I just saw that Elisabeth Hasselbeck has won her lawsuit that was filed against her by Susan Hassett. The U.S. District Court in Massachusetts could find no evidence that Hasselbeck had plagiarized Living With Celiac Disease by author Susan
Hassett when writing her book The G-Free Diet. Open Original Shared Link, and am happy that Elisabeth won. Some people believe that any publicity for celiac disease is good publicity, but in this case I disagree. Hopefully Elisabeth still has the
Update from Sarah Ann Harwick 12/03/2010: "Because we seemed to be getting different answers from the MARS company, I decided to call back and speak with a manager about the recent "may contain wheat" warming I found on the Mint M&M's.
Only the Mint and Speckled (both holiday specials) are produced on
the same lines as the pretzel M&M's, and although they do clean the
lines between production, there is the possibility of cross contamination, which is why they now have
I am very encouraged to see that the Open Original Shared Link has written a new article on gluten sensitivity and its impact on the brain. The new article is correct in pointing out that gluten can have a severe impact on certain individuals who are sensitive to it. Hopefully this article will be covered by other papers around the country, as it is very important to convey this message to as many people as possible.

This just in from Jodi Walen:

this. Their website as of tonight does not list this as an ingredient. I
have emailed the company. Please pass this on." Let's all contact the company and

Leading gluten free granola manufacturer Bakery On Main experienced a fire on June 1 at approximately 9:30 am in its granola and granola bar manufacturing plant in East Hartford, CT. The fire started due to a faulty exhaust fan located in an attic area. The building’s sprinkler system contained the fire and the East Hartford fire department responded with exceptional speed and professionalism to put out the fire.

I got a phone call last night from my friend Youssef (he also produces my celiac disease Podcasts) who informed me that Elisabeth Hasselbeck, author of The G-Free Diet: A Gluten-Free Survival Guide (2009), was being sued for plagiarism and copyright violation by Susan Hassett, author of Living With Celiac Disease (2008). He was concerned that there might be some merit to the case, and if so, perhaps I shouldn’t have Elisabeth Hasselbeck on the front page of Celiac.com. After a quick internet sea
Very few people have the star power that Elisabeth Hasselbeck of ABC's The View commands, and among those who do have it even fewer put this power to positive use. Over the past two days Elisabeth has openly discussed celiac disease and the gluten-free diet extensively on Open Original Shared Link, and on Open Original Shared Link. Elisabeth's appearances are timed to promote her new book: The
G-Free Diet: A Gluten-Free Survival Guide, which is now a national best seller. I have no doub
