It's getting to be that time again, and this will be my first year at the fair gluten free.

I've read all the back-posts and all the info I could find via Google, and I know that Northland Celiacs put out a list (which will be my first stop) of gluten free options. I'm also aware that the corn is safe, but I can't just eat corn all day :)

- well I could, but I'd rather not.

What I'm wondering is what have people actually tried and not gotten cc'd from? I'm having trouble believeing that getting footlong w/out the but wouldn't result in a bunch of problems.

Also does anyone know if the fresh cut french fries are safe? They don't seem to show up on any of the lists. That's all they do there so I would think they're ok, but you never know.

Thank you!

I'm hoping more people respond to this one. We're headed to the MN State Fair next weekend with our newly diagnosed 9-yr-old (who LOVES the corn, but I'm hoping there's more).

Does Northland Celiacs have a booth at the Fair? Or is the list on-line somewhere?

I'm one of the biggest fair fans you'll ever meet, but this is my first year going gluten-free :( I'm hoping people will report back here, too.

I got nervous about my gluten-free fair experience, so I used Northland Celiac's 2012 list to make a google map of all the gluten-free fair food. I intend to update it as I go through the fair if I find anything else that belongs on it:

Northland Celiac does have a booth, in the Kare11 Health Building. They usually put their list online before the fair (as far as I know it isn't up yet). I think they also keep copies at the booth.

Hello! This is my 3rd Minnesota State Fair being Gluten Free, though I missed last year. I have never gotten CC'ed, but never chose the options where it seemed likely to have that happen. There are gluten free (Udi's bun and all!!!) Chicago Style or State Fair Style Hot Dogs this year!!! And some gluten free Risotto Poppers! Yum! I cannot wait to try them. I stick to some kind of pickle thing...it's a pickle wrapped with cheese and prusciutto (sp?) or ham or something. I forget where it is...the building has a giant pickle on it haha. There is always the corn! And the milk stand lol. The northland celiacs site is where I have always gotten all my info, but haven't gotten to it yet. Good luck and have fun!!!

Yes! And if you stop by the booth and talk to them, in the past anyway, they have a wheel to spin for some coupons! And they generally hand out coupons any way I think. I had forgotten about it, so thanks for posting this!

Here's a map of all the foods on the Northland Celiac list, plus any that I am able to independently track down:

      Burning sensation when I wake up

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I forgot to mention that exercise also triggers it, except for the period right before I tried the gluten challenge where I could do moderately intense workouts without getting this burning sensation and extreme fatigue for days afterwards.

      Burning sensation when I wake up

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am 30 years old, female, and have Hashimoto's thyroiditis and suspected celiac disease (wasn't able to complete a gluten challenge, but have the symptoms and HLA-DQ8) or at least some kind of gluten sensitivity. When I first got diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, I went on AIP and never reintroduced gluten. Whenever I would eat a little bit of gluten I would wake up feeling very old, achy, and unrested, with a burning sensation everywhere especially on my hip bones and chest area. It felt like severe inflammation. This would also happen during stressful times and times where I hadn't been sleeping well.  This symptom had decreased in intensity and completely gone away before I tried to do a gluten challenge over a month ago. Now it is back and I have it every day when I wake up. It usually goes away or decreases in intensity after a few hours of being awake. Is this inflammation or something else, and is it related to Hashimoto's thyroiditis or celiac (or gluten sensitivity) or both? Could it be related to not moving for long periods of time (as is the case when I am sleeping)? I was also extremely sensitive to all foods when I first started AIP about 3 or 4 years ago, but with time, I could tolerate more foods and even gluten in small amounts occasionally. Now my stomach is super sensitive, I am afraid to eat again, and my stools are abnormal. Thank you.

      Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @MagsM Did your doctor do the DGP IgG and DGP IgA tests or the tTg IgG test.  It looks like he just tested total IgG.   Were you taking any medications or over the counter stuff before the test?  Some can suppress the immune system and cause false negatives.
