I went shopping yesterday in Shoprite. I found soooooo much stuff that is gluten free. The Passover stuff is being put out, I am not sure when Passover is, but the food is going out. There are items that say gluten free right on the box. Last nite I made Liebers Scalloped Potatoes from a BOX!! I usually make them by hand and yest I love them my way, but to be able to open up a box and add water and butter and bake.. wowie! They tasted pretty darn good too. (not better than my own of course :P ) I bought a few cake mixes, onion soup mix by Osem which says gluten free right on the container, Gefen puts out all kinds of pasta.. elbows, shells, zitis. I of course, got the egg noodles too! I was a mad woman in there!! It was great. The rabbi had a blast going thru all the stuff with me.. hehehehe, he was so happy to help me and to explain some of the religious stuff behind all kosher and glatt kosher to me. I had a great time! what an outing... to the grocery store!

Hooray for Passover!

Just be careful, as not all Kosher-for-Passover things are gluten-free. If it contains matzo meal, matzo flour, ground matzo, or matzo starch (and sometimes it's spelled, "matzah"), it still comes from wheat!

Enjoy!

Also, if you don't have an Asian store nearby (Asian stores are great places to stock up cheaply on rice flour, tapioca starch, and potato starch), this is the time to stock up on potato starch. The Manischevitz brand is what you usually see in the Passover section, and it's much cheaper than Bob's Red Mill.

I only bought the items that specifically said gluten free on the boxes. And of course, double checked the ingredients. I tried the scalloped potatoes and they were good... I havent tried any of the cake mixes and they come with a frosting pack right in the box. Again the box says gluten free and I double checked the ingredients. Alot of Kosher items do contain matzo meal in some form, so we have to be careful, but remember egg noodles are gluten free!!!! Manshieviwitz (sp) brand. YAY

Not all Manshiewitz egg noodles are gluten free, only the passover noodles are according to their website. If only my Wal-mart would start stocking their shelves for passover... They really have gluten free cake mixes??? At a normal grocery store??? That would be so wonderful!

Wow, I never even thought to check the label of the egg noodles! What starch do they use? Potato?

Yes, they are the manishevitz (sp?) gold premium ONLY! They are specifically for Passover only. And yes cake mixes with the frosting packs right in the box, and gluten free is written boldly in yellow on the box!! I bought a crispy chicken coating, which again speificallly states gluten free.. and a honey glaze chicken, cheaper than the one bbq one we can have from shake n bake. The egg noodles do use potato instead of wheat, but its only this time of year. Gefen makes all kinds of noodles, shells, elbows, etc.. I bought a few of them they are a lot cheaper than Tinkyada, probably not nearly as good, but I will take ok too! The store I shopped in was a ShopRite, the one in Mercer, out by Princeton in New Jersey..

I discovered last month that Vons stocks some gluten free items. There is this little section of the baking aisle in our local Vons with gluten free cake and muffin mixes and flours and things like Almond Milk. They also stock a couple of the special gluten-free cereal brands in their cereal aisle. When I saw the little section in the baking aisle though I started to cry. I don't as a rule shop there becasue they're prices are so much higher, but I now shop there once every couple weeks for the special stuff.

I also found a sweet potato pancake mix in the international aisle with the passover foods that is gluten free and not bad tasting. It makes a nice side dish at dinner :)

Isn't it amazing how just finding something you can eat in a grocery store brightens your whole day?

      Diagnosis and further testing Celiac

      By Redanafs · Posted

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.

      To evaluate the TTG antibody result we’d need to know the normal range for that lab.  Labs don’t all use the same units.  However, based on any normal ranges that I’ve seen and the listed result being greater than a number rather than a specific number, I’d say yes, that is high! Higher than the range where the test can give a quantitative result. You got good advice not to change your diet yet.  If you went gluten free your intestines would start to heal, confusing any further testing,

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Bev in Milw · Posted

      Scott is correct….Thank you for catching that!      Direct link for info  of fillers.    http://www.glutenfreedrugs.com/Excipients.htm Link is on 2nd page  of www.glutenfreedrugs.com   Site was started by a pharmacist (or 2) maybe 15-20 yrs ago with LAST updated in  2017.  This makes it’s Drug List so old that it’s no longer relevant. Companies & contacts, along with suppliers &  sources would need to be referenced, same amount effort  as starting with current data on DailyMed      That being said, Excipient List is still be relevant since major changes to product labeling occurred prior ’17.           List is the dictionary that sources the ‘foreign-to-us’ terms used on pharmaceutical labels, terms we need to rule out gluten.    Note on DailyMed INFO— When you look for a specific drug on DailyMed, notice that nearly all of companies (brands/labels) are flagged as a ‘Repackager’… This would seem to suggest the actual ‘pills’ are being mass produced by a limited number of wholesaler suppliers (esp for older meds out of  patent protection.).      If so, multiple repackager-get  bulk shipments  from same supplier will all  be selling identical meds —same formula/fillers. Others repackager-could be switching suppliers  frequently based on cost, or runs both gluten-free & non- items on same lines.  No way to know  without contacting company.     While some I know have  searched pharmacies chasing a specific brand, long-term  solution is to find (or teach) pharmacy staff who’s willing help.    When I got 1st Rx ~8 years ago, I went to Walgreens & said I needed gluten-free.  Walked  out when pharmacist said  ‘How am I supposed  to know…’  (ar least he as honest… ). Walmart pharmacists down the block were ‘No problem!’—Once, they wouldn’t release my Rx, still waiting on gluten-free status from a new supplier. Re: Timeliness of DailyMed info?   A serendipitous conversation with cousin in Mi was unexpectedly reassuring.  She works in office of Perrigo, major products of OTC meds (was 1st to add gluten-free labels).  I TOTALLY lucked out when I asked about her job: “TODAY I trained a new full-time employee to make entries to Daily Med.’  Task had grown to hours a day, time she needed for tasks that couldn’t be delegated….We can only hope majorities of companies are as  conscientious!   For the Newbies…. SOLE  purpose of  fillers (possible gluten) in meds is to  hold the active ingredients together in a doseable form.  Drugs  given by injection or as IV are always gluten-free!  (Sometimes drs can do antibiotics w/ one-time injection rather than 7-10 days of  pills .) Liquid meds (typically for kids)—still read labels, but  could be an a simpler option for some products…
