"It&amp;#039;s a scientific fact that baseball games are vastly improved by eating ballpark hotdogs. It has something to do with neural responses to molecular stimulation at the\u2026 well, OK, I made that up but I&amp;#039;m reasonably sure my premise is correct. As it happens, I&amp;#039;m not the only one who thinks so.  For millions of people w   ith celiac disease, however, ballpark staples such as hot dogs and beer \u2013 which I&amp;#039;m reasonably sure was also part of that scientific study I just invented \u2013 are off limits. Why? They live with celiac disease, a &amp;quot;digestive condition triggered by consumption of the protein gluten, which is found in bread, pasta, cookies, pizza crust and many other foods containing wheat, barley or rye,&amp;quot; according to the Mayo Clinic. Celiac disease sparks an auto-immune reaction, damaging the small intestine and inhibiting the body&amp;#039;s ability to absorb nutrients.  For baseball fans with celiac disease, however, that&amp;#039;s changing. Aramark, which provides food service for everything from universities and hospitals to prisons and, well, baseball stadiums is taking advantage of Celiac Awareness Month to promote their gluten-free menus at ballparks around the country. Those menus include, of course, hot dogs. And beer. And, depending upon where you live, burgers, crabcakes (for Orioles fans), Asian-style noodles, and more. They even operate dedicated gluten-free concession stands in Denver and Atlanta.  Aramark supplies concessions at 14 major league and 10 minor league stadiums around the country and, where gluten-free items may not be on the menu, they can arrange for or learn more about gluten-free offerings by calling the concessions manager. Now, play ball! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
