Maida flour, used in the pastry on samosas is very highly refined, low gluten and often contains part tapoica starch. So its really not the thing to choose for an allergy challenge....

jealous though I am :lol:

no, this doesn't necessarily mean anything. when I was challenging gluten originally, I would only be able to go a few days at a time before I'd cave and eat gluten- with little to no reaction- which just confused me more. But once I let myself heal, I now get a big reaction with a teensy bit. So it's a matter of letting the reaction clear up (for at least a few weeks) before challenging, and maybe with a food other than samoas.

You mean Samoas (Girl Scout cookie time!), right? :D Those definitely contain gluten.

(slaps self in head) I thought she was eating those tasty fried potato stuffed savory indian pastries. Of course, I've never even seen a girl scout cookie (which may be a good thing :P )

      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/
