I'm a college student to but I do not live on campus. Once you get used to it , it will be very easy. It takes some adjusting but you can have alot that many people can have. There are great substitutes that are becoming more readily available. You have to find the right brands but we can help you here. You can message me and I will be glad to give you some info. You came to the right place:)

Dear BlackburnK,

I second the sandwiches on gluten-free bread. I actually had my first sandwich since going gluten-free yesterday. It was divine! :D I love big, stacked sandwiches! I am not supposed to eat yeast, though. I kind of felt like I have to eat the bread with yeast since my father paid so much for it. It is a rare treat for me due to affordability.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

To anyone that reads this, please reply with any info you would like to share with me!

I am a college student, always on the go, love to eat out, love to snack.

2 weeks ago I was diagnosed with Celiac disease. I am struggling to find good things to eat.

Do Puffins Cinnamon Cereal have gluten in it?

Are there other names for gluten that is on the ingredient list?

How come some wheat free foods are not gluten free??

I loved miller lite, any one try the wheat free beer?

Also what liquors do I stay away from? or do I have to be that girl and ask everytime I want to get a drink?

Any other info you would like to share, please do, since I am learning everyday.

Thanks,

Krista

Redbridge does not taste like Miller Light, but is good. Try it, you will like it.

I lived off of Honey Rice puffins when I got out of the hospital. They still make me smile.

Even if you ask, 9/10 bartenders have no ides where the alcohol they are serving came from, or what it is made from.

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

      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.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
