Rub it in, why don't cha? I just went to 2 stores that according to the website should have it & nada. I will have to go to WF.

Jestgar Rising Star

Dude! Even my Safeway carries it!! OK, I live in snob-city, but still, I think it should be becoming more common.

today my math teacher abbreviated 'want to find' as WTF. All the little kids laughed.

I live in an area where people don't think twice about spending $7 for a pint of ice cream. So where is it?????

I left a note for the manager at one store. Will report back when the quarry has been sighted and apprehended.

How to make lemonade:

Take an accidentally-glutened-by-a-friend state, with headaches, body aches, insomnia, bad mood;

Combine with a trip over the hill for grocery shopping, running errands for Dh (returning something he bought by mistrake); and shopping for layers of clothing for upcoming cold morns in too-warm changing rooms;

Add inability to read Dh's handwriting on shopping list or comprehend what he was trying to say: "5mgs chillis x3" (purchase some greenred chillis on sale)

Combine with misreading his request for 3 cans of Staggs chilli which were not purchased :( .

Scrutinize pantry and find lectins all over the place - cans of tomatoes, kidney beans, canellini which need to be consumed (but not by me)

Get out slow cooker

Brown ground beef, onions, celery and place in slow cooker

Add two cans of kidney beans, 1 can cannellini beans, 1 can tomato puree, 1 can Italian tomatoes pureed, two chopped red chillis :D , chilli spice and various assorted other things

Cook on low for 8 hours. Thicken with cornstarch.

Voila! lemonade! :lol: Enough lemonade to quench (or inspire B) ) a great thirst.

Holy crap.. . . . .....was just sitting here posting, and happened to glance over at the big framed picture I have on the wall beside me. It is perfectly positioned so that in the reflection of the glass I could suddenly see the substantive ROLL that now sits around my midsection when I sit forward, right through my T shirt and shorts, oh dear gaaaaaawwwwwwd. . . . ..... :angry:

Actually, this was my face at first: :blink:

You'll need to do something about that right away. There must be a matte picture you could put there instead.

      Very good pizzeria with small dining room in back of the restaurant. The owner's daughter has celiac & they have gluten free pizza & a gluten free menu. Some items from the regular menu can be made gluten free also. They have a lunch menu which we ordered from & my chicken with spinach & mozzarella over gluten-free penne was delicious. They also have Tuesday night pasta specials & Thursday night chicken pasta specials. We plan on going back for dinner soon.

      @Aretaeus Cappadocia and @Russ H thank you both for your helpful advice and information. I haven't seen a GI in years. They never helped me aside from my inital diagnosis. All other help has come from my own research, which is why I came here. I will be even more careful in the future. 
    • Aretaeus Cappadocia
      @nancydrewandtheceliacclue, you are welcome. After looking at this thread again, I would like to suggest that some of the other comments from @Russ H are worth following up on. The bird-bread may or may not be contributing to what you are experiencing, but it seems unlikely to be the whole story. If you have access to decent healthcare, I would write down your experiences and questions in outline form and bring this to your Dr. I suggest writing it down so you don't get distracted from telling the Dr everything you want to say while you have their attention.
    • Aretaeus Cappadocia
      @Russ H, I partly agree and partly disagree with you. After looking at it again, I would say that the slick graphic I posted overestimates the risk. Your math is solid, although I find estimates of gluten in white bread at 10-12% rather than the 8% you use. Somewhat contradicting what I wrote before, I agree with you that it would be difficult to ingest 10 mg from flinging bread.  However, I would still suggest that @nancydrewandtheceliacclue take precautions against exposure in this activity. I'm not an expert, I could easily be wrong, but if someone is experiencing symptoms and has a known exposure route, it's possible that they are susceptible to less than 10 mg / day, or it is possible that there is/are other undetected sources of exposure that together with this one are causing problems. At any rate, I would want to eliminate any exposure until symptoms are under control before I started testing the safety of potentially risky activities. Here is another representation of what 10 mg of bread would look like. https://www.glutenfreewatchdog.org/news/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/10mgGlutenCrumbsJules.jpg Full article that image came from: https://www.glutenfreewatchdog.org/news/what-does-10-mg-of-gluten-look-like/
    • nancydrewandtheceliacclue
      @Aretaeus Cappadocia thank you for your reply and the link, that is very helpful to get a visual of just how small of an amount can cause a reaction. I know I am not consuming gluten or coming into contact with gluten from any other source. I will stop touching/tossing bread outside! My diet has not changed, and I do not have reactions to the things I am currently eating, which are few in number. My auto immune reaction just seems so severe. The abdominal pain is extreme. It takes a lot out of me. I guess I will be this way for the rest of my life if I ever happen to come into contact with gluten? I appreciate the help.
