I was wondering if anyone else was thinking about going to this? It is this Sat on St. Patty's day. It is at pier 66 in Seattle. I seems kinda spendy, but could be fun.....

I thought about it, and the money does go to support education, but I was kind of mad that I have to pay $6 for a bag of flour AND they think I should be paying for their educational expenses.

And it took them over a month to answer an email I sent asking for details on this.

Hhmm, 6 bucks for a bag of flour huh? It better be some darn good flour.... I was considering it as a way to try some new goodies and have a no worry social event. Maybe even feel somewhat normal and not have to ask what is in everything.

Jestgar Rising Star

Well, there is that. I'm not a very social person so that part of it didn't occur to me at all :)

Crawling back into my cave now :ph34r:

I'm not very social either LOL. I am way too shy, but I thought maybe i could kick myself in the rear and try at least. I too am a cave dweller. I may drag my mom with me.

Currently checking prices (no lie!) I was supposed to go to San Francisco this week but had to cancel due to stomach flu. Maybe I'll be on the mend...that would be sweet and I would LOVE to meet you guys!

Jestgar Rising Star

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      How do I contact someone at celiac.com concerning the cessation of my weekly e-newsletter? I had been receiving it regularly for years. When I tried to sign-up on the website, my email was not accepted. I tried again with a new email address and that was rejected as well. Thank you in advance!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.
