangle that appears to the  left of the name, and see that a component listing displays with an option to  look at ingredient statements just wand over that option, and the ingredients  appear.  Unfortunately, one cannot print from this display.  Or, you  can look at the dots indicating the presence of major allergens in each  component.   This nutrition section will show you the ingredient  lists for almost all the components of our menu items.  On this last  point, perhaps you should consult the website to be certain of menu items, such  as condiments, being GF.</p></blockquote>
<p>Not the best of news for Celiac sufferers.  A very limited list of Gluten Free items and a longer list of items that could be if they took certain precautions in their preparation.  Unfortunately, they don&#8217;t.  It looks like that eliminates Arby&#8217;s from most lists of places to eat out.</p>

<p>With many of the products here, it is always best to ask the personnel on hand to double check.  We all know what it feels like to eat Gluten by mistake!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The following is a response from Dairy Queen International on Gluten Free foods at DQ restaurants.</p>
<blockquote>
<pre>We know dealing with gluten intolerance can be very
difficult and Dairy
Queen would like to help you enjoy your favorite
Dairy Queen treats while
still following a safe diet.  Unfortunately, we do
not have a complete
list of gluten-free products at this time, but
hopefully the following
information will be of assistance to you. I have
also included the link to
our nutrition calculator below, which I might add,
is totally awesome. It
let's you choose anything and everything and it
gives you all of the
ingredients in it!

<a href="http://www.dairyqueen.com/NCPublic/DQComNutritionCalculator.htm" target="_blank">http://www.dairyqueen.com/NCPublic/DQComNutritionCalculator.htm</a>

We are proud to inform you that both our DQ vanilla
and chocolate soft
serve are gluten-free, in addition to our Arctic
Rush™ slush.
Additionally the following toppings are gluten-free:

·         Chocolate

·         Hot Fudge

·         Marshmallow

·         Butterscotch

·         Strawberry

You may also want to try our one of our MooLattes®
without whipped topping.

Additionally, our supplier of manufactured novelties
informs us that the
following items are also gluten-free:

·         DQ® Fudge Bar

·         DQ® Vanilla Orange Bar

·         Dilly® Bar (look for this in a sealed
plastic wrap to ensure it
is a manufactured Dilly Bar)

If you would like to try one of our famous Blizzard
treats, the following
is a list of gluten-free Blizzards.

·         Reese’s® Peanut Butter Cup Blizzard

·         Butterfinger® Blizzard

·         Snickers® Blizzard

·         Heath® Blizzard

·         M&amp;M® Blizzard

·         Banana Split Blizzard

·         Hawaiian Blizzard

·         Tropical Blizzard

·         Strawberry Blizzard

·         Mint M&amp;M® Blizzard

Please know many of our Blizzard candies and
toppings contain wheat, rye,
oats, and/or barley and would not be safe for a
customer with gluten
intolerance.  As the Blizzard machine is used for
all flavors,
cross-contamination may occur on any flavor
Blizzard.  So for your safety,
we recommend notifying the Dairy Queen staff of your
allergy or
intolerance and requesting they thoroughly clean the
Blizzard machine
before blending your Blizzard to reduce the risk of
cross-contamination.

From our Brazier food line, I would recommend trying
our Homestyle® and
GrillBurgers™, or our hot dogs, all prepared with
out a bun.

Certain Dairy Queen restaurants use a soft serve mix
that varies from the
mix used by restaurants in the rest of the country
and on which this
information is based.  Please know some Dairy Queen
restaurants also sell
food that is not the licensed Brazier line of food
products.  This
information on food products applies only to the
Brazier products served
by authorized Brazier restaurants.  Please check all
of this information
regarding food and treats with your local
restaurant.

Please note that as Dairy Queen stores are very busy
and there is always a
chance of cross contamination of gluten in any DQ
product.  To reduce the
risk, please mention the nature of your allergy to
the DQ crew member
before placing your order.</pre>

<p>The nutritional Calculator is of particularly good use as you can pick from any item on their menu and it will give you not only the nutritional content like your used to on most packaging, but also the ingredients of each of the components of the item.  Very handy!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s also handy to remember that in many cases you can ask them to remove certain ingredients and still get the ice cream you love, just modified for a Celiac&#8217;s Gluten Free diet.</p>
