    >I loved the old 60's but the age 60's sucks.....<< Truer words were never spoken! I work for gluten-free low carb food! (If there is such a thing that is edible) Not sure I'm ready to leave Hawaii now, especially after working a month in India! Maybe getting some of those guys sent out here would make it more palatable! ken

    Yes! Bitter gourd is great for diabetics-- called bitter melon here and fairly common in Chinese restaurants. I juice and drink a glass a day (tastes like LK%^&*$!) Still, it is the first thing I tried that caused my blood sugar not to go up while I sleep. I wonder if the millet from SL is the same as the Ragi from Karnataka. _- great stuff except...

    In the 60s my middle name was free but now I have to charge! I always changed diapers too which I do not let my kids forget...much to their dismay. I guess I"ll never understand why men dont take a more active roll in their own life-- although I'm sure my wife would have something to say since I can never find the communal kitchen tools!

    One of these days I'll have to get one for home. I can remember using my mothers in the 50s --

    Almost forgot! I brought back about 30 jars of various achar from India as well as boxes of spices. Would love to make it to SL one of these days too .. ken

    You know Lisa -- I keep waiting and waiting for you and collette to have some of these things in stores or available forsale on internet. I get lazy and rather buy yours than make my own! <G>

    After 33 years together, I know my wife well enough to know I better take responsibility for what I put in my mouth. I bought a number of books which we both read but I know if I asked her if I could et this she would say she didnt know and its up to me. We have to take responsibility for ourselves and our bodies and health. I dont want to have to...

    HI, I can give you names in Tokyo of great restaurants but no one speaks English at them. Matoi Sushi in Shiba Diamon TOkyo -- great place -- you just have to tell them ko-mugi allergy the same as Ken and Honpo san will take care of you. AKita Chanko ryori in Koishikawa too. They usually keep some wheat free soy sauce that I gave them on hand but will...

    I keep dreaming of that big kitchenaid stand mixer with all the attachments for my home. Do you like it?
  11. kenlove
    We used to have seperate hand mixers but it got so bad with flour in the air that there is no longer any mixes in my house. If my wife wants to make some brownie mix or cookies for the kids in her class, she has to do it elsewhere. It was not so much the cross contamination, which is still a big issue, but just the residue in the air that would get me...

    Guess we've all been running -- 50th reunion must have been "THE" experience. just back from India and stopped in Chicago to see grandkids. Only had one thought of smoking which I managed to curtail. That was when the driver stopped to smoke an Indian bedde after a particularly hairy experience on a one lane road at 7000 foot elevation -- golad...

    things still going great in India -- not glutened once so far! the flaT BREADS MADE WITH jackfruit seed flour are by far the best. You can see pictures of this and other gluten-free foods in india on my facebook page. (hope thats allowed to be mentioned) -- the other jackfruit processed products are great too. went to a festival for them last...

    Thanks Peter-- You and Scott worked some magic so I could get back on the forum and not suffer major withdrawal symptoms. Ken

    Hi Amber your so much of the food is naturally glutenfree. We lived near the indian section of chicago for many years and have always enjoyed the foods -- nice to know I still can without naan! Dosa's are wonderfil but with the celiac and diabetes I tend to not have the carbs. My friends have made some from dry jackfruit flower with about 1/10th...

    We know you have the strength! Or you can do what i'm doing -- 14 miles from the nearest store in rural india with no way to get to anyplace with tobacco! Not smoking is not why i'm here but it helps! good luck

    Wish I could this has to be the easiest place I've been to to be comfortable ordering gluten free meals. I have to wonder if its becasue there are so many religous sects with dietary laws and requirments that even cross contamination is not an issue. Some small palces after two fryers so the pork is kept away from other foods. May not apply to...

    Thanks -- wish I could travel for fun more often but I always have fun-- working on a project to survey coffee drinkers in South India on their knowledge about other types of world coffees. I'm somewhat surprised at how good some of the INdia coffee is and have to wonder why its not found more in the states. been eating these little roti breads they...

    Thansk much-- got to a grocery store today although didnt buy anything since I'm still here for awhile. the flours they had on the shelves are amazing.. will have to send a bunch of this stuff back! ken
  23. kenlove
    Almost forgot-- you can go into almost any market, large or small and buy the roti mentioned aboutr, amaranth flour, chana or chick pea flour, dal or split pea flour and a numjber of other things I cant remember. basmati flour or japonic rice flour or brown rice flour -- bunchs of choices! ken

    SO far i've not had any problem avoiding gluten and a surprising number of people and places are aware of it. In small mall shops and coffee joints in Bangalore. Many places also will head into the kitchen if they are not sure. The Taj West End Hotel here is one of the best places I've ever stayed at. They feature gluten-free breads on the buffet...

    I had a mixed reaction to this article too. Being here in India working for the month and staying at a 5 star hotel where they have a section at the morning buffet with a chef to deal with health related issues is amazing. It was incredible for me to just tell someone that I have celiac and diabetes and please fix me something good to eat- They assured me...
