    Not sure why the conclusion seemed to omit Xylitol from criticism.

    Not wholly sure what benefit there is to this kind of speculation. I also find it somewhat amusing that the author somehow grazed right past the rather well-known fact that Franklin was a lover of beer and ale and is reported to have been a home-brewer. Yard's Brewing, Philadelphia, even brews a modern iteration, based on Franklin's own recipe: Poor Richard...

    Both points of view are fine. Would I absolutely LOVE that Ms. Behar would find a way to adapt her recipe? Of course! But also, there are other gluten-free lasagne recipes that Essman can choose to prepare herself. Perhaps Essman could observe Behar while she makes her signature recipe (I wouldn't hold my breath, but that's the bridge I think should...

    Please teach us more about question #5.

    I was thinking the same thing. In fact, after nearly two years of upset stomach and other trickledown side-effects (c.2007), the sudden intense craving for beets one night while I was at work was what indicated to me that I was tending toward anemia and that I had an iron deficiency. This was when I became determined to find out what was wrong with...

    I mean... all that is assuming that their icecream machine is not broken or shut down for cleaning--which is MOST OF THE TIME, it seems.

    This article is like the label on a bottle of cheap wine: I know just as little as I did when I started reading. Ooof. Poor journalism.

    I can barely wrap my head around what "scooping out" could possibly mean! If they literally mean removing the "crumb" (not crust) portion of the bagel by scraping it out with a spoon... then YEAH, KICK THAT GUY OUT!

    Gluten and Glutamate are completely different "animals". Glutamate does not (necessarily) contain gluten. What's your point here?

    If you eat it and it causes you distress, then it's already too late @Wheatwacked. The whole point of food labeling is that you should not need to get sick to find out that something is detrimental to your health. I cannot even fathom that you posted this comment.

    I care. As do other gluten-free folks I know who wish to support companies that align with their values. That Celiac<dot>com offers this unbiased news is important to Celiacs who wish to make the right decisions for themselves and for their community.

    A point to note: Yuca is a root starch that is edible. Yucca is a wild and/or decorative plant native to subtropical climes that is not considered to be edible. The former (edible, root) plant is pronounced [YOO-kah]. Because these plants are not readily available enough to be considered "native", Americans confuse the terms, but they are not the...

    Great question. I came here to ask basically the same question--though, your verbiage is far better than I might've been able to muster!

    @Jefferson Adamsthis misconception needs to be corrected across all categories of distilled spirits that are not flavored after-the-fact. Also, the broader category of Asian-made spirits--specifically because of colloquial nomenclature--needs to have special attention paid so that all consumers (Celiac, or non-Celiac) are properly informed. I rarely...

    *sigh* While brandy is made from wine [eg. cognac, VSOP brandy] and/or the leftovers of making wine [also marc, grappa...], ALL BRANDY (as a category) IS DISTILLED and must, therefore, be categorized as SPIRIT. This very recently became a legal issue in Pennsylvania, where soju had been erroneously labeled as "wine"--due in no small part to...

    Kinda funny: I made basically this same thing for myself last week, a week before receiving the newsletter! However, I added chipped fresh apples to the mushroom gravy, accented with fresh greek oregano and coriander seed. Highly recommended! A point of caution with this recipe, as it's written: if using cornstarch, be sure to make a slurry first...

    These statements are somewhat contradictory. Just sayin'. Also, it amazes me that I never hear discussion of other allergens being screened in association with IBS. After extensive food-challenges starting in 2007 over the course of 24 months, I became 100% certain that Celiac disease was the culprit for me. However, about 5 yrs later, I began to...

    Does anyone know whether any of the other pizzas on the list are also nightshade-free besides Against the Grain Nut-free Pesto? For those who don't know, nightshades include: potatoes yams and sweet potatoes are not nightshades and are, therefore, safe tomatoes (all varieties, including tomatillos, ground cherries) often...

    Being just 3 hrs away, I've heard good things. But I've not had the opportunity to to travel since pre-CoViD. @Guest123, thx for the reminder!
  20. sc'Que?
    Very cool. But soooo curious what ANA would say to someone like me: both gluten-free and nightshade-free, out of necessity.
  21. sc'Que?
    Cattiness? No, more like trying to remind everyone that "Budweiser" (as a concept) does not equate to "beer" as a category. If there are 150 styles of beer, pale pilsner represents less than 1%. And the companies that produce gluten-free beer/s prey on the fact that most people don't realise that. There are other styles of beer that are more conducive...

    It is a my profession as a craft bartender to elevate the drinking experience--not to dumb it down! American macro-pilsners (on which most gluten-free beers are based) are not attempting to mimic the quality of pre-Prohibition beers: they're simply trying to make a buck from people who forgot what beer is supposed to taste like... and Celiacs are a super...

    @trents, you seemed to ignore that @Dina Wrightwas suggesting a (purportedly) 100%gluten-free beer. Dina, where have you found BrewDog here in the States?
  25. sc'Que?
    Always "amuses" me that when people say they miss beer that Celiacs recommend gluten-free "beer" that taste like clear-fizzy water (aka American pilsner)... or worse. Mass-produced, American light lager is the farthest from satisfying the beer craving for people who miss beer. Why can't Celiacs recommend gluten-free beers that have more flavor, more texture...
