I went to the Dominican Republic last March. Was so concerned about ingesting foods with "alcohol." I asked the chef every night to show me what foods had alcohol. He was happy to oblige after I told him I could die if I had any. (that's how much my recovery means to me) Anyway, I'm leaving on a cruise this Sunday. I don't think I can ask the chef's to provide me with the same information. After reading all the articles on false positives, I am concerned I will consume something and test positive. Does anyone have that long list of foods/other items that can produce the false positive? I've seen it before but I can't find it now. Thank you so much. I love coming to this website every day and knowing I'm not alone. Hugs~Sohpie.

Sophie, I don't know if there is any way you are going to be able to control that on a cruise. The only way that I can think of is to eat only at the buffet and to eat only plain meat. I am booked for a cruise a year an a half from now, and my thoughts are that I will do what I can to avoid alcohol, but I'm not going to ruin my vacation over it. I and my DH will know that I did not drink and that is what is most important.

Also keep in mind that hand sanatizer is EVERYWHERE on a cruise ship due to Norovirus outbreaks. I'd be more concerned about avoiding that stuff!

Don't know if this is what you are looking for but here's a link,

Like lisa said it's pretty hard tp avoid certain thing in the environment of a cruise - watch the hand sanitizer and you could put in a dietary requeststating severe allergies for any thing you get in the dining room

Peace and Namaste

To avoid etg hits,,,, foods do not eat ANY processed foods, sauces, spices, health foods/extracts, ice cream (vanilla extracts), bakery goods, etc, etc.,...fresh meats and vegetables are the ONLY safe foods..HUBERT
