I was goign to ask if anyone ever had any problem with the coffee there, but then I forgot how silly that would be to ask since I worked there (well before I knew I had a gluten intolerance). I just wanted to say it probably isnt a good idea for any celiac to consume anything from there or places like it due to CC. I'm pretty sure that even the coffee pots have gluten lurking in them. When I worked there we had to de-lime them several times a day, this required cleaning the pots and the actual machine that holds the water. I rememebr there was this long metal strip thing that we had to insert into the machine to clean the grounds and gunk out. That metal strip wasnt really stored anywhere special and in between cleaning the pots it would be places rught on the counter were where I'm 100% there were crumbs of gluten floating aroud from bagel and what not.......

just thought I'd share the info.

Also the fruit in the yogurt cups were measured right in the store in the same area donuts and bread was being baked... this depressed me now that I think about it b/c my mom just gave me gift certificates to Tim hortons *GEE THANKS MOM!* :blink:

      Does anybody know of a guide that ranks reevaluates universities and colleges in terms of their accommodation of celiac disease or food allergies?   Thanks in advance for any leads! Valerie

      thank you, i have been doing that the last few weeks and will continue to do so. I had not had my ttg iga checked since I was diagnosed 14 yrs ago so I am not sure if they ever dropped below the 15-20 range.    all my other labs are completely normal but I am concerned that this may be signs of refractor celiac or something else since I'm so careful with gluten-free diet

      Around 9% of celiacs cannot tolerate any oats, even gluten-free oats. It might be worth eliminating them for a few months, then get re-tested.

      I only eat certifed gluten-free products but a lot of which are processed. Could there be trace gluten in those or is that very unlikely?

      For people with celiac disease hidden gluten in their diets is the main cause of elevated Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Antibodies (tTG-IgA), but there are other conditions, including cow's milk/casein intolerance, that can also cause this, and here is an article about the other possible causes (you may want to avoid oats):
