Flagstaff Celiac Support Group

Meetings: The third Thursday of each month at 7 p.m. Meetings are usually held at the Flagstaff Medical Center (east campus) cafeteria on the first floor of the main hospital. Go in the entrance next to the cafeteria and look for the group in the seating area to the left.

Meeting Recap: At the August meeting a new member asked for advice on where to eat gluten-free in Flagstaff and where to shop for gluten-free foods. Restaurants mentioned included Buster's (ask for the gluten-free menu), Brandy's for dinner only (specify gluten-free), and Picazzo's (specify gluten-free). The following grocery stores carry a selection of gluten-free items: Fry's, New Frontiers, Basha's on the hill, and Albertsons. They all carry different products, so you have to shop around if you're looking for something specific. Amazon.com carries gluten-free products at lower than store prices and the items are delivered to your door.

Next Meeting: The next meeting will be September 16.
