Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

I saw the page here that gave the tips for eating out but I couldn't find any posts that talked about specific meals in chain restaurants. It might well be here...I may have just not entered the right words in the search engine.

Anyway I discovered a few things I can tolerate very well. I also realize that this can differ from person to person but I'd also like to hear what you all have discovered out there. I alternate between D and C btw.

Cracker Barrel-Grilled Chicken Dinner with Green Beans/Steak Fries and Corn Muffins/no butter. The Green Beans looked a little oily-not sure what that was but they didn't bother me. There are other safe veggies to choose from.

TGI Fridays-Dragon Fire Chicken. Its served with Rice. I didn't eat the veggie/sauce thing. Just scrapped that to the side.

Red Lobster-Fresh Salmon with rice and Veggies. I ate the Cheese Biscuits first with no problem but I'd advice others to be careful.

I was surprised to find out I could eat the old fashioned buttermilk pancakes at I-Hop. I had them served with Promise spread instead of butter AND I had a Luna Bar first.

Anyone else find any 'safe' meals out there in Chain restaurant land? We of course know that some of them might do with a little moderation to make them 'safe'. I'm curious.
