Popped Sorghum.

I got some sorghum for popping and popped it for the first time. I used the same oil that I use for popcorn but made the mistake of using the same amount I would use for popcorn. And this was too much! I tried to blot some oil up with paper towels but it had already started popping. I also took it off the heat too soon. Thought it was burning but it wasn't. And I didn't put enough in the pan. So the end result yielded about 2 T. each for daughter and I to eat. I salted it, put it in tiny bowls and we ate it.

It was sooo cute! Like dollhouse popcorn. Tasted just like popcorn. So this would be a good thing to eat if you have a corn allergy. Would also make a good diet snack since the kernels are so tiny, they take a while to eat.

I got mine online. Not sure if there are any brick and mortar stores that sell the stuff.

I could be wrong but I think you need to buy the kind that says it is for popping. I got mine from American Spice.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
