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.

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).

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      My question I have proposed to the FDA through their website is why Prescription and OTC drug manufacturers are not required to list what binding ingredients were used to bine the drug? They list this on Capsules which are made of cellulose but not on pills? As it stands I or my pharmacist must contact the manufacturer to find out and my list is long from...

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
