Adventures In gluten-free Cooking....

My local grocery just got the Schar stuff in including the pizza crusts. A bit dear, I thought, but I really wanted pizza so I went for it and bought the box with the 2 crusts in it for $9.99. I also found some gluten-free pepperoni and I had some mozzarella so I whipped up a little pizza sauce using some fire roasted garlic seasoned crushed tomatoes and some Italian herbs, threw on the cheese and the pepperoni and popped it in the oven. (Right on the rack. I always cook my pizza that way. I like crunchy crust.)

It came out very nice indeed. First Schar Pizza, Verdict YUM! Bonus, I was so stuffed at 1/2 a little pizza I couldn't finish it, so I actually am going to get 4 meals out of those two crusts which makes it not such a bad deal after all!

I got the rolls, 2 different breads, bread sticks, and the pizza crusts to try. I figure that will get me through the next 2-3 weeks and I also ordered a sample case of Chebe to try. In all honestly I was getting a bit tired of having to mix and bake only to have things taste awful anyhow so I thought I'd try some pre-made things they had.

It is more expensive, and I don't think I'll be eating the Schar on a regular basis if the Chebe works and I like it. But it's nice to know I can stick a few things in the freezer just in case I don't feel like messing with a box mix and the time involved.

I hope the rest of this stuff is as good as the pizza crust is. If so, I won't feel too guilty about the major $$$ I just spent on this batch of gluten-free items.

      Yes and variations in their sources for natural and artificial flavors could be the culprit as well.  I might be on the more sensitive side, but I do fine with McDonald's fries and burgers if I take the bun off, and other foods that have certified gluten free ingredients and only cross contamination risk preventing the gluten-free certification.

      Yes, the yeast could have been cultured on a wheat substrate. But another batch may use a yeast extract cultured on something else that did not contain gluten. These food companies will switch suppliers according to what is the cheapest source at any given time. I take it you are a pretty sensitive celiac.

      The regular cheddar and sour cream Ruffles have yeast extract, which is probably the source of gluten.  Pinpointing the exact cause of gluten exposure is always tricky, but I've come to learn my initial reaction to gluten compared to the ongoing symptoms that will occur days, weeks, and sometimes months later.

      Yes, that's probably best. (Honestly, that is an extraordinarily high number, I've never seen anything like that. I repeated my blood tests (not taken while pregnant BTW); before giving up cake, pizza, and beer, I wanted to know for sure! You don't wanna mess around with anything while pregnant. Congratulations and best of luck!

      Here are the ingredients listed for the regular sour cream and cheddar Ruffles: Potatoes, Vegetable Oil (Canola, Corn, Soybean, and/or Sunflower Oil), Maltodextrin (Made from Corn), Salt, Whey, Cheddar Cheese (Milk, Cheese Cultures, Salt, Enzymes), Onion Powder, Monosodium Glutamate, Natural and Artificial Flavors, Buttermilk, Sour Cream (Cultured Cream, Skim Milk), Lactose, Butter (Cream, Salt), Sodium Caseinate, Yeast Extract, Citric Acid, Skim Milk, Blue Cheese (Milk, Cheese Cultures, Salt, Enzymes), Lactic Acid, Garlic Powder, Artificial Color (Yellow 6, Yellow 5), Whey Protein Isolate, and Milk Protein Concentrate. CONTAINS MILK INGREDIENTS. Here are the ingredients listed for the baked ones: INGREDIENTS: DRIED POTATOES, CORN STARCH, CORN OIL, SUGAR, MALTODEXTRIN (MADE FROM CORN), SALT, SOY LECITHIN, DEXTROSE, WHEY, WHEY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE, ONION POWDER, CHEDDAR CHEESE (MILK, CHEESE CULTURES, SALT, ENZYMES), MONOSODIUM GLUTAMATE, BLUE CHEESE (MILK, CHEESE CULTURES, SALT, ENZYMES), CITRIC ACID, ARTIFICIAL COLOR (YELLOW 6 LAKE, YELLOW 5 LAKE, YELLOW 5, YELLOW 6), SKIM MILK, NATURAL AND ARTIFICIAL FLAVORS, GARLIC POWDER, LACTIC ACID, DISODIUM INOSINATE, AND DISODIUM GUANYLATE. CONTAINS MILK AND SOY INGREDIENTS   They look a lot the same except for the baked product contains soy. What do you suppose is the hidden source of gluten in the regular Ruffles that is not found in the baked ones? Could you be mistaken in attributing your reaction to the Ruffles? Could it have been from gluten in something else you ate around the same time or even a non-gluten tummy event?
