Gluten Dude: GF Restaurants app analytics for August 13

EATING OUT SHOULDN'T BE THIS HARD. If you have celiac disease or a gluten intolerance, you've probably done this before. You find a restaurant that looks promising. Then the work begins. You read reviews. You search Facebook groups. You look at crowdsourced apps. You study the menu. You call the restaurant. You hope the person on the phone actually understands what you're asking. Maybe you feel better. Maybe you don't. Either way, you're still left making one of the most important decisions of your day with incomplete information. That's the part I wanted to fix. EVERY RESTAURANT EARNS ITS PLACE. All restaurants start with someone in the gluten-free community who had a safe experience and told us about it. Then our team gets to work. First, we research the restaurant — looking into their gluten-free practices and reputation before we ever reach out. Then we vet it directly. We contact the restaurant and ask the questions that matter. How do they prevent cross-contact? Is there a dedicated fryer? Does the staff understand celiac disease? Then we write everything up in plain English, so you know what to expect before you ever walk through the door. Community starting points. Independent research. Complete transparency. WHY I BUILT GLUTEN DUDE. I've had celiac disease since 2007. Like you, I've spent way too much time trying to figure out where it was actually safe to eat. I've been glutened by restaurants that sounded confident. I've asked all the awkward questions. After years of doing the same research over and over, I had one thought: Why isn't someone doing this for us? So I built the app I wished I'd had. KNOW WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT.
