Hi,

I am taking my first vacation since being gluten-free. I'd like to take my toaster with me and stow it in my luggage. I checked the jet blue website, but it said nothing about bringing toasters on the plane. Has anyone ever traveled with one? Should I just buy one when I get to Florida?

I don't think it would be a problem as long as its in your checked baggage and not carry-on. Some TSA guys might think you're weird, but tape a note to it, I'm sure they've seen weirder stuff. You are pretty much garunteed they're going to open your bags, but they've opened mine every time I've flown since the new rules went into effect, So I'm no longer fazed by that.

I learned somewhere on here..when traveling use some bags you put into any toaster and it protects YOUR food. can some one share the name of these and how you get them??

I'm traveling March 2 and forgot about these 'bags' could sure some...do you really want to lug a toaster...?

I have those toaster bags myself and they are definitely easier to take with than a toaster, so you may want to try them. :)

THANKS SO MUCH

just called QVC and they will deliver by Feb 23 so i'll have in time to go to CA.

Patty, you know the thread of people who use paper towels in the micro wave...Did you post this on that thread? DOn't have time today ...still working on getting the pre cert for sleep study on vatentines day nite...grrrrrr.

I could post if no one else had..i used paper towels all the time to cover and this set has a liner for your cookies sheet..never thought of cc with that...and one for micro wave plus the toaster bags.

will cost $23.11 with shipping but if it keeps me 'healthy' while traveling...cheaper than 2 boxes of IM AD tablets...and now symptoms.

Thanks for the Q and you and Jen's and Elwony help. Elwony, tried to call your company but couldn't get anyone to talk too so wanted to see if i could get in time for CA.

So 'hyper' now don't know if I posted it before..

:ph34r:

too much going on and am 'spinning now

hate it when i do that'

tooth still hurts and dentist still researching....grrrr

I was just thinking about posting this question! I'm also going to Florida soon, and was wondering about just buying a cheap toaster to bring down with me (figuring if I did a lot of shopping I could abandon it for the way home). The toaster bags, while a great idea, won't work as I'm in a hotel and they won't provide me with a toaster. But the bags sound great, haven't tried the Crock Pot bags yet either... which is a bit off topic, but anything that saves me from scrubbing it out sounds good to me.

So you CAN travel with one in your suitcase?

wanted to tell you, a really nice lady from your company called me back. She was so nice and is sending me a catalog...it's a good price if you just want to try the bags..QVC has more in package. not sure if there other companies who make these...

1.NoStick Toast it Toaster Bags

2.Nonstick Toaster Bag & liner set.

are there other bands out there?

THANKS AGAIN FOR YOUR TIME.. We should meet in CA after all the time you've taken help me get there :)

Man oh man! I've never even heard of these toaster bags! What a great idea! Thank you for sending the link. I'll give it a shot, but don't know if I'd get them in time.

I know I sound psycho for wanting to bring my toaster with me, but I will also be in a hotel, and not sure whether one will be provided. I think I'm going to try to bring it with me. I'll stick in my stow away luggage with a note taped to it (good idea Elowny).

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      I agree with @trents, but thank you for bringing this up here!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      By Jane02 · Posted

      Hi @trents, yes I've had my levels checked in Dec 2025 which revealed vit D deficiency. I considered eggs although they only contain about 45 IU vitamin D/egg. I need 2000 IU vitamin D for maintenance as per my doctor. Although now, I likely need way more than that to treat the deficiency. My doctor has yet to advise me on dosing for deficiency. I've also considered cod liver oil, although again, if it's processed in a facility that has gluten, especially on flour form, I worried to test it, even if they have protocols in place to mitigate cross-contamination with gluten.

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Jane02! Have you had your serum D levels checked for deficiency/sufficiency? What about cod liver oil? Egg yolks can also be a good source of vitamin D.

      By Jane02 · Posted

      Hello, I'm very discouraged. I've been trying to find a safe vitamin mineral supplement brand for months and am tired of testing one after the other and experiencing my typical 'glutening' reactions. I'm really feeling the nutritional deficiencies set in. I'm doing the best I can to get these nutrients from my food, although it's impossible for me to intake enough vitamin D as I can't have dairy and have insufficient sun exposure in the northern hemisphere. I've tried B Complex from Country Life (certified gluten-free) - horrible reaction. I've tried Metagenics vitamin D tab (certified glute-free) - bad reaction. I've tried liquid vitamin D Thorne and D Drops - reactions were mild since I tried a drop of a drop. I understand there could be other things I'm reacting to in my diet, although my diet/intake is pretty consistent with minimal variables so I do think it's something in these supplements. I understand I could be reacting to the active ingredient vitamin/mineral itself or even the filler ingredients. I tried the vitamin D drops since the only filler ingredient is coconut oil, in some brands, which I know I can tolerate really well on its own - I cook with coconut oil frequently and have no 'glutening' reactions at all. Perhaps I'm reacting to the vitamin D itself, although I eat fatty fish every few days, an entire fillet with no 'glutening' reactions, which contains anywhere between 400-600 IU per fillet so I shouldn't be sensitive to vitamin D. All this to say, I'm desperately looking for at least a safe vitamin D supplement. Does anyone know of a safe vitamin D supplement brand? I'd love to know if there are any supplement brands that have absolutely no gluten (especially in flour form) in their facilities. I've heard of Kirkman having no grains in their facility - I may try this brand. Has anyone reacted to this brand?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.
