Hi, this is my first time on the forum as well as my first year with glutenfreeitus as I call it. (celiac, jk) It is getting extremely hot and I have no school and I was wondering if you know of any sleepover and hot summer day foods. I am living off of fruitand meat and other stuff, none of it junk food except for the occasional hershey bar and swedish fish and my friends don't like it. please help my playdates!! :lol: O and if anyone has some good corndog recipes that are easy cuz I stink at cooking that would be great, too!! thanks in advance!!

LUV,

Lightningfoot of FireClan

Hi! I totally understand. This is a sample of what we snack on:

Cheetos

Nachos (Tostitos tortilla chips, Velveeta cheese and a little gluten free salsa - there are lots)

Lays Naturals Doritos

Lays Naturals Sea Salt Potato Chips

Gluten Free Pantry Brownies

Kinnickinnik Cupcakes

Haagendaz chocolate covered vanilla ice cream bars

P.S. Some here don't eat Lays products because they feel there could be a risk of cross contamination since Lays does not have production lines dedicated gluten free. However, we've never had a problem.

My favorite corn dog is Oscar Meyer hot dogs covered with Chebe bread mix. It tastes great. It was a recommendation from some genius on this forum. But someone just posted a few days ago about a gluten free corn dog they tasted and loved. I think it was called S'Better Farms, or something like that! Worth looking into.

Anyway, there are so many good gluten free snacks out there. Hope you enjoy your summer!

Hi: I have spent a lot of time contacting manufacturers about gluten free products and have kept all my findings. Kraft is one of the best--if you contact them they will send you a gluten free product list--they have a lot of great stuff that is gluten-free. I also tried the makers of chips etc :rolleyes: and Ruffles Rippled plain chips are my favorite--it's great to have munchies again :P I live in Canada and you could check out the Celiac Canada website as it list a bunch of gluten free products by manufacturer. Good Luck:)

I don't live in Canada, so please keep in mind that some of this stuff might not be available there. For sleepovers you could do Amy's rice crust pizza. Some on here have had problems with it, but others eat it regularly with no problems. I'm one of those who love it and eat it all the time with no problems. You could do popcorn too, some brands are gluten free, or you could just do air popped with fresh butter or margarine. Rice Krispy treats (w/ gluten free rice krispies) are always a hit. Pinwheels (Seltzer's sweet balogna wrapped around cream cheese), cheese cubes, veggies with Kraft ranch dressing for dipping, apples and peanut butter, gluten free cookies, gluten free crackers, Glutano crisp bread with peanut butter or chicken salad, rice cakes (peanut butter and honey is great on those), and nachos (corn tortilla chips with melted cheddar cheese) all make great snacks.

Are Cheetos gluten free?

Are Cheetos gluten free?

yes they are, but they are not produced on a dedicated line like the Lay's Stax are, so there is a small risk of cross contamination IF they don't remember to use stringent cleaning policies between batches. I personally have gotten ill from the, but I know a lot of people eat them.

I snack on lots of fruit, fruit leather, nachos, coconut macaroons, yogurt, popcorn, Enjoy Life cookies or cereal bars, and so on... hope that gives you some ideas.

I eat the baked cheetos (taste the same for me) and don't have a problem. Also try dill pickles wrapped in a slice of turkey or ham lunchmeat w/cream cheese spread on it. Sounds funny but it's good! Or when I don't have the cream cheese I just take a slice of turkey, a slice of regular kraft cheese, and wrap it around a pickle - my "sandwhich". Also try the turkey or ham and cream cheese wrapped around green onion - great little appetizer to take to a picnic.

cracker jacks and other caramel corn mixes (fiddle faddle, etc.) are gluten-free too

I have finally found someone else who makes pickle wraps! :D

There are so many gluten free junk foods. Did you get a copy of the delphi gluten free food list? If not someone here or I can send you a copy. Just PM your e-mail address.

      Ferritin levels.  And see what your hemoglobin looks like too, that will tell you if you are anemic?  You can have 'low normal' levels that will not be flagged by blood tests.  I had 'low normal' levels, my lab reading was. c12, just over what was considered normal, but I had small benign lesion on my tongue, and sometimes a sore mouth, and a consultant maxillofacial ordered an iron infusion for me as he felt my levels were too low and if he  raised them to 40, it would help.   Because you are not feeling 100% it might be worth looking at your levels, then discussing with your doctor if they are low normal.  But I stress, don't supplement iron without your levels being monitored, too much is dangerous.

      Hi Katht -  I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal  function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was very true for me. I am still elimination foods from my diet. One person suggested you keep a food diary and that is a good idea but it is probably best just to do an elimination diet. There are several ne and maybe one for celiacs. I used one for a while and started with plain rice and zucchini and then added back other foods to see if I reacted or not. That helped a great deal but what I did not realise that it would only very small amounts of some foods to cause inflammation in my intestine. Within the last few years I have stopped eating any trace amounts of hot peppers, corn and soy(mostly in supplements) and nuts, (the corn in Tylenol was giving me stomach aches and the nuts were causing foot pains). Starting an elimination diet with white rice is better than brown rice that has some natural toxins. In addition it is very important to drink sufficient plain water. You can find out how much to drink for your height and weight online. I do have difficulty drinking 48 ounces of water but just recently have found an electrolyte supplement that helps me stay well hydrated, Adding the water and electrolytes may reduce muscle cramps and gag spams you wrote about. . Also buy some anti-gluten enzyme capsules to take with meals. I use GliadinX advertised here. These are a lot of things to do at one time as they reflect my 20 years of experience. I hope you do what you can manage to do over time. Good luck and take care.

      Hi all !! Did anyone ever get prescribed methylprednisone steroids for inflammation of stomach and intestines?  Did it work ??  Thank you !!

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse.  But it is important not to stop the treatment.  Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency.   I didn't know what anxiety was until it hit me like a train several months before gastrointestinal issues began, so I can certainly relate.   Two books which helped me hugely were At Last A Life by Paul David (there is a website you can look up) and The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs by Dr Steve Llardi.  Although his book is aimed at people who have depression, following the principals he sets out was so helpful in lessening my anxiety.  Llardi suggests we need to focus on getting enough: - physical exercise - omega-3 fatty acids - natural sunlight exposure - restorative sleep - social connectedness - meaningful, engaging activity   ... and we should feel a lot better. That is not to stay you must stop taking medication for depression or anxiety if you have been prescribed it, but adopting the changes Dr Llardi sets out in the book should really help. Can I just ask two more questions:  1) you say that you are B12 deficient, did they test your iron levels too?  If not, you really ought to be checked for deficiency and, 2) did they check your thyroid function, as an overactive thyroid can be cause rapid heartbeat and a lot of coeliacs have thyroid issues?
