Do You Have Any Weird Food Behaviors Now?

Just curious if any other people eat "weird" things now that they are gluten-free.

For example, I use mustard a lot. (It's gluten-free and soy-free.) I'll dip pretty much anything in mustard -- potatoes, carrots, meat, whatever. I guess it's a way to replace butter and salad dressings for me, but it always makes DH say "gross!"

I think that a gluten free diet opens the doors to trying food combinations that most people would think are strange. I like spaghetti sauce with meat over mashed potatoes and French Fries dipped in guacamole.

Yeah, I get laughed at, or a grossed out look just about every meal I eat. Since going gluten free I believe spaghetti sauce can go on anything! Veggies, cheese, and spaghetti sauce, mashed potatoes and spaghetti sauce, rice and spaghetti sauce, etc.

I add chese to everything.

Sandwiches made out of van's waffles.

And I eat veggetables all the time...Like, ALL the time.

Oh, and not to mention bringing my own hamburger bun to burger resturaunts.

They think it is so weird, but its no big deal to me since its my lifestyle!

I agree! I don't often bake bread, though I do it a few times a month, but for "sandwiches" when I don't have bread or don't feel like baking it I usually wrap ham/lunchmeat in two corn tortillas or wrap my hotdogs [gluten free] in corn tortillas too, I eat more lentils/beans in all kinds of ways, cold bean salads, boiled beans and overall weird combinations, my husband always makes weird faces at the things I eat :D but he will try the ones that look/smell good, such as the breads, he loves it when i bake bread.

OH! I forgot about everything you can do with corn tortillas! My fav. with those are to layer them with sauce, pizza, and cheese to make pizza

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
