    It's hard to go wrong with Pamela's chocolate cake mix. I use the recipe that calls for sour cream. Namaste (sp?) also makes a really good chocolate cake mix. It is more rich than Pamela's, but if you really pay attention you can notice a slight bean taste. I have not found a good vanilla mix yet... Here's a great chocolate frosting recipe: Open...

    My son has been gluten free for over a year and it is still hard for me to tell for sure when he gets glutened. I think he has other food issues, though not other common food allergies. I don't think he can tolerate artificial sweeteners and possibly some other food preservatives. It seems like when he gets glutened his diarrhea is very foul smelling....

    Hershey's will only guarantee that their plain chocolate bar and kisses and and their chocolate bar with almonds are gluten free. Stay away from anything that contains natural flavors.

    I refuse to shop like this unless the product is something that my son is dying to have. I have a lot of loyalty to the brands that disclose gluten in their ingredients. It makes our lives so much easier. I don't want to carry around lists or write down bar codes. I can remember when someone posted here about Target (Anchor Farms) and their similar barcode...

    I actually found this recipe at the following website. I go there all the time for recipe ideas. The bread calls for many dense flours, but what I find most interesting is their baking technique. They cook the bread for thirty minutes and then bake it for another fifteen minutes directly on the oven rack. I think I will try this because the sides and...

    My son was diagnosed at 3.5 years old and he had horrible sleep patterns as well. From the bm's and sleep patterns you are describing it sounds like he might still be getting gluten. If he is in an environment where he can pick gluten up off the floor, then it is likely everywhere and there is an enormous cross contamination risk. I know it's hard but...

    This recipe sounds great. I'll be trying them soon. Thanks!

    I think eating out even in "safe" places can be a hit or miss. We have eaten at Picazzo's three times now and have never had a problem, even at 6:00 on a Friday night. I agree you should let them know about your experience so that they can address any problems.

    I just thought I'd add my two cents. It doesn't seem that the drug is supposed to replace the gluten free lifestyle, instead it is a supplement to help prevent the celiac autoimmune reaction that may take place upon accidental gluten exposure. The more often this autoimmune reaction takes place, the higher the likelihood of developing celiac associated...

    Yes, distilled vinegar is safe. It sounds like a CYA statement.

    I use almond meal. I buy Bob's Red Mill, but you could also ground your own.

    I called Tyson a couple of months ago to ask about their sausage patties that I bought at Costco and they told me that they will disclose any gluten in the ingredients list. The key is to look up the company website, then find their contact information. I know it's a pain. Costco is not very helpful, which is why I try to avoid buying their Kirkland...

    Anything by Mars Foods (Dove) or Nestle will disclose any gluten in their ingredients, so all you have to do is read the labels to determine if it is gluiten free.

    You don't have to apologize. Yes, we should have walked out of there. I'm not making that mistake again. On the grain damaged blog someone commented that they ate there and did not get sick. It IS like playing roulette.

    I buy 25 lb bags of the flours I use often from Bob's Red Mill. Open Original Shared Link

    Mars will disclose any gluten in their ingredients, but maybe you should contact them since they're a promotional product. Perhaps they've partnered with another company or something? Then there's always cc.

    I really like this recipe for chocolate cake. I use 1/2 cup sorghum and the rest of my all purpose gluten free flour mix. Open Original Shared Link

    Thank you so much! I've learned my lesson: a bookmark may not be forever!

    I bookmarked a link to the recipe topic, but the link is broken! I would really like to make these for dinner tonight, but I can't find the recipe and I am out of time to search for it. Could someone please re-post the recipe. I would be very grateful! Thanks!

    I'm glad you found one that you like. Jack Daniel's honey teriyaki marinade in the black pouch is also gluten free and delicious!

    I would experiment with corn starch, sorghum and potato flour.

    Costco in general does not have any gluten free lists and does not clearly disclose gluten in their Kirkland labels. Although I have heard that some Costco stores might have a list, my store does not have one. I usually stick to brands I know and avoid Kirkland brands. I mostly got my membership for the gluten free rotisserie chicken and shredded cheese...

    You give me hope! I can't wait to add another cereal to our line up.

    I'm not sure where you are in Washington, but there are plenty in the Portland metro area. Here's a link to a Portland GIG blog with links to gluten-free restaurants on the right side of the page. I hope this helps. Some are more upscale. I can just imagine my son's dating costs when he gets to dating age. Open Original Shared Link

    See's candy has lots of gluten free products. They are very helpful if you call them.
