Guest guest Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 I was at the mall all day today and got super hungry, and since my family didn't want to go home, we headed to the food court to see if I had any options. We found chick fil a's grilled chicken, which the cashier said was marinated only in garlic, salt and pepper. I ordered two of those plain and ate them. No reaction so far, but my question is, has anyone else ever tried this and had a reaction? Even though it sounded legal, I'm not sure I believe them, and if someone else tried it and had a reaction I want to be sure not to eat it again. Thanks!

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 You did the best you could under the situation, and it certainly was the best choice on their menu. Sometimes you just have to do the best you can! I have not eaten their chicken but I looked on the website. The grilled fillet is not breaded and is gluten free. After that I have no idea. The best thing to do is to write them- and ask specifically what the chicken is to start with and if there are additives in the processing even before it is cooked. I know this is time consuming. My daughter with food allergies has scoped out all the restaurants and knows which ones are safe and which ones are not. My son's room mate at school had severe food allergies and we had to check out all the food places near the school to find safe ones- and so they could get safe take-out to their dorm room. It's worth the effort though- so you can eat out if you want to.

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 I haven’t tried Chic fil A, per se, but I periodically eat grilled chicken, bunless hamburgers, salad with strips of streak when I’m out and I’ve never reacted to any of it. It’s possible I’m not as sensitive to traces of possible illegals at this point as some are here. In fact, I’m sure that’s the case; and I made very quick progress after starting the diet (with the help of LDN). So though I’m careful, I don’t worry about that kind of thing like some here have to. If you didn’t react, I wouldn’t worry about it. n From: BTVC-SCD [mailto:BTVC-SCD ] On Behalf Of Alyssa Luck Sent: Tuesday, July 14, 2009 5:50 PM To: BTVC-SCD Subject: Chick fil A chicken I was at the mall all day today and got super hungry, and since my family didn't want to go home, we headed to the food court to see if I had any options.

So, Alyssa, don't assume thatif you don't react now, you won't necessarily react once you are offthe prednisone. Mara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
