Have you noticed a problem with Altoids supplies in your part of the country. I am in Alberta and I haven't seen Altoids at any store for about one month. I'm really concerned because I love them.

I know, it's dangerous territory to be entering, but I'm serious. I can't find them anywhere.

LMAO! :lol:

Nope, I don't have a problem finding them - I get them at the checkout counter at A&P...

Although Terry's been in the doghouse for quite some time now, so I haven't been buying them as often... :rolleyes:

Hugs.

Well, it just seems that he must have been in there for a while ... is the length of time well-deserved? If the supply is low, maybe HE should be stockpiling as I'm sure SHE is not!!

Should have known you'd show up on the Altoids thread!! I hope you're feeling better!!

Oh trust me, the anniversary faux pas is just the drop in the bucket! Yes, August 15th rolled around, and not a sound, peep, card, nada, nothing..... Finally, I went to bed at 11:00 p.m. and left the anniversary card on his pillow (for maximum guilt effect... of course.......). The next morning, I got the old "Geez, I've been so busy lately, I totally forgot......" Um, ..........................yeah....... <_<

It's been downhill since then........ :angry:

OMG! Felidae! You're right! I went to A&P tonight to pick up some stuff and EVER SINGLE AISLE the Altoids section was empty! I have no idea how long it has been that way since I haven't been buying them lately (reason stated above <_< )!

I wonder what's up?

(Oops...... maybe I should re-word that.......... :D;) )

See, I knew you would normally have observed a hole in the Altoid section! But you had good reason not to notice.

Not to worry, Karen. Have spoken with my husband and he feels that the "Goddess of Altoids" cannot go without! :lol::lol: We will mail them to you as soon as Terry is out of the dog house. In my humble opinion, however, he should stay there -- out in the cold -- for a little while longer. Again, just my opinion. :rolleyes:

And Carla -- OF COURSE I would be on an Altoids thread! It's like a moth to the flame . . . . . . . :lol::lol:

      Celiac And Eggs

      By Scoobygirl3 · Posted

      I switched to egg beaters and have no issues.   Try that and see if it is a difference maker.  I would eat regular eggs and feel like a rock in my chest and stomach and just feels bloated and terrible.

      Cross contamination

      By trents · Posted

      I'm like Cristiana. After getting glutened, in about two hours I start develop emesis that lasts for two or three hours with intense abdominal cramping. This is followed by several hours of diarrhea. It's like my body is doing everything it can to expel the gluten as it begins to leave my stomach and enter the small bowel. So, I'm not sure how much of it actually gets into my bloodstream to create a systemic effect. But once I get past those initial intense reactions and get rehydrated I feel a lot better. Just a day or two for me. And I should add that I am not a particularly sensitive celiac who reacts strongly to a tiny amount of cross contamination. It takes a decent amount of gluten to produce a discernable reaction in me. The last reaction I can remember having was precipitated by consuming a small appetizer-size cup of soup at a Chinese restaurant that had soy sauce in it. I was careful to choose things for the main meal that didn't have soy sauce in them but overlooked the appetizer.

      Clancy’s Hint of Lime tortilla chips Aldi

      By Saratonin · Posted

      Has anyone reacted to Clancy’s hint of lime tortilla chips? The bag says gluten free, but this is the only new food I’ve had recently and I was definitely glutened by something. I know Tostito’s brand doesn’t claim gluten free and these suspiciously taste very similar to how I remember those tasting.

      Hi @Michael McDonald and welcome to the forum. Everyone's experience varies, and I think what you are experiencing is normal, having read a lot of different accounts over the years.  Of course, there is always just a slight chance that gluten might still be getting in somewhere, or that your symptoms might also be down to a gastric virus or food poisoning too, it sometimes is difficult to be sure which is which! But from my own experience, my own reactions have changed over time. Now I react differently to a significant glutening (vomiting, chills, palpitations) and the effects are about 2-3 hours after the glutening.  Sorry for TMI but I think the gluten doesn't hang around in my system as long because I throw up. Before found it took me maybe over a week to feel a lot better.  Although I felt nauseous I wasn't actually sick, so I guess more time for the gluten to hang around in my system.  I would experience chills, dizziness and diarrhea immediately.  Then, bouts of feeling unwell again for perhaps the initial week.  As well as oten feeling just plain weird and out of things.  The thing other thing would be developing a gastritis like sore stomach which could go on for two weeks or more, in the ensuing days.  I would never recommend popping a PPI long-term (unless medically advised, of course,), but time has taught me that a short dose of omeprazole 20mg for maybe 2 -3 days post glutening  helps nip this gastritis pain in the bud.  I take it first thing in the morning, with a glass of water.
