Starbucks Vanilla Bean Frapacchino
JennyC replied to JipThePeople's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
If you call Starbucks corporation they are knowledgeable. Don't quote me on this, as I have not talked to them in a while, but they do not consider the vanilla frap to be gluten free because the vanilla powder may be cross contaminated with gluten. This is also true for the vanilla powder in the... -

Best State To Live In For The gluten-free Diet?
JennyC replied to crayola's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I second that! We have lots of restaurants and shopping available. I have three gluten free pizza places within a 10 minute drive from my house! The best part is that in Vancouver Washington there is a little store that is entirely gluten free! -
Ghirardelli Chocolate
JennyC replied to JennyC's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thanks, but I need to buy three pounds of chocolate. I'm making truffles as gifts. I buy See's chocolate candies, but I've never thought of them for chocolate for baking. -
I called Ghirardelli today because I have read a couple of different places that they now produce a crispy milk chocolate bar (with barley ) on the same lines as their bar chocolates. I'm sad to say that it is true. All of their bar chocolate can possibly get cross contaminated. They do clean...

Safeway and Kroger/Fred Meyer brand condensed chicken and rice soups are gluten free. I also like to eat Chebe frozen bread sticks, Health Valley Crunch-ems and animal crackers. I hope you feel better.

For a while my son was having some "bathroom issues" and I was racking my brain for any possible causes. I was concerned about the scents and additives containing gluten. It's not THAT strange. Others recently posted that Palmolive won't confirm or deny gluten in their products.

I would avoid buying their brand of products. My son's babysitter uses their dish soap and when I called them to find out if it's gluten free they told me I would need the UPC code or at least the location and date of purchase. They recommended that I call about each item every time. They also...

We use Lactaid all the time. My son does have D some times that I could not explain. On the other hand, my son does eat quite a bit of processed foods. What am I supposed to do? Never give my son dairy? He eats dairy very often and he absolutely loves it. Yogurt and cheese are some of the few...

Mucus In Stool, Symptom Of Celiac Disease?
JennyC replied to mama2two's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Oily stools with mucus is a classic symptom of Celiac disease. It is true that many people with celiac disease have diarrhea, but others have constipation, therefore diarrhea is not a requirement for diagnosis. If she responds well to the diet then I would keep her on it because that is direct... -
For All Nesquik Lovers. . .
JennyC replied to ptkds's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I also give my son food made in shared facilities. The way that I look at is that nearly all non-specialty foods are made in shared facilities and likely on shared lines, and some companies are upfront and honest about it. If I only gave my son foods made in gluten-free facilities that would severely... -
Toilet Paper And Paper Towels
JennyC replied to confused's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Most people say that you do not need to worry about paper products, but I figure as long as you're going to buy them you might as well buy them gluten free. Besides, to my son the paper rolls are occasionally used as telescopes and microphones! Here are gluten free products, according to the Clan...
