Snacks

Nicole will be starting pre-k in a few weeks. Does anyone have any ideas about which snacks like for school are gluten free that you can purchase in the store. Maybe a list so I can give her teacher I know about the ingredients I mean like a list of snack already made would be great. Because the teacher does the snack shopping. Also there is 1 other child in her class that is partial gluten free,So that helps a bit. Also there are no other children in the school that have celiac. How bizarre.

Thanks

Celina

As we all know everything gluten-free is pricey, so ar ethese but my 3.5 yr old LOVES them..*so do I* they are Sooooooooo good.

Kozy Shack chocolate pudding, this is the one my daughter will eat. they also make jello,tapiocia,rice pudding and rice with cinn & raisins.

If there are not sut or sesame allergies in the class envirokids has a fruit crispy type bar.

I also just got some banana chips from Wild Oats that Ryan seems to like well. Fruit cups (you can get those at any grocery store), rice or corn cakes (double-check for glutens), fruit (like the pp said), baby carrots, celery.

Rice crackers, many grocery store chains carry them

Kraft string cheese

Jell-O brand pudding cups

Fruit cups

Raisins

Dried Fruits

Pop Secret Popcorn

Fresh fruits

Fresh vegetables

Dora stars cereal

Hormel pepperoni and cracker barrel cheese

Perhaps she would allow you and the other family to contribute some specialty foods for all of the children like gluten free pretzels, gluten free crackers, etc...

If she can do her shopping at Wal-mart, their GV brand labels gluten free. It would make the whole process a lot easier for her.

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies. Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
