Thanks for the warm welcome! I'm in Mississauga. I found a selection in those stores as well but guess I'm looking for the "easy meals"...not just the staples like bread. When you order on line, what's the S/H like? Do you still eat out in restaurants? Ren -
Can anyone share info they may have on what they've been told with regards to celiacs and an increased chance of melanoma.

Thank-you for such a knowledgeable reply! Based on what I've foind out so far, the gluten-free lifestyle sounds healthier even if you aren't celiac.

I feel so much less... -
