Shroomy, I have thought the same thing about that commercial. Even gluten free they look like too much!

For me it is the little frosted mini wheat guys dancing around saying how your kids will think better in school after eating them.

My boyfriend says "Olive Garden" commercials gross him out, and he's not even a Celiac! Guess it's just the general gluttony of the "endless pasta bowls and breadsticks." Translation: "Endless plates of bloating, diarrhea and/or constipation!" LOL!!

This morning Guy Ferredi (?) the cooking guy that wears his sunglasses on the back of his head, was making a pie crust and when he opened the floor, it flew up in his face and he goes, "everytime!" then he spread flour all over the table and rubbed it on the rolling pin.

I had to change the channel. The IHOP commercials, too, that food just doesn't even look good, and the put all that gross stuff on top, it just doesn't look good.

Donuts.

I really got grossed out this past weekend when I went through the Donkun Donuts drive thur with my sister. It was just the drive though and the smell of the "dough" I guess was almost repulsive. And again at work they had a couple of dunut boxes sitting around and it smelled bad to me (really bad)......a good thing I guess.

I can't remember what product the commercial is for, but one that really bugs me is the one where two women are at the laundromat. One woman asks her friend for a quarter and the other asks, aren't they dry yet? The woman who asks for the quarter replies she is trying to shrink them because she lost weight by eating whole grains. The only thing I can thing of when she says that is that she is losing weight because she has celiac and the whole grains are making her sick! I want to jump through the tv and strangle her for poisoning her body. :blink::angry: Anyway I'm always so upset/grossed out by the commercial that I never remember the product, but I'm fairly certain it is a gluteny product.

I know that commerical you're talking about! I don't know why America is so obsessed with dieting. I infuriates me, and I'm not a bit fat. I think every person is supposed to be a certain size. Like Oprah, she's happier and healthier being the size she is, and I don't think she's "fat" at all. Her head looked too big for her body when she lost all that weight. I think, just like the size of our hands or feet, we're supposed to be a certain size.

I just saw this Cymbalta commercial on tv:

"are you depressed?"

"got aches and pains?"

"feel panicky?"

"got no appetite?"

"have trouble sleeping?"

I actually did say to the TV, then quit eating gluten! My sister took that about two years ago and it freaked her entire body out, I want to tell her to quit wating gluten and see what happens, but she's my big sister and thinks she's smarter than me, so I don't say nothin.....Do you all have Rally's Hamburger joints where you live? Seriously, those commercials make me physically sick.

Americans are obsessed with dieting because many American's are fat, but also because the media tells them they should be super-skinny. So we have the problem compounded by people developing eating disorders and more people overeating and getting fat or being anorexic. That's my really simplified analysis anyway. There's also the Standard American Diet (SAD) which consisted of mainly processed "food" and the misinformation about what is "healthy" food (isn't it interesting that food can claim to be heart-healthy and contain HFCS at the same time?). For the record, I AM fat myself and I still struggle with what is healthy, however since going gluten free I have come to the conclusion that many ingredients in processed/gluteny food act just as bad as a drug and make people addicted to the food.

I change the channel or mute it whenever a drug commercial comes on. I can't stand them. I have not seen any Ralley commericals, but Hardee's commercials made me ill even before going gluten-free. The food just always looks greasy and gross to me.

Jack in the Box here. Their food was greasy and gross to start with, and half the time I went there I got sick. I always hated Jack and his big ugly white head. Now I know I can't eat a single thing on their menu because it all has wheat, even the fries, and the commercials totally gross me out.

Burger King commercials! Well, Burger King in general grosses me out. But those commercials where they show the guy dressed up as the king in that weird looking mask scaring the crap out of people..that is the commercial nightmares are made of.

In our student days I used to live over the back of a Jack-in-the-Box (before they had proper filtration :unsure: ) Could not bear to open my kitchen window for fear of baarfing :P

See, I didn't like that stuph etuff even then.

It's not so much visually repulsive but it assaults my nose. And that's freshly made ice cream cones. They were doing them in one ice cream shop we visited. I got to watch.

The pet store we used to frequent was located next to an ice cream shop and the sickly sweet scent of the cones was constantly wafting in. Luckily the pet store moved to a larger location. We haven't been in yet but it has to be more pleasant!

My curtains are drawn and all I can hear is an eerie rendition of a children's bedtime song. I forget the name but it's very common - not rock a bye baby. The music is moving slowly down the block and around the corner. I know full well it's the icecream truck but all I can think is "Mobile Gluten Roulette Wheel" with creepy horror movie music and the scariest clown ever sticking out of the front. I'd like to hide under the table like I did as a child when there was a bear wandering around in my backyard.

Well, I can honestly say I have never ate at a Jack in the Box, but I love the comercials. Mostly because I found the big white head funny. My favorite commercials are the Christmas ones with all the Jack balls coming from everywhere. For the longest time my husband had his mom get us the Jack balls for the car antenae. Darn, my last one is about to go into file 13. :lol: I don't really have any commercial that grosses me out, but I do find the prepackaged bread isle repulsive. However I still do think the local bakery smells good. :o

I hate the all of the DQ commercials with the annoying talking lips bragging about all that fried food. The worst one is the when he gets showered in gravy. Ugh, makes me want to hurl!

that Burger King dude absolutely scares me to death! I can't STAND that guy.

Seriously, I never went back to Burger King after they started showing that guy.

I don't know who came up with that marketing idea.

I have a new one to add to this list. Denny's has a "Fried Cheese Melt". Just looking at the picture makes me want to run loose my lunch: fried cheese sticks smothered in American cheese, between two pieces of toast and served w/ fries. *urp*

I saw that today in a article about the 5 unhealthiest new restaurant offerings. It has more calories in that one sandwich than I eat in a whole day!!!! Another in that same article was a huge hamburger with 2!!!! grilled cheese sandwiches instead of a bun. Pity to think there may be people seeing that article and rushing to the restaurants to actually order those monstrosities.

I thought that was a commercial for Yoplait Yogurt... :blink: I don't think I saw the one for the whole grains.

      Celiac support is hard to find

      EDIT: I did find a monthly Zoom meeting for Celiacs through the Celiac Disease Foundation, so I'll be able to talk with some other people on January 15. And I also found a Celiac Living podcast on Spotify made by a celiac. I feel a little bit better now and I am still hoping I will find some more personal connections in my area.

      I have been feeling so lonely in this celiac disease journey (which I've only been on for over 4 months). I have one friend who is celiac, and she has been a great help to me. I got diagnosed at the beginning of October 2025, so I got hit with all the major food holidays. I think I navigated them well, but I did make a couple mistakes along the way regarding...

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @mamaof7! It means for the one celiac disease antibody test that was ordered, she tested negative. However, other tests should have been ordered, especially for someone so young who would have an immature immune system where there would be a high probability of being IGA deficient.  The one test that was ordered was an IGA-based antibody test. It is not the only IGA antibody test for celiac disease that can be run. The most common one ordered by physicians is the TTG-IGA. Whenever IGA antibody tests are ordered, a "total IGA" test should be included to check for IGA deficiency. In the case of IGA deficiency, all other IGA tests results will be inaccurate. There is another category of celiac disease antibody tests that can be used in the case of IGA deficiency. They are known as IGG tests. I will attach an article that gives an overview of celiac disease antibody tests. All this to say, I would not trust the results of the testing you have had done and I would not rule out your daughter having celiac disease. I would seek further testing at some point but it would require your daughter to have been eating normal amounts of gluten for weeks/months in order for the testing to be valid. It is also possible she does not have celiac disease (aka, "gluten intolerance") but that she has NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity, or just "gluten sensitivity" for short) which is more common. The difference is that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the lining of the small bowel whereas NCGS does not autoimmune in nature and does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though the two conditions share many of the same symptoms. We have testing to diagnose celiac disease but there are no tests for NCGS. To arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS, celiac disease must first be ruled out. A gluten free diet is the solution to both maladies.

Ultrasound was normal. Dr ordered celiac blood test. We took her off gluten after blood draw. She is sleeping better, no longer bloated and stools are still off color but not painful.    "GLIADIN (DEAMID) AB, IGA FLU Value  0.84 Reference Range: 0.00-4.99 No further celiac disease serology testing to be performed. INTERPRETIVE INFORMATION: Deamidated Gliadin Peptide (DGP) Ab, IgA A positive deamidated gliadin (DGP) IgA antibody result is associated with celiac disease but is not to be used as an initial screening test due to its low specificity and only occasional positivity in celiac disease patients who are negative for tissue transglutaminase (tTG) IgA antibody."   Anyone know what in the world this means. She isn't scheduled to see GI until late April.

      Hi Trent and Cristiana, thank you so much for taking the time out to reply to me.  My daughters GP requested bloods, they came back as showing a possibility of celiac disease, she advised me to continue feeding gluten as normal and wait on a hospital appointment. When we got that the doctor was quite annoyed that the gp hadn’t advised to go gluten free immediately as she explained that her numbers were so high that celiac disease was fairly evident. That doctor advised to switch to a gluten-free diet immediately which we did but she also got her bloods taken again that day as it made sense to double check considering she was maintaining a normal diet and they came back with a result of 128. The hospital doctor was so confident of celiac disease that she didn’t bother with any further testing. Cristiana, thank you for the information on the coeliac UK site however I am in the Rrpublic of Ireland so I’ll have to try to link in with supports there. I appreciate your replies I guess I’ll figure things as we go I just feel so bad for her, her skin is so sore around her mouth  and it looks bad at an age when looks are becoming important. Also her anxiety is affecting her sleep so I may have to look into some kind of therapy to help as I don’t think I am enough to help. thanks once again, it’s great to be able to reach out xx

I got diagnosed at the beginning of October 2025, so I got hit with all the major food holidays. I think I navigated them well, but I did make a couple mistakes along the way regarding CC. I have been Googling "celiac support groups" for the last couple days and there is nothing in the Northern Illinois area. I might reach out to my GI and dietician, who are through NW Medicine, to see if there are any groups near me. I cannot join any social media groups because I deleted my FB and IG last year and I have no desire to have them back (although I almost made a FB because I'm desperate to connect with more celiacs). I'm glad I have this forum. I am praying God will lead me to more people to relate to. In my opinion, celiac disease is like the only food- related autoimmune disease and it's so isolating. Thanks for walking alongside of me! I'm glad I know how to help my body but it's still not easy to deal with.
