Something Martha Steward Did

Recommended Posts

bluejeangirl Contributor

I just wanted to mention last week I was watching Martha Steward and she was demonstrating how to clean your kitchen and appliances. When she came to the coffee grinder she showed how you just put a slice of bread in it and run it for a few seconds and it cleans the inside by sort of wiping it clean. So warning now you can't just go over to the neighbors for coffee thinking your safe.

I sometimes feel like I'm nosey because I have to ask so many questions. :P

And we wonder where our mystery glutenings come from .... :blink: ... people who use bread to clean their kitchen with!!

My BIL babysat our kids last weekend ... when I opened the freezer yesterday, there's a frozen pizza in there!! Yikes, time to turn the self-cleaner on in the oven and do a scrub down around here ... no telling where there are crumbs!

Can somebody give her a jolt on her ankle bracelet? :P

I bet she probably made a special loaf of bread to clean the cooffee grinder. :D

OMG I had completely forgotten about the Chickenman show. It was on Detroit rock stations in the morning when I walked to school in the mid 60's. Is that the one you are referring to?

Richard love the new "do". I found the pensive stare riveting. :lol:

We need to mail Martha and tell her she has inspired a new expression, "this is NOT a good thing".

I am so glad someone else has now seen the cross contamintion coffee grinder cleaning advice.

Random thought here (what else :rolleyes: )

I was just imagining Martha on Iron Chef...I can see her futzing around with her apron telling the story of the origins of the great pagan feast she is about to prepare - and then time is up. She has to be escorted from the stage because she attempts to assault Alton Brown with the "mystery ingredient". She ends up back in prison because the assault conviction violates the the terms of her probation...we can dream can't we? :P

oh dear gaaaaawd.....someone flog that chickenman with a bread-cleansed coffee grinder :P

I beg your pardon, but please note the beard. Said "chicken" is actually a turkey. (in honor of TURKEY day - I'm not quite as random as you might think :P ) Flog ON!

BTW - Who actually cleans their coffee grinder anyway?

mommida Enthusiast

Who cleans their coffee grinders? Obviously Martha Stewart and Martha wannabes do. This must be stopped! Women are starting to run amok trying to turn themselves into perfect hostesses. What th *&!

That's the one! Believe it or not, in hubby's record collection we have an LP of Chickenman ... the first episode where he becomes Chickenman! It's hysterical. :lol::lol:

Richard, chicken, turkey ... hard to tell the difference when a grown man is dressed as poultry.

since you brought up alton brown, he's the one that suggested you should clean out your meat grinder with, you guessed it, bread! I guess I should just use gluten-free bread?!?!

now, really, I'd LOVE to see Alton do an eposode on gluten-free cooking and the chemistry behind our alternative starches an the advantages of guar gum vs xantham.

NOOOOOO, Not Alton too! :blink::(

Some of have emailed GOOD EATS and asked for just such a show.

Have at it Open Original Shared Link

I can't believe Alton would do such a thing :unsure:

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: you guys are too funny.

I did watch Altons show earlier this week on how to make the perfect gravey. He says the only way is with FLOUR cough cough. I guess some of the vegetable sources make you gravey clear and not as appealing.

Well Alton never is sitting on the toilee for 2 hrs. (we can be so rude)

Perhaps he IS, but hasn't figured out WHY yet...

      Imemsm, Most of us have experienced discontinued, not currently available or products that suddenly become seasonal.   My biggest fear about relocating from Maryland to Florida 5 years ago, was being able to find gluten-free foods that fit my restricted diet.  I soon found out that the Win Dixie and Publix supper markets actually has 99% of their gluten-free foods tagged, next to the price.  The gluten-free tags opened up a  lot of foods that aren't actually marked gluten-free by the manufacture.  Now I only need to check for my other dietary restrictions.  Where my son lives in New Hartford, New York there's a Hannaford Supermarket that also has a gluten-free tag next to the price tag.  Hopefully you can locate a Supermarket within a reasonable travel distance that you can learn what foods to check out at a Supermarket close to you.  I have dermatitis herpetiformis too and I'm very sensitive to gluten and the three stores I named were very gluten-free friendly.  Good Luck

      Okay well the info about TTG-A actually makes a lot of sense and I wish the PA had explained that to me. But yes, I would assume I would have intestinal damage from eating a lot of gluten for 32 years while having all these symptoms. As far as avoiding gluten foods - I was definitely not doing that. Bread, pasta, quesadillas (with flour tortillas) and crackers are my 4 favorite foods and I ate at least one of those things multiple times a day e.g. breakfast with eggs and toast, a cheese quesadilla for lunch, and pasta for dinner, and crackers and cheese as a before bed snack. I'm not even kidding.  I'm not really big on sugar, so I don't really do sweets. I don't have any of those conditions.  I am not sure if I have the genes or not. When the geneticist did my genetic testing for EDS this year, I didn't think to ask for him to request the celiac genes so they didn't test for them, unfortunately.  I guess another expectation I had is  that if gluten was the issue, the gluten-free diet would make me feel better, and I'm 3 months in and that hasn't been the case. I am being very careful and reading every label because I didn't want to screw this up and have to do gluten-free for longer than necessary if I end up not having celiac. I'm literally checking everything, even tea and anything else prepacked like caramel dip. Honestly its making me anxious 😅

      So you're saying that you think you should have severe intestinal damage since you've had the symptoms so long?   DGP IgG antibodies are produced in response to a partial gluten molecule.  This is different than what tissue transglutaminase antibodies are  produced in response to.   TTg IgA antibodies are produced in the intestines in response to gluten.  The tTg IgA antibodies attack our own cells because a structural component in our cell membranes resembles a part of gluten.  There's a correlation between the level of intestinal damage with the level of tTg antibodies produced.  You are not producing a high number of tTg IgA antibodies, so your level of tissue damage in your intestines is not very bad.  Be thankful.   There may be reasons why you are not producing a high quantity of tTg IgA antibodies.  Consuming ten grams or more of gluten a day for two weeks to two months before blood tests are done is required to get sufficient antibody production and damage to the intestines.  Some undiagnosed people tend to subconsciously avoid lots of gluten.  Cookies and cakes do not contain as much gluten as artisan breads and thick chewy pizza crust.  Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can affect IgA antibody production as well.   Do you carry genes for Celiac?  They frequently go along with EDS.

      I was tested for celiac at the same time, so I wasn't taking naltrexone yet. I say that, because I don't. The endoscopy showed some mild inflammation but was inconclusive as to celiac disease. They took several biopsies and that's all that was shown. I was not given a Marsh score.
    • knitty kitty
      Food and environmental allergies involve IgE antibodies.  IgE antibodies provoke histamine release from mast cells.   Celiac disease is not always visible to the naked eye during endoscopy.  Much of the damage is microscopic and patchy or out of reach of the scope.  Did they take any biopsies of your small intestine for a pathologist to examine?  Were you given a Marsh score? Why do you say you "don't have intestinal damage to correlate with lifelong undiagnosed celiac disease"?   Just curious.
