Tried Using The Search Function

I have tried several times to use the search function instead of creating a new post for something I know is already out there. I cannot get it to narrow the search appropriately. For instance, I was looking for the post on "you could be a celiac if" and I tried that phrase. I got a huge number of pages and this specific post was many pages into the search results. I also tried to get to a post from several weeks ago on what to do if your bread comes out with a flat top. I tried searching multiple ways, always got the same 53 pages, and even more than ten pages in I still had not found that post. There were all kinds of other, non-related, items shown in the first several pages. What am I doing wrong?

The "You might be celiac if" thread is in the Gab room so just click on Gab room and it should show up if you scroll down.

For searching...you may need to click most recent first. I haven't used the search engine alot on here so someone else *cough* celiac3270 *cough* may be able to help you with that part more.

Thanks, Kaiti :D

Yeah, when you go to search, you can click "More Options" to narrow it down by username, date, etc. Also, the most valuable piece of information with the search is how to narrow it down. Go to search, then under where you put in the words you want to search for there's a link called "Advanced Usage Help." Click on that--it explains it all. If you want to search for you must be celiac if, but don't want to get posts that just mention "celiac" or "you", put a plus sign in front of the phrases that MUST be in that post for it to appear as a result. So if you know that "if" is in it and celiac is in it, put a plus in front of both and they can only give you results that have both those words: you might be +celiac +if. I copied the explanation below:

Use Means

apple banana Find posts that contain at least one of these words

+apple +juice Find posts with both words

+apple -juice Find posts with 'apple' but not 'juice'

apple* Find posts with 'apple' and/or 'applesauce'

"Some Words" Find posts with the phrase 'some words of wisdom', 'some words' but not 'some noise words'

Hey everyone! :)

Donna, thanks for asking about this topic...I've wondered the same thing myself.

celiac3270, you did an excellent job explaining it too!

No more sorting through 30 pages to find an old topic :D

Take Care,

Julie (who knows little about cooking, and even less about computers) :P

Hey, it's hard to find :D I found I was still doing it the old way until just a few months ago--and I consider myself to be computer-literate. :lol:

Thanks for the detailed explanation, celiac3270. As usual, you are right on top of things. I'll give it another try and see how well I do with the new info.

      thank yo, i still eat a bit of dairy and a fair amount of processed foods. I wonder if I have sibo... I will look into that

      I think the best you will be able to do is to find out if gluten, or at least wheat, barley or rye is an intentional ingredient in a smoke product and only the manufacturer can answer that question. Since smokes are regulated by the AFT and not the FDA, allergens are not required to be declared in the labeling.

      yes i understand that pectin is gluten free ty.  i want to know if any cigars are gluten free its a simple question
    • trents
      Welcome to the forum, @brian weinstein! Gluten is a protein found in wheat barley and rye kernels. Pectin is a polysaccharide (a very complex sugar) found in the cell walls of fruits and vegetables. It is most commonly used as a thickening agent in food products, particularly jellies. So, pectin is naturally gluten free. That is not to the same as saying the cigar is gluten free.  Personally, I am reluctant to text you. I think most of us would feel the same way. Too many people already have access to our cell phone numbers.

      i have a question i called 3 cigar manufacturers alec bradley, olivia and camacho to ask if any of their cigars are gluten free?  camacho told me that their cigars are made with pectin does that mean they are gluten free?  does anyone know the correct answer please let me know text me at (347) 219-6325 ty
