Gluten Free Article In Atlanta Paper Today

[floridanative]

I was interviewed for this piece, the woman spelled my name wrong (everyone does..lol) but overall she did a decent job. She got the medical info from the NIH, which unfortunately doesn't have the current stats but it's still great exposure for our cause. In the actual paper they have colors photos of the salmon, steak sandwich, choc. cake and Redbridge beer mentioned in the story. It's about 1/3 page in the Better Health section.

The author is the same woman who posted a horridly inaccurate blog about Celiac on the ajc.com site and kimjoy on this site posted about here. At least the author now knows more correct info about Celiac and gluten free dining than she did!

You can view the article for free for six more days.

Thanks for sharing this story! You are a celebrity

By the way, you mention that she didn't use the latest statistics. Which are you referring to?

Good article, Tiffany! Thanks for sharing it with us.

I did read the author's earlier article, and it looks like she's done her homework this time. How exciting to be interviewed

Thanks for posting this, perfect timing! I'm in Atlanta!

We ate dinner at Cheeseburger in Paradise. We're staying near the Perimeter Mall and I didn't know about Wildfire. I hope they're open for lunch, or else I'll have to talk Adam into staying tomorrow night, too!

I thought the details about preparing the food were great!

I see someone beat me to it about the article in the Atlanta paper. I read it this morning and thought it was good.

Hay Carla welcome to Atlanta. I hope you enjoy your stay.

In the article it says 1 in 133 have Celiac. It's actually 1 in 100. The NIH site is usually not that up to date...they get changes and it literally takes months for them to be keyed in. This is what someone who works for the government told me anyway. Anyway, this woman (who is a nutritionist after all) is trying to learn and for that I'm thankful.

Carla - have a great time here! Didn't you enjoy the weather (until today...lol)? Wildfire is open for lunch but I've been out at meetings so I did not see your note until now. Lunch is absolutely their best value!
