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.

:lol::lol: That cracked me up! I recently lived in Texas and those commercials were on all the time! That head is freaky.

kareng Grand Master

Yeah! The BK king and the pop up clown. Shudder... Could make a horror movie. And the food has never been good, ever.

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.

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

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again
