ROFL "woohas"???!! (btw there are many things many guys do that I do not) And GOODGOLLYMISSMOLLY who said anything about *married*!!?? I'm ready for a girlfriend!!! The "toothbrushes but not a *lot* of clothes at each other's place" kind. Don't be too surprised that the 1st time I bought fem hygiene products was in the mid-80s. (Some comedian... -

I say don't take it. Many stores here even accept returns of opened and partly used pills. There's NO way I would take it, and I wouldn't even knowingly TOUCH one of the pills!!!!! (Hmmmm is there anything else I'm admittedly wildly irrational about? I think not) Lisa & Mia!!!!! Get better soon!! Lisa, I have NO idea what... -

ARCHIVED Couple Food Questions
tom replied to Joni63's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
^^^^^ Yeah . . . . What she said! (Hi goosey!) The enzymes in the cheese are, I think, entirely milk-based and mostly just speed up the cheesemaking. Maybe a few days 100% dairy-free will be worth a try sometime soon just to see if u notice any difference. Ok, more than maybe - it's almost certainly worth a check. -

Hehe I didn't mean surprising length as much as the topic. I bet I've never told any one person such history. But, hehehe, I do realize that my near-future dating will be like a live-rounds minefield on day1 of bootcamp. It's been for-freakin-ever . . . . . I don't yet even usually remember to get a glance at the ring finger. And I can't tell ages... -

Practice what exactly? You mean talking the talk? Being a cunning linguist? I'm all over that!! Nah, she was fine for then, but not now. Oy I'm actually thinking she could be a good friend. "How Cold!"?? No no no I'm not saying it to HER, just here! It's not like she'll ever end up in this forum AND crack the code that reveals... -

Well, "Marbles", that wasn't entirely true, but it's not like this is the SeriousYak thread!! No one seriously believed I had one word answers did they? But I *did* mean to answer this yesterday!! Also earlier today, but no time to find it! 1st off, it's changed already. Didn't I mention that on my last SJ trip I had 2 dates? Mei both... -

Gah! I'm in a "badmouth wiki" phase since reading it claim that gliadin is also in rye & barley, in addition to the (hey .333 in baseball is good!) correct wheat. Hoo boy, my post on it was just a grain of sand in an endless beach of misc topics. It was on what we call the OMG thread, currently 1400+ pages long w/ over 20,000 posts....

Does no one remember that nikki post? You aren't all still hooked on SoyDelicious fake ice cream are u? Will no one ever acknowledge that a 3 or 5 or 7 or 9 day food elimination test really may not always be long enough? Ok - now to the point . . . . . . .how is it possibly the job of a phone surfer to "find it"!!!!!!!!? :P You mean... -

Aaaargh!! That's like calling rice "gross". The majority of the flavor is from what is prepared w/. If we want to talk unappetizing, who else ate puffed millet every other morning for 18 mos or so?? It even *feels* like styrofoam packing material!! <blech> -

Not sure what we're talking about. Are those glasses new? Oh good! At least NOW I know!! I suppose the nearly tragic warranty-invalidating full-mouth water ejection was primarily from surprise.

Ahhhh, the 'chocolate bar & nylons' of the New Millenium!! I don't get how an iPod owner doesn't already HAVE the cord!! And Dingy!!!!

Certainly some good info here Laura. Don't the researchers admit that 10% (or was it >15%) of biopsy-confirmed celiacs don't have either gene? It says both "early in the disease" leaky-gut starts and later claims it's likely that leaky-gut is a cause? Or a "cause AND a consequence"? How can this be? And why the heck would...

Me too.

Ack!! You didn't pick the best of threads to quote from. I participated in that thread, or maybe only saw same misinformation in another thread, and some things are very wrong in that quote. For one, they called it Celiacs!!!! No "S" people!!!!!! It is Celiac!!!! But non-trivially, it claims that every celiac has whole gluten molecules getting...

Yikes!!!! "Well-defined"??????! Far from it, I say. A well-defined disease is easily dx'd. Not avg 11 yrs to find. The very USE of the phrase "gold standard" is an example of an extreme misnomer imho. Isn't everyone aware of how hit & miss the procedure can be? The phrase "gold standard" implies not only certainty but also a degree...
