Serious Salty Junk Food Craving


Guest cassidy

Recommended Posts

Guest cassidy

I'm pregant and I have been eating very healthy but I want Taco Bell, or Domino's - something really bad that tastes good so badly that I can't take it anymore. I won't cheat but I want to find a gluten-free treat that will do the trick.

Here are the requirements - can't be produced in the same place as gluten, yes I'm that sensitive and won't risk cc. I don't like meat and I can't have tomatoes or potatoes. I love spicy but I can't tolerate any spices right now, not even black pepper so I have been eating tons of bland food. I'm definitely looking for salty and not sweet.

Any ideas?

Make some nachos with chopped olives, maybe some chopped red bell pepper.

Sweet potato chips and hummus.

mini pizzas on toasted bread.

I noticed you can't do spices. I couldn't either for awhile. Have you ever tried drying papaya seeds in the oven and grinding them up in a pepper grinder ? They taste a little like pepper, but are actually digestive enzymes ... just in case you want to try it . You heat them at 250 degrees for 1 - 1 1/2 hours, then let them cool and fnish drying out on a paper towel ..

I like apples, fuji or pink ladies, with salt to satisfy my salt cravings ... olives sound good too though ..

I am a sucker for salted chips and nuts. When I was pregnant it was chips with salsa!

Mission tortilla chips do it for me. Lundberg rice chips too. Homemade guacamole with lots of lime and a bit of salt works too. I also eat the Natural Ruffles or Lays brand potato chips, a little too much I"m sure. I'm not sure if they have CC issues though - I'm not that sensitive (yet).

Watermelon with salt is really good too. :)

And right now I'm munching on Kettle yogurt and green onion chips -- yum! (Gotta stop before I polish off the whole bag! LOL!)

I have found the Terra Chips to be very yummy, and not all of them are potato. They do a combonation of yucca, parsnip, taro etc. I am going to inquire on the gluten part though. I have taken it into my own hands to take items like taro root, parsnips yucca and slice them thin, spice em up, and bake them in the oven. It would be cheap and you would be assured of no gluten.

avocado and salt, or hummus and carrots. I also like to spread hummus and/or avocado on tortillas (you could sprinkle some salt on too) and I add tomatoes, but you could add whatever you like.

Trader Joe's White Cheddar Popcorn. Could eat bags and bags of it . Oh, and TJ's Spicy Soy Flaxseed Tortilla chips. I mourn the loss of these as can no longer tolerate flax seeds. :(

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
