Pizza. Sandwiches. Eating cheese ... I miss cheese so badly I could cry.

you're so disciplined!i just cant break my cheese addiction... not on top of the gluten too... at least not yet. i am a very addictive person.. always dying for more seratonin... and i must conquer the ciggs next (for a 2nd time)... then maybe i can think about the cheese.. :(

i also have to get off all the frozen coffee drinks :(

A croissant. A tortilla that actually rolls.

I have a breadmaker and I can make good fresh bread, but mine doesn't make the French bread crust right even with wheat. I loved the fresh baked baguettes in France, and I'm after the real deal. Long, thin bread, with a chewy, shiny crust and that fluffy, holey inside that's so soft it's hard to even butter. Even if I do a French style bread with wheat in my bread machine, the shape of the loaf is all wrong so you don't get all the crust. I used to make passable baguettes by setting up the dough in the bread machine and then baking in my oven with a pan of water at 450F for steam. I've played with gluten-free flours a bit but the texture of gluten-free baguettes I've made don't come close to the real thing.

Cool , which bread mix do you use ? I used Juvela mix Open Original Shared Link and that made the fluffy bread. It wasn't long thin bread but it was definitely fluffy and the crust was kinda similar , it had a lot more crust than the previous bread mixes I have used. It sounds like it is difficult to make it perfectly. For me I don't mind what the bread or food looks like I just want it to taste nice :D lol That is how I remember the taste of french bread to be.

Right now, I'm wanting Totino's Pizza. Definitely not worth a cheat, but back in the day I could eat a whole one in one sitting.

I will always and forever miss E.L. Fudge cookies. <sigh> Sometimes I miss Fig Newtons, but I've found a gluten-free recipe that suffices when I'm craving those.

I miss quiche. I want it so much sometimes. The pie crust I can make without a problem. The cream can be subbed with mimicreme. But the cheese...I don't tolerate soy or, for whatever reason, the other non-dairy cheeses (Rice Vegan, Daiya, etc.). That's sad, because Daiya tastes wonderful.

Pretty much everything that I get a hankering for I've been able to figure a safe alternative for--sweet and sour chicken, onion rings, coconut shrimp, samosas, profiteroles, etc. I found a recipe for a cashew-based "ricotta" the other day. I'm going to try gluten-free lasagna with this "cheese" next time I get that craving. Maybe it would be good on pizza, too. Or straight out of the bowl. ph34r.gif Maybe it would work in quiche. lol Never know 'til ya try!

The only thing I crave that I can't find a gluten free version of is phyllo. I would love to scarf down a whole package of raspberry turnovers or a sheet of baklava.

A tortilla that actually rolls.

I've been gluten free long enough to know I can find or make most anything I miss from my pre-gluten free days. Donuts, french bread, pizza, croissants, pasta. Just tonight I made Tiramisu.

But phyllo dough, I'm with you Ravenwoodglass. Can't find a replacement---yet.

A tortilla that actually rolls, yea RideAllWays, that too. French Meadow Bakery has it almost.

I do miss Campbell's Cream of Shrimp soup. Well I miss the dip I use to make with it. But haven't missed it enough to figure out a recipe.

None of what I miss is tempting enough to eat something with gluten.

What kids of dumplings do you like? If it's not the big fluffy ones...I have a good recipe. It's for egg noodles, but made a little thicker, they are like the chicken and dumplings I made before being gluten-free. (If it's the big fluffy ones...I thought I saw a recipe...let me keep looking in my cookbooks)

Wow, the egg noodle-y type sound great. That is the kind we like and I would love the recipe.

Vegemite! On a crusty multi-grain baguette, or just multi-grain sandwich bread.

There is a gluten free substitute, 'MightyMite', but it tastes nothing at all like the real thing.

(Obviously, I'm Australian!)

      Is "Shield" skincare products gluten-free?

      By LynnM · Posted

      Thank you Scott. My son doesn't have a reaction topically, only when ingested. Interestingly though, the doc told us the face cream getting gluten into his bloodstream doesn't do the damage akin to when gluten is ingested. He had no reaction when using the face cream, it only presented in blood-work. I'm hopeful from all the comments today and will wait for the GI doc to reply. If he is cleared to use it, I will encourage SHIELD to get a gluten-free certification

      Is "Shield" skincare products gluten-free?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It’s great that you’re taking the time to research products carefully for your son with celiac disease—especially since accidental gluten exposure through skincare can be a real concern for sensitive individuals. Based on the ingredient lists you’ve shared, none of the products appear to contain obvious sources of gluten like wheat, barley, or rye derivatives. Ingredients like glycerin and tocopherols (not listed here but often a concern) can sometimes be derived from wheat, but many manufacturers use plant-based or synthetic sources. SHIELD’s transparency and willingness to share their full ingredient list is a good sign, and their note about not intentionally adding gluten is reassuring. Still, because ingredient sourcing can vary and sensitivities differ from person to person, it’s wise that you’ve reached out to your GI specialist to be sure these products are safe for your son’s specific needs. In the meantime, if you do try any of the products, consider patch-testing them first and watching closely for any signs of skin irritation or reactions. PS - Most people with celiac disease won't react to skin products that may contain gluten, but I still recommend finding gluten-free products.

      Greetings Trents and Scott. This is the first time I'm posting here so I apologize in advance if I'm not replying properly. My 13 YO was diagnosed at age 5 and once gluten was removed from his diet, he grew 3" in a year, skin became much better and dark circles around his eyes disappeared. Today his numbers were very high and our new dietician discovered his face cream (Clinique dramatically different lotion) contained gluten. My fault for not checking.    His acne really has only just started and he's using OCT gluten-free products but the SHIELD is nothing short of miraculous for my 16 YO son and the 13 YO is eager to start. I will await his dietician's reply or google each ingredient.    I don't want to put him on that Rx as it's not that bad and isn't painful either. Just a boy starting 8th grade and doesn't want bad acne.    When I hear back I will circle back.

      That happened to me as well @trents! I always wondered it that regimen caused my celiac disease!

      I see nothing in the ingredient list that concerns me from a gluten intolerant perspective. Historically, how has your 13 yr. old been treated for his acne? When I was a teenager I had acne issues (this was in the 1960s) and was put on a long term regimin of tetracycline. It helped the acne but I am convinced it altered my gut microbiome and contributed to the development of celiac disease.
