Passover Is In 3 Weeks

The stores already are selling Passover products and for those who don't know - most of what is sold has no wheat, corn or rice. As I mentioned once before, Manishewitz has a complete line of Gluten Free products and on their site there is a complete list.

BUT - you need to be careful - if it has Matzoh Meal or Cake Meal that is from wheat.

Almost all Macaroons and Candy are Gluten Free and even Gefilte Fish is now available Gluten Free and Egg-Free (It's an acquired taste but I bought 2 different brands last year and they weren't bad).

In the kosher stores in Brooklyn, NY the last 2 years they also had Gluten Free cookies and Crackers Kosher for Passover.

WHERE did you find gluten-free gefilte fish??????!! What brand is it? (And does it taste any good?) I miss gefilte fish so much!

I just stocked up on Manischevitz Kosher-for-Passover gluten-free egg noodles!!! But as cycler said, read the labels! A lot of stores put out a lot of Manischevitz products around Passover, assuming if it says Manischevitz, then all the Jews will buy it, when in fact, only the officially Kosher-for-Passover stuff has any chance at all of being gluten-free.

Incidentally, if you don't have an Asian store near you, this is your chance to stock up on potato starch!

I bought it in Pathmark but it was also available in Brooklyn. I don't remember the brand but there were two of the major ones - Rokeach or Manishewitz and each had two varieties (one was "Gourmet"). I feel so dumb because last year was the second year I bought it and BOTH TIMES I forgot to write down the name of which one was the best!

They really aren't bad - not like Grandma's of course (my grandmother did her own from scratch) but definitely edible. They add a lot of peppper to compensate so they are pretty spicy. I also wasn't able to get horseradish before because of my concern about vinegar but now I think it will be ok so if you add the horseradish it probably will taste even better.

cycler, which brand of gefilte fish is egg-free?

don't know if I've ever heard anyone saying they miss gefilte fish that much... but I'm only half-jewish so maybe that's why I don't quite share your affinity for it ;) ... as for a brand that is gluten-free, I think one brand is Rokeach... I was eating some last year after going gluten-free but stopped because I think it had egg in it... it tastes pretty good as far as gefilte fish goes, didn't seem any different than other gefilte fish I had before so I'd expect that you would like it

I just remembered - Kedem is Gluten Free and Egg Free and has 2 varieties but there is also another brand which is both also.

Has anyone tried the gluten free oat matzos from England? I ordered a box, and they are breathtakingly expensive, but I figured they are worth it because I won't be morbidly depressed missing my Hillel sandwich on Pesach! In fact, my last ''gluteny'' meal was Passover of last year, sniff!

      And the fact is, no two celiacs will necessarily respond the same to gluten exposure. Some are "silent" celiacs and don't experience obvious symptoms. But that doesn't mean no harm is being done to their gut. It just means it is subclinical.

      Thank you, Trents.  I appreciate your helpful and friendly reply. It seems more likely to be a bug.  It has been a pretty severe bought. I feel that I don’t have enough experience to know what signs my little one shows after exposure to gluten.

      Hannah24, be aware that if you are on a gluten free diet, you will invalidate any further testing for celiac disease (except genetics) and would need to go back to eating significant amounts of gluten for weeks or months to qualify for valid testing.

      Hello, @Hannah24 Have you had a DNA test done?  Celiac Disease is genetic.  You must have at least one gene to develop celiac disease.  You don't have to be consuming gluten for a genetic test.   Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can cause false negatives.  Some lucky people are seronegative, but still have celiac disease.  Peripheral neuropathy, tingling in hands and feet are symptoms of vitamin deficiencies.  Vitamin C, Thiamine B1, Niacin B3, Pyridoxine B6, and Cobalamine B12 can each cause peripheral neuropathy.  These same vitamins are needed to produce blood cells.  Most undiagnosed Celiacs suffer from nutritional deficiencies. The DNA test would be helpful.

      We do hear of cases of remission but they generally eventually revert back. I wouldn't push your luck.
