  1. Thank you everyone for the awesome replies. Believe me, it helps. After more thought, I'm hopeful it didn't come across as rude. All of us will set cookies and what-not in the kitchen for everyone to enjoy. I. E. our copy vendor brings us cookies when they do large copy jobs for us as a "thank you" and I set those in the kitchen, etc. I guess it was...
  2. It's Assistance Day and I'm an assistant! I work for a lawfirm who were wonderful enough to take us assistants out and also send us wonderful looking cookie baskets. Yep a COOKIE basket. It did have a box of chocolates enclosed, however, the ingrediants listed FLOUR, so no go on ANY of it for me. Since I'm Celiac, and yes the firm does know this,...

  4. I just received a letter from Alberto Culver, the company that handles St. Ives, Motions, Tresemme and VO5, they gave me a list of their products THAT DO CONTAIN GLUTEN, please AVOID the following: Motions: Kids Detaingling & conditioning Shampoo and conditioner, Lite Oil Moisturizer, Nourich Leave in conditioner, Oil Moisturizer (they have wheat...
  5. I purchased L-Glutamen powder from G N C. It says no wheat or gluten and only list L-Glutamen as the ingredient. I didn't do well with it. I didn't get extremly ill, just seemed to produce a lot of acid on my stomach and a little ach. Is it naturally hard to digest? I'm checking with G N C on cross-contamination. I would really like to use it as a...

    ARCHIVED Any Celiac Athletes?

    First, YOU ROCK! Congrats too! I'm not quit to Marathons yet, but working on it. I have been asking the same questions. For Carb loads: Someone posted that Gu is gluten-free, I can't remember the manufacture name. Since I'm not as advanced as you I found that the Envirokidz gluten-free Rice Bars are o.k. for me before and after my runs. I'm checking...
  7. I have found much wonderful information on this board on what to avoid and some great cosmetic and cleaning suggestions. But is there a shopping guide/list that I can buy or a good on - line link to one? I have Clan Thompsons. I know the lists are not be all, end all, but they do provide a good basis in concert with me reading lables, especially when you...
  8. I'm so glad someone brought this up. I'm having the same problems. I also get even more tired and experience almost flu like symptoms right before I start, then when I start I seem to get back on track. I also get a craving for chocolate and salt! Crazy I know, but true. Thank you all! Have a great day! Christina
  9. I hate to say this, perhaps I'm in gloom and doom mode, but I find that you are going to get trace amounts no matter what. I'm sorry that is just the way I feel. I'm NOT saying however, that we should not be diligent. I'M a celiac so I'm not happy about this either. I do my very best and beyond to be strict about what I ingest, but I find it hard to believe...
  10. I'm by far no expert. But I have read that Starbuck's coffees and espresso and torani (sp?) flavorings are gluten-free. Best to double check with Starbucks to keep yourself safe. I myself have had no problem, however I have cut milk for now until I heal more, but most offer Silk SoyMilk alternative and I read they are gluten-free too. I also have only...
  11. Oh thank you thank you, that has been a big question of mine since going gluten-free. Haven't got all my strength back yet for long runs, but getting there! This is most appreciated. Have a great day! Good health to you! Christina
  12. Forgive my ignorance. But what is schnapps? I used to like to have a Sour apple purcker shote with 7-up before going gluten-free. Is Dekuyper (sp?) apple pucker gluten free? I haven't had it since being diagnosed, but just wondering. I went to the web site and they do not list ingredients. Thank you! Have a great day! Good health to you all...
  13. Open Original Shared Link You already may know about this beer. So I apologize if so. Please go to the FAQ's. This beer was created by two Celiacs. Haven't tried, came across from my mid-evil studies. I'm going to order some and will let you know! Have a great day! Christina
  14. Thank you so much for the input! I have tried to get a hold of A1 with no luck. It doesn't appear there is gluten from the ingrediants listing. Thank you gillian502 for your hard work, I'm glad you got in touch with them. This is great! Also I read the ingrediants and also found on the Frito-lay list that Doritoes baked Ranch Flavor is gluten free...
  15. Oh my goodness, this is wonderful news, however, I have heard that about the Doritos, WOOO HOOO. I was just afraid. I will read those lables. Have you tried the Doritos Naturals, again I know to read the lable, but wonder if they are better at being gluten free. I will check out the Shaws, I'm happy to see more. Thank you for the great response. ...
  16. Greetings! I hope everyone is doing well. I'm a hugh fan of A 1 steak sauce and and even hugher fan(actually a freak) for Doritoes. I have found gluten free corn chips and they are wonderful, but I do miss my salsa flavored doritoes and A1 for my steak when I have it. I found Mr. Spice, but I would really appreciate anyone who would have a recipe...
  17. I must give a high five to the Giant Eagle grocery store chain. I'm not sure if they are national, I think they are a north east coast chain. But they now have a section of the store that is dedicated to natural/organic/healthy foods, which include gluten free products! The store next to me carries Food For Life, Ener-G, Amy's and Van's and a couple...
  18. Hello SteveW! I just want you to know you are not alone. I'm a newbee, two weeks in, I'm doing my very very best to be gluten-free. I believe I'm doing a good job. I felt better for the first week, then I have had small episodes(mostly flatulence(gee that is embarassing), nothing as compared to what I would get eating gluten, but I must say I do get...

    ARCHIVED Camping

    Any one have advise for a gluten-free camper? travelthomas, I read a lot of your post, you seem to do a lot of travel, ever camped? Do you have advice for me? I'm part of the Society for Creative Anachronism. I attend a hugh fest in August for a week. I will be camping and living a lot like they did in the middle ages. If there are any SCA-thians...
  20. First, let me say I did a search of the boards for rice polish and nothing came back. A lot of other post regarding rice came back, but no rice polish. I'm new, got my flours for baking me some goodies. My ener-g white rice flour box has some recipes that I would like to make, but they call for rice polish. What is that exactly? Can you substitute...

    ARCHIVED Paraniod

    Justmel74, I'm glad you are here!!!!!!!!!! I didn't mean to make you paranoid too. I'm sorry. I'm just paranoid myself. I'm also very thankful for the advice of Laura and Lauradawn. And I'm so with you justmel74, I have some wonderful stonewear and I just couldn't see wasting all that money that I spent in purchasing it. I'm single, so for right now...
  22. Oh my goodness, thank you for the great replies. I found a store near me that carries the Lunderg Hot Cereal. I can't wait to go get me some! Have a great day! Christine

    ARCHIVED Paraniod

    I'm a little overwhelmed, making myself confused. I'm 35 and as many of you may know I've just been diagnosed, now 7 days out I believe, but sometimes the more I read, the more confused and scared I get, but I know that is just how I am. My questions that are making me paranoid are 1. I have used regular flour, since I don't know when, and have stored...

    ARCHIVED Important Topics

    Oh my, I'm sorry to hear about your low intollerance. I will definately take that into advisement because I want to feel good and my health is very important to me. I did go there and eat and I was o.k., but I really don't want to rely on that one experience because I'm new to all this and I still consider myself to be sick, so I wasn't feeling great,...
  25. I occasionally like one of what I call fake cappucinos from Speedway gas stations, I have been trying to find out if they are gluten free. I have not heard yet. I know that Superior Coffee's makes the product and have sent them an e-mail, no word yet. The ingrediant listing on the site is somewhat different from the one at my local store. My concern was...
