Celiac Friendly Countries: Australia

After the popularity of my first Celiac Friendly Country, India, I decided to make this a regular series. I will be researching a wide variety of countries, in attempt to help my fellow Celiac brothers and sisters choose a Celiac friendly vacation spot.

My Celiac friendly Country for today focuses on Australia. Australia is one of the most Celiac friendly Countries in the world. Australia is extremely Celiac aware, and this is quite apparent as you look at their gluten free legislation. There are several restaurants and grocery stores where you can find a wide variety of gluten free options

In Sydney, Australia, there are several supermarkets and restaurants that offer gluten free options:

• Porterhouse Irish Pub: This restaurant has a couple of gluten free options, marked gluten free. Entrees that are gluten free, include : Scallops marinated in basil pesto.

• Thomas Dux: This grocery story contains a wide variety of gluten free foods. The section is marked by a large red sign that says "Gluten Free." There are many Thomas Dux locations throughout Australia. 

If you are Celiac, and planning to travel, consider Australia. With the above businesses, and many others, you will have an enjoyable, and symptom-free experience.
