    I still think you guys should come to the Big Island <G>!

    Hi, take a look at Open Original Shared Link where I listed a few places on Oahu. I'm on the Big Island and dont know much about Maui places these days but people in general people are becoming more aware in Hawaii. I work with the chefs on the Big Island so it's a little more gluten-free aware than the other islands. Also if you search Hawaii...

    I find it almost impossible these days to eat at the Chinese places here in Hawaii as everything is in soy sauce. If they have rice noodles, they are not always 100% rice. YOu have to explain to them your allergic to soy sauce, (mostly wheat and not soy) four, and breading of any kind. You could go a day early and give them a bottle of wheat free soy sauce...

    I have this problem often with unseen flour in the air. Can't buy wine at costco as its next to the bakery. Can't walk into any bakery anymore. Every time over the past 2+ years since diagnoses if I get near flour, I have almost the same reaction you described. I've read on the forum that we can be affected on a molecular level. When I was first diagnosed...

    Aloha A couple of good Oahu places are Town Chef Ed Kenny (Review) Open Original Shared Link 12th Ave. Grill Chef Kevin Haney Open Original Shared Link They are very close to each other and just a few minutes by car from waikiki area. Both these guys are celiac aware -- they have to be if I eat there! Still, I always call ahead of time...

    Some Japanese/Oriental stores have these 2x4xhalf inch blocks of hard mochi rice -- I mean don't drop one on your foot. In the oven or microwave they soften and become like melted cheese. I've used them as a crust for pizza but also with a little spice they taste a little like cheese. good luck! ken - the other mad scientist -- or maybe just mad - or crazy

    Can you try again? I need 4 new tires for my truck that costs over $1000.

    I use cinnamon or dried orange peel at times and grind them with the beans. Since I make my own vanilla extract from the beans we grow, I will occasionally add that to the coffee but really like the dried orange peel flavor the best. You can also oven pan roast your own hazelnuts / filberts or mac nuts and grind those with the beans. Great coffee...

    The last time I bust my Rival it took me a few months to find another but I bought 3 of them when I did. I use the bowl to pickle things too as well as the slow cooker. With luck you can find another. I have 2 other types but still like the Rival the best. ken

    I dont have any gluten-free powerpoints but if you make one, your welcome to use any of the pictures on my site. I'm not supposed to post the site address so you have to go to my profile to get it. There are a number of dos and donts for restaurants in Hawaii that you might want to work with too,m especially if your dealing with school lunch rooms. It really...

    Could not resist posting this. 2000 BC--Here, eat this root. 1000 AD--That root is heathen; here, say this prayer. 1700 AD--That prayer is superstition. Here, drink this potion. 1900 AD--That potion is snake oil. Here, swallow this pill. 1985 AD--That pill has become ineffective. Here, take this antibiotic. 2000 AD--That antibiotic doesn...

    Hi Meline, besides the CC issues others mentioned there is a remote chance (knowing some of the other problems you have) that you could have a toxicity to cashews. Cashew nuts that have not been carefully roasted are highly toxic. They are in the same plant family as mango, and other more poisonous plants. If you've not had any trouble with them before...

    Years ago I was in TOPS ( Take off pounds sensibly) and was on 1200 Calories a day for more than a year before going to 1500. I need to do it again too! Reading calorie books was really helpful. In those days I didn't have a cholesterol problem so I ate a lot of Chicken liver dinners. The trick for me was finding low calorie filling foods. Ate tons of spinach...

    You really do have to explain each time, Even on airplanes. One flight attendant felt sorry for me and stuck a bagel on top of my "gluten free salad" which rendered it inedible. Even in health food stores with cafe's, they often don't understand and the risk for cross contamination is very high. Good luck ken

    Great! Glad you and they had fun with it. ken

    Use a flash 99% of the time. if you've done baby's then parties should be a breeze. If you set people up in groups or shoot tables of people, do more than one shot. Get an extra memory card if your using digital or extra film. When I taught photography what seems like a zillion years ago I always told students to turn the camera verticle -- something...

I make the posters and work for UH. I spend a month or 2 in japan each year and get furikake which I know the contents of.I qalso make my own at6 times which...

    Most of the soy sauce in Japan is aqlso kikkoman or yamasa. Dont use them as they are 60% or more wheat based. I used to bring my own san-J wheat free soy sauces with me but last March found a bunch of different ones based on awa, hie, kibi and sorghum. The first 3 are different types of millets. Some health food stores in Japan also carry a quiona based...

    Hi, I live in Kona and have yet to hear of otehr celiacs in Hilo -- Only know of 4 of us on the west side. Still someone must be buying all the gluten-free foods at the health food store across from Puainako. Maybe you can post something on the board there. If you find any gluten-free friendly restaurants on that side please let me know too. The last...

    ARCHIVED Italy

    kenlove replied to kenlove's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff

    Last night after a month in Italy and time sure flies. Am sitting in Ancona on the Adriatic thinking that I need to have this place mentioned in the forum files. Restorante Osteria Teatro Strabacco in Via Oberdan n. 2 near the central area of Ancona is well worth the trip to this out of the way port town. it is mentioned on the Italian Celiac Assoc...

    ... On holiday in Italy and you eat at the farmacia while your wife's across the street at the pizza place!

    I threw up every morning for 6 months prior to diagnoses. Since she is being gluten-free it could be a sign of another allergy or getting some minute of gluten from a strange or unknown source. Good luck figuring it out.
