I seem to be a moron!! This is my second ridiculous post today. I should quit posting.... Anyway, for some reason I missed the whole Gluten column, where of course there is a check by Taco and Taco Supreme (DARN!). Also, down at the bottom, it says: Suggestions for Wheat and Gluten Sensitive Individuals - Tostada - Fiesta Taco Salad (order Chicken...

According to : Open Original Shared Link only the Steak bowl is listed as not containing wheat. So... 1) Do you think the Zesty Chicken Bowl only contains wheat because of those red strips? 2) Do we assume the jalapeno sauce doesn't contain wheat since the website doesn't specify it as the steak bowl without dressing? BTW, the site seems to have...

ARCHIVED "red Hot And Blue" Restaurant & Take-out
elainegl replied to Franceen's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
I'm so glad you posted this. I have a $25 gift certificate for this place but hadn't gotten around to emailing them yet. How was the food? Did you eat the chicken or ribs? Thanks! -
ARCHIVED Pf Changs

Never Mind!! I just saw the other post that addressed this very thing. Sorry! -
ARCHIVED Pf Changs
elainegl replied to lightningfoot speakin words's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
Other than the lettuce wraps, what are your favorite gluten-free things to eat at PF Changs? If you could describe the dish you like, that would be even better! My guess is this means "incognito" or something like that. -
ARCHIVED Frozen Bread
elainegl replied to elainegl's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thanks for all the replies! Does anyone have opinions on the different flavors of Kinnickinick bread? I agree that I doubt I'd try the deli, but they do seem to be an allergy friendly place. I plan on going for another salad and scoping it out. Carrie, I thought you were being a smarty pants when you said you liked your bread frozen! (Meaning... -
I felt nauseous 24 hours a day for the first trimester during my first two pregnancies. Now I"m pregnant with my third. I started getting nauseous again yet this time took the advice of a friend and had acupuncture done. It took two treatments, but since the second one I haven't felt one BIT of nausea. I don't know whether it is a coincidence or what, but...

ARCHIVED Frozen Bread
elainegl posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I bought some Kinnickinick Robin's Honey Brown Rice Bread the other day in the freezer section of Vitamin Cottage. I kept the bread in my freezer. My problem is figuring out how to get just two slices off this frozen block of bread without breaking the slices. Help! Also, I think this bread has a good flavor, but it has quite a chewy texture. Are all... -
ARCHIVED Delicious Cereal!
elainegl replied to a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I see that the Ener-G granola has coconut in it. How strong is the coconut taste? I seem to be the only person in the world that dislikes coconut, but I really hate it! Thanks, Elaine -
So far I've had no problem at a McD's, except the one at the airport (which isn't big enough to have separate fryers). I ask the same way, questioning whether the fries are cooked with the nuggets. Elaine

I'm pregnant with my third also and by far this has been the easiest pregnancy. I'm not sure whether it is b/c this is my first gluten-free pregnancy or if it is b/c I took progesterone supplements during the first two, or because I did acupuncture for a little nausea I had early on, but I've felt good, yet tired. I'll be so curious to see how breastfeeding...

There's another wing place in Denver that I got excited about at first b/c they said they fried their wings in separate oil, but then I found out that they move their oil "down the line" at night, so the wing's oil was once upon a time "breaded item's" oil. I chanced it anyway and ate them and boy did I react! However, I did call Wing Stop today and they...

Hi Monica! That's great news about that Macaroni Grill. I wonder if the one in Cherry Creek would be as friendly? Where is the one in Aurora? What's the manager's name? I read a little bit about your restaurant idea in another post. I'd think that it would be great to have a really "fresh" restaurant, sort of like Souper Salad, that focused on fresh organic...

There are quite a few things to be concerned with as far as Mexican food is concerned. Many, many restaurants use soy sauce in their marinade for fajitas, carne asada, regular chicken dishes, etc. Be sure to ask the manager. Also, for enchiladas, many restaurants dip their tortillas into oil, the same oil used to fry breaded/flour items. This helps...

Did you hear back from the company? I'd be interested in that website as well. Thanks! -
ARCHIVED Hair Loss?
elainegl replied to swimmer's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Have you been tested for thryoid function? I'd not only have the regular thyroid panel done, but the antithryoid antibodies run as well. My TSH is in normal range (1.2), but I have antithyroid antibodies and my hair still falls out. When I became technically hypothryoid (TSH 13), I was put on Synthroid and my hair finally stopped falling out. I've since had... -
ARCHIVED New 'safe' Food List,
elainegl replied to a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I went to the website originally referenced and found that they have a newer list that was last updated in January 2004 (and doesn't include Corn Pops). Here's the link: Open Original Shared Link Thanks for the heads up. It's a great list! Elaine -
ARCHIVED Confused...please Help!
elainegl replied to eliana's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Hi Sarah. You just go to the Enterolab website (www.enterolab.com) and order the test yourself from there. Once you place the order, they'll mail you a collection kit and set of instructions. You only mail back the sample on Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday. They are helpful and pretty quick to respond if you email them. In hindsight, I think I would have... -
ARCHIVED Antigliadin Antibodies And The Celiac Gene
elainegl posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
My daughter has tested positive for IgG antigliadin antibodies via blood and IgA antigliadin antibodies via stool. I haven't had her tested for the celiac genes. Do only people with the celiac gene make antigliadin antibodies or can someone without the gene make them? I ask because I'm trying to decide whether to have the test run. If only people...
