For me, today, I would LOVE some good ole cheese n crackers! Ritz roasted veggie and colby/montereyjack.

Cheese by itself (which is how I now eat it) just isn't the same.

I don't normally crave anything but lately for some reason I would love a big coffee roll from Dunkin Donuts! They're huge--like a glazed donut/cinnamon roll combination. <drool>

Aphreal, have you tried the Glutino Crackers? Not identical to Ritz, but very good with cheese. :)

Ah, to be able to order a beer in a restaurant or bar. I can have gluten-free beer at home, but no bars carry it. I can have a mixed drink or wine, but I love beer!

There's really not much I miss, but the one thing I have yet to find a gluten free replacement for is Triscuits.

I agree that Glutino is a pretty close substitute for Ritz. They're pretty good crumbled over broccoli casserole too. :)

Lately I've been craving a big fat restaurant cheeseburger with a toasted (wheat) bun and steak fries. :P

Also my mother in law made apple dumplings the other day and sat beside me and proceeded to ooooh and ahhhh over them. <_< The smell was killing me and I wanted to snap her neck! lol!

The ease of walking into a restaraunt and ordering ANYTHING without having to worry about getting sick. I don't miss much in the way of food (pizza excluded), but the convenience is what gets me. OK, but if I had to pick, Pizza Hut deep dish pizza.

This, exactly. Oh- and I'd love a slice of pepperoni pizza from the little pizzeria down the street from my house. They always managed to brown the cheese just right.

Absolutely everything that contains gluten. Don't even know where I start and probably would never stop.

What's left of the Suddenly Salad (ranch & Bacon flavor) I had to make my hubby for lunch today... that stuff just smells so yummy when it's all mixed together.

And since I have to go to a meeeting this evening, along the lines of what others have said, I wouldn't mind being able to stop at ANY fast food place & know I could pick up something that was safe for me to eat. HAve to get DH Taco Bell on the way there...

Are you anywhere near a Five Guys restaurant? They only do fries in their fryers so those are safe, and you could bring your own bun and have them make you a bunless cheeseburger. In fact, now I'm wanting a burger and fries and a Five Guys trip is sounding like a good idea. :D

Kindred spirits I see!!! I have not tried glutino crackers (have tried others) but now that I have a word on that brand I am gunna.

Ok back to reality my non-glutard friends. I made gluten-free chicken afredo tonight and all is right with the world. Heartland pasta is very good and SO much cheaper than the other gluten-free brands.

My mom's home made whole wheat bread. I could eat a whole loaf as fast she could get it out of the oven. She always made several at once.

Or her home made cinnamon rolls.

Or her chicken noodle soup, hand rolled noodles of course.

Or her tuna cassarole.

Or her lemon meringue or butterscotch pies Wow, she could have won contests with them.

Nobody cooks like my mom did.

Except her mom, (Millie) she was a hot cook too.

If you all tasted my mom's cooking, you would have all been saying that was your favorite food. I feel sorry for ya'll.

Course, with 8 of us to grab the food you had to be pretty quick on the draw too.

Chocolate!! I am very sensitive and haven't found one I can tolerate yet, though I can tolerate cocoa nibs, washed and roasted. It is just not the same.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      Thank you both so much!

