Casey's Cafe In Half Moon Bay, California
20 October 2012 - 08:49 PM
I highly recommend Casey's Cafe in Half Moon Bay, California, for excellent gluten free food and superior service. The owner eats gluten free, and creates many of the recipes. We had a late lunch there today. I enjoyed yummy pumpkin soup served with (I think they're called) pampusas, something like that. It's a fried, crispy food, like very thin sheets of a gluten free dough, I think made of garbanzo beans. Very tasty. And we splurged and shared an apple crisp, gluten free, of course. So seldom I can have dessert when we eat out! I've eaten at Casey's several times, and thoroughly enjoyed each experience.
Kirkland Brand Canned Chicken Breasts, Gluten Free Or Not?
20 April 2012 - 12:28 PM
The most recent post on Kirkland canned chicken breast is from 2010.
So. Is this still safe and gluten free? Or, what is the best way to contact CostCo for information? Last time I tried that it was a very frustrating experience.
Something 'got' me this morning, probably something I ate yesterday. (Usually I react about 18 hours after contact.) The canned chicken is the only thing I can think of from yesterday's food list, unless the culprit is from Wednesday. I can't think back that far, as this has not been a good week for me, physically or energetically. LOTS of brain fog and fatigue since last weekend.
I hope the Kirkland canned chicken is ok. It's a good 'go to' when I need some instant protein and nothing else is easily available.

Gluten Free Matzoh Recipe?
27 March 2012 - 09:55 AM
Does anyone have a fool proof recipe for gluten free matzoh you would be willing to share?
I've tried a couple in past years and have not liked the results.
I'm the only gluten free person who will attend our seder, so I might just bring Crunchmaster crackers with me. We don't keep kosher for Pesach the whole week, so it's just for the seder. It would be nice to be able to have matzoh-brei, though.
Thanks!!

Pink Himalayan Sea Salt From Trader Joe's
26 March 2012 - 08:38 AM
Last Friday I bought a grinder bottle of Pink Himalayan Sea Salt from Trader Joe's, and used it several times during the weekend. Last night I noticed that it is made in a facility that also processes wheat. Heck. You'd think salt would be safe, right? 
Today my digestive system is a little off, with some nausea and tummy rumbles. I'm also achy and tired and feel 'fibro-y', which is my more usual response to gluten.
Should I be blaming the salt? Or is this 'cya' from TJ's, do you think? I ate at home all weekend, only had food that I prepared in my own kitchen. (My kitchen is shared with my spouse who is not gluten free, but we are very careful. Last week I bought myself my very own brand new toaster, so we are no longer sharing the toaster oven. It was time.)
Maybe I should give away that salt. humph.

Nature Valley Roasted Nut Crunch Granola Bars
03 January 2012 - 06:21 PM
At Safeway today, while picking up Nature Valley granola bars for my spouse, I noticed that Nature Valley has granola bars that say GLUTEN FREE right on the box! The ingredients look good, there is no mention of shared facilities with gluten ingredients, and they are "A proud supporter of the Celiac Disease Foundation". Is this too good to be true?
I ate one this afternoon, but I don't react for 18 to 36 hours. (Makes it difficult to figure out the culprit.) We'll see... I hope these are truly gluten free. It was so nice to pick up a 'mainstream' product that is gluten free. And VERY tasty!
