Nuts At The Airport

Hi everyone,

I travel fairly often and there's never much I can eat at the airport. As such, I frequently picked up a bag of peanuts or cashews in the airport stores just to have something to munch on.

I went to buy some nuts on a recent trip and reread the ingredients. The most common brand of nuts sold in airports seems to be Snak Club. Well, Snak Club has a new allergy statement on it's packages that says that all of their nuts are made on shared equipment with wheat, soy, etc.

I'm bummed because I could always grab these if desperate, but also because I've probably been getting contaminated for a long time by eating these damn nuts. DOH.

So, bring your own nuts to the airport from now on.

Thanks for the head's-up. It's cheaper to bring your own, too! But there goes another "emergency-nosh".

I just did my first travelling since going gluten-free.

How frustrating! My gate was directly across from a Cinnabon. YUM. Well I was starving so I went over there to buy some fruit. I'm so strong!!

Well, the fruit was like $1.50 MORE than the gigantic Cinnabon. AND it was going bad.

I ended up eating fries at McDonald's in Detroit on both trips. I hate fast food, but I had no problems either time.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
