Hey there all,

I am a 22 year old celiac law student completing a business subject (marketing) as a non-law elective in my course of studies at QUT (Queensland University of Technology) in Brisbane, Australia. In this subject, our major assignment is to bring up a marketing plan for a product. The best marketing plan gets to present the product to industry professionals and potentially have the opportunity to take it further.

For my group's assignment we have decided to come up with a food product tailored for celiacs. Being a celiac, I have noticed several things that I miss and a lot of things that I would like to eat.

I am wondering if you would be able to help me with my assignment by shouting out about what food products that you would possibly like to see on the market. I know a big one for me was beer and now there are a couple of companies that provide this.

Any help would be very appreciated! :D

Thanks again :)

I would like to see gluten free biscuits and crescents in a can. Gluten free twizzler and gluten free cakes and pies in the bakery sections of grocery stores. Or at least the ability to special order cakes or pies from regular grocery stores.

SUBWAY SANDWICH BREAD..... :P No, seriously, it makes me cry.... :( I'm a native New Yorker ... I've given up on bagels and pizza.. for the love of potato flour, can they come up with some french bread rolls that I can make a decent sandwich on?!!

How about something cheesy - like cream cheese, or mozzerella... something gluten-free, casein free, lactose free and soy free?

Gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free maple bars. I even had a dream about them last night.

Milk free and gluten free frozen entrees.

DingoGirl Enthusiast

When I am exhausted and hungy, I would just LOVE to be able to hit a drive-thru now and then, and something other than Wendy's chili....

Also gluten-free fluffy, melting donuts, like Krispy Kreme....gluten-free crusty, heavy sourdough bread.... *sniff* :(

Here lately, I've been having a re-accuring dream that I'm on vacation and I stumble into some magical gluten-free world where there are gluten-free restaraunts and grocery stores. I had one dream a few weeks ago about the grocery store....and there was gluten-free pita bread, focaccia, baklava, angel food cake....and all the the other goodies. The whole store was gluten-free! The funny part about the dream though (and I swear I'm not making this up!) was when I got to the checkout with all my gluten-free stuff and my cart-full cost $4,000! :lol::lol:

Then a couple nights ago I had one about a restaurant. It was nothing special as restaurants go...just a walk-up and take out kind of place. I was walking by and I saw on their menu outside that it was run by some of the members on this board :P I ran inside, and it was all Italian carry out food. Pasta dishes, pizzas, ravioli..mmmmmm Sure beats my dreams about eating half a piece of pizza before thinking about what I'm doing! :rolleyes:

Yes! Gluten free, dairy free rice cheese. (WHY do they put dairy in a rice cheese? ) AND cereal that you can buy without malt flavoring in the regular grocery aisles.

I would really like to see gluten-free frozen ravioli. I used to love those.

A company like Chef Boy-R-Dee (but Gluten Free) -- Think of the possibilities...

Also, gluten-free TV Dinners and MORE gluten-free Soup that tastes good.

In my opinion, the restaurant thing can be solved via personal education --- if you want to learn about the inner workings of restaurants and dine successfully in them, you need to learn about how food is prepared and always get a manager to help you. (I haven't been glutened in a restaurant in a very long time...)

MAKE THEM PREPARE THINGS IN A SEPARATE PAN

MAKE THEM USE NEW GLOVES AT FAST FOOD PLACES

ASSERT YOURSELF, DON'T POISON YOURSELF

Restaurants are in business due to guest relations and hospitality -- make them cater to you (Be nice and tip graciously, but don't ever be afraid to assert yourself in those places)

I have nightmares about eating something with gluten/casein etc. in and then frantically trying to spit it out, rinse my mouth, etc. Very good feeling to wake up and realise it was just a dream!

Guest Babbia

I would love to see better food labeling in supermarkets. I know that the gluten-free stuff is there in my regular supermarket...just need to know which ones I can have!

Think of the possibilities......

Fiddle-Faddle Community Regular

Almost everything that I like is (except my daughter's favorite Chef-Boy-R-Dee)available either by mail-order or at Whole Foods, BUT

IT'S SO BLEEPING EXPENSIVE!!!!!

I would like to be able to make my meals (even from scratch) without paying for it like it's coming from a 4-star resaurant!!!!! :angry:

Guest nini

I haven't found the S'better Farms corndogs near me... yes I looked on the website at where to buy and I would have to drive into "THE CITY" (gawd forbid!!!) LOL! Anyone who knows me knows that I HATE TO DRIVE!!!! Ah, but for good corndogs, I guess I could force myself!

Carriefaith Enthusiast

I would personally like to see 100% gluten free restaurants! I can't eat out anymore because of cross contamination.

I voted for more convenience foods since Amy's is the only one that I can buy here and a lot of people seem to react to their products. I haven't had Amy's in a long time because I don't want to get sick!

Being vegetarian and gluten free, I would love to see gluten free pasta, at say Olive Garden. So I could take my son there. Also like someone said, more education for restaurants, so they understand celiac.

Also I would love to go to any restaurant. Like Panera bread and get gluten free bread there. I know it is a dream world, but it would be wonderful to eat something other then a baked potatoe. THe social aspect for me with celiac is the worst. Luckily we have a PF chang's down the road. I hate being the one that is "picky". Most of the time I eat at home.

Like someone said, I would die for a sub or a bean burrito with regular flour tortilla.

It has gotten better mourning over these things after a year.

Bread that actually tastes like bread. I'm dreaming, I know..................

astyanax Rookie

tortellini, any kind.

