  2. I travel pretty much all over. much depends on where you going and how much research your willing to do but in any better hotel if you talk to the chef, they will understand and know what to do. Nost hotels at least here in hawaii where 12% of the guests have celiac, they have dedicated kitchen areas. good luck
  3. true of all pre packaged curries in japan. S&B, House, Vermont brands have high amounts of wheat. So do rice balls, (onigiri) at 7-`11 and family mart with few exceptions
  4. great list in kanji that Kane posted below, again alot is built on the relationships. There are many Indian restaurants in Tokyo and 90% are fine if you know the food and what to order. A lot is built on the relationships you make in Japan. Where will you be? I might know someone close who can show you around a little. great list
  5. learn the kanji for ko mugi -- wheat Omugi barley find your own soy sauce -- they have a really good sorghum shoyu at some markets like LIFE -- What schoo and where will you be in TOkyo. Might be able to tell you some spots close by depends if your drinking or not. Many small neighborhood places people want to talk or practice...
  6. Next year will be my 40th year of working & lecturing in Japan. 20 of those with celiac. I also went to culinary school in Tokyo so I know a little about how chefs there thinkl Many dont realize shoyu is wheat, they assume its soy beans. Dependsiong on where you go to eat, carry bottle of gluten free soy sauce or braggs aminos that you can...
  7. Annatto is from achiote tree (Bixa orellana), Its simply the ground seed of this tropicak tree and not at all dangerous to celiacs
  8. I do all the time but then I'm in Kona. Until we can get some of the flour to the mainland we are at a standstill. The ULU coop here just does frozen pieces as well as making chocolate mousse and an amazing hummus. mu wife is making some xmas cookies using it. At the breadfruit institue we have dont a ot of testing but your lucky on Maui to Have...
  9. I'm pretty sensitive and never had a problem with Tanqueray. The Tanqueray rangpur is especially good!
  10. There is no one answer -- everyone is different. If i ate your burger I wuld leave a trail from both ends trying to get out of the place or to the washroom -- whatever is closer. There are a lot of alternatives to that type of plum sauce with the obvious being make your own. Dry spices are usually no problem but you have to read every ingredient...
  11. Your lucky, been gluten-free for more than 15 years and never had plantar fasciitis until 5 years ago. If there is a connection i sure wish it worked for me
  12. Having lived in Barcelona and worked in Milan and Parma, Ive found the many of the good restaurants are using different type of original wheats like Einkorn and Ferro and different French wheats whos names I forget. Some new hybrid wheats can have 14 times the amount of gliaden protein than these non hybrid wheats. IN japan they even...
  13. There are a few hundred types of bananas although we only get a few in most western stores. When you talk organic bananas there could be different types. All bananas are divided into groups of A (acuminata sugars) and B (balbisiana - starch) they are classed but chromosomes so your average williams bananas is aab or 2 parts sugar to 1 part starch -- Organic...
  14. Many go vegan because of celiac disease and the other problems it can cause.
  15. my experience was with terrible GFM and with the flight attendants just dumping the rolls on top too. On domestic first, i just get the set up salad and a glass of wine for the dressing. last year I had great gluten-free meals on Ethiad, Emirates, air India, JAL and Jet airways. All better than any US carrier
  16. I'm vegan -- 5 years and counting
  17. The gluten-free meals I've had on American have been ok themselves but the flight attendants have no idea what it is to be celiac and felt sorry for me and dumped a bunch of rolls on top of my dinner. After that I order the fruit plate even in first or business.

      Very cool! I am enjoying this new status update window. Thanks for sharing :)

  20. Hi Ken, I was wondering if you could give me some ideas about gluten free eating in Maui. We will be staying in Kihei next week but are willing to drive for good safe food! Also do you know if the shave ice is safe? I am dying to have one but can't find anywhere the ingredients for the syrup! Mahalo!! Laura

  22. Hi Ken, its been a while. Just wanted to say hi to a friendly face. How are you doing these days??

  23. There are hundreds of types of kimchee made from many many types of things, not only cabbage. Some have soy sauce added to the chile, some use flour to thicken chile water into a paste. Many don't. You have to check each type carefully or do what someone suggested which is to make your own, it is pretty easy.
  24. Hi Ken! Hope you are doing well :)
