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.

      The Benfotiamine and thiamax need magnesium to make life sustaining enzymes.  Yes, go ahead and take the Benfotiamine and Thiamax now and include the magnesium as soon as possible.   Yes, take the magnesium at breakfast, too.   I take my Benfotiamine and TTFD Thiamax and B Complex  at the beginning of breakfast.  I take the magnesium after I finish eating breakfast.  Yes, I take NeuroMag.

      @knitty kitty thank you for replying so quickly! I have not done well at all taking vitamins or supplements, I have such a hard time swallowing even small pills, so I have resorted to crushing them and taking them with Gatorade.  Pretty much I eat baked chicken tenders, Fairlife chocolate protein shakes, gluten free crackers. Thank you so much for the advice, I will try it all for sure, because everything I have tried OTC has done nothing

      Hi, thank you for the quick reply! I was diagnosed about 5 years ago I think,  I try to be extremely careful with what I eat so I don't get cross contamination. I used to get little sores in my mouth when I was little, usually from sucking on hard candy, but L-lisene would clear it right up. I got that Nasal Navage thing and used it twice and that's when I thought I had a sinus infection. So I got a z pack. Then I noticed my tongue was coated and it was white except right down the middle which was more brown and crusty, like the corners of my mouth. I also have dry mouth and I went way too long before I started treating it. So then I had some kind of huge pill and Nystatin mouthwash. My mother in law's new husband ( they live upstairs) started complaining of exactly the same symptoms as me. He went to urgent care, they said it wasn't thrush, it was shingles. We both went to our dentist's for cleanings, I don't have insurance so I really couldn't tell they cleaned my teeth at all. But she said my mouth looked good, all cleared up. I had a day and a half of no pain and then it came right back. So I got more pills and miracle mouthwash. There are times it feels like dry socket and times it feels like it's bleeding but it's not. I don't see any gum or facial swelling, I did see a couple of tiny ulcers on my bottom lip, roof of my mouth is still sore, and my tongue and cheeks are still a little coated. I am just at a loss. My mother in law's husband, they  took swabs and called back a week later and said it was a new herpes variant virus that is going around but not contagious. He was cured after a week! And I'm going on 3 months 😭

      The thiamax and benfo I ordered should come tomorrow. I will start Friday ny b complex the benfo and thiamax for breakfast. I haven't ordered magnesium yet. I wanted to start with this first then add magnesium. Should it be fine to take b complex the thia/benfo and eventually magnesium at breakfast together? Thanks
