Finally A Fun Work Event

Every month on the last Thursday we have a staff meeting where they provide water and Subway Cookies. The last one I went to I brought some Whole Foods Pecan cookies, which were ok, but kinda dry and I was sad. This time I have Kinnikinick chocoalte chip cookies.

I have this engineer guy that I work with who I joke with alot, I'm just one of the guys, etc. I've been talking to him ( and everyone else) incessantly about Celiac.

I go into the meeting and go to sit down next to him. He is sitting there eating a cookie and starts making num num noises and eating it very ostentatiously ( nobody get mad, its the kind of relationship we have) . I take out my little ziplock baggie of chocolate chip cookies and start eating them in big bites and going mmmmmmmm oooooohhhh mmmmmmmhmmmmm.

He looks at my cookies for a minute and says "oh man those look really good, can I have one?"

Hehehehehehehe. I said no, and finished them, then licked the crumbs out of the bag.

He asked me where I got them when we left.

<maniacal giggle>

I thought it was hysterical, and since every single other work event has sucked, I thought I'd share the fun.

Those cookies are so good its all I can do to keep from eating the whole box.

      Hello, I was very stick,  with flu like symptoms, but my virus panel came back negative and we couldn’t figure out what’s going on. The doctor then added a celiac panel.  Has anyone ever had such a dramatic change?  What are the odds this is true celiac I am going to have an endoscopy, but it’s expensive and I just feel like why can’t the labs be enough?

      Eating out in general is full of risks, but this article may help:

      This kind of question is always difficult to give a definitive answer to because of so many variables. One such variable is the sensitivity of the individual celiac to small amounts of gluten cross contamination. An amount that causes a reaction in one celiac many not in another, or at least not be discernable which, of course, does not exactly equate to being "safe".

      I don't live in the US, but based on this thread, I wouldn't risk it:   https://www.reddit.com/r/glutenfree/comments/1n2ehw8/cracker_barrel/   This app is helpful: https://www.findmeglutenfree.com/

      I see that Cracker Barrel restaurants have a gluten free menu (not all locations, but one confirmed that they do). I was wondering if it is safe for my 5 year old son with celiac disease?
