I got sick on Saturday. We're talking in the car in the middle of no where on a road trip emergency sick. I've forgotten how much I missed those times. Anyway, the only conclusion that I've come to is that Sonic made me sick. Now before you go saying "of course it did dummy"....I only had a drink their, a cranberry limeade to be exact. I recall having...

ARCHIVED Starbucks Gluten Free
modiddly16 replied to HannahHannah's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I drink their iced tea lemonades without any issues and a hot chocolate with a few pumps of peppermint on a cold day Sometimes, like this morning, I get both... -
ARCHIVED I Can't Commit To Gluten Free Without Some Sweets!
modiddly16 replied to ohitsonlynicole's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
You can't find any gluten free sweets? Sweets is what gluten free does best...I've never had a problem finding gluten free desserts anywhere that sells gluten free food. Granted, sometimes you have to make them yourself but cookies and brownies are really so easy to make. You really need to stop going to cinnabun and all that and start being healthy or... -
Right....as I said, I saw that the ingredients listed it as being gluten free. I was curious about anyones reaction to them.

ARCHIVED Your Significant Other
modiddly16 replied to hypersof's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
My boyfriend and I live together and our kitchen is whatever. I do the majority of the cooking, with no complaints from him...and I tend to make meals that are gluten free. However, just because its gluten free doesn't mean you have to cook any differently than you would normally, it's easy to avoid gluten containing items when you eat shrimp, chicken, meat... -
Don't take any unnecessary risks by eating out if you're really concerned. I rarely eat out as is...even if a place is "gluten-free friendly", I still tend to be a skeptic and I'm 7 years (close) gluten free. There are some days that if I'm traveling or something that I refuse to eat at all...which obviously I don't recommend haha. Just be careful....maybe...

I'm curious about McDonald's McFrappes and if they're gluten free. Per their website, they seem as if they are but I was curious if anyone had experience with it. I'm aware of the negatives about McDonald's and the many forums on this site bashing their food...I'm not trying to eat there, just trying to get one of those delicious looking Frappes. Anyone...

ARCHIVED Gluten Free Can Taste Good?
modiddly16 replied to Chrisco's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I think that gluten free does desserts really well...its easy to find things that taste normal and delicious in that food category but its also dangerous because of the astronomical amount of sugar involved. There is definitely a lot of food that disappoints. I've wasted a lot of money on bread over the past 6 years...sometimes there is bread that birds... -
hahaha oh my goodness.....the title to this thread alone just made me laugh out loud at work! Kim- first off...you are amazing and will go very far with a sense of humor I think the most important thing once you get a handle on your diet is to work out and stay healthy. We all have different perceptions of ourselves, so while you might feel like a fat...

ARCHIVED Is Amy's Gluten-Free Food Safe To Eat?
modiddly16 replied to WilliamM's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
You should search the site for answers to this question, Amy's has been touched upon many times on this board...but I'll still throw in my two cents. I love a company that tries to help those of us with celiac disease, however, I no longer eat Amy's. In my experience, as well as many other peoples on this board, Amy's has a high rate of cross contamination... -
ARCHIVED Gluten Free Oats?
modiddly16 replied to jello5's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I can't eat oats at all. I've done several experiments with them and have gotten sick every time. I think it's just all about how you react. If you're newly diagnosed, I'd definitely wait a long time before you experiment with gluten free oats, just so your body is healed up a bit. I've been a celiac for 6 1/2 years and I just tested the gluten free oats... -
ARCHIVED Dannon Light&fit Key Lime
modiddly16 replied to pufffee's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Yoplait doesn't have this problem. Their pie flavors are just yogurt. You're probably pretty safe with Dannon but it's the principal of the matter. I go with Yoplait because they work with people to put gluten free on their labels when Dannon seemingly blows you off. However, sometimes, if the ingredient list looks good on yogurt and you still feel like... -
ARCHIVED Gluten Reaction Decreasing?
modiddly16 replied to SGWhiskers's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
The longer you follow your gluten free diet, the longer your body has to heal....once your body is all healed up the gluten reaction typically gets less intense or delayed. I would get sick within 10 minutes of gluten consumption, now sometimes it'll be a day or two after. I think it just depends on your body and your healing process. Some people are as... -
ARCHIVED New Worst gluten-free Food Ever
modiddly16 replied to BethM55's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Yea I just cook them per the package with some salt, not the amount on the package though, just enough to get it to boil like you would anytime you're cooking! -
ARCHIVED New Worst gluten-free Food Ever
modiddly16 replied to BethM55's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I actually love these and haven't had any of the complaints that you have here. I think Conte's products are definitely worth trying. To each his own I reckon! -
ARCHIVED Am I Asking Too Much Of My Boyfriend?
modiddly16 replied to Eli2003's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I've been a Celiac for over 6 years, I've been dating my current boyfriend for about a year of that. Him and my last 2 boyfriends have never given me anything but complete support. Has it been difficult at some times? Absolutely. But if a person cares about you and is a large part of your life, they shouldn't have any problems accepting and supporting... -
ARCHIVED Kellogg's Has Bad Info On Their Website
modiddly16 replied to floridanative's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Please notice how old this thread is.....they're not confirmed gluten free and to the best of my knowledge...never were! -
ARCHIVED Cadbury Creme Eggs
modiddly16 replied to kimis's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
It's weird...on that Gluten Free facts website, they list the cadbury creme eggs as gluten free. There are so many different comments about these, if they are or if they aren't...I just avoid them because I don't know anymore! -
ARCHIVED How To Handle Being A gluten-free Wedding Guest
modiddly16 replied to GFLindsey's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
You sound like me last year!! A lot of the weddings, my friends knew about my situation and they came to me about what I could or couldn't eat. In some cases, if I was familiar with the caterer or venue, I wouldn't eat and tell them to not worry about it but I found that in most cases, the caterer and the bride/groom were completely willing to work with... -
ARCHIVED Oats - Do You Have To Limit Amounts
modiddly16 replied to Alex J's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I'm almost 7 years gluten free and I react very strongly to oats...whether its one oatmeal cookie or an entire bowl of oats. I'm not really that sensitive anymore either (to cross contamination and things). I've given it several test runs to rule out coincidences and just figured its not worth it any more! -
It depends on your reaction to this. A product can be gluten free and processed on shared equipment. I wouldn't be overwhelmed about this or frustrated with Trader Joe's. They're a good company who actually work pretty hard to make things possible for people with celiac disease and it bothers me that people are so quick to accuse them of wrongdoing. Most...

ARCHIVED Is Shampoo W/ Gluten Ok?
modiddly16 replied to jasonD2's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I've never avoided products that I don't consume that have gluten in them. I can honestly say that I've never been glutened by my shampoo or hand soaps, but it is your choice. Many people choose to take more precautions than others! -
