Disneyland GF
Hey there Disney fans! Let me tell you about my awesome gluten-free adventure at Disneyland Anaheim. I'm a bit of a foodie, so I was thrilled to find out that there are plenty of delicious gluten-free options scattered throughout the park.
First up, let's talk snacks! Those snack carts are a lifesaver. I couldn't resist grabbing a Mickey's ice cream bar – trust me, they're gluten-free, just check the ingredients on the package! And don't overlook the naturally gluten-free popcorn and cotton candy. Perfect for satisfying those munchies while you're waiting in line for your next ride.
Now, if you're like me and you love a good pickle, you've got to try the giant pickles in Adventureland. They're always gluten-free and oh-so-refreshing on a hot day. And speaking of Adventureland, you can't miss the Pineapple Dole Whip at the Enchanted Tiki Room. It's a tropical treat that's totally gluten-free – just what you need to cool off and satisfy your sweet tooth.
When it comes to meals, the Disney app is your best friend. I ordered ahead at Galactic Grill and got myself a "gluten-friendly" salad. It came with a sealed packet of Ken's Italian dressing and some tasty grilled chicken and feta cheese – talk about yum!
For dinner, we headed over to El Rancho del Zocalo Restaurante in Frontierland. It's buffet-style, but don't worry – if you're gluten-free, just chat with the chefs and they'll whip up a separate, celiac-safe meal for you in the back. I went for the tacos – cauliflower, beef, and chicken – along with some rice and beans. It was so good, and they even put an "allergy" stick on my plate to help ensure it was safe.
Last but not least, let's talk sweets. The candy shop on Main Street is a must-visit. They've got an allergy booklet that shows you which treats are gluten-free, so you can indulge without worry. I couldn't resist the Minnie Mouse caramel apple and the marshmallow chocolate wand – both were absolutely delicious and totally safe for us gluten-free folks.
Overall, navigating Disneyland with celiac was a breeze, thanks to all the gluten-friendly options and the helpful staff. Just remember to download the Disneyland app for easy ordering and keep an eye out for those allergen-friendly sections on the menus. Have a great, gluten-free day at the happiest place on earth!
