I'm in search of a good thermos. Something that is reliable, well made, and keeps food warm for several hours. Any recommendations?

With those, I have heard that buying the real thermos kind and paying a little more can be worth it.  Definitely check out reviews before you buy, they can say a lot.

We have a thermos ( Coleman brand?) for coffee. The key is to put hot water in the thermos for several minutes before you put the hot food in to warm it. It makes a big difference.

crockpot makes a little crock for re-heating food if you have a plug. It's not for cooking but you could put cooked chile in it and have it ready in a hotel room in a couple of hours while you go out.

I use the Ms. Bento for my girls' lunches. They say their food is warm at lunch time and it hols quite a bit of food! I keep the bottom cup full of hot water because the middle cup holds all of their food. The brand is Zojirushi. It costs more, but worth it to me.

Coleman is fantastic. I just got back from my holiday away. I took all my dehydrated meals I made, and rehydrated them early in the day, they were piping hot at dinner time. definitely preheat it with boiling water first.

Avoid Aladdin brand. Every one I have ever had (two that I bought and a couple that were gifts) has leaked. I would stick with Thermos brand or as others have mentioned, Coleman.

Thanks for the recommendations. I picked up a Thermos brand 24 oz food jar. It's supposed to be able to keep food hot for 9 hours or cold for 12 hours. I'm looking forward to trying it!

We love the thermos! It's made my life so much easier to just pack hot food in it whenever I need to pack food to go somewhere. Well worth the extra expense to get a good one! The thermos keeps food hot for up to 9 hours.

      Prepping for Testing advice?

      By xxnonamexx · Posted

      I also read this which some recommended as well: NASPGHAN recommends eating roughly 2 servings of gluten, equivalent to 2 slices of wheat-based bread, daily for 6-8 weeks prior to testing.

      Prepping for Testing advice?

      By xxnonamexx · Posted

      My dr. stated to eat gluten for 4 weeks before bloodtest. I feel so much better w/o gluten and was going to wait until after the summer vacation but hesitating since reading the antibodies might go away etc. and if I can get it over with before hand especially before daughters graduation next month and before summer might be nice. Any tips besides eating at least 4 slices of whole wheat to get 10g of gluten in for testing. Im more worried about when it hits to find a bathroom especially b/c it can be after eating a meal or might not hit until after 2 days etc. Should I just go back to eating normal to prepare or does it make sense eat 2 slices whole wheat 2x a day and the rest gluten free to prep for test? I noticed b4 gluten free diet I started 5 weeks ago I would have non gluten-free oatmeal and have to go to bathroom right after eating or 2 hrs later. In afternoon I would eat whole wheat and not need to go immediately to bathroom after eating. What steps did you take for test prep.

      Confusion about my son's results

      By trents · Posted

      Most doctors don't even order anything besides the tTG-IGA and maybe total IGA when doing blood testing for celiac disease. The EMA is the very first celiac blood antibody test that was developed and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which is less expensive to run in the lab. My understanding is they both pretty much check for the same thing. The IGG tests are second tier tools that are less specific for celiac disease. It is not at all uncommon for the EMA and the tTG-IGA to disagree with one another. We frequently see this on the forum. I do not know why. Please realize that doctors typically run a number of tests when diagnosing a medical condition. If there was one test that was foolproof, there would not be a need for other tests and other testing modalities. It works that way with many or most diseases.

      But yes seeing all those negatives does give me a bit of doubt! I feel confident but those results give me a seed of doubt. Especially since it's a lifelong diet for him!
