minor bit of whining

Does anyone find it frustrating when co-workers bring in goodies you are not able to have?  Drives me nuts.  The staff had a pizza party for lunch break today, donuts included.  Knowing the consequences of ingesting gluten seriously outweighs the temptation to snitch even a corner off a donut.  GGGRRRRR!!!!

Ok. I am done whining.  Back to real life. :) Have a great day y'all!

A good excuse to get your favorite treat on the way home. Glad you resisted the temptation.

I found out that the fast food place on the way home has a separate vat of oil for their French fries.  It is not used for anything but the French fries.  Might stop there on the way home. :)

I enjoy participating on treat days by making some gluten free goodies to share.  It is especially gratifying to see wheat eaters enjoying a slice of gluten free banana bread, for example, and taking second helpings. :)  And like you, I just remember that eating anything with wheat in it is equal to splashing battery acid on my skin.  It's just not worth it!

It was never tempting for me.  It bothered the people sitting near me while I ate my own food more than it did me!  Get a gluten-free candy bar from the vending machine... that takes the edge off!

      Hi, I have worked in education in the past. Based on where assigned and building crowding I made adjustments when needed.  I understand completely what you mentioned. I brought food from home in my own Pyrex glass container.  I kept it in my own lunch tote that I kept with me during the day. In the teacher's lounge/staff lunch room I would wipe down the area I sat at with soap and water with disposable paper towel.  I also placed down a fabric placemat prior to unpacking my meal. Unfortunately, one district I could never use the microwaves as they were filled with splatters and crumbs. (To be honest at that one school even if I didn't have this condition, I would not have used those...

      People get genetic modification confused with hybridization. Wheat, as has most of our food crops, has been altered through hybridization to make it more disease resistant, more drought resistant and even to increase the gluten content. Hybridization uses selective breeding/cross pollination to enhance certain characteristics. Genetic modification, on the other hand, uses a "gene gun" to knock out certain genes and replace them with unnatural ones. In some cases, plant genes are replaced with animal genes to achieve certain properties. This is what GMO is about. Have you actually been formerly tested for celiac disease, either by blood antibody testing, biopsy or both, to rule...

      Thank you for your response. I have had several different antibiotics over the years and none affected my sensitivity to wheat products which I assumed was due to the gluten in them. However I do believe this time it was an antibiotic I’ve never had before so if your explanation is correct it would seem this antibiotic (cefuroxime 500 MG tablet Commonly known as: CEFTIN, 1 tablet by mouth 2 (Two) Times a Day for 10 days.)  could be a cure for my sort of sensitivity. I assume the hospital IV was the same antibiotic. The IV was ordered because my blood culture showed bacteria in my blood. I remember hearing years ago the gmo wheat was found in some products but I guess that...

      Welcome to the forum, @The Logician! Many antibiotics have anti-inflammatory properties. By the way, GMO wheat is not used in food products: https://www.chefsresource.com/faq/is-wheat-genetically-modified-in-the-united-states/ There is a common misconception that it is.

      I do not have celiac disease however for 20 years-plus I have been sensitive to gluten. A slice of bread will give me diarrhea in less than an hour. This started with me around the time I believe GMO wheat was beginning to appear in products on the market. Last week i went into the hospital to get antibiotic IV for three days. While there I was constipated so I figured eating gluten would fix that. I had gluten at every meal and it had no affect on me. I was still constipated until I got home and hen started having normal bowel movements even though I continued eating gluten products and I have never felt better! Not even a hint of diarrhea. I’ve eaten some gluten in bread, cream of wheat...
