Have fun!

If you are looking for restaurants and gluten free grocery items while you are there, you might want to check out Open Original Shared Link They have a nice list going of which restaurants they have spoken with about how to be gluten free and have arranged certain menu items they have at least initially cleared with them. I've heard you can get almost everything...

Often stores sell it with the popcorn products or the popcorn salt-good luck-

Hi! I don't live out there but have been out to the area for Tulip festival nearby-there is a support group in Sioux Falls, here is the contact info- Sioux Falls Celiac Disease Support Group, 7 p.m. Call: Grace, 582-7194, or June, 528-6189. Second Monday there is probably one in Sioux City too which would be closer to her, but I haven't heard of...

I'm pretty sure that most of the Blue Diamond nuts are ok-they don't have that "made in a factory w..." warning that almost all the other nuts have-also Planters is ok I believe. I don't know for certain about the soy. Maybe someone else will weigh in here. The Blue Diamond nuts though, are put out by the same people who do the rice crackers-

IT WORKS!! I can hardly believe it, but it does-here is the recipe, altered to be gluten-free. Krumcake tastes better, but these don't taste bad and they fold twice to get that fortune cookie shape. You can put any message in there you want-I used proverbs from around the world, I know someone who once used the Ferengi Rules of Aquisition-or you...

Nancy, Thanks so much! I tried it tonight-Krumcake is awesome (especially warm from the oven)! I'm going to have to get one of those special rollers just so I can make it now-as for what I was attempting with the fortune cookies-I used about a tablespoon of the batter and rounded it out, like you are supposed to do. Then I cooked them in the oven at...

I'd love to try it gluten-free, it's a fun idea-but the "regular" wheat based recipe is rather finicky to begin with-you have about 10-20 seconds to shape the cookie, max, or it's done and you'll break it. I'm a bit nervous about attempting to sub flours-any ideas? or has anyone used a recipe they recommend? Thanks for any suggestions!

I second the Namaste mix for chocolate cake. Don't know if their other stuff is any good, but it is very moist and so good other people don't know it is gluten-free unless you tell them. I've served it at birthday parties and no one knew the difference. Also, I waited for eons to try it not realizing, that, unlike almost every other cake mix out there...

Just thought I'd mention-Perpetuem is a drink/supplement type mix-my husband who is a cyclist just got some today and right on the back it says "contains no wheat or gluten". (Perpetuem, I think, is also a Hammer product). It's supposed to be good stuff. You get a better deal by buying the larger container vs. single serving, but you can try single serving...

Grilled cheese with the outside coating being melted butter, oregano, parsley, and garlic powder...

Just read recent research (can't find the paper now, sorry!) that 1/4 of one Triscuit or the equivalent amount of gluten is enough to cause the autoimmune reaction in celiac, whether or not the person is aware of a reaction. Therefore, new proposed guidelines are that if someone is consuming this amount of gluten per month, since it takes typically about...

Read this in an article today-"fibers for clothing have been made for the first time from the wheat protein gluten...the fibers are as strong and soft as wool and silk but up to 30 times cheaper. Narenda Reddy and Yiqui Yang, who produced the fibers (University of Nebraska in Lincoln) say that because they are biodegradable they might be used in biomedical...

Thanks for the review!!

I've heard that if you are wondering if you are part of the 10% that react, once your labs are good again, if you wish to try out oats (the noncontaminated kind) you can do so and then get retested labwise to see if your numbers go up or not. Some people who react to gluten or to oats don't show obvious signs. Maybe someone else on here will weigh in on...
