    Thank you! I mostly shop in Portland, and I have never seen them. I always check though!

    I have to say that I love General Mills! I just wish that I could find these cereals on the West Coast. We've never even seen Berry Kix in the grocery store.

    We see Dr. Terry who is a pediatric gastroenterologist at Doernbecker's. She is even recommended ny GIG! Here is a link to the clinic. Open Original Shared Link

    I did not biopsy my son because we had already started the gluten free diet prior to going to the pediatric GI. He had a tTG IgA level of three times the upper limit of the normal reference range and he had all of the classical celiac symptoms. He had foul fatty D at least 3 times a day, was bloated, had no appetite and was not growing. Upon starting the...

    Thank you! We love him so much! The breeder named him Ty, and we did not change it. He already knew his name, and we could not decide on a better one.

    Nestle and their other company Wonka candy will disclose any gluten in their products. All you have to do to determine if it's gluten free is read the label.

    Keanna's Candyland--it's a great treat to take my son there! They are all gluten free, except some of the candy that you can buy may not be gluten free. Everything they make is gluten free. They have many menu options available. Not everything that they make tastes the best, but my son is so excited to go there that he does not seem to notice!

    Thank you!

    I'm glad I could help you find a new favorite recipe. I have found many on this site.

    I just posted about their chocolate a week or so ago. I contacted them and I was told that all of their chocolate is gluten free. They also stated that their chocolate is free from cross contamination!!! It also tastes out of this world! I recently bought 3 pounds of their chocolate and made about 200 truffles. I am now a loyal customer!

    I wish they would offer gluten free pizza here. I guess I should not be so greedy, we have plenty of gluten free pizza options around.

    Those are interesting recipes. I've been looking for ways to experiment with polenta. What flours did you use for the bread. I have many of them, except they're getting a little old and I'm not sure that I would want to use them. Thank you for posting!

    I usually extend it at least until the upper limit of the baking time. If I am baking bread I often bake it until I'm afraid it's going to burn. It took me a long time to get bread that would not sink. It still happens to me sometimes when I try different recipes, like the gluten free french bread recipe on recipezarr.com! I also bake my bread in...

    Maybe try adding more protein to your flour mixture. When I make bread I often add a couple of tablespoons of whey protein, which someone on here mentioned on the flax bread thread. I have also started using fava bean flour to make up about 25% of the flour called for in many recipes. It is really high in protein for a gluten free flour and most of the...

    ARCHIVED Snow ?

    JennyC replied to purple's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff

    I REALLY REALLY want it to stop snowing and start melting! Normally I would welcome snow. I live in Portland Oregon. Normally we might see a couple wimpy snow showers a year at best. Now we have over a foot! I'm going crazy stuck in my house. I have been making cookies and candy, and my family has postponed Christmas. DH's family is having Christmas...

    Duncan Hines often changes their recipe. I can tell you that Pillsbury and Betty Crocker will disclose any gluten in their ingredients, so you just have to read the label to determine if it's gluten free.

    Thank you! I look forward to trying it!

    We too love Sweet Baby Rays. I used to love Jack Daniel's sauce before my son was diagnosed. Recently I noticed it was on the Heinz gluten free list, so I bought two bottles. It tasted so similar to Sweet Baby Ray's! No wonder we had no problem switching over to Sweet Baby Ray's! You can also buy Sweet Baby Ray's at Costco!

    I posted the other day about the new potential for Ghirardelli chocolate bars to get cross contaminated with barely. I have been in contact with Barry Callebaut chocolate, and they have assured me that there is no risk for cross contamination of their chocolate in the US or Canada. I'm really excited to find a safe chocolate for baking! I just thought...

    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 the lines between batches and they throw away the first...

    Good for you! You know, we would not complain if you posted the recipe!

    Someone mentioned Hickory Farms...last year when I called them they had to look up the gluten status of each individual product, and they did not know about some of the cheeses. I gave up and decided not to risk it with my son. On the other hand, Hillshire Farms will clearly disclose gluten in their ingredient list.

    It's really great. It's a drop biscuit, so it won't look like a southern style biscuit. Try the savory variation I wrote about, I swear it's so close to the Red Lobster Cheddar Bay biscuits. I don't let them rise, I just mix them and bake them. I hope they work out for you!

    I use the featherlight mix a lot, but lately I've been adding in fava bean flour, up to 25% of the flour the recipe calls for. It is pretty much tasteless and adds protein and structure. The featherlight mix: 1 cup rice flour 1 cup corn starch 1 cup tapioca flour/starch 1 TBSP potato flour * 1 tsp xanthan gum per 1 cup of flour This...
