    Publix Pulls Magazine Over Gluten-free Mix-up

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    Celiac.com 11/09/2011 - The Publix supermarket company recently pulled its fall issue of Publix GreenWise Market magazine, because it included a recipe that was erroneously labeled as 'gluten-free.'

    Photo: CC--ferret111The company also announced plans to mail a follow-up warning about the recipe to print subscribers.

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
    The recipe for Orange-Honey Sweet Rolls included wheat germ and yeast, some brands of which contain gluten. The recipe appeared on Page 18 of the magazine.

    Publix's swift and decisive action to correct the mistake shows a strong level of commitment to gluten-free consumers.

    The letter to print subscribers said that "the recipe for Orange-Honey Sweet Rolls, which appears on page 18, calls for the use of gluten-free flour as an ingredient; however, the complete recipe was not intended to be gluten-free. In fact, the recipe includes ingredients which contain gluten, therefore, it is not suitable for those with celiac disease or gluten intolerance."

    Publix operates 1,039 stores in the Southeast, including GreenWise Markets in Palm Beach Gardens and Boca Raton, Florida.

    5 stars for the article, and for Publix pulling the magazine. They get a D- for apparently assigning the task of creating or finding gluten-free recipes to someone who had zero clue, same with their supervisor.

    Naming the ingredients that were not gluten-free in a recipe that used gluten free flour would have been helpful -- sometimes subtle errors are the most threatening.

    I find Publix to be a great source of gluten-free items...they put gluten-free labels on the shelf, which makes shopping much quicker. They are truly committed to serving the gluten-free customer.

    Great Gluten-free Bread from USDA Scientists?
    Celiac.com 01/13/2011 - It might be rocket science, after all. Well, sort of. It turns out that engineering a good loaf of gluten-free bread is the focus of some of the best scientific minds in the food business.
    It also turns out that scientists with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) in Manhattan, Kansas, have developed a process that produces a high-quality, gluten-free bread.
    Such bread, if produced on a large scale, might benefit the millions of Americans with celiac disease who are unable to digest gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley and rye. Gluten-free grains include corn, sorghum, and rice, among others.
    The new bread-making process is the work of chemists Scott Bean and Tilman Schober at the Agricultural Research Service (ARS) Grain Quality and Structure...

    Domino's Pizza Now Offers
    I have a big issue with what I believe to be a misleading headline in a recent joint press release by Domino's Pizza and the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness (NFCA)...here is the headline:
    "Domino’s Pizza Becomes First National Pizza Delivery Chain to Offer Gluten Free Crust"
    When you read the release further, starting at the 5th paragraph, which many people will never get to, it says:
    "While Domino’s new Gluten Free Crust is appropriate for those with mild gluten sensitivity, Domino’s and the NFCA do not recommend it for those with celiac disease. Domino’s and the NFCA found that while the crust is certified as gluten free, current store operations at Domino’s cannot guarantee that each handcrafted pizza will be completely free from gluten."

    Is Soy Sauce Gluten-free?
    Celiac.com 10/11/2012 - Would you be surprised to learn that a number of naturally brewed soy sauces are technically gluten-free? I was.
    I was recently doing some research for a catered even and needed to make a decision about what kind of soy sauce to use in the food preparation. Since the Korean food being served required a great deal of soy sauce for marinating purposes, the hosts were concerned that gluten-free tamari might end up costing too much. However, the event included a number of folks who eat gluten-free, and the hosts did want to provide food that everyone could eat. So, what to do? The restaurant making the food uses Kikkoman. Is Kikkoman safe to serve to people with celiac disease and gluten-intolerance?
    In an effort to answer that question, I did a bit of...

    Gluten-free Fish Sticks Keep Britain's Oldest Dog Happy and Healthy
    Celiac.com 12/11/2014 - A pampered a Jack Russell terrier is being hailed as Britain’s oldest dog after reaching the ripe old age of 25 years, and gluten-free fish fingers are among the foods that keep her happy and healthy.
    The dog, called Meg, eats whatever she likes theses days, says owner David Abrahams, of Stoke St Michael, Somerset, and that includes roast dinners, gluten-free fish fingers and Peppa Pig-shaped spaghetti in tomato sauce.
    Of course, the pasta includes gluten, so Meg’s diet is not gluten-free, but Abrahams says, the “fish fingers and the Peppa Pig pasta have helped her along the way.”

      Probably celiac but also confused

      Hi @terrymouse Generally, after a Celiac Seriology Blood Test, if something anomalous shows up, the follow-up will be a Gastroscope. Your Endocrinonogist will be looking to see if you still have (Villi). Villi are Tenticles/Hairs that are prevalent throughout the small intestine; their function is to extract nutrients, vitamins and water. The absense...

      Can Celiac flares affect my eyes?

      Thank you Knitty Kitty, I have all the information for the nutritionist sitting in front of me, but I've procrastinated. Between you and Scott - I'll contact him tomorrow and get started on a better me. Thank you both for all the support and information.

      Can Celiac flares affect my eyes?

      Hi, @jeriM, I can attest to Celiac and eye problems being connected! There's a higher rate of Sjogren's Syndrome in Celiac people than in those without celiac disease. Sjogren's Syndrome causes dry eyes and can even lead to dry mouth which can alter taste and smell. Have your doctor check for Sjogren's. Correct low Vitamin D, which regulates...

      Can Celiac flares affect my eyes?

      Ah, Scott, Ha ha! Thats almost a reasonable assumption given the prices during the shortage. However, our eggs? We always gave them away to friends and seniors we know, so no mansion here. Now we have to buy eggs like everyone else. The house we found, we loved so much that it made it worth it for us to give up the chickens. A hard decision...
