So Good! Cottage Cafe In Florida

I just got back from a Carnival Cruise (I don't know if it was just an utter screw up on their part or if it's an overall problem, but I couldn't seem to pin anyone down to help me sort gluten free! Ugh) Anyway, after living on fruits with skins and the odd slice of meat when I was feeling daring, I was jonesing for ANY complex foods by the time we hit florida.

A little googling took my to a tiny little blue cottage called So Good! Cottage Cafe (which is just one street over from the crazy cuteness of cocoa village). They are AMAZING. They can do gluten-free off the regular menu, they have a different menu that is entirely gluten and cc free AND they have amazing desserts, which they get from a local woman who makes some super delicious gluten-free treats.

So after I'd had my fill of food, the most touching part of the entire experience was yet to come. The lady who makes their desserts ran over to the cafe with gluten-free treats for me to take back onto the cruise to tide me over. She came with cookies and a cake (which were both fantastic and neither made it more than a couple of days!)

I feel like I just found a little pocket of yummy heaven. It's so tough to find places that take cc into account and know exactly what to do without you having to read a label or ask a question, so I thought I should share for anyone who's in the area who wants some yummy and worry free food!

Happy New Year Everybody!

I'm glad you found such a gem in the cafe!

However, that's unfortunate news about Carnival. I think there are several good reviews for them on here....

What ship were you on?

We were on the Pride. I'd read the reviews before I left actually. Otherwise I would have packed more snacks! =) It might just have been a fluke. I really hope so! =S

      REESE'S PLANT BASED PEANUTBUTTER CUPS

      By R. M. LOMBARDO · Posted

      Reese's Plant Based PeanutButter Cups are made with non-Gluten Free Oats and only states on the package Dairy Free.  Is it safe for Celiacs or those with Gluten Intolerance issues to consume?  I think Mars is taking a small step in the right direction concerning food allergies and wish they were Gluten Free.

      Abscesses on legs

      By Liquid lunch · Posted

      I had these for years, covered in scars from them. Not had any since I started taking reishi and cordyceps tincture, they’re immune modulators, I think that’s how they work. Most of my other symptoms have also disappeared, I take a treble dose if I get glutened and it’s almost an instant fix, 3 days of mild symptoms instead of 3 weeks of horrible. Might be worth a try, don’t be put off by the caterpillars, I think they’ve found a different way of growing them now.

      Abscesses on legs

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @LookingForAnswers101, I had similar experiences with boil outbreaks in the same areas.  Mine was caused by Candida Albicans and eating a diet too high in sugar and simple carbohydrates.   Candida is a yeast infection, so the antibacterial wash is not going to help.  I had to change my diet to a Paleo diet before it went away.  If I consume high levels of sugar or other simple carbohydrates (rice, corn, dairy, etc.), boils would occur at pressure points like the groin and back of the legs.  Your doctor might be able to prescribe an antifungal medication, but some of those antifungal medications destroy thiamine.  Thiamine is needed to keep fungal and bacterial infections in check.  I took Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine, but TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) will work, too.   Thiamine, and the other B vitamins, especially Niacin and Biotin, along with Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and Vitamin D will help keep skin healthy.  Be sure to address these nutritional deficiencies that occur with Celiac! Ask your doctor to rule out autoimmune hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) and Human Papilloma virus, too.   Hang in there!  You'll get over this rocky patch of the journey!  Best wishes! P. S.  Get checked for Type Two Diabetes as well.  Candida, type two diabetes and a high carbohydrate diet often go together.  A Paleo diet really helps me with my Type Two Diabetes and Candida overgrowth.

      Gluten Free Beer - The Enzymatic Hydrolyzation Process Problem

      As I mentioned, gluten intolerance encompasses more than just those with celiac disease, and in the past was used more like the term "gluten sensitivity" is used today.
