Dairy/wheat free food advice

[katie]

Have any of our US (or UK) friends seen jars of Almond Butter in the shops, particularly in Publix or Walmart? DH is on Dairy/wheat/fruitmeat -free diet for migraine cotrol and this is all he can have. Peanut butter is no good unfortunately. Also does anyone know whether Brown Rice Cakes are available? Otherwise we can last 3 weeks on fresh veg, salad, baked potatoes & hummus & unleavened/soda bread (if we can find that too).

Hi Katie, a work colleague of mine visited WDW last year with her son who is on a wheat/dairy free diet for autism. She founsd the selction of foods in the supermarkets really good and they didn't struggle at all. She was tempted to try to smuggle some supplies in with her but decided against this and wasn't sorry! She did contact some of the supermarkets in the Orlando area (via their websites I think?) and managed to get a rough idea of the range of foods available. I'm not sure about the Almond Butter but maybe they could give you a product list?

Thanks for that susie c. I'm just looking at websites now but the bigger stores seem to advertise their on-food items. I'm sure we will find what we're looking for eventually. Even in the UK, I have to go to health shops for almond butter as the big supermarkets don't seem to stock it.

My Mum has a dairy allergy and she uses goats butter, 'Vitalite' and 'Pure' spreads I think - maybe something similar to that would be available if it's any good for your DH? :shrug:
