Job In A Coffee Shop/ Bakery

I just got offered a job in a local coffee shop and bakery. They make all their foods and pastries on site. I would not be working with the food personally but I am wondering if being around the white flour will cause a reaction. It has been a year since I have been around any amount of white flour so I do not know if I should expect a reaction. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Honestly, I think it would just be asking for trouble. White flour gets everywhere....such fine particles. You can easily breathe them in and they get in your throat and down into your stomach. Very risky at best. I hope you have other opportunities for jobs.

      I have been looking for brands that are ready to make areas of time as I normally hear my oatmeal 1 min in microwave every morning. It appears buckwheat requires allot of cleaning soaking longer cook times. Any eat recipes have you tried. Also what's the reason if adding lemon juice to groats? Thanks

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      @nancydrewandtheceliacclue, If I were you I would give up the bread tossing until everything is under control for a few months straight. Then try doing it again and see if symptoms return. If you just can't give it up, try wearing a good mask, tie your hair up tight, and take other steps to reduce the possibility of crumbs sticking to you and eventually ending...

      New Study Reveals How the Immune System Learns Which Foods Are Safe to Eat

      It would be an interesting experiment to add the zein "tolerance" tag to a gliadin peptide and feed it to the celiac mouse model to see if it is tolerated or rejected.

      I love buckwheat groats (or kasha). I also like to add peanut butter to it. There are a bunch of these alternatives but I also recommend amaranth. It's good with fruit and/or cinnamon.

      @nancydrewandtheceliacclue, If I were you I would give up the bread tossing until everything is under control for a few months straight. Then try doing it again and see if symptoms return. If you just can't give it up, try wearing a good mask, tie your hair up tight, and take other steps to reduce the possibility of crumbs sticking to you and eventually ending up in your food. Attached below is a link to a nice graphic on what 10 mg would look like and I think it would be possible to ingest enough crumbs through the air. Also keep in mind that some people are reacting even at 10 mg per day. (They describe it as 1/350th of a slice of bread.) https://nationalceliac.org/celiac-disease-questions/understanding-gluten-levels/

      @nancydrewandtheceliacclue, if you had trouble breathing, I agree with Scott. That sounds like anaphylaxis.
