In 1994 I was diagnosed with celiac disease, which led me to create Celiac.com in 1995. I created this site for a single purpose: To help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives. Celiac.com was the first site on the Internet dedicated solely to celiac disease, and since then it has become an invaluable resource to people worldwide who seek information about celiac disease and the gluten-free diet.
In 1998 I created The Gluten-Free Mall, Your Special Diet Superstore! which was also another Internet first—it was the first gluten-free food site to offer a shopping cart-style interface, and the ability for people to order gluten-free products manufactured by many different companies at a single Web site.
I am also co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of Journal of Gluten Sensitivity.
Sirocco Enterprises, Inc. Issues Allergy Alert On Undeclared Soy And Wheat In Pat O'Brien's Bloody Mary Cocktail Mix
- By Scott Adams
- Published 12/23/2011
Bottles of the recalled Pat O’Brien’s Bloody Mary Cocktail Mix were distributed nationally in retail stores and through internet purveyors.
No illnesses have been reported to date in connection with this problem.
The recall was initiated after it was discovered that the Pat O’Brien’s Bloody Mary Cocktail Mix was distributed in packaging that did not reveal the presence of soy and wheat. Subsequent investigation indicates the problem was caused by a change in an ingredient.
Production and distribution of the product has been suspended until FDA and the company are certain that the problem has been corrected.
Consumers who have purchased 33.8 fluid ounce (1 Liter) bottles of Pat O’Brien’s Bloody Mary Cocktail Mix are urged to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund. Consumers with any questions may contact the company at 1-504-834-1549 during the hours of 8:30 AM - 4:30 PM, CST.
