I just joined this forum and looking for fellow AZ's who KNOW what the summers are like!!! UGH!!! We are getting close to the furnace being turned on and I am NOT looking forward to it. Thank goodness for the swimming pool in my back yard.

I live in New River. Where is everyone else located?

What are you favorite stores for gluten-free products?

Welcome aboard Donna! I don't live in Arizona presently but I spent several great years in Scottsdale. I loved the summers there! I go back every chance I get.

Thanks Janet

I LOVE your puppy. Is it yours? Is it a lab?

It is. I have two of the little buggers. Although they aren't so little anymore. They both weigh in over 90 lbs.

I know what you mean. I have an Austrialain Shepard/Lab mix and he weighs in at about 90lbs. too. But he is my baby. I have two others, one a pure bred Austrialain shepard and the other an aussie mix, they are our babies!!

Welcome to the forum!

I live in Fountain Hills. I think Whole Foods has the best selection of gluten free foods. The Safeway near me carries some gluten free items as well. Also, I have a Health Food Store near me, Nature's Finest, that has a nice selection.

I TOTALLY agree!! I love Whole Foods. HAve you seen what Trader Joe's has? It was nice having gluten-free tortillas. The Safeway by us (Cave Creek & Tatum) don't have a lot of items. The Frys by me (Cave Creek & Carefree Hwy) has a lot of items and will order things as I request!! They are great.

Hi, I live here in Phoenix.

I do shop at Whole Foods a lot. There's a new one down the 101 in Chandler, that has a pretty good stock of gluten-free things. However, no one place, it seems, has everything. I also go to Trader Joe's, and Sprouts.

It's hard because Whole Foods can get expensive!

And, my favorite restaurant is Picazzo's Pizza. I love it there!

      Gluten Sensitivity

      Hello. Do you mind saying what symptoms led the doctors to test for bacteria in your blood?

      Gluten Sensitivity

      So you you ate wheat products every single day for 50 years without a problem but then in the 90's you discovered that wheat was your problem. That's confusing to me. It seems contradictory. Did you have a problem or not?

      Gluten Sensitivity

      I spent my first 50 years eating wheat products every single day with no ill affects. Being a 6’2” Italian you can imagine what my diet was like and believe me I had an appetite that wouldn’t quit. In the 90’s once I discovered the wheat was my problem I avoided it and no longer had IBS. I seriously doubt I have celiac but I appreciate your input a...

      Gluten Sensitivity

      I would say two things and then I'm done. Many celiacs have been misdiagnosed for years with IBS. Testing for celiac disease requires regular and significant consumption of gluten for weeks/months in order to be valid.

      Latent celiac, need to go gluten free, advice on kitchen "reset?"

      Can the rest of your household eat the food with gluten instead of getting rid of it? Can you create one shelf, or partial shelf, for your new food in the pantry, in the fridge and in the cabinets as a start? My husband is not gluten free so we each have a cabinet, and separate shelves in the fridge. If we have to share space the gluten free foods...

I’ve been eating things I’ve longed for for decades and have never felt better.

My husband is not gluten free so we each have a cabinet, and separate shelves in the fridge. If we have to share space the gluten free foods go on the upper shelves so crumbs with gluten can’t fall onto them. Good luck!
