I am traveling to Poland in August. I have celiac (Coeliac) disease. I can not eat anything with gluten (wheat, barley, oats). Any advice when I go? Thanks

If you're self-catering then yes, you should be able to find gluten free products in the larger supermarkets. Here's an example of what you can get from Auchan, a chain with branches in Krakow:

Gluten free in Polish is 'bez glutenu' easy to say! You'll also see a lot of products with 'bez konserwantów' which means without preservatives and 'bez dodatku cukru' without added sugar. Hard to get things without salt which is 'bez soli'.
