Did Karen finally find some??? Is Terry out of the doghouse???

Rebecca, we just have a bit of silliness ... it's become a tradition. We act like we're being really bad, but we just get silly.

I have been on a quest - Altoids have mysteriously disappeared from shelves in Canada. I have been searching - they are nowhere.

Oh well, doesn't matter - Terry's still in the doghouse - I think he should really think about winterizing it - he's gonna need to keep warm through the winter.

My husband sells insulated metal wall panels, let me know if you need some :lol::lol::lol:

Terry doesn't sound like he's trying to hard to get out of the doghouse ... maybe he knows about the Altoid shortage and figures it's not worth trying! :lol::lol:

I think there is an Altoids conspiracy in Canada. LOL

Karen -- I can send up an extra space heater and a 50' outdoor cord, if you need it. Give him some extra blankets, too. Sure you guys up there have sleeping bags that are rated for below zero. I also have a little electric/or/ battery-operated T.V. It gets crappy reception, but then again . . . . Maybe someone else has a little hot plate . . . he could heat up some Chef Boyardee Ravioli on it -- right in the can. He can keep drinks cold outside. I'm thinking that we have a whole package deal going on here for him. Naaaaaaaahhh.... he wouldn't have to help around the house -- he might like it too much!!! No, make him stay INDOORS in the INSIDE doghouse!!!

BTW: I love your new avatar. Did you design that cat?

Also -- for all you Canadians -- I'll be happy to be your U.S. Altoids hook-up! Walgreens has buy one get one free every other week -- the clerk knows me by name ;)

      Gluten-Mimicking Proteins that can affect some Celiac individuals.

      Thank you for sharing your experience, Florence. It’s important to clarify, though, that proteins like zein in corn, panicin in millet, and kafirin in sorghum are not considered gluten and have not been shown to trigger the same autoimmune intestinal damage seen in celiac disease. Some people with celiac disease do report symptoms with certain gluten-free g...

      Second chance

      It’s true that awareness of celiac disease can vary among physicians, particularly outside of gastroenterology, and many patients end up educating their own providers. Reaching out to someone you trusted for 25 years makes sense if you felt heard and supported. That said, celiac disease management often benefits from a team approach, including a knowledgeable p...

      Schar's products contain wheat!

      I understand why that feels concerning. Some Schär products use specially processed wheat starch that has had the gluten removed to meet strict gluten-free standards (under 20 ppm in the U.S. and EU), which is why they can legally and safely be labeled “gluten free” for people with celiac disease. However, wheat must still be listed in the ingredients and ...

      Thank you for sharing your experience, Florence. It’s important to clarify, though, that proteins like zein in corn, panicin in millet, and kafirin in sorghum are not considered gluten and have not been shown to trigger the same autoimmune intestinal damage seen in celiac disease. Some people with celiac disease do report symptoms with certain gluten-free grains, oats, or other foods, but that reflects individual intolerance or sensitivity—not a proven “gluten-mimic” effect that damages the small intestine. Certified gluten-free oats are considered safe for most people with celiac disease, though a small subset may react to avenin. If specific foods consistently cause symptoms for you, it makes sense to avoid them personally, but it’s helpful for readers to know that these foods are still medically classified as gluten-free and generally safe for the broader celiac community.

Reaching out to someone you trusted for 25 years makes sense if you felt heard and supported. That said, celiac disease management often benefits from a team approach, including a knowledgeable primary care provider and, when needed, a gastroenterologist or dietitian familiar with gluten-related disorders. Advocating for yourself is not unreasonable—it’s part of managing a chronic condition. If your current provider relationship isn’t working, it’s appropriate to seek care where you feel respected and properly supported.

However, wheat must still be listed in the ingredients and allergen statement because it is derived from wheat, even though the gluten protein has been removed. For individuals with a true wheat allergy, these products are not appropriate—but for those with celiac disease, properly tested gluten-free wheat starch is considered safe under current medical guidelines. That said, it’s completely reasonable to prefer products made without wheat starch if that gives you greater confidence, and clearer front-of-package communication could certainly help reduce confusion for shoppers.

      By elisejunker44 · Posted

      I have enjoyed Schar's gluten free products for years. However, some items Do contain Wheat and are not clearly labeled on the front. Indeed the package states 'gluten free' on the front, and it is not until you read the ingredient label that one see's wheat as the first ingredient. Some celiacs may be willing to take a chance on this 'gluten free wheat', but not me. I strongly feel that the labeling for these wheat containing products should be clearly labeled on the front, with prehaps a different color and not using the 'no gluten symbol on the front. The products are not inexpensive, and also dangerous for my health!
