Matzah?

Does anybody know where I could find gluten-free oat matzah?

I can't imagine not having something to use at the seder, but I also don't want to eat something that might sicken me. I'm an Orthodox Ashkenazi Jew, so it needs to be 100% kosher for Passover, and I don't eat rice or corn during Passover.

Are you aware that most oats contain gluten? I don't know what to say, as I'm trying to figure this one out myself...but I can have rice. So I'll bring rice crackers, but there are CC problems, etc.

Rice crackers are a problem for me, religiously, on Passover. I would not allow any guests to bring rice products into my kosher-for-Passover kitchen.

Thanks for the link!

My other option is to try spelt matza. I know it's not gluten free, but it's lower in gluten than wheat and maybe I could tolerate it for one week a year. Or maybe it will make me very sick and I'll feel lousy for all of Passover. :(

Spelt is not a good option for someone following a gluten-free diet. I hope you can use the gluten-free oat ones instead.

Be careful out there.

Ok, a friend of mine who lives close by was doing shopping in one of the "kosher stores" about a 40 minute drive away, and she was able to pick up the gluten-free oat matza for me. :) It cost $30 for a one pound box, so I'm just getting the one box this year; I'll still get the cheaper matzah for other family members so the oat matzah won't get used up quite as fast.

Had it been cheaper, I would have gotten enough oat matzah for everybody and kept the house 100% gluten-free for Pesach. I'm definitely not planning to do any cooking with matzah of any kind, but I won't limit the kids if they want matzah with butter, cream cheese, and/or jelly.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
