I had an uncle who was a farmer a long time ago when I was a kid. If you add wheat or oats or some non- meat filler to sausage, it's considered cheap and not of a good quality.

They need all that wheat to sop up all the fat :o I bought some from an independent butcher who uses rice flour, but he still put all the fat in so they had a LOT of rice flour!! :unsure: Very hard to get a decent chicken sausage here. I tried making my own turkey sausage patties but they had made a mess mousse out of the turkey :rolleyes:

My grandma used to teach in a 1 room school in Iowa. She would stay with different families for a month at a time. She loved to go to one house that made the best sausage. Instead of just putting the junk bits of the pig in like most people, they put the whole pig into the grinder ( not bones). Very high quality and delicious. She lived to 100 eating like that!

I only had two tiny glasses of wine then switched to water. Whatever allergens I was consuming made it difficult to breath and I didn't want to make that worse with alcohol. Not sure what else was in the sausages. Peach maybe (allergic to peaches).

Just bought gluten-free sausages for when my son comes home. Now I don't think I'll chance them. I'm so sensitive to everything. Any of you ever get depressed when glutened? I've been feeling depressed lately and I hate it! I'm a pretty upbeat person but have been waking up depressed almost daily.

We have a company here that makes lovely chicken and apple sausages. Apparently, Americans like different flavors in their sausages. Peaches get used a lot in sauces and salsa, too. I did not know a peach and a peanut were cousins.

Just used some of my overcooked potatoes from the other night to make potato pancakes or " Irish Latkes". Yummmmm! Have been wondering if you could do that with overcooked, mushy rice?

I make a rice omelette for breakfast frequently and it's delicious.

They served these last night, on the end of a stick so people ate them like lollipops.

Now that sound phallic (tee-hee) time to get my mind out of the gutter. This thread is certainly good for what ails you! Thanks to you all (and mostly Kareng for bringing me here and walking and pfeeding me).

..looked 'em up! They look good!! (but evil ph34r.gif)

Kinda reminds me of 'bubble & squeak'.

laugh.gif Bangers are just sausages - we don't really have 'breakfast' sausages, they're all the same (except chipolatas blink.gif ... which are more like 'cocktail' sausages)

Anyhoo, yer choice of any banger in the UK that is gluten-free is limited dry.gif

6.22pm & I have my pj's on ph34r.gif

Nikki,

Where do you live? When we were first coming up to our new house we frequented an Irish Diner and I LOVED the bangers. I never connected them to the fact that I suffered the big D within a half hour. Now my husband and son go there without me as everything is cooked on the same grill and there's no way for me not to be glutened. Boy do I ever miss them!

Another example of fine, creative British phrasing. .. . . we come up with no such great names o'er here. .. . .. .BUT - - why is this dish called bubble and squeak? Does it actually bubble, and perhaps squeak against yer teeth when you chew it? :huh:

Matters not, as it is a terrific name... . B)

Hi, Jyaghnutt! :) Are you a Russell Brandian?

First time I ever saw him was in a movie . . . don't recall which one . . . and I thought . . . :huh: . . . WIH was THAT?? I thought it was a normal actor playing an odd character. Now I know it was an odd actor playing a normal character. Now that I've seen additional movies and interviews and such, I still think he's odd . . . but he-larry-us.

Youse guys need to come to my house for a weenie roast and smore-a-thon . . . the patio and fire pit were officially opened for business last night.

We watch it and can't imagine who's going to replace him. Have you seen the British version? Ricky Gervais is another favorite of mine. He's making a fortune on the residuals of both versions of the office.

Back to Russell brand. I do find him hot but have to admit to a very long lived crush on Robert Downey Jr. My son finds it gross.

True dat--it's sort of a tradition here :P

Got home a little while ago from South Jersey--that 2 hour drive seems to go faster each time :D Just put a pizza in the oven--Peter, I used GFP French Bread mix for the first time as a pizza crust. 2 questions--do youse freeze the crusts shaped? and how thick do you spread the batter in the pizza pan? I used a spatula and just winged it but it's taking longer than the 15 minutes the instructions said to bake it. I might have used too much :unsure: oh--3 questions--how many crusts do you get per box?

I'm hoping to eat it in a few minutes whilst watching Russell on LKL. :DB)

Had me pizza all set and everything :angry:

But OMGawd....this was THE best pizza I've had gluten-free. The phunny thing is that I've been making the GFP bread regularly all this time and never used it fer pizza. I've been shulmping all the ingredients out and making a so-so crust from scratch--and all this time the perfect one has been hiding in my cupboard! :o:lol:

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it. Gluten is the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part. Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6. Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline, Q10, Selenium, D and DHEA.     Choline supplemented as phosphatidylcholine decreases fasting and postmethionine-loading plasma homocysteine concentrations in healthy men +

Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind
