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.

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

      Welcome to the club!😉 This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):    
    • Scott Adams
      I could not find the thread, but I recall at least one user who was drinking regular gluten beer daily but getting celiac blood tests done often (I think it was monthly) and doing a biopsy each year and all celiac disease tests were always negative. Everyone is different, but in general regular beer would be considered low gluten (not gluten-free!). I have no issues with Daura Damm, but those who are super sensitive might.

      Azure Standard (https://www.azurestandard.com/) is one of my gluten-free vendors. I've purchased nuts, "grains", flours, and many other products there. If you are not familiar with Azure, you have to set up an account (no cost) and get your purchases either via shipping (expensive) or "drop" (free if you buy a reasonable minimum). Search their website for a drop location in your area. Each drop location has a local volunteer(?) coordinator who coordinates with the local customers. I go to a drop 4-5 miles from my home that delivers every 2 weeks. We seem to range from 8-18 customers at a given delivery. The downside of the drop is that you have to be there when they say. They give you a few days notice of the precise time, though, and they are punctual. Their pricing relative to other vendors for various products ranges from best price to overpriced, so you have to shop and compare. Quality is mostly good but once in a while you get a dud - however they've been very responsive to giving me a credit on the few occasions when I've complained. In my opinion, they are not as transparent about gluten as they could be. Some products are labeled "gluten free" and so far I trust that. Many products are labeled "Azure Market products are re-packaged by Azure for your convenience in a facility that meets Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) standards, including an approved allergen control program." I've corresponded with them over this and they all but say this means gluten free. I've come to trust this, with a little nervousness, but I wish they would be more explicit. They also sell a lot of gluten-containing products. Frankly, I think they are overlooking a business opportunity to become a trusted source for the gluten-free community by not being more clear about gluten. Among Azure products I've purchased are "Walnuts, Baker's Pieces, Raw", "Cashews, Raw, Large White Pieces, Organic" and "Missouri Northern Pecan Grower Pecans Fancy Native, Raw, Halves". The walnuts and cashews were very good and the pecans were fabulous. For almonds, I've been buying Blue Diamond unsalted when they go on sale (mostly from Safeway). The salted ones are probably fine too but the flavored ones I avoid now that I am gluten-free. I also buy products including nuts from CostCo (cashews, shelled pistachios). Their nuts usually contain a "made in a facility that processes wheat" statement, which is scary. I've contacted customer service about various Kirkland products and they will usually give you a response <<for a specific lot>> whether it really was made in a wheat facility (sometimes yes sometimes no). For the "Kirkland Signature Fancy Whole Cashews, Unsalted, 40 oz" and "Kirkland Signature Shelled Pistachios, Roasted & Salted, 1.5 lbs", I got a "safe" answer and I ate them. I got an "unsafe" answer once for "Kirkland Signature Fancy Whole Cashews with Sea Salt, 2.5 lbs" and "Kirkland Signature Dry Roasted Macadamia Nuts, Salted, 1.5 lbs" and I don't look at these anymore. Again, these answers were given for specific lots only. They will accept an unopened return for cash if you find out you don't want it. Costco also sells "Kirkland Signature Super Extra-Large Peanuts, 2.5 lbs" that are labeled gluten free. My celiac kid eats them all the time. I pretty much only eat food that I prepare myself from scratch. My celiac symptoms are not that overt, so I can't say for certain I could identify a glutening. However, my antibody levels dropped 25 fold (into normal range) since my dx earlier this year. Hope this helps.

      Doterra literally has saved my life hands down.Nateral supplements that really are pure grade and does work organically with ones body. I had to stop all my nateral supplements to be a good puppet for medical so I can get the financial help that my body won't allow me to do more days than not these days, every day with menopause.....Not feeling well.Had to switch " medical team" because I was told I wasn't celiac though I am gluten-free since 1994! I am also positive HLA-DQ2. I think doctors down play it because on quest lab work it states " However 39% of the U.S  general population carry these HLA-DQ variants, as a consequence, the presence of HLA-DQ2 or  DQ8 or both variants is not perse diagnostic of celiac disease". Hintz the down playing of celiac disease......This needs to change because doctors seem to down playe it because when I showed the past 2nd and 3rd  doctors that I waisted my time on this year showed my that line and absolutely down played it.4th pcp this year.I live in Patterson California and would love for a few of us to go to mayors office and make this disease heard

      Back home after the scope.  Dr said as soon as he got in there it was clear signs of celiacs.  Must be a decent amount of damage.  I don’t remember the post procedure conversation as the anesthesia was still wearing off but that’s what my wife says anyway.  Still the biopsy results to come back but pretty definitive and now I get to learn to live gluten free
