I like the Old time Bakery wraps. The brown ones are great, you can fold them without them breaking. The white ones make a nice pizza base but crack more than the Diegos ones when you try to fold them.

Has anyone here tried the Leda choc mint bisciuts? They look exactely like a mint slice. I would like to try but thought I'd ask here if any has tired them first.

Lots of goodies at Thextons on line shop too.

I haven't had the Leda ones - but I've just polished off the Naturally Good Choc Mint Biscuits - they're amazing!!

My blog is at Open Original Shared Link - mainly just Sydney related gluten free stuff but I guess you can find it anywhere in Australia or online :)

I had seen the old time wraps at my local woolies but not recently, however theymay just be sold out as the are nearly always out of the country life bread as well.

I have also seen them in health food stores. Just make sure u get the gluten-free ones as the do ones that are only Wheat or yest free as well.

Has anyone tried the Popcorn and fruit bars from Go Natural? They seem like an odd thing but dont taste to bad.

I tried the Livwell Apple pies but didn't like them. Far too much sugar for my taste. Does anyone else find that gluten-free foods are extra high in sugar?

Hi Georgie, Yes, I think some companies add more sugar thinking it will improve the taste.OR, I recently met the author of Gluten-Free Baking Classics. Her name is Annalise G. Roberts. She was saying that wheat flour really has a taste to it, and when you use other flours to replace it the flavors come through strong because the other flours have a "transparent" taste. In other words not much flavor at all. So, when they are used other flavors(lemon, vanilla, sugar) that you would not have noticed so much with wheat flour seem to overpower the product. Maybe that is why things taste alot sweeter to you now than before. You have had all sorts of diagnosis. I know in the US doctors don't seem to know much about this and do the same thing to their patients that was done to you. Word of mouth and educating others to the signs and symptoms of gluten intolerance, wheat allergy, or celiac disease is what we all need to be doing. And bypassing a Doctor and get DNA testing done through Enterolabs. I also initially was tested with blood work for allergies. I had airborne allergies, but my Dr also ran it through food just to see, and I was sensitive to wheat, corn, peanuts and soy. Things I've eaten all my life. Looking back there were all sorts of episodes that now I know were celiac. There are 17 of us in my immediate family with the genes and the symptoms. All are now gluten free.

The trouble with the apple pies I had was the filling - the apple was barely recognisable as a Bramley apple ! It was like eating sugar, flavoured with essence :blink: I am having a hard time finding food to eat as I have Insulin Resistance and the sugar overload from these types of foods is too much. :(

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
