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.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      Hello all! My life in the last five years has been crazy. I got married in 2020 at the age of 27, pregnant with our first child almost two months later, gave birth in 2021. We had another baby in April of 2023 and our last baby this March of 2025. I had some issues after my second but nothing ever made me think, "I should see a doctor about this." After...

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      On the AIP diet, all processed foods are eliminated. This includes gluten-free bread. You'll be eating meats and vegetables, mostly. Meats that are processed, like sausages, sandwich meats, bacons, chicken nuggets, etc., are eliminated as well. Veggies should be fresh, or frozen without other ingredients like sauces or seasonings. Nightshade vegetables...

      Thank you for responding and for prayers. So sorry for your struggles, I will keep you in mine. You are so young to have so many struggles, mine are mild by comparison. I didn't have Celiac Disease (celiac disease) until I had my gallbladder removed 13 years ago; at least nothing I was aware of. Following surgery: multiple symptoms/oddities appeared including...

      When I accidentally consume gluten it compromises the well-being of my heart and arteries. Last time I had a significant exposure, about six months ago, I had AFib for about ten days. It came on every day around dinner time. After the ten days or so it went away and hasn't come back. My cardiologist offered me a collection of pharmaceuticals at the time...

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      By tiffanygosci · Posted

      Hello all! My life in the last five years has been crazy. I got married in 2020 at the age of 27, pregnant with our first child almost two months later, gave birth in 2021. We had another baby in April of 2023 and our last baby this March of 2025. I had some issues after my second but nothing ever made me think, "I should see a doctor about this." After having my last baby this year, my body has finally started to find its new rhythm and balance...but things started to feel out of sorts. A lot of symptoms were convoluted with postpartum symptoms, and, to top it all off, my cycle came back about 4m postpartum. I was having reoccurring migraines, nausea, joint pain, numbness in my right arm, hand and fingers, tummy problems, hives. I finally went to my PCP in August just for a wellness check and I brought up my ailments. I'm so thankful for a doctor that listens and is thorough. He ended up running a food allergy panel, an environmental respiratory panel, and a celiac panel. I found out I was allergic to wheat, allergic to about every plant and dust mites, and I did have celiac. I had an endoscopy done on October 3 and my results confirmed celiac in the early stages! I am truly blessed to have an answer to my issues. When I eat gluten, my brain feels like it's on fire and like someone is squeezing it. I can't think straight and I zone out easily. My eyes can't focus. I get a super bad migraine and nausea. I get so tired and irritable and anxious. My body hurts sometimes and my gut gets bloated, gassy, constipated, and ends with bowel movements. All this time I thought I was just having mom brain or feeling the effects of postpartum, sleep deprivation, and the like (which I probably was having and the celiac disease just ramped it up!) I have yet to see a dietician but I've already been eating and shopping gluten-free. My husband and I have been working on turning our kitchen 100% gluten-free (we didn't think this would be so expensive but he assured me that my health is worth all the money in the world). There are still a few things to replace and clean. I'm already getting tired of reading labels. I even replaced some of my personal hygiene care for myself and the kids because they were either made with oats or not labeled gluten-free. I have already started feeling better but have made some mistakes along the way or have gotten contamination thrown into the mix. It's been hard! Today I joked that I got diagnosed at the worst time of the year with all the holidays coming up. I will just need to bring my own food to have and to share. It will be okay but different after years of eating "normally". Today I ordered in person at Chipotle and was trying not to feel self-conscious as the line got long because they were following food-allergy protocols. It's all worth it to be the healthiest version of myself for me and my family. I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little overwhelmed and a little overloaded!  I am thankful for this community and I look forward to learning more from you all. I need the help, that's for sure!

      Thank you for responding and for prayers.  So sorry for your struggles, I will keep you in mine.  You are so young to have so many struggles, mine are mild by comparison.  I didn't have Celiac Disease (celiac disease) until I had my gallbladder removed 13 years ago; at least nothing I was aware of.  Following surgery: multiple symptoms/oddities appeared including ridges on fingernails, eczema, hair falling out in patches, dry eyes, upset stomach constantly and other weird symptoms that I don't really remember.  Gastro did tests and endoscopy and verified celiac disease. Re heart: I was born with Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP) and an irregular heartbeat, yet heart was extremely strong.  It was difficult to pick up the irregular heartbeat on the EKG per cardiologist.  I had Covid at 77, recovered in 10 days and 2 weeks later developed long Covid. What the doctors and nurses called the "kickoff to long Covid, was A-fib.  I didn't know what was going on with my heart and had ignored early symptoms as some kind of passing aftereffect stemming from Covid.  I was right about where it came from, but wrong on it being "passing".  I have A-fib as my permanent reminder of Covid and take Flecainide every morning and night and will for the rest of my life to stabilize my heartbeat.
