Hello All,

Strange request, but long story short my Mom's got celiac and she's out of town. One of our family friends' grandson was just diagnosed and needs to know where to go to get food, baked goods, etc. I can't get a hold of mama and I don't want this poor guy to starve! If anyone or everyone could kindly give me a few places I know that Mrs. B's grandbaby would be very appreciative. Feel free to just email me @ kellyhuiskamp@mac.com

Thanks so Much!

Kelly :blink::D:lol:;)

Festival Foods has gluten free foods in their natural food aisle and freezer. At least the one in Green bay does. They carry Kinnikinnick breads, donuts, and other baked goods in the freezer. Kinnikinnick also sells mixes. Bob Red mill has mixes that are gluten free and cake mixes from a couple places that are reliable. Gluten Free Pantry has great bread mixes that I buy all the time. They also have pie crust and corn muffin mix.

I buy rice chips there from Lundbergs which also makes rice cakes that are good for anything you would put on a slice of bread. Lundberg is known for their rice and I eat it almost everyday.

There is a great pasta made by Tinkyada that everyone loves even gluten eaters. They sell it there along with a couple of other brands. They sell gluten free flour by Pamela's. I love her brownie mix and pancake mix.

You can also buy these things from Lame Advertisement. if they want to go that route. Sometimes the shipping is free. There are Amy's products and some of her things are gluten free but people have been known to react to them. A good thing to do is start out by cooking your own meals using the basics; fruits, veggies, meat, and rice before you start using the processed foods.

Tell them to buy new cutting boards, teflon pans, toaster, colander, because gluten can be stuck in cracks and crevises and you just can't get them clean enough.

This should help until your mom gets home. She'll know should be a big help.

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.
