    My family is celiac ( allergy to wheat) will we have trouble finding things to eat on our Disney vacation??

    Hi Catherine! I'll be happy to assist you with this question. You will be happy to know that there are many dining options available to your family at the Walt Disney World Resort. Please contact Special Diets at SpecialDiets@DisneyWorld.com. They will send you Guest Allergy/Dietary Request Forms to complete. Make your Advanced Dining Reservations (ADR) by calling (407) WDW-DINE and please alert the Cast Member of your family's intolerance to gluten. The Cast Member will notate each ADR. Write down the dates, times, locations, and ADR numbers for each table service restaurant you will be visiting. Complete the Guest Allergy/Dietary Request Forms making sure to include that information and send it back to SpecialDiets@DisneyWorld.com. If you change ADR between now and your arrival date, you will have to repeat the process by forwarding an updated Guest Allergy/Dietary Request Form to the email address shown above. You may also call (407) 939-3463 to request a gluten-free special diet at least three days prior to arrival. Alternatively, you can contact each individual dining venue at least 72 hours in advance. In addition, it might be helpful to alert the wait-staff at the restaurant about your family's gluten intolerance. Many times the chef on duty will talk to you personally about the gluten-free meal options that are available at the restaurant. In order to make informed decisions at counter service locations, be sure to request the "ingredients list book." You may certainly talk to the manager about your family's gluten intolerance and you will be directed to suitable items that are safe for your family to consume. Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance. Have a memorable vacation at the Walt Disney World Resort!
