I emailed Kraft today to ask about buying just the powdered cheese sauce mix. I guess it's sold in stores in some areas, just not near me. Here was their answer.

If you have a Wal-mart in your area, they carry it there. I haven't found a Walmart yet that doesn't stock it. It's very hard to find it in the store though.

You know those big cannister thingys - green with Parmesan cheese? Try looking for a big orange one with Kraft Cracker Barrel cheese logo on it. Our grocery started stocking them, they're all over the place and my kids say it's just like the Kraft Dinner stuff.

I have to leave the kitchen whenever KD or KD cheese is around. The smell... bleah!

It's not that I hadn't checked, but they even said in their response that they don't have a store that sells it in my area. I've never ever seen it sold like that. It's been one of my "wishful thinking" ideas for years. :rolleyes: I figured if it's not sold everywhere there must be other people who want it but can't get it. I even tried to find a way to buy it online, but I couldn't find any. If you do have it near you I'm jealous. The box meals were on sale here last week for 50 cents so I bought a bunch of those and gave the noodles away. :lol:

The one my kids say tastes like KD cheese is the orange one on the bottom.

Yep. That's what I was hoping for. I wasn't able to find that on the US website and I've never seen it in real life, though. I might check a Walmart near me, but I think it'd be easier to just have them send it right to my house. It's cool that they let people order like that. I had asked Frito Lay if I could order a flavor of Fritos that they don't sell in my area once, but they're not willing to do that.

I've never seen the orange shaker of cheese that was on that website. The one I get is a very slim canister. It's blue and looks just like the Kraft Mac & Cheese boxes. It's the same cheese that comes in the pouches in the mac & cheese. It tastes great with Tinkyada pasta. At Wal-Mart, we find this cheese in the same area as Velveeta. It's hard to find, but well worth the search. Yum.

      iron digestibility

      @glucel, There's a strong correlation between thiamine deficiency, hypoxia, and insomnia. Thiamine is needed to help red blood cells carry oxygen. In thiamine deficiency, hypoxia (lack of oxygen in tissues) occurs, and this can result in insomnia. Hypoxia causes systemic inflammation, increases inflammatory markers, and is associated with cardiovascular...

      New Research Reveals How Antibody Genes May Shape the Immune Response in Celiac Disease

      Thanks. Not a big thing, particularly because most likely it is "true" but not yet demonstrated.

      Thanks to everybody for your help. I reread the dr's notes from the biopsy procedure and it seems I had worse than atrofied villi. It was termed flattened mucosa. So while iron ferratin levels are normal my bet is, as kitty alluded to, iron not getting into cells. I have dr appointment next mo but don't hold out a lot of hope, There is strong correlation...

      New Research Reveals How Antibody Genes May Shape the Immune Response in Celiac Disease

      Thanks for the thoughtful comment. You are right that the study’s main conclusion was cautious: the researchers found that inherited antibody-gene variants significantly shape the naïve B-cell receptor repertoire, including usage of some gene segments involved in celiac-related antibody responses, but they did not find strong evidence that polymorphisms in...

      Osteoporosis: Does the body start rebuilding bones after starting a gluten-free diet?

      I have osteoporosis and have crushed three vertebrae. I supplement with Lysine, Tryptophan, threonine, calcium, Boron, Vitamins D, A, and K, and the B vitamins (folate, B12, and Thiamine B1 especially for bone health). I tried Fosomax, but it tore up my insides. I prefer the supplements. I feel better and my bones feel stronger. References...

      iron digestibility

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @glucel,  There's a strong correlation between thiamine deficiency, hypoxia, and insomnia.  Thiamine is needed to help red blood cells carry oxygen.  In thiamine deficiency, hypoxia (lack of oxygen in tissues) occurs, and this can result in insomnia. Hypoxia causes systemic inflammation, increases inflammatory markers, and is associated with cardiovascular events.  Curiously, thiamine deficiency is correlated with excessive daytime sleepiness and oversleeping.   I found a combination of Tryptophan, Pyridoxine B 6, magnesium, and L-theanine works very well for inducing sleep.  Sometimes, I add Passion Flower Extract and/or Sweet Melissa.  There's no side effects the next morning with Passion Flower, it just induces sleepiness.  Sweet Melissa is groovy, and has anti-inflammatory effects on the digestive system.   I prefer to take 250 mg Benfotiamine and 100 mg Thiamine TTFD in the mornings and another dose of Benfotiamine at lunch.  I try not to take any thiamine after four p.m. because it keeps my brain so energized and wanting to think... Oh, I do take a combination of another form of thiamine (sulbutiamine), Pyridoxine and Cobalamine for a pain reliever sometimes, but I can sleep after taking that.  But thiamine does help regulate circadian rhythm.   Make sure you're getting Omega Three fats! They'll help you satisfy that late night carb craving with fewer carbs.  Flaxseed oil, olive oil, sunflower seed oil.  Nuts and nut butters, like walnuts and cashews, are good, too, if you can tolerate them.    Try taking the 100mg thiamine HCl before your aerobics and see if there's a difference.  Sweet dreams!

      Thanks to everybody for your help. I reread the dr's notes from the biopsy procedure and it seems I had worse than atrofied villi. It was termed flattened mucosa. So while iron ferratin levels are normal my bet is, as kitty alluded to, iron not getting into cells. I have dr appointment next mo but don't hold out a lot of hope, There is strong correlation of low red blood cells and insomnia so at least I finally solved that one after few yrs of being mislead. I intend to take stop taking 100 mg b1 at noon time and start 150 mg benfotiamin. I may or may not add the the 100 mg b1evening meal. BTW, last night had 1/3 lb beef. potato then 2 bowls cereal and an apple later in the eve. I generally do my areobics before supper so maybe that contributes to the hunger.

      Coeliac And Cardio Vascular Disease

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Aileen Cregan, I was put on high blood pressure medication, too. But I was able to correct my high blood pressure by supplementing with Thiamine Vitamin B 1.  I am no longer on high blood pressure medication.  I feel much better without the medication. I continue to supplement Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine.   The particular high blood pressure medication I took was Norvasc (amlodipine), which causes thiamine deficiency by blocking thiamine transporters so that thiamine cannot enter cells.  Benfotiamine can get into cells by merging with the cell membrane, thus bypassing nonfunctional thiamine transporters.   Indapamide also blocks thiamine transporters! The use of this type of medications that block thiamine precipitated Wernickes Encephalopathy.  My doctors did not recognize the connection to Thiamine deficiency.  I nearly died.   Talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing with Benfotiamine, a fat soluble form of thiamine that bypasses thiamine transporters.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity Assay to check your thiamine levels asap.  Routine blood tests for thiamine are not an accurate measure of  thiamine in the body.   Absorption of essential vitamins like Thiamine is altered in Celiac Disease due to damaged villi, inflammation and dysbiosis.  The Gluten Free diet can be lacking in vitamins and minerals.  Discuss supplementing with all the eight B vitamins,  the four fat soluble vitamins and necessary minerals. Please keep us posted on your progress!
