ARCHIVED Going List Crazy!
angel-jd1 replied to Mieux7's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I never trust something that someone else has made up. I may use a list as a reference to get me started in the right direction. However I always go ahead and call the company on my own or check their website to double check the gluten free status. People are well meaning with lists, and lists are great, but you are the only person who is responsible for... -
ARCHIVED A Setback For Celiac Research
angel-jd1 replied to Claire's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Claire- You might want to read this thread. It has already been discussed on the board and has been put into action. Open Original Shared Link -Jessica -
Sorry you feel that way. It's quite a shame. -Jessica

How many cuts are you going to take before you write and show that it IS important to you? We may need to cut spending in places, but you also need to show what is important!! If you just let things pass by then you are saying that it's totally ok by you to cut funding. You have to stand up at some point and say HOLD IT!! -Jessica

ARCHIVED Namaste Foods
angel-jd1 replied to jkmunchkin's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I had a hard time finding things I liked at first. I wasted TOO much money trying to find "replacements". I think after a while my tastebuds adjusted and everything wasn't YUCKEY anymore. I have found a few things that I rely on for a regular basis. I like the gluten free pantry's cake and cookie mix, also their pie crust mix and their chocolate truffle brownies... -
I hope everyone follows suit and writes. Nobody else is going to do it FOR US. Once the funding is cut, it's gone!! Research declines, and then where do we sit?? If there are no advancements in research we still sit in the dark. Sooooo take the couple of minutes that it takes, use the letter that I have pre-written to speed it up even more and get to writing...

ARCHIVED Cookbooks For Children
angel-jd1 replied to JacobsMom's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
This book isn't a cookbook, but it is a great book for kids with celiac. I am a teacher with celiac and I read it to my students to help them understand why I can't eat their birthday cuppycakes and such. It is called Eating Gluten Free With Emily . It is written by Bonnie Kruszka. It is a must have for a celiac kiddo!! You can buy it through the gluten free... -
ARCHIVED I'm Afraid My Kitchen Will Be Toxic
angel-jd1 replied to chrissy's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
When I visit my parents, I sometimes find myself being a gluten natzi. However, I figure it's ME who has to deal with the puking and diarrhea when I get contaminated, not them. If you don't take care of yourself, and take responsability for your health, nobody else is going to do it. Stand up for what you need and make it very clear!! It is the only way to... -
I'm not sure how many of you saw this article. But here it is just incase you hadn't seen it yet. Funding for the National Institute of Health could possibly be cut if we don't get moving!! In order to let people know what we need weHAVE to speak out. Folks, we have done this before, and now is a great time to do it again. It is time to write your Senators...

ARCHIVED My Kids' Results Are In
angel-jd1 replied to lonewolf's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
If you have been diagnosed positive by a medical doctor, I just read an article in the new living without magazine the other day that recommend testing your children every 2 years for Celiac. They may not be currently producting antibodies, but may in the future. -Jessica -

Pass them along to another hungry non-celiac person. I am a teacher and have gotten countless food gifts this season. I have just quietly passed them along. Just today I got a loaf of quick bread and a box of homemade sugar cookies!! I passed them along to another hungry person who could have them. If the person asks just say that they looked beautiful...

ARCHIVED gluten-free 'chex' Mix?
angel-jd1 replied to pamelaD's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I made chex mix with the rice and corn crunch'ems and then also made people puppy chow with them!! MMMMMMMMMM good stuff. I used the recipe off of the chex website and just subbed in the health valley cereals and gluten free pretzles and such. 3/4 teaspoons garlic powder 1 1/2 teaspoons seasoned salt 1/2 teaspoon onion powder 1 cup mixed nuts... -
Not exactly sure but during that time I couldn't keep any food down so it was probably pedialyte and possibly a jar or baby food. I wish I had eaten something wonderful like pizza or take-out chineese! ha -Jessica

ARCHIVED Top 5...
angel-jd1 replied to JessicaB's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
1) Gluten Free Pantry Mixes (chocolate truffle brownies, cake and cookie, and pie crust) 2) Amy's frozen foods (rice crust pizza, cheese enchiladas etc) 3) Nana's Lemon Cookies 4) Tinkyada Pasta 5) Kinnikinnick Doughnuts Funny thing is, I hardly ever buy these things. I just mostly eat foods that are naturally free of gluten. But when you... -
ARCHIVED Have Not Felt This Good For 25 Years!
angel-jd1 replied to voyager's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Craig- You can't change the past. All you can do now is stay gluten free. As you said the gluten free diet is a pretty darn easy way to change how you feel!! We are lucky that we dont' have to spend hundreds of dollars on a medication!! Get regular check ups to check for things like colon cancer and such. The damage of the years is already done... -
ARCHIVED Does Anyone Else Get Unnaturally Excited...
angel-jd1 replied to Lauren M's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I have caught myself doing this often. I find something that is gluten free, then purchase it no matter if I need it or not!! I just WANT it cause it says "gluten free" it may taste like crap, but hey it's GLUTEN FREE!! ha A couple of weeks ago at my Wal-Mart I finally started to see their new labeling taking effect. I was throwing all kinds of things... -
Not too long ago I had made the "filling" of a pot pie. It was good, the crust recipe here would be excellent with it!! Jennie-O Turkey makes those turkey roasts that are gluten free. I cubed that up and mixed it with a package of mixed veggies and the gravy out of the pan of turkey roast. It was SOOO good and reminded me of those tasty cheap pot pies...
