gluten-free Stampede Breakfast Yesterday

[2Boys4Me]

Yesterday morning we took Ty to the Calgary Celiac Association Stampede Breakfast. We had gluten-free/lactose free pancakes, Spolumbo sausages and juice. At the breakfast was a guy serving up samples of gluten-free pizza. I got the impression it was a pretty new company "Judy G Gluten Free". They sell little pizzas about 9" or 10" in three flavours. Black Forest Ham & Pineapple, Pepperoni & Green Pepper and something else with the word Mediterranean in the title. They also sell a box of two shells w/o toppings so you can add your own. I can't remember all the ingredients, but I think the shells were dairy and soy free. They are available at a few health food stores in Calgary. Amaranth, both Community Natural Health food stores and I can't remember where else.

My non-gluten-free husband, who loves pizza said it was "all right". Ty didn't try any. He also only ate half the pancakes, but that's because pancakes are "disgusting" not because they didn't taste good. They were really good. They were made from the Kinnikinnick mix.

I can't find the Judy G website. I don't have the business card with me. The website just links you to an email address for inquiries anyway. The guy said they'd be in the freezer section of the HFS.

Thanks for the info! I'll have to go to Amaranth and find them. I hope the shells are dairy free too!

The website is Open Original Shared Link the website only links you to her email, but it's worth a shot to email for dairy info rather than drive all the way to the store to be disappointed. The email is: judy@judygfoods.com

Good luck, I hope you'll be able to eat it.

I couldn't go to said breakfast because I slipped in Zellers on Friday and have sprained my ankle, wrist, tore adductor, hamstring muscles, bruised my ribs and threw my whole back out.

I knew Spolumbo's are gluten-free. I missed the Amaranth breakfast they had that in June.

oh no That must have been so painful.

[Rusla]

It still is, not only that but I have lost approximately $2000. in wages, another $2000. for an article I was to supply to a magazine on what Celiac's have to eat at the Stampede grounds (which is probably still nothing) and that was with pictures and I had a death in the family also. If I had only missed one day of work Zellers would have not been bothered again by me. But their floor was so slippery and very shiny.

Do you think these will be available in SK?

Spolumbo's is a restaurant/ store only in Calgary that I know of.

Ouch, Rusla! That sounds painful Hope you feel better soon--and drop by here more often

[2Boys4Me]

Ouch! I hope you feel better soon. Too bad about the Stampede article. I would have loved to read that. When we went, we took popcorn and apples. We were only there from 6pm until 10:30, but they did have some fudge where the workers were knowledgeable. We asked what the fudge was made from and they said do you have allergies. My husband said, "He can't have wheat." I said, "He's celiac, he can't have wheat, rye, oats or barley." The one gal pointed and said okay, he can have any of these and then an older lady piped up and said he can have them all except the Oreo. She knew Oreos were made from wheat flour.

My one friend said we should go to the breakfast on kids day, it's free. I said what will Ty eat. He said, surely they'll have gluten-free pancakes there. I laughed at him.

[Rusla]

Well, I have next year for the article, I guess. I lost a lot because of their overly waxed floors.

I cannot believe your friend thought they would have anything gluten-free for the breakfasts at the grounds. It is hard enough to find gluten-free in stores and restaurants.

I still hurt and my doctor says it will be awhile but I have to go back to work Thursday and that is 50 stairs to climb, it will be a tough day.
