I just saw Mission Super Size White Corn Tortillas in an ad and went to the Mission website. They appear to be gluten-free.

Here is the ingredient list that I copied from the website:

GROUND CORN TREATED WITH LIME, WATER, CELLULOSE GUM, PROPIONIC ACID (TO PRESERVE FRESHNESS), PHOSPHORIC ACID (PRESERVATIVE), BENZOIC ACID (TO PRESERVE FRESHNESS), DEXTROSE, GUAR GUM, AMYLASE.

I hope this means that we can have large burritos and enchiladas again without using delicate rice tortillas! :D Has anyone tried these yet?

Broncobux - how do you make the Food for Life tortillas soft? I use them all the time but no matter what I do (microwave, heat on stove, just defrost on counter) they are always too chewy to be considered a burrito <_<

I put each one in the microwave for a short time before I fill it. Then I bake all six of them. Yummy.

Darn I am disappointed. I went to the store looking for these, thinking I was going to get some thing bigger then what we have been using. But these are ones we have been using for some time now. I was all excited thinking I was going to get some thing like a burrito size. They are only a little bigger then a regular corn tortilla. But they are good eating.

I know...I was disappointed too. They have the same texture as regular corn tortillas but they taste a little better.

I toast my rice wraps for 1 minute, then put in the stuff, wrap, and put back in toaster for a couple more minutes. Works fine! I find that some batches are softer than others also!

I just ordered some Ivory Teff Wraps made by La Tortilla Factory. I made a wrap with it and they were quite good. They are a larger size and very pliable. Of course, I had to stick the rest in the freezer so who knows how good they will be next time but so far they are a great substitue for flour tortillas.

We buy a brand from shop rite. I'm not sure of the name of it, but it is Mexican. I has red and white and green on the package. Corn tortillas - they are the smaller size, but good.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
