The level of awareness of celiac disease is quite wide in Finland compared to many other European countries. There Finnish Celiac Society has over 20.000 members and was born in 2010 and continues to actively spread. Despite this there will always be exceptions. We live in a world "full of gluten" and that is why it is extremely important for celiacs to always be on their guard.
Eat gluten free it is generally considered simple in Finland. Most restaurants indicate in their menus dishes that can be prepared gluten-free. Menus are usually also available in English. Here McDonald's, Hesburger, Roll's and other burger chains offer gluten-free burgers. The Finnish Celiac Society provides travelers with a list of local services (restaurants, bars, bakeries, gluten-free shops) around Finland. Warning: If you don't use wheat or oat starch in your diet, be sure to ask for your dish without wheat or oat starch.
