Some Stores Do Care!

So, a few days ago i posted a recipe that i got from the flyer of a store in midtown manhattan. Well everyone loved the recipe so i decided to email the store and thank them, b/c i find that they always have lots of gluten-free products and I like to reward stores that make the extra effort. Well, this is the response i got IMMEDIATELY, i seriously love this store!!!

Thanks for the kind words. We do try to carry alot of gluten free items and if they sell we will keep them in the store. The ones that do not sell, we try to replace with other gluten free products. I wish we had a bigger store so we could create a section for gluten free products, but i personally think it is good how we have all the products mixed in with the categories they belong to ( like gluten-free cookies with cookies, etc) because that will make people read ingredients more closely, as certain people who have gluten allergies or sensitivities can not eat certain non gluten producing grains. I think knowledge is so much more important than convenience.

We just got a new line of gluten free cookies and granola in today as well. The company is Kate's Baked Goods and we got 4 different packages of cookies and one granola in to try. They are in aisle 3 right past the juices.

Thanks for your patronage of our store and your feedback!

It is a lovely letter and good business sense to make sure that people with special dietary concerns are not excluded.

      Trying to read my lab results

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep...

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      Why?

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific?

      Why?

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
