Boulder Canyon kettled cooked in 100% olive oil potato chips.

 

Blue Bunny All Natural vanilla ice cream.

 

I think that's about it. Other than those, I just eat meals.

Choboni, or sometimes if I have coupons or get a thing for a weird flavor I'll get Yoplait, but they aren't all natural so I'm not so into it. But I believe (could be wrong, always check)  that all Yoplait flavors are gluten free, which includes the Boston Creme, Red Velvet, and other cake and pie inspired flavors.

 

I also love to just keep fresh veggies around the house and snack on those with Brianna's ranch dressing. The ranch may undo some of the overall good I'm doing by having veggies as a snack, but it's just so good.  As spring and summer are rolling around, I'll be keeping more fresh fruits too. More than apples and winter things anyway. I'm very excited for it to be melon season again.

 

I don't buy into the needing gluten-free replacement foods thing. There are a lot of naturally gluten-free foods for us that won't break the bank. That said, I wouldn't be caught dead without Breton crackers in my house. Never know when I'll get a hankering for cheese and crackers, and nothing else tastes like a cracker like Breton does.

Edy's fruit bars, chips and salsa and (when I'm feeling rich and fat), Glutino white yogurt covered pretzels.

Omg... ice cream bars? Forget it. Talenti makes gelato bars now. Dipped. In. Chocolate. Excuse me, I was just drooling on myself.

I eat popcorn all the time.  I have a cheap air popper and I can make however much I want and control what goes in.  I eat a lot of bananas, lately I have been making fruit smoothies as a late night snack for the husband and I.  I am also a fan of the Snyders gluten-free pretzels.  They are one of the few direct replacement products I buy.  I buy the Van's oat bars for when I am out of the house and caught hungry.

My gluten eating husband likes Snyder's gluten-free pretzels as much as, or maybe more than, regular pretzels. They're so good no one would ever guess they were gluten free. When a really huge video game I was excited about was being released and I was doing the midnight release party 2 years ago I chocolate dipped 2 bags of them. They hold up really well to dipping. They also make flavored gluten-free ones now too.

 

I didn't think of this before, but for out of the house grab and go snacks I still love bars. Kind, Trio, Envirokids, doesn't matter really. Any of them will do, it just depends on what I'm in the mood for. If you have funny teeth though, remember to keep those pocket flossers if you do the seed bars.

I love all fruits and veggies.Never met one I did not like. True story!   I do indulge in a homemade blue cheese dip on occasion. 

 

I make awesome granola bars (I can give you the recipe if you want)

 

I like the Kind bars with pecans and cinnamon once and a while...very yummy.

 

I tried a Plentils snack when I was at the GFLIVING conference last weekend and it was good.

The hubs likes the Snyder's pretzels. He is gluten-free too but even my non-gluten-free friends like those--as well as Crunchmaster Sea salt crackers. 

 

I do not eat too many snacky things because I will get more chubby. LOL

 

but hey..... who doesn't like  sea salt and caramel GELATO??? :)

Lara bars, nuts and chocolate chips or trail mix, pepperoni sticks, chai tea with coconut cream.... Mmmmm

 

I have one son who's favourite snack is any fruit, cucumbers, and Chex.  Another son loves coconut flour muffins, rice crackers, nuts, and chips. And my youngest will eat almost anything (bless him  LOL).

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      @klmgarland, My dermatitis herpetiformis didn't clear up until I became meticulous about cross contamination. I cut out gluten-free oats and all gluten-free foods, dairy and gluten-free rice. Additionally, getting the right amount of protein for my body weight helped significantly in my body's healing process ... along with supplementing with enough of all the vitamins and minerals ... especially Zinc and Magnesium. I went from 70kg to 82kg in a year. Protein with each meal 3 times daily, especially eggs at breakfast made the difference. I'm not sure whether iodine was a problem for me, but I can tolerate iodine no problem now. I'm off Dapsone and feel great. Not a sign of an itch. So there is hope. I'm not advocating for the use of Dapsone, but it can bring a huge amount of relief despite it's effect on red blood cells. The itch is so distracting and debilitating. I tried many times to get off it, it wasn't until I implemented the changes above and was consistent that I got off it. Dermatitis Herpetiformis is horrible, I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      By klmgarland · Posted

      Thank you so very much Scott.  Just having someone understand my situation is so very helpful.  If I have one more family member ask me how my little itchy skin thing is going and can't you just take a pill and it will go away and just a little bit of gluten can't hurt you!!!! I think I will scream!!

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It is difficult to do the detective work of tracking down hidden sources of cross-contamination. The scenarios you described—the kiss, the dish towel, the toaster, the grandbaby's fingers—are all classic ways those with dermatitis herpetiformis might get glutened, and it's a brutal learning curve that the medical world rarely prepares you for. It is difficult to have to deal with such hyper-vigilance. The fact that you have made your entire home environment, from makeup to cleaners, gluten-free is a big achievement, but it's clear the external world and shared spaces remain a minefield. Considering Dapsone is a logical and often necessary step for many with DH to break the cycle of itching and allow the skin to heal while you continue your detective work; it is a powerful tool to give you back your quality of life and sleep. You are not failing; you are fighting an incredibly steep battle. For a more specific direction, connecting with a dedicated celiac support group (online or locally) can be invaluable, as members exchange the most current, real-world tips for avoiding cross-contamination that you simply won't find in a pamphlet. You have already done the hardest part by getting a correct diagnosis. Now, the community can help you navigate the rest. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      My only proof

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's very frustrating to be dismissed by medical professionals, especially when you are the one living with the reality of your condition every day. Having to be your own advocate and "fight" for a doctor who will listen is an exhausting burden that no one should have to carry. While that 1998 brochure is a crucial piece of your personal history, it's infuriating that the medical system often requires more contemporary, formal documentation to take a condition seriously. It's a common and deeply unfair situation for those who were diagnosed decades ago, before current record-keeping and testing were standard. You are not alone in this struggle.

      Methylprednisone treatment for inflammation?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Methylprednisolone is sometimes prescribed for significant inflammation of the stomach and intestines, particularly for conditions like Crohn's disease, certain types of severe colitis, or autoimmune-related gastrointestinal inflammation. As a corticosteroid, it works by powerfully and quickly suppressing the immune system's inflammatory response. For many people, it can be very effective at reducing inflammation and providing rapid relief from symptoms like pain, diarrhea, and bleeding, often serving as a short-term "rescue" treatment to bring a severe flare under control. However, experiences can vary, and its effectiveness depends heavily on the specific cause of the inflammation. It's also important to be aware that while it can work well, it comes with potential side effects, especially with longer-term use, so it's typically used for the shortest duration possible under close medical supervision. It's always best to discuss the potential benefits and risks specific to your situation with your gastroenterologist.
