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. :)

That's easy... Cheese-stuffed Crust Pizza Hut Pizza. Darn you for making me drool about this. Now I have to go make my own pizza for dinner. :rolleyes:

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

Anything with phyllo dough.

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.

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      @Aretaeus Cappadocia and @Russ H thank you both for your helpful advice and information. I haven't seen a GI in years. They never helped me aside from my inital diagnosis. All other help has come from my own research, which is why I came here. I will be even more careful in the future.

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      @Russ H, I partly agree and partly disagree with you. After looking at it again, I would say that the slick graphic I posted overestimates the risk. Your math is solid, although I find estimates of gluten in white bread at 10-12% rather than the 8% you use. Somewhat contradicting what I wrote before, I agree with you that it would be difficult to ingest ...

The bird-bread may or may not be contributing to what you are experiencing, but it seems unlikely to be the whole story. If you have access to decent healthcare, I would write down your experiences and questions in outline form and bring this to your Dr. I suggest writing it down so you don't get distracted from telling the Dr everything you want to say while you have their attention.

      @Russ H, I partly agree and partly disagree with you. After looking at it again, I would say that the slick graphic I posted overestimates the risk. Your math is solid, although I find estimates of gluten in white bread at 10-12% rather than the 8% you use. Somewhat contradicting what I wrote before, I agree with you that it would be difficult to ingest 10 mg from flinging bread.  However, I would still suggest that @nancydrewandtheceliacclue take precautions against exposure in this activity. I'm not an expert, I could easily be wrong, but if someone is experiencing symptoms and has a known exposure route, it's possible that they are susceptible to less than 10 mg / day, or it is possible that there is/are other undetected sources of exposure that together with this one are causing problems. At any rate, I would want to eliminate any exposure until symptoms are under control before I started testing the safety of potentially risky activities. Here is another representation of what 10 mg of bread would look like. https://www.glutenfreewatchdog.org/news/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/10mgGlutenCrumbsJules.jpg Full article that image came from: https://www.glutenfreewatchdog.org/news/what-does-10-mg-of-gluten-look-like/

      @Aretaeus Cappadocia thank you for your reply and the link, that is very helpful to get a visual of just how small of an amount can cause a reaction. I know I am not consuming gluten or coming into contact with gluten from any other source. I will stop touching/tossing bread outside! My diet has not changed, and I do not have reactions to the things I am currently eating, which are few in number. My auto immune reaction just seems so severe. The abdominal pain is extreme. It takes a lot out of me. I guess I will be this way for the rest of my life if I ever happen to come into contact with gluten? I appreciate the help.