Rusla Enthusiast

There isn't enough of anything anywhere. Most of all we want it to taste good. More of everything especially education on the subject so that others know what this is and how we suffer. More education for doctors on this also.

jerseyangel Proficient

Better understanding on the part of more food manufacturers so there would be less CC worries. I'm ok with my limited food choices--not much I can do about that--but the CC will get me altogether too often with products and eating out. :blink: I think I used too many words there :D

      @cristiana,  I react the same way.  Dairy consumption flushes out my digestive system within an hour, too! As casein is digested, it forms casomorphins that bind to opioid receptors in our bodies.  This is similar to digested gluten peptides being able to attach to opioid receptors in our bodies.   We have opioid receptors throughout our bodies including lots in the digestive tract. Casein raises tTg IgA antibodies just like gluten consumption does, which leads to further intestinal damage and continuing inflammation.  No wonder our bodies react to it by pushing the "emergency evacuation" ejection seat button! The mother of my childhood friend was British and introduced me to drinking tea properly with milk or cream.  I miss it so much.  And chocolate ice cream.  Not worth the after effects, though.  I've found taking Omega Three supplements (flaxseed oil, sunflower seed oil, evening primrose oil) helps shake those dairy cravings.   Green leafy veggies like broccoli, kale, and greens (mustard, turnip, collards) are great sources of calcium.  Avoid spinach as it is high in oxalates that block calcium absorption and may cause kidney stones.  Yes, more leafy greens are needed to reach the same amount of calcium in a glass of milk, but the greens have other benefits, like increased dietary fiber and polyphenols that act as antioxidants, reduce inflammation, and promote health.   Exposure to gluten (and casein in those sensitive to it) can cause an increased immune response and inflammation for months afterwards.  The immune cells that make tTg IgA antibodies which are triggered today are going to live for about two years. During that time, inflammation is heightened.  Those immune cells only replicate when triggered.  If those immune cells don't get triggered again for about two years, they die without leaving any descendents programmed to trigger on gluten and casein.  The immune system forgets gluten and casein need to be attacked.  The Celiac genes turn off.  This is remission.   Some people in remission report being able to consume gluten again without consequence.  Another triggering event can turn the Celiac genes on again.   Celiac genes are turned on by a triggering event (physical or emotional stress).  There's some evidence that thiamine insufficiency contributes to the turning on of autoimmune genes.  There is an increased biological need for thiamine when we are physically or emotionally stressed.  Thiamine cannot be stored for more than twenty-one days and may be depleted in as little as three during physical and emotional stresses. Mitochondria without sufficient thiamine become damaged and don't function properly.  This gets relayed to the genes and autoimmune disease genes turn on.  Thiamine and other B vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients are needed to replace the dysfunctional mitochondria and repair the damage to the body.

      Hi, I bought Naked Nutrition Creatine. It lists itself as gluten free but is not certified. (It used to be, but they dropped it in the past year or two apparently.) I wrote the company and asked them what testing results they had for creatine and they sent me the attached, which says the test result for gluten is <0.025MCG. I'm used to seeing test results as ppm, so I'm not sure what <0.025MCG means. Can it be converted to ppm easily? I want to confirm that it is safe to use.

      When I was still recovering my gastroenterologist suggested I bought lactofree product as I was very bloated.  So I bought some from the supermarket and from memory, I drank a nice big glass of milk - and it went right through me literally within an hour or so, if my memory serves correctly.  I came off dairy completely next and it worked like a charm, but started to reintroduce quite gradually it as I missed it! To this day, if I overdo dairy products, they work like a mild laxative.  I've never wanted to give up milk completely as I like it so much, and my mum had osteoporosis and it's an easy way of getting calcium.  But it doesn't really 'sit' well with me.   You may need to experiment a bit as when I was healing certain dairy products were worse than others - I could cope with one brand of Greek yoghurt, but I got extremely and painfully bloated with another brand of live British yoghurt.

      i have been strictly gluten free for 7 months. this includes avoiding anything that may contain gluten and making sure surfaces and appliances are clean. i am 18 years old in australia and my tTG-IgA results were 69U/mL, pretty low compared to most people's, for reference. i feel the exact same as before. sure, i was pretty much asymptomatic/silent. the worst i'd get was occasionally bad stools and pitting of the nails/brittle hair since early childhood - and i was diagnosed with low iron and vitamin d which checks out due to easy bruising and such. but those symptoms have remained. maybe i'm jumping the gun, sure. i know it can take years to fully heal. but being over half a year in, i feel that i should be, y'know, healing. i'm nearly at my wits end and wondering if i should have a piece of bread or something to see how i go - to see if i possibly have refractory? my mental health is declining as i feel myself wanting to bang my head against a damn wall out of frustration every day. cravings haven't gotten better. look, i love the stuff i still can have, like salads and such. OH! i haven't lost any weight, which is mind boggling considering i eat very healthily now! i've always been on the chubbier side which is atypical of coeliac. i just don't know what's going on with me. i try to remain hopeful but i'm just so sad all the time. thanks for reading

      @Charlie1946There is a PM (Personal Message) tool built into the forum website that allows you to send a private message to other forum users. Just hover over their name with your mouse cursor and the menu containing that tool will pop up. This is useful if you want to communicate with an individual without everyone else involved in the thread seeing it.  Are you realizing that in my PPI taper down recommendations in an earlier post above, I was responding not to your posts but to @Caligirl57? If you must use a PPI, I certainly would advise taking the lowest dose that is effective for you.