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Bev in Milw · Posted

      Reading labels at dailymed.com is simpler if you’re familiar w/ gluten-free list of inert ingredients (aka ‘excipients’  allowed by FDA.      www.gluten-free.com has that list & I’ve included It’s below…. Tricky ones for me are the “4 D’s“ because names are similar. These 2 are gluten-free by ‘legal’ definition— •Dextrans - Partially hydrolyzed corn or potato starch. •Dextrose - Powdered corn starch. Other 2 need to be questioned. (Maybe ok for isolated 7-10 day Rx,   antibiotic?,  but gluten-free status needs to be verified for long term / daily use for chronic condition, like thyroid or BP meds.)   These are : •Dextrates - Mix of sugars resulting from the controlled enzymatic hydrolysis of starch. •Dextrins - Result from the hydrolysis of starch by heat or hydrochloric acid (from corn).  It can also be obtained from wheat, rice or tapioca.  (Maltodextrin on US labels MUST be corn so gluten-free.) Technically, ‘Starch’ on USDA ‘food’ labels in US must be from corn, & if not, the source must be identified.   In drugs,‘ Pregelatinized starch’ & ‘Sodium starch glycolate’ can also be from potato, rice, OR wheat.  Wheat is more likely to be found in products made outside of US (Europe) where corn is not the major(readily available & least costly) crop.     Hope this helps even though  learning sources of some gluten-free ones may make them less appealing. (And while the “Read every label, every time” for gluten is a pain, I’ve learned there are worse things than celiac dx—Allergy to corn would be at top on my list!)          Bev in Milwaukee From www.gluten-free.com EXCIPIENT INGREDIENTS IN MEDICATIONS  Aspartame - An artificial sweetening agent derived from aspartic acid. Aspartic Acid - A crystalline amino acid found naturally in sugar beets and sugar cane.  Benzyl alcohol - Made synthetically from benzyl chloride which is derived from toluene (a tar oil). Cellulose - (ethylcellulose, methylcellulose, hydroxymethylcellulose, hydroxypropyl, microcrystalline) – Obtained from fibrous plant material (woody pulp or chemical cotton). Cetyl alcohol - Derived from a fat source (spermaceti, which is a waxy substance from the head of the sperm whale). Croscarmellose sodium - An internally cross-linked sodium carboxymethylcellulose for use as a disintegrant in pharmaceutical formulations.  Comes from wood pulp or cotton fibers to form carboxymethylcellulose.  It contains no sugar or starch. Dextrans - Partially hydrolyzed corn or potato starch. Dextrates - Mix of sugars resulting from the controlled enzymatic hydrolysis of starch. Dextrins - Result from the hydrolysis of starch by heat or hydrochloric acid (from corn).  It can also be obtained from wheat, rice or tapioca. Dextrose - Powdered corn starch. Fructose - Obtained naturally from fruits or honey; hydrolyzed cane or beet sugar. Gelatin - Obtained from the skin, white connective and bones of animals (by boiling skin, tendons, ligaments, bones, etc with water). Glycerin - Historically, glycerin (also known as glycerol), was made the following ways: -  Saponification (a type of chemical process) of fats and oils in the manufacturing of soaps -  Hydrolysis of fats and oils through pressure and superheated steam -  Fermentation of beet sugar molasses in the presence of large amounts of sodium sulfite   Today its is made mostly from propylene (a petroleum product) Glycerols - Obtained from fats and oils as byproducts in the manufacture of soaps and fatty acids (may also be listed as mono-glycerides or di-glycerides). Glycols - Products of ethylene oxide gas. Hypromellose – A brand of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (see cellulose). Iron oxide (rust) - Used as a coloring agent. Kaolin - A clay-like substance. Lactilol - Lactose derivative; a sugar alcohol. Lactose - Also known as milk sugar, is used in the pharmaceutical industry as a filler or binder for the manufacture of coated pills and tablets.   Commercially produced from cow's milk. Maltodextrins - A starch hydrolysate that is obtained from corn in the United States but can also be extracted from wheat, potato or rice. Mannitol - Derived from monosaccharides (glucose or mannose). Methyl Paraben – Comes from the combination of denatured wood alcohol and benzoic acid (benzoic acid occurs naturally in cherry bark, raspberries, tea, anise and cassia bark).  Polysorbates - Chemically altered sorbitol (a sugar alcohol). Polyvinyl alcohol – A water soluble synthetic alcohol (synthesized by hydrolysis of polyvinyl acetate). Povidone (crospovidone, copovidone) - synthetic polymers  Pregelatinized starch - A starch that has been chemically or mechanically processed.  The starch can come from corn, wheat, potato or tapioca. Shellac - A natural wax product used in tablet or capsule coating. Sodium lauryl sulfate – A derivative of the fatty acids of coconut oil. Sodium starch glycolate - Sodium salt of carboxymethyl ether of starch. Usually from potato but can be from corn, wheat or rice. Stearates (calcium, magnesium) - Derived from stearic acid (a fat; occurs as a glyceride in tallow and other animal fats and oils, as well as some vegetables; prepared synthetically by hydrogenation of cottonseed and other vegetable oils). Sucrose - Sugar also known as refined sugar, beet sugar or cane sugar. Titanium dioxide - Chemical not derived from any starch source used as a white pigment.  Triacetin – A derivative of glycerin (acetylation of glycerol). Silcon dioxide – A dispersing agent made from silicon.

      Celiac symptoms but negative endoscopy and antibody test + family history of gastro problems

      By NoriTori · Posted

      @Scott Adams  Sure, Any and all information is welcome. Also the only was to convince my family to get tested is to get tested myself and conclusive answers. Very stubborn lot.

      Understood. It's very anxiety-provoking when you don't know what you are dealing with and don't know if you are attacking it correctly.

      Blood results

      By Heatherisle · Posted

      I have heard of NCGS, but everything is just so confusing!!! Just unsure of things as her EMA test was negative but TTG was positive @19u/ml(lab range 0.0-7.0).Apparently she also has occasional bubble like blisters in between her fingers, don’t know if that’s significant. She is triallling gluten free as suggested by the gastroenterologist after her endoscopy. Keep getting different answers when typing in her symptoms etc. Some sites say it can be possible to have coeliac, even with a negative EMA . It’s so frustrating and her anxiety levels are through the roof. I know she’s hoping it’s coeliac which is weird I know!!! But if it’s not it just means more tests. Sorry to ramble on!!!
