Hurricane Ike Is Coming!

Hey guys! Need some quick help!

I have Hurricane Ike :huh: barreling toward us and I need some easy non-perishable gluten free ideas for my two girls, 11 & 14 and if anyone is allergic to soy like me I'd appreciate any ideas for gluten free, dairy free and soy free!

Any help and ides would be appreciated. I have bought some Bush's beans, however I've never eaten them before so I'm a bit paranoid about putting something new in my mouth during a time like this..............Any suggestions would be more that appreciated!

Marsha :blink:

When we didnt know what Hanna was gonna do and the one before that one we did a little shopping.

I bought canned tuna. Plantain chips and fruit that doesnt go bad fast. And my beloved Almonds by "Back To Nature". I was delighted when I called them and they were very up on Celiac and said all of their products are gluten free. Hemp milk. Apple sauce and canned fruits. This was enough for me to feel secure for up to 2 weeks.

Good choices are apples and peanut butter or almond butter. Tuna and corn chips. Trail mix. Canned refried beans, salsa and corn chips. Could get corn tortillas too (they dont have to be refridgerated).

Apple sauce and almonds. gluten-free cereal with the small individual rice/almond/hazelnut milks.

Get some plastic plates, silverware and cups.

Buy ice and put in coolers.

Dont open the fridge or freezer if you lose power. Things will stay good for a few days if you dont open them. Hopefully power wouldnt be out long.

If so....make sure you have lots of charcoal for the grill, so you can grill what you can.

Thanks for the reply Shay! My brother lives in New Hampshire and gave him a hard time about Hannah. He has a neice named Hannah! Told him she reached out and gave him a big hug! LOL

I do have tuna for the girls, again I get paranoid because I'm allergic to it and my lungs close up pretty quick so I just hesitate to even have it in the house...........I'll be glad when I can get passed the emotional aspects of all this.....

I just got in today from Canada some kinninnick or however you spell it bread and I'm pleased! I bought me some peanut butter to snack with the bread. We do have a gas grill to use. I'm just not a fan of alot of boxed sugary treats. I purchased some fruit, but my girls may not want to eat it. (Guess they will not have a choice) I read that the Libby's vienna sausges are gluten free, however this isn't something I would feed them before their celiac diagnosis......so now what.........

Considered canned chicken. I don't believe it contains soy, but double check. I can't handle the mercury in tuna so I keep a dozen cans of chicken in my emergency box instead of tuna.

Hormel chilli is gluten-free as well. And they have those easy open indivudal containers. Buy a couple blue ice blocks if you can. They stay cold longer than ice, don't melt all over the place, and can be refrozen if you get somewhere where you can pop them in a freezer for a couple hours.

Swanson canned broth is gluten-free. You can always throw some canned chicken and some rice noodles in to it for a quick soup.

How about things like carrot or celery sticks? Whatever you do, don't forget a can opener and serving spoons. How about raisens or cranraisens, do the kids like them? SPAM? I know, I know, but it's canned, easy to open, and it can be sliced for sandwiches, or thrown in soup or even, heavens, BBQ's with BBQ sauce on it. Don't forget condiments as well. It's amazing how much better life is with salt and pepper and a little ketchup. If you can keep them somewhat cold and have the time, boil a dozen eggs; they're pure protein and easy to handle.

Good luck. Let us know how you're doing.

Dinty Moore beef stew comes in pop top cans and is gluten free. Also Lara Bars are good. :)

I keep jugs of assorted sizes of water in the freezer. You can refreeze them or drink them when they thaw. Or use them to wash with. Our power goes off many times a year.

Thanks Violet! The ketchup advice made me laugh! It is true. Heinz ketchup was one of the first gluten free finds for my girls-on their own! I do like the egg idea! I will do this. I eat them in my salads and my 14 year old will at them too! It's the 11 year old that all she wants is scrambled eggs and sausage. I appreciate all the information and will keep in touch!

Keep an eye out. I'm in Houston, so if you watch the weather channell they are in Galveston, Texas 45 minutes away.

      My only proof

      By AlwaysLearning · Posted

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      Gluten related ??

      By AlwaysLearning · Posted

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/
