Ring Dings


Nic

Recommended Posts

Nic Collaborator

For anyone who loved ring dings before going gluten free I found a very good substitute at our local health food store. They are called Ring Tings and are made by Shabtai Gourmet (Cinderella Sweets). They are a chocolate covered cake filled with a white cream filling. My son was in heaven last night. He hasn't had anything cream filled since before going gluten free.

These come out every Passover, along with lots of other gluten free cakes and cookies.

Dear Nic,

I am so glad you posted this! My brother would love those! He misses his pastries! Chad would marry Little Debbie if he could! :lol: Now that he is gluten-free, he has missed those treats. If I cannot find them locally, maybe I can order some for Christmas!

I am looking into finding these as well. ALthough it was rare to buy Ring Dings before, some days I have cravings for them or other similar snack items, I rarely ever ate. Odd, huh?

Dear Amanda,

That is how I am, too! I used to not want some things hardly at all, but since going gluten-free, have craved them. I do not know why that is. My best guess is that it is due to knowing I cannot have them ever now! Your mind really has a major impact on what you want. The psychological ramifications of forbidden foods tend to do this. It is like when you are on a diet and are not allowed dessert, you want it more.

I absolutely LOVE their rainbow cookies. They are better than any of the gluten ones.

And their Lace cookies kinda taste like samoas. Sooooooooooo good!!!

NoGluGirl Contributor

Dear jkmunchkin,

I will keep those in mind! They all sound great! Cookies are my main sweet besides chocolate. Those are the two I love! Thank you for mentioning more treats!

of course I do splurge on candy a lot more now too. My coworkers look on in amazement and ask me how I can stay so thin and I am just thinking well I don't eat cake and cookies like you guys do. I work with some women who can eat cake and cookies by the lb and have no shame :)

NoGluGirl Contributor

Dear Amanda,

That is like me, too. I bake cookies some, but I have to watch the fat due to my gallbladder removal I had several years ago. High fat anything makes me sick. Cakes are something I almost never eat, except gluten-free. In the past year, I have had two. I am not as thin as I would like to be, but eat more candy than I should. The yeast makes me crave it, and my blood sugar gets low. Talk about an unfair situation!

Sincerely,

Dear wyldlife,

I need to contact Andrew, speaking of! My local healthfood store probably would like to carry some of their items. I am a cookie person, but my brother loves doughnuts. He really misses them! I bake, but he does not. This would be a great Christmas gift for him!

Chad would marry Little Debbie if he could!

I will buy the invites if he talks her into making everything gluten-free !!! :D

NoGluGirl Contributor

Dear forgetgluten,

Thank you so much for the info! :) I am going to browse. My brother will likely want a number of the items. He really loves doughnuts and pastries. Cookies are my primary love, but I can bake. Chad is more of the typical bachelor who does not use the oven.

Dear loco_ladi,

Unfortunately, he and Little Debbie could no longer see each other since going gluten-free. :(:lol: It has been heart-wrenching for him. Who knows, though? Maybe I can figure out how to make things that taste like Little Debbie snack cakes. Meanwhile, Cinderella Sweets is a great way to enjoy treats again without fear. :D

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

      In response to your questions regarding probiotics.  I have had Celiac for 40 years.  Stomach issues: digestion, IBS to chronic constipation, bloat after eating anything.  I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference.  After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made their own probiotics I started making Milk Kefir: not water Kefir. There are 10 probiotics in milk KEFIR. After 3 weeks I was able to eat more, no gas, no IBS.  If you have a computer just ask for videos on making milk Kefir. I branched out and make my own Kombucha for even more probiotics. I do not make my yogurt because there are only about four probiotics in that. I started this when I was 82 and I still make my own Kefir and Kombucha. My stomach issues were fixed with the Milk Kefir alone. If you decide to try making it, make certain you order MILK GRAINS. The finished product tastes a bit like Buttermilk. I hope this helps in your journey to good health.

      Help me out here. Lauren Dam gluten-free beer from Spain is listed as gluten free. Yet its made from Barley Malt. I thought barley and any form had gluten. Anybody have any more information about it?

      Ferritin levels.  And see what your hemoglobin looks like too, that will tell you if you are anemic?  You can have 'low normal' levels that will not be flagged by blood tests.  I had 'low normal' levels, my lab reading was. c12, just over what was considered normal, but I had small benign lesion on my tongue, and sometimes a sore mouth, and a consultant maxillofacial ordered an iron infusion for me as he felt my levels were too low and if he  raised them to 40, it would help.   Because you are not feeling 100% it might be worth looking at your levels, then discussing with your doctor if they are low normal.  But I stress, don't supplement iron without your levels being monitored, too much is dangerous.

      Hi Katht -  I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal  function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was very true for me. I am still elimination foods from my diet. One person suggested you keep a food diary and that is a good idea but it is probably best just to do an elimination diet. There are several ne and maybe one for celiacs. I used one for a while and started with plain rice and zucchini and then added back other foods to see if I reacted or not. That helped a great deal but what I did not realise that it would only very small amounts of some foods to cause inflammation in my intestine. Within the last few years I have stopped eating any trace amounts of hot peppers, corn and soy(mostly in supplements) and nuts, (the corn in Tylenol was giving me stomach aches and the nuts were causing foot pains). Starting an elimination diet with white rice is better than brown rice that has some natural toxins. In addition it is very important to drink sufficient plain water. You can find out how much to drink for your height and weight online. I do have difficulty drinking 48 ounces of water but just recently have found an electrolyte supplement that helps me stay well hydrated, Adding the water and electrolytes may reduce muscle cramps and gag spams you wrote about. . Also buy some anti-gluten enzyme capsules to take with meals. I use GliadinX advertised here. These are a lot of things to do at one time as they reflect my 20 years of experience. I hope you do what you can manage to do over time. Good luck and take care.
