Now I've got to admit that i heard the Altoid "legend" prior to getting here, but the way I heard it, the parties involved had exchanged responsibilities... :ph34r:

Now who's looking for a tin?

Oh hey, look at the time, I gotta run!

Seems only fair ...

Am I the only one that has heard this version of the story?

...as a matter of fact I think it was the wife who shared the "legend" with me...

BINGO!! I explained the Altoids ummmm Legend . . . yeah, that's it . . . . legend . . . . to my husband, as well.

And yes, you're right, it's NOT just the men who think about it -- but you would need to consult our local expert, Karen, with regard to the particulars. . . . . . That's my story and I'm stickin' to it.

...see my earlier post...I've only heard my wife's version of the "legend", it seems she might have gotten the story wrong or perhaps twisted some of the facts <_< ...So I'll be in the front row for the lecture from the authority (if anybody asks, I was in the garage changing the muffler bearings) :ph34r:

In the words of my favorite Wizard of Oz character, the Cowardly Lion: "Ain't it the truth . . . . Ain't it the truth."

Triticus Toxicum: Know that the reason you want a front row seat when the "Goddess of Altoids" lectures is so that your wife MAY not have clued you in to ALL of the particulars, eh? (Sound Canadian, don't I?? Yeah, right!)

Also . . . . I DO NOT recommend the cinnamon ones. To ANYONE. 'nuff said.

Okay, given that I have eye difficulties from this gluten, I have to tell this: there was a large advertisement for Gluten Free Cheesecakes next to the frame of my post. Because cheesecakes didn't fit on one line, the "es" was on a line below. It messed with my eyes, and I saw "Gluten Fried Cheesecakes" . . . I thought -- what in the H*ll is Scott letting something like that advertise on this site!!!!!

Well, just so you know, the lecture is not an "inter-active" one. No demonstrations!

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing...

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
