On CA tonight they had to come up with a recipie for a frozen food company. The winning team came up with a gluten free pasta and meatball meal. They kept mentioning how gluten free is such a big thing now due to "wheat allergies" and celiac disease!! you can acually buy the meal at: Open Original Shared Link

Wonder if it's any good!!

AWESOME! Our Schwan's rep comes this week, I think I'll see if he has any of this!

I am so excited. I watch that show and was so glad to hear that they were doing a gluten free dush. My rep will be here Friday and I am going to get several.

I've never bought anything from them except ice cream, years ago. Do they have other gluten free products?

Wasn't that cool? But, we have to check to make sure it's manufactured in a gluten-free facility, right? Besides, I don't live in the U.S., and I don't believe we have Schwan's here in Canada, so I doubt I'd be able to try it anyway. Darn.

I was excited to see that too. My hubby looked it up on the site, but it's out for us with the other allergies. He read me the ingredients before the show was over. :D I was also impressed to see that the price was the same as the other team's dish.

I buy from them regularly. I even get e-mails from them which the one Monday showed the new gluten free item. I always check the web site before I buy and I have talked to them on the phone when the ingredient list isn't too clear. I have never had a negative response from them. I get the chicken breasts, veggies, jumbo shrimp, and have never had any problems.

Well I had the new gluten free dish for dinner, and it's YUMMY! I didn't have super high hopes, as I'm not crazy about quinoa pasta, but this was SO. DANG. GOOD.

The meatballs were awesome, the sauce was great, and the pasta was perfect!

You won't be sorry if you buy some!

My mouth is actually watering. Thanks for letting us know. :P

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
