Here's what readers are saying about The Ultimate Guide to Eating Out Gluten Free:

“I would definitely recommend The Ultimate Guide to Eating Out Gluten Free to anyone who is gluten-free. I've been gluten sensitive for three years and I learned a lot of things from this book that I did not know before. I believe there is no such thing as educating ourselves too much about what gluten is doing to our bodies, how to stay away from it and how to advocate for ourselves in society. Before reading this book, eating at a restaurant felt like such a chore. I always felt like I needed to apologize to the waiter, my friends, and my family for making things so inconvenient because of my gluten sensitivity. Jenny has not only educated me on ways to choose a gluten-free restaurant but also how to know what things to watch out for to make sure my food is truly gluten-free. Most importantly, The Ultimate Guide to Eating Out Gluten Free armed me with the tools I need to know what to say at restaurants to ensure my gluten sensitivity is taken seriously.”
