I got some vans cheese crackers and  some hodgson corn bread mix.

I've heard really good things about the Van's crackers but just haven't ever tried them.

 

I swear by Hodgson Mills brownie mix as my go to for in a pinch. I haven't tried the corn bread, but I have tried a few of their other things and have never been disappointed. I made cornbread stuffing last year for Thanksgiving and was planning on probably doing the same this year, which I need cornbread for. I didn't realize Hodgson makes one, but since I know they do I'll probably pick one up.

The Vans are yummy. They have oats - at least the ones I have had.

Yeah, I can plow through a box of Van's cheesey thingies in no time.

It's Karen's fault I got them. I love them, but.

I do not buy them anymore and my thighs are grateful.

Yes. It's my fault she has fat thighs. I sit my fat butt on her so she can't move and stuff the crackers right in! It's costing me a fortune in crackers! :)

and now, you all know the terrible truth. I'm a victim of senseless cheesy cracker bullying.

Don't let this happen to you. Just say NO! to the cheesy crackers. One bite, and you're hooked.

and then Okee dokee...I see it now....you want Addy's cornbread stuffing recipe.?

Let me give her  shout as she may not have seen this question buried here.

Um... I'd have to figure out where the recipe is exactly. It was in the holiday issue of last year's Living Without. I just need to figure out what I did with it. I sort of misplaced a few of my first issues. :ph34r: I know they didn't get thrown away but I reorganized some things and they're here somewhere. I'll see if I can remember to look for it and find it. If you want regular traditional stuffing, IH's recipe which is posted somewhere over in the cooking section is good. (so I've heard) This is more like a bread pudding consistency but made with cornbread. I like it. Anyway, lots to do today and I'll see what I can conjure.

You really thought they were that bad? I prefer squishier ones (and homemade to boot), but, I tried them once and thought they were about a B-/C+ ish.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much...

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/
