Delicious New Snack

One of my co-workers presented me with Michael Season's Baked Cheddar Cheese Curls for Christmas, along with a couple of new SF DF chocolate bars & rice crackers as a holdiday gift.

I want to buy a truckload of those Cheese Curls! They are outrageously good, and awesome on top of soup! They taste good and have a good crunch, they're really, really good.

She left the receipt in the gift bag. They were $2.99 at Whole Foods. I've never seen them in my local stores.

yes, we love these but you can't just eat one!.. They have been around for a long while, they have chips too...If you like a bit of zing in a snack food try El's.. They remind me of the pub mix.. excellent too....

:DThey're so good I'm going to tell DP all I want for Christmas is Cheddar Cheese Curls by Michaels. (As I'm finishing off the bag from the present I was supposed to open on Christmas.)

Not a bad price at the A. store, either!

Our Whole Foods carries them, buy a case & save the 10%...I think they are also on the big river " A" store online...

OOH! OOH! Could you list the ingredients? My local healthfood store carries their potato chips. Maybe if there's no corn in these I could eat them. If so, I'll see if they can them in.

First ingredient is cornmeal-- SORRY!!!!!!

I had no problem with corn shortly after going gluten-free, then had a big problem with corn (and dairy) but for the moment I'm good to go on both. I hate challenges when they fail, but I waited a year to try corn, so I'm on a corn wagon. I bought 4 bags of them as we were passing through a city with a WF. If I'd read your post, I'd have bought a case of them!

mamaw Community Regular

Yes, it is the only way I buy gluten-free things by the case.It is about the only way to save big.....I try not to buy these buy the case because as I said you can't just eat one....Addictive....I get issues from to much corn once in awhile & I slack off for awhile... This happens alot in the summer months when fresh corn is available...

bartfull Rising Star

Wow. Do you really think it's possible I could go back to eating corn again someday? I have my doubts because it seems that I'm more sensitive to corn than any of my other "poisons". I even got sick from one of the new corn based plastic bottles. I'm at the point where I was laughing at myself last night - While reading the paper I noticed an ad that had a picture of corn on it, and without realizing I had done it, I moved my hand to the top of the page because I didn't want to TOUCH it! :blink::lol:

corn is an allergyso it is treatable... I just watch my intake of corn& soy but of course you may need to watch closer but yes allergies are treatable...I do the natural holistic appraoch for allergies but others go for allergy shots..

Marilyn R Community Regular

I didn't poke positive on allergy testing, but corn gave my digestive system a good whack and whammy after going gluten-free.

I waited a year to try corn again because I'm a wussy about being sick. Maybe I should have tried it earlier, but I'm not going to dwell on that.

I waited three years before I ate ice cream :ph34r:

I tried lemons after a year and no go. I am able to tolerate some potato starch in baked goods now - still not game to try potatoes. Will try some home-grown tomato this summer :huh:

Marilyn R Community Regular

Good luck with your tomato challenge this summer, Mushroom. If it's a go, that would add a world of good to your menu! I'm not big on fresh tomatos, but I love those little yellow pear shaped heirloom or nice sun ripened cherry tomatos.

      Marsh 3b is the Gold Standard of diagnosis for Celiac Disease.  Until recently, regardless of antibody tests, positive or negative, you had to have Marsh 3 damage to be awarded the diagnosis of Celiac. As I understand you,  you were having constant symptoms..  Your symptoms improved on GFD, with occassional flare ups. Did your doctor say you do and you are questioning the diagnosis? Regarding your increasing severity when you get glutened it is "normal.  Gluten acts on the Opiod receptors to numb your body.  Some report withdrawal symptoms on GFD.  I was an alcoholic for 30 years, about 1/2 pint of voda a day. Each time I identified a trigger and dealt with it, a new trigger would pop up.  Even a 30 day rehab stint, with a low fat diet (severe pancreatis) during which I rarely had cravings.  Stopped at a Wendys on the way home and the next day I was drinking again.  20 years later, sick as a dog, bedridden on Thanksgiving, after months of reasearch, I realized that gluten free was my Hail Mary.  Back in 1976 my son was diagnosed at weaning with Celiac Disease and his doctor suggested my wife and I should also be gluten free because it is genetic.  At 25 years old I felt no gastro problems and promised if I ever did I would try gluten free.  Well, I forgot that promise until I was 63.  Three days of gluten and alcohol free, I could no longer tolerate alcohol. Eleven years gluten and alcohol free, with no regrets. Improvement was quick, but always two steps forward and one back.  Over time I found nineteen symptoms that I had been living with for my entire life, that doctors had said, "We don't know why, but that is normal for some people". Celiac Disease causes multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  It is an autoimmune disease, meaning your immune system B and T cells create antibodies against ttg(2) the small intestin in Celiac Disease and sometimes ttg(3) in skin in Dermatitis Herpetiformus.  Why is poorly understood.  In fact, it wasn't even know that wheat, barley and rye gluten was the cause.  Celiac Disease was also called Infantilism, because it was deadly, and believed to only be a childhood disease. So as part of your symptoms you must deal with those deficiencies.  Especially vitamin D because it contols your immune system.  Virtually all newly diagnosed Celiacs have vitamin D deficiency.  There are about 30 vitamin and minerals that are absorbed in the small intestine.  With Marsh 3 damage you may be eating the amount everyone else does, but you are not absorbing them into your system, so you will display symptoms of their deficiency.   As time passes and you replenish your deficiencies you may notice other symptoms improve, some you did not even know were sypmptos. Our western diet has many deficiencies build into it.   That is the reason foods with gluten are fortified.  Gluten free processed food are not required to fortify.  Vitamin D, Iodine, choline.  The B vitamins, especially Thiamine (B1) run deficient quickly.  We only store enough thiamine for 2 weeks for symptoms can come on quickly.  Magnesium, zinc, etc. each having its own symptoms affecting multiple systems.  High homocystene, and indicator of vascular inflamation can be cause by deficient Choline, folate, B6 and or B12.  Brain fog, deficient choline, iodine, thiamine.

      I cut out the rice because it was affecting my stomach at the time ... not necessarily dermatitis herpetiformis. It was Tilda Basmati Rice, sometimes wholegrain rice. I was willing to do whatever it took to heal. Too much fiber also disagrees with me as I have UC.

      But you didn't answer my question. When you consume gluten, is there an identifiable reaction within a short period of time, say a few hours?

      You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not very common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/

      I am only wondering why you would need to cut out rice? I've never heard of rice being any issue in those with DH.
