When I first started, there were so many times that I thought I was strictly gluten-free and I found out that I wasn't, over and over again. Things that I never would have thought of, like shampoo... Or ingredients that I didn't realize were gluten. There is also cross-contamination. Products that have no gluten listed, or dishes ordered in restaurants that...

Me too, Me too, Me too!!! Thank you so much for doing this, you are great! lgranott@yahoo.com Thanks again, Liatt

Jen-- I have been gluten-free for about 3 months, maybe more. I stopped eating wheat in Dec and slowly started avoiding gluten, since the wheat free diet didn't help. Around 3 months ago i stopped eating gluten. Every once in a while I find something that I didn't think to look at, like shampoo, but that happens very rarely at this point. At those times...

It has been over a week (7-10) since I stupidly had gluten, but not just a tiny bit. So I knew that it would be bad... I understand all the digestive consequences (when will that stop?) but the fatigue? Is it related? I am getting more sleep right now, b/c I have to, and even taking short naps, which is unlike me. I CAN'T keep my eyes open and can't do the...

Hey celiac3270-- I just saw this and would love an unzipped copy as well. My email address is lgranott@yahoo.com You should charge Thank you so much Liatt

Claire--I am in the same boat:) I haven't found any cookbooks either, but I also modify. I have been a vegeterian since 1994 and don't want to go back b/c of gluten-free and dairy free eating... Makes it hard, but its manageable:) I'll let you know if I find anything good. liatt

I know I'm not "anyone else" but as far as I understand (by everything I am told and everything that I have read) their oats are processed in a plant w/o wheat, so there is no gluten in mccanns.

YAY!!!!! As I was sitting here drinking diet coke, I remembered something I read about caramel color and nearly had a heart attack . First thought was that I had possibly been accidentally glutened while I thought I was gluten-free and the next thought was that if diet coke wasn't gluten-free that would be the final straw... --vegeterian by choice...

So if it had MFS and it is not made by kraft, or any other safe companies, you should call the company? And what? Ask them if the product is gluten-free? Or a more specific question? Thanks--Liatt

Jnkmnky-- I eat them (mccanns) as do 2 of my friends daughters, both celiac disease, and none of us react... That being said, if you do react to avenin, it doesn't matter that we apparently do not:( I didn't know about avenin when I first found out that mccanns is gluten-free, so I just ate it w/o worrying. Luckily I was fine. Don't know if I would have...

I certainly spent years having those types of emergency moments (never had anyone to admit them to, as I am rather shy about things like this)... Car over-heated once, in the middle of nowhere and actually had to use a bag--how disgusting and embarassing I would laugh, but since I am dealing with a pretty bad reaction it would hurt. Bseides the fact...

I am sooo glad I found this sight... I wonder what took me so long. Up until now, the only celiac person in my life was a friend who's daughter was diagnosed 1 1/2 years ago... Not the same. I don't mind "most" of the questions/comments. I have found that most people are really just curious and want to understand. Although every once in a while I get...

:0 thanks, I definately don't need any laxatives... Liatt

Thanks! Who knew... I also read that Maltitol was safe... So why has everyone told me that it isn't? This board is soooo helpful, I'm soooo glad I foudn it. Liatt
