    I wrote them back pointing out the problem and I'm hoping they fix it.

    I know how you feel. I think most of us get frustrated once in a while. I personally like my diet, I just don't like that gluten and dairy are everywhere! And that I always have to worry if I am going to get sick from things I eat. I really wish that there were more products produced in 100% gluten-free facilities. Dairy free would be nice too

    I just got an e-mail from the company and their nuts are not gluten free. I just wanted to post this because the information about their gluten-free products in their FAQ section is misleading. I was considering eating their cashews, but I thought that I should make sure before I ate them. I'm glad that I did! This is the statement on their website in...

    Some people with celiac disease do not have any symptoms at all, but they still have intestinal damage. The best thing to do if you want to know if you have celiac disease is to have a blood test and/or an intestinal biopsy. You can also get gene testing done.

    Gluten is dangerous to people with celiac disease. When someone with celiac disease ingests it, the body produced antibodies which attack the small intestinal villi. When the villi are damaged, nutrients are not properly absorbed and nutritional deficiencies may occur.

    Gluten is hard on the digestive system and when it is permantely removed for a while it may be difficult to re-introduce it without problems.

    Try wearing thermal underwear under your clothes, I find that helps me a lot. Also try wearing wool and layer your socks

    I would still have to eat the same way if there was a cure because I have a wheat allergy.

    My allergist said that cancer sores can come from an allergy to molds.

    I usually have left overs for lunch. I purposely cook extra food at dinner for my lunch the next day. When I don't cook dinner like tonight for example, I'll eat Thai Kitchen Spring Onion Soup, salad with gluten-free dressing, or lots of different fruits. Maybe try smoothies for lunch? They can be really filling, especially if you have 2 glasses! What...

    I make pizza with Kinnikinnick pizza crusts. I use gluten-free Kraft pizza sauce and then my favorite toppings. They are really good!

    I'm not sure about that brand, but I drink Silk or So Good soy chocolate milk and chocolate Almond Breeze almond milk. I believe the soy milk is organic.

    I'm in a small town about 2.5 hours north of Edmonton. So we've had similar weather to you!

    We've had a nice blanket of snow here in Northern Alberta since the first week of November!

    I use Kinnikinnick All Purpose Flour Mix for everything that requires gluten-free flour. Making Pie Crusts, Apple Crisps, Chinese Tuna Nuggets... The stuff is amazing! Open Original Shared Link

    Here is my recipe! It is modified from the one on the thread. Stuffing 4 shallots, minced (or 4 garlic cloves minced) 1 onion, diced (or minced in a food processor or blender) 5 small-medium celery sticks, diced (or minced in a foof processor or blender) 5 small-medium carrots, diced (or minced in a foof processor or blender) 3 tbl soy butter...

    If I was going to make gravy, I would use cornstarch. Stuffing is easy, just more expensive. Just replace regular bread with gluten-free bread in your favorite recipe. Here is a good recipe to try: Stuffing 4 shallots, minced (or 4 garlic cloves minced) 1 onion, diced (or minced in a food processor or blender) 5 small-medium celery sticks, diced (or...

    What a great idea!

    I've stuffed chickens with gluten-free stuffing. My main hint is to make sure that the stuffing is only slightly moist. I find that the juices make it moist enough.

    I suggest getting her tested for celiac disease. "Brain Fog" is one of my symptoms. I also get irritability, anxiety, insomnia, depression, and nervousness.

    I think that you made an excellent choice, especially since you are going over after to visit. I made Thanksgiving dinner this year at my own place and it was wonderful. I didn't have to panic or wonder and it was nice.
