    I read somewhere that lots of ciders were gluten free in the UK. Now I just found some information that says that many ciders have barely malt added to them. Does anyone from the UK know brands of ciders that are safe? Or should I just stear clear of all ciders??

    Thank you for posting your experience. I read a lot about their labeling and it is very confusing. That is too bad that you reacted ot a lot of it... it must have put a bit of a damper on the trip. It sounds as though things labeled gluten free are more dangerous than those not labelled that look safe from the label. It makes no sense at all! I am leaving...

    Thank you thank you!! I didn't realize there were gluten free beers over there! We have only one brand here in Canada and it is not very good. And I am a big beer lover so that is exciting news all on its own! And thanks for the list of stores to get gluten free products. Are you from Dublin Ireland? Because I am going there for a week after I am...

    Another question of mine is what kinds/brands of alcohol are safe in the UK? I know the brands that are safe for me here in Canada but can't seem to find any info on brands in the UK. Thanks!

    I am going to London in three weeks and am a little nervous about finding gluten free foods while I am there. I will be in London for a few days before and then a few days after a Contiki tour that starts there. I am mainly looking for a good store to get some crackers, breakfast bars, cookies, etc. to take on the tour with me (becuase I am not sure what...

    I just wanted to warn fellow Regina, SK people about the flours at Old Fashioned Foods. I am not sure about all locations, but my mom was picking up some flours for me the other day from the south albert location and the label now said "may contain traces of flour." She spoke with the manager about this and the manager explained that they now bag their...

    Hi everyone! My friend and I are going on a trip this August for a few weeks to England, Scotland and Ireland and we want to start the trip out with a tour to get settled and comfortable. She brought some info over about a couple of different companies that do tours and we really like how the contiki tours sound. It said that the tour includes continental...

    Hemp hearts really help me. I put them in my smoothies for breakfast and into some of the other things I cook. You might want to give them a try

    My friend and I are planning on visiting Scotland for about a week and a half this August and we are not sure we want to stay in hostels, but we don't have a huge budget either. Does anyone know of a bed/breakfast or cottage or a place to rent that we could get for a reasonable price that they would recommend? Also, I can't find much about eating in Scotland...

    Thank you so much for all of your ideas everyone! I had a GREAT trip and never got sick!! I ate at Chiante's and it was good... very similar to a pasta restarant that serves gluten free in my city (Luiggi's). I also ate at Milestones and it was AMAZING!! I planned to order the salmon on rice that I had in Vancouver at Milestones, but was informed that...

    Not only this, but can you get any in Canada? I have tried ordering a few things from the States and they won't ship to Canada. Very dissapointing.

    Thank you so much for the ideas! I am excited about all of the options!!

    Hi everyone! I am going to Edmonton on Friday and am staying for a week to visit some friends. I know we are going to be out a lot and I am wondering if anyone who lives there can suggest some restaurants! I know about Outback steakhouse which I love!! And Tomy Romas and Montanas... but those two I eat at so frequently I would love to try something...

    But the Orchard Blend ones don't cause a reaction? I am assuming that they make them on totally separate lines. I am so glad that I asked this question before trying the veggie ones.. you saved me some pain! Thank you for your help

    REally? It is scary that they have gluten free all over their webpage and several others that I found. I was a worried when I read about the barley and oat proteins. I will stear clear of the veggie ones then. I am dissapointed though I must say. What kind did you get instead? Did you get a veggie supplement? Or some other kind of supplement?

    My aunts both take Juice Plus food supplement and they swear by it. I would like to start taking it, and see that on their website they say it is gluten free, but I am concerned because it lists barley and oats and has (gluten free) after each. I found this old post from this website: "I know of a great whole food supplement that is better than any vitamin...

    I emailed The Body Shop and OPI to ask about their lotions and which do not contain gluten. These are the responses that I got and I thought I would share them with you all. The Body Shop's response is not overly helpful though as the ingredient lists really do not help a lot for those who don't know what the big names of everything are. Anyways, here...

    I hope it goes well Lisa. I have just recently had my second one and it went good. i asked for lots of drugs and i don't remember a thing from this one... i would recommend doing this! I am sure you will do okay though. My thoughts will be with you. I went gluten free before my first endoscopy too and had to eat gluten for 4 months before the test.....

    If you have a number for someone Lisa that would be great! I cannot find one on any of my newsletters. And i have looked up the regina chapter in a google search already and it gives me the location, but no number. Thanks, Courtney

    I have a question for anyone in regina. I am a member of the regina chapter, but even though I changed my address when I payed my renewal fee, my newsletter is getting sent to my old address. I want to sign up for the cooking demo of the gluten free oat products (march 14 and 15th) and don't know who to call. It said in the newsletter that the telephone...

    I ate at ZEST restuarant last night and it was DELICIOUS!! We had an appetizer that was like a bean/chili sauce on top of cucumbers and it had so much flavour! Then I ordered a halibit dish that had a caramel sauce and was on wild rice.. it was really good! i also tasted the chicken dinner.. it was stuffed with a rice and walnut filling and was on sweet...

    I believe all neutrogena products are gluten free. I just got the skin cream for my face and it works really well too!
