Yesterday I went to Smitty's in Regina (where we always stop for breakfast/lunch). The lady was kind enough to heat my rice bread for me in the microwave before our meal arrived. The accidently put toast on my plate and she asked "do you have a toast allergy?" I said yes, so she said "we'll go make another one". And sure enough, within a couple of minutes I had a fresh plate with the toast on the side. She came with the new one and said "Well I don't want to get you sick!".

Now why cant ALL places be like that?!

I didnt tip, but I did give them a huge thank you more than once!! They usually offer to toast my bread or whatever, but I explain I can't share a toaster. So i guess from now on i'll just get them to warm it up, knowing that they'll do it :). I think we'll be going back more ;). Even better I'll be living in that city in a few months :lol:

Going to Smitty's for dinner tonight (in Winnipeg) for the first time since my dx. Can't find a # to call ahead (it's a brand new location and not yet listed). Does anyone know what (if anything) is safe on their menu?

Thanks,

Jillian

P.S. -- Lisa, I am a HUGE hockey fan too! I've been playing for 20+ years (I'm 26) and watch HNIC whenever I don't have a game myself :) We'd be rivals though lol I grew up in Toronto and am (unfortunately) a Leafs fan! Cheers

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
