    I'm Impressed this year. Some of the people I work with decided to give sweets to everyone. Two people went out of their way to find something specifically marked gluten-free that I could eat. Someone else managed to successfully find something from "normal" section that they thought was ok... and it was. I'm particularly impressed with that because as far...

    Have offered to be in charge of snacks for Christmas this year. That way I can buy lollies and chips that I can have and so can everyone else. Never much fun when I have my own bowls of stuff- other years when I've done this people forget and eat mine. Which is fine but I'd only got enough for me and if it all goes I can't eat "theirs" Apparently it...

    Probably got glutened last week. Got a burger who advertised patties and buns as been gluten-free. Forget to check the sauce. For anyone in Brisbane: I was in topshop a few weeks ago and they now have a little doughnut time store in there. I noticed they had a gluten-free option and asked for that. The person serving asked me if I was coeliac - was reluctant...

    Remember that international brands of packaged foods can vary from country to country. For example in USA M&MS are ok (at least they used to be, I'm not sure if they still are) however in Australia they contain wheat starch and so are not gluten-free. Also you might find that one type of food that is normally gluten-free in your home country is not in...

    Welcome to the forum. I'm 28 and also struggling to work this since it was upgraded. We can be embarrassments to Generation Y together.

    In woolies tonight I found gluten-free up and go! Not sure if it will taste good but still exciting. Looks like sanitarium have realised that people who need to eat gluten-free actually like the same things as those who don't. I got the chocolate one- I'm impressed the resisted the urge to add some orange flavour to it.

    Good Luck. Can't really give on recovery since I was diagnosed when I was 6. I'm not highly sensitive though and when I was a teenager used to cheat a lot. I did feel a bit better when I stopped cheating. Some advice- - Try not to think of all the things you can't have- It's hard but there are lots of things that you can still eat. - Remember that...

    Am starting to get a bit cranky that alot of new gluten-free products are raw and paleo. Same with recipes online. I don't mind that type of food sometimes but I don't want to eat that way all the time.

    Has anyone tried the woolworths brand of gluten-free bread? I think it is new as haven't seen it before.

    Went to gluten free expo today. found out that Latina are about to release some gluten-free fresh pasta. I think it comes out this week in Woolworths. Looks like there will be ravioli and lasagne sheets. Wasn't able to taste test but will be definitely buying some. Also got a enchilada kit and soft taco kit from San diego tortilla company. Unfortunately...

    Sitting in pizza express in london. Best gluten free pizza I have ever had. They serve it on special boards that are only used for gluten-free pizza. Also the pizzas on the menu they list as been able to be made gluten-free means all of it. None this gluten-free base only or meat pizza been gluten-free without the meat business you get at some places

    Yum. Has any tried the san remo gluten-free egg noodles/pasta?
  13. Saz
    I find that a bit poor. My understanding is that the company only produce allergen free products, so I don' t think it good that they have made a product that now includes one it previously did not. It annoys me when a "regular" companies make a product I can have and then change their ingredients to include something with gluten, but I can understand it...

    Anyone had a gluten-free meal on Singapore Airlines? Flying with them soon. Heard fairly good things about their regular meals, although I'm still expecting rice cakes instead of any kind of gluten-free bread and fruit salad for dessert. Also no yoghurt with breakfast..... even though the food for the breakfast flight will have been prepared in Aus and I...

    Anyone get things from Aldi? I ended up getting a few. So far tried the cheese tubes and tom yum noodles. The tubes taste similar to the other gluten-free ones you get. The noodles are nice flavour, the texture is a bit odd but I think that it is more just my personal preference. I also bought some black forest biscuits, Mocha cake mix, Banana cake...

    Some of those look good. I found some of their pancake mix the other day. Not tried it yet. Have tried a few bits from Has no range. Liked them all, but trouble is apart from a few packs of biscuits, pasta and bread they don't stock the other stuff most of the time. Will definetly pop in this week though.

    Made a massive twat of myself tonight. Went out for dinner and ordered a pasta dish. Normally it comes as linguine but they can make a gluten-free version using gluten-free penne. So my dish comes out and after taking a few bites, I notice what looks like bits of linguine in it. I pick out and when the waiter comes to check if everything is ok, I ask about...

    Is anyone else getting annoyed with family trying to arrange foods for Christmas? I offered to get snacks for the day including chips. Which was meet with a reply of well just organise food for yourself so you have something. Grr

    I think that some of the Crabbies ones are and are labeled so. Haven't had them for a awhile though so it may not be gluten-free anymore. There is also a brand who's name I can't think of but it has a dragon on the label. Just check the packaging though as I think only certain ones are. It's also really expensive- around $9 for 500ml bottle.

    Some of Weis ones used to be and were labeled so- I haven't looked for ages so not sure if they still are. Blue Ribbon used to have some that were ok- not lableled gluten-free but were ok by ingredient-but this was about seven years ago. I'm not sure if it's just me, but unlike most things I find it harder to buy icecream than a few years ago. Coles do a...

    I'm sure everyone knows this already but it's my favourite so I'll post it anyway, Tomatoes ( I always use the big ones but it is just personal taste.) Red onion Coriander Salt Pepper Lime Juice Basically cut up the tomatoes into small pieces and then dice the onion and chop coriander. Mix them in a bowl with the other ingredients and a bit of...

    I never realised that they were gluten-free by ingredient, I have avoided them for years thinking they have gluten in them. Obviously that is irrelevant now. I think that if a product has been free of an allergen and a company changes the recipe, I think they should have to put at least a new recipe sign on the front of the packet, regardless of it was advertised...

    Me again. Just thought I'd let everyone know that Coles has expanded their own brand range. They now include wraps- someone bought these for me, I was a bit worried as they have that plastic look, but I found them really soft and tasty if heated slightly. They also didn't fall to bits, although I didn't stuff them. I also found rice noodle cups in beef...
  24. Saz
    Thanks Sammykins! This makes happy as I found them really tasty. I've tried and looked at a few other products in the range and noticed they seem to use rice flour or non wheat/gluten based sauces in alot them (some have wheat, but they are clear). I wish more companies would do this, gives me more options and I'm sure no one will notice a gluten free...
  25. Saz
    It doesn't say gluten free. I haven't had a reaction but I'm not very sensitive so even if it was wheatcrumbs I might not react from just one. I am hoping you are right about them been made from soy!
