Hello all --

I'm on Day 3 of a gluten free life!! So far, so good. Spent some $$ at the store the other day for a whole new pantry of food --- and thanks to suggestions here & from my sister (celiac for 2+ years) I had an excellent dinner & breakfast!

Had Tinkyada pasta - delish! - mixed it with tomato sauce & sauteed onions, squash & zuccini, YUM, tastes like normal pasta.

Then for breakfast I had the Kinnik sesame bagel - another YUM.

Thanks all... I'm off to a good start!

I love Kinickkinick Pancake and waffle mix I even have my husband eating them, beats mixing up

two dif. bowls and fry pans. I also like their english muffins I split mine in threes. I also split the

hamburger rolls in three's. Kinickkinick bread and bun mix is really good just have to mix it with

milk and water. The first day I tried the bun mix I made 5 rolls I ate the first one with butter then

another, and another, my husband asked me if I was going to eat all and I said I might they were

so good and so easy to make< I also like the kinickkinick sandwich bread for sandwiches and their

raisen bread is great toasted. I order on line and when I get my order I put it right in the freezer. We

do not have a store near us with Gluten Free Food, the closest one takes us over an hour to get to and

then they are out of the bread I want. I also order my cereal Enviro-Kids Peanut Butter Cereal and

The Enviro-Kids Bars. on line I can get Zone Bars at Wal-Mart The Strawberry and the Chocolate Graham are the only ones gluten free. My problem is I stay hungry all the time. Does anyone else have this problem?

We LOVE Tinky pasta in our home!! But, not for spaghetti - we use the Barilla Corn Spaghetti - and it's Yum-O!!

The Kinn... Maple Donuts are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO yummy. And, I'm not even a donut lover. As far as their muffins go... who in the world would even KNOW they were gluten-free?? =) =) They are THAT good! I've had the chocolate chip and the carrot.... MmMmmmmMMM!!!

My local A&P supermarket stocks them for me. They have a whole section of gluten-free stuff in the frozen section.

I have discovered a magic trick regarding the engligh muffins. You keep them frozen, and when you want want, take it out, put it in the microwave for 50 seconds. Take it out, turn it over, and let it sit for 1 - 2 minutes. Then slice it in half, toast it, put whatever you want on it (I do ham and cheese), then microwave it again for 10 seconds.

Presto! It's magic! The best english muffin you have ever tasted, even beats the gluten crap!

I'm lucky enough to have a grocery store (Omni Foods Market) about 5 minutes from me which carries the Kinnick brand... and, regarding the muffins -- YUM, delish. Put one in the microwave for 30 seconds & ate warm... mmm, now I'm hungry.

I'm thinking about ordering the Kinnick Bagels (and probably the donuts - they sound great!) online - and just keeping in the freezer. Anyone else do that? Is there a significant cost difference?

A new find (you all probably knew about this) -- LaraBars! Especially Apple Pie! Just ordered a case - high in protein & totally natural, an excellent treat.

Happy Friday!

(will be on the lookout for Barilla corn spaghetti too - thanks!)

I found the Barilla Corn Spaghetti at a Hy-Vee Grocery Store. They are in the Midwest, but I'm not sure where else.

I buy most of my Kinnikinnick stuff at Wild Oats, but they don't stock the Maple Donuts, so I special order those once in a while. =)

I just bought the chocolate iced doughnuts (yum!) and the english muffins (haven't tried yet). Now I can't wait to get home and have an english muffin!

When you order from Kinnikinnick, doyou order straight from them or some other site? I know they have to be frozen, so I guess that is an issue with shipping?

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      My question I have proposed to the FDA through their website is why Prescription and OTC drug manufacturers are not required to list what binding ingredients were used to bine the drug?

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
