"may Contain Traces Of Wheat....."

I picked up a package of Wasa crackers last night and was looking at the nutritional info. Now clearly I know these are NOT gluten-free, but as I scanned the ingredients, basically 100% rye, listed below was "Allergen info: May contain traces of wheat"

duh

I guess some people can handle rye and not wheat, I just thought it was a little comical. :)

lol. I guess if someone just has a wheat allergy, they could eat all the rye they want.

Hi 'celiac-mommy',

I believe that there are people who have a wheat intolerance, but are comfortable eating

'rye', 'spelt' etc, (don't you just hate them <ahttps://www.celiac.com/uploads/emoticons/default_mad.gif' alt=':angry:'> ). 'Only Joking'

I know-wish we were one of those :P, it just struck me as funny for some reason-probably because it was 930pm, I'd been up since 6, got 4 hours of sleep the night before (darned hospital call) and I was in the grocery store stocking up for the month since my kids were in bed and I had a moment of peace and quiet. I was a little rummy ;)

Heck! we all have our moments when something that we see or hear starts a 'titter'.

I just sent an E-mail a short time ago and was mentioning my brother-in-law,

and added In-laws, Out-laws, John Wayne whatever, I had just slipped into ' Funny half-Hour'. :lol: .

If you can smile and laugh at the 'ridiculous and the sublime' it helps!

Don't take life too seriously, they say laughter is the best medicine (wonder is it a cure for Celiac)? :unsure:

While getting some Immodium not to long ago I accidentally knocked off a box of suppositories, I hope no one saw me (or heard me) laughing as I put it back on the shelf and read "Do not take by mouth" :huh:

      diagnostic testing variance

      But you have already had the genetic testing done and you have results. You have one main celiac gene out of two main celiac genes. You have the HL-DQ8 gene. So, you do have the potential for developing celiac disease.

      oh wow that's so interesting! if I do re-scope, I will try to eat gluten more as well. when I do its super light. so maybe trying to keep that consistent for a while then the scope. plus i want to still do the genetic testing to rule it out. that would be so easy if that is negative then I for sure don't have it.

      Keep us posted about the scoping results. Make sure before the scoping you ask them to take several samples from both the duodenum and the duodenum bulb. Damage can be patchy and is sometimes missed if insufficient sampling is done during the biopsying.

      so all this info has been really helpful... thank you! I recently tested again and was IGA negative for celiac, but further testing says I am positive for one of the variants that is associated with celiac. (HLA DQ8) also says value 1 and 3 for HLA DQA1, but idk what that means. Anyway, now they are suggesting repeat scope. sometimes gluten makes...

      Gluten free flours

      I was diagnosed with Celiac disease over 8 years ago. I've managed the gluten-free diet without a lot of problems. My most recent problem is my husband has recently been diagnosed with various food allergies. Some more severe than others. One food that seems to cause the most reaction is potatoes. I love to bake and his potato allergy has thrown...

      Gluten free flours

      By CJF · Posted

      I was diagnosed with Celiac disease over 8 years ago. I've managed the gluten-free diet without a lot of problems.  My most recent problem is my husband has recently been diagnosed with various food allergies. Some more severe than others. One food that seems to cause the most reaction is potatoes.  I love to bake and his potato allergy has thrown a monkey wrench in most of the gluten free flours on the market. I have used oat flour in a few things that already have oats in them but I don't like the texture of things that don't use oats. Almond flour is too gritty for my taste. Is there anyone out there that has a brand they like that doesn't contain potato starch?  Both Bob's Red Mill and King Arthur brands have potato starch as well as Pamela's. Krusteaz brand does not but again I'm not crazy about the texture.
