  1. San-J makes a line of gluten free asian sauces. I think sweet and sour is one of them. I get them at my small town grocery store so you should be able to find them just about anywhere.
  2. Minniejack, Please reread my reply. I was not referring to the Savannah Outback location. I am not connected to the company in any way. I just don't think it's appropriate to bash all Outbacks because you had two bad experiences in two plus years at one location. We all eat out at our own risk. Mistakes are bound to happen. I am merely suggesting...
  3. Not sure about that one but Classico is labeled gluten-free and that's what we use.
  4. I had the pleasure of going on a sightseeing tour in Savannah with about two dozen Outback managers and a regional manager for the southeast recently. Outback is very committed to serving the celiac community and spend quite a bit of time and money on training. Please contact Outback's corporate headquarters if you are having a problem with a particular...
  5. Cruise the internet bookstores for cookbooks by Annalise Roberts, Bette Hagman, Carol Fenster, Connie Sarros and Jules Shepherd. Those authors tend to get great reviews.
  6. Yeah. I was shopping at the Kroger in Rome and just saw it within the past 7 days. I contacted the company and got this response. I really hope they aren't pricing themselves out of the market. They have a good thing going but the price...yuck. I can get Udi's for $4.50 and I wasn't interested in switching but it's 40% less. Thank you for contacting...
  7. So I've been eating Nature's Own gluten-free bread all summer and absolutely loving it. It was always a little expensive at Kroger - $5.49 for a loaf with about 15 pieces - but this week the price jumped to $7.99. Anyone else in Atlanta see a price jump? Needless to say I'm extremely disappointed and won't pay that for their bread no matter how great...
  8. Yes, you can buy them in stores across the country. Not sure if any of the large chains carry them though. I think there is a list on their website somewhere.
  9. If you had a reaction to one of Amy's products and still have the package please call the company. They'll retest that batch for gluten and let you know the results.
  10. I've tried all the brands mentioned here and still think Joan's gluten-free Great Bakes out of NY makes the best bagel.
  11. The progresso soups that are gluten free are labeled so and there are quite a few. The Gluten Free label isn't always in the same place on the label though
  12. I use Guerrero and Mission brands never had any problems with either. I also make corn tortillas with a cast iron press using Maseca corn flour.
  13. Classico Vodka Sauce is labled gluten free if that helps. I've used it several times without issue.
  14. Your experience is quite common and very frustrating. Over time you'll learn to ignore them. The saddest thing about your experience is that these are medical professionals and they are obviously ignorant about a very common condition. Their lack of compassion is also very disturbing.
  15. Shanghai is great. Assume Beijing would also be friendly. There is a local ex-pat support food allergy group there that can give a list of several restaurants. I think it's a Yahoo group. One of the large American hotels (Hyatt I think) makes gluten free bread that you can buy. There is also a grocery store chain called City Shop that carries western...
  16. Well if the oats were not certified gluten free then that's the first issue and likely the cause of your problems. Also, some celiacs just can't tolerate oats at all so that may also be the issue. Hope that helps.
  17. Have you been tested for PCOS? That is often the cause of frequent cysts. If you have PCOS there are other non-birth control drugs that you can take to help.
  18. Birth control will help reduce the occurance ovarian cysts. Is that something that you are open to or is there a reason your Dr. isn't treating cysts (or offering this as a treatment) this way?
  19. Can you do soy? If so try soy milk. Here's one that I've used in the past: 10 oz. mixture of button, chestnut, s$#&ake, portabello, etc. mushrooms 1 tbsp olive oil 3 tbsp butter (can use dairy free margarine) 1 small onion, finely diced 1 tbsp cornstarch (mixed with a bit of water) 2 cups chicken stock (or vegetable - Pacific and Kitchen Basics...
  20. Absolutely! And don't just look at what you ate last. Take a look back a few days and see if you can see patterns there too. Sometimes reactions are delayed and it may not necessarily be the last thing you ate. Good luck!
  21. I think they've gotten a lot better with their production. I eat the mac and cheese and rice crust pizzas all the time without issue. Don't do anything with beans b/c I don't tolerate beans well so I can' t comment on them.
  22. I'd recommed Dr. William McClatchey at Piedmont Physicians. He's a GP but can order any GI tests you need and is very well versed in celiac. Great if you are looking for someone to manage your condition(s). Harry Delcher in Dunwoody is also worth his weight in gold! He doesn't accept insurance but you can file for reimbursement.
  23. I eat Five Guys Fries and bunless burgers all the time. Pretty sure they are in HI. Everything is safe there except the bun. The burgers are cooked on a seperate grill so as far as fast food goes there is very little chance of CC. Chick Fil A is the only other place I'll eat fries.
  24. The original post is from 2004 - McCann's is not gluten free (50 PPM) and not safe for celiacs. Per their website: Are McCann's Oat products gluten free? In the supply chain between farm and mill, there is a possible cross contamination with other grains, such as wheat and barley but we reckon that the level of non-oat grains to be less than 0.05%...
  25. Hi Dana, Welcome to the forum. There is a rather active support group in Huntsville. You can try contacting them for information on local restaurants and grocery stores. North Alabama Gluten Intolerance Group Jeana Swaim, President phone: 256-233-8436 email: Open Original Shared Link
