I was wanting to find out if anybody had tried any of these food-tek products. They look interesting. They are mixes that you mix up and then cook in the microwave. Some look pretty wierd, but some look ok to try out. I'm curious about the taste.............soooooo fill me in if you have tried them!!

Well don't be mad at me if you don't like them, but I think they're sooooo good!! The bread is nice and spongey like regular (gluten) bread! I really recommend the cake too. Yum yum! I too was skeptical, but it's GOOD! :P

I have tried the choco cake and the brownies...let me tell you, when ur sweet tooth kicks in, these are the best things.... Pop them in the microwave for a minute and POOF they are done! They are really convienent because I keep a bag at my bf house, and when i get that craving, it makes both of our lives easier... But i do not recomment the sugar cookies...blah.

You don't know what you are missing if you don't place an order. All the cakes, bread and cornbread are awesome! My kids love them and they are so quick and easy. I can't say enough good things about them. Actually saw them do a demo, by one of the owners, at a support group meeting and tasted first hand and have been hooked ever since.

I was thinking that they would be good for those "cravings" so you guys have totally convinced me for that and since everybody says they are good I am going to have to try to get ahold of some :) Thanks!

I had no clue those even existed. I know what I am adding to my shopping list this week.

Anyone have to order online (there isn't a store that carries them here) what's the turn around?

they had a booth at the canadian celiac convention, and they had two dairy-free choices... one they were making (it was the cornbread). it was okay, but frankly, homemade cornbread is SO much better.

I got my food-tek food in the mail today. I was SOOO excited. I baked myself a chocolate cake and frosted it with yummy chocolate frosting. It was very good! I'm impressed.

I got to looking at their website today and they are the folks who make the stuff that bakes in easy bake ovens for kids. So I wrote to the man that I had written to before and asked if he has considered making a gluten free mix for the easy bake ovens. I'm excited to see what he has to say back.

Wouldn't that be totally awesome if your kiddoes with celiac could have an easy bake oven too!! I know that was one of my favorite toys when I was a kid!

I decided to try out the white bread mix. I added water, mixed until lumps were gone and poured the batter into the two cute little bread shaped molds. :P Microwaved until it was done.

Then I decided that I would make french toast out of this bread. It turned out super!! Mixed an egg with some milk and cinnamon and fryed in a pan. YUM!! I'll save the leftovers to warm in the toaster oven for breakfast tomorrow morning.

I have had fun making these little mixes today!!

Jessica,

Yay! I'm glad you enjoyed them as much as I did! I always hesitate to "recommend" gluten-free products, as I think my definition of "tastes good" has changed the longer I've been gluten-free!!! :lol:

EASY BAKE OVEN KITS ARE COMING

I got this e-mail from Food-Tek today...........how exciting!!

Hi Jessica:

I've been reading your posts to the group and to Celiac.com. It's nice to know we have another fan!

We have developed and manufactured items for Easy-Bake (and a number of other "food-toys") for over 15 years. Currently, we putting the finishing touches on a line we're calling "Quick-Bake Kids" - gluten-free mixes formulated and packaged for use in an Easy-Bake/toy oven. We'll be rolling out cookie, cake, and brownie mixes in the next 4-6 weeks.

Stay tuned, and thanks again for your enthusiasm!

Regards,

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a...

Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/
