The problem with Gluten-Free Watchdog is that you have to pay to get the information, and any test they run may show that the product is Gluten-Free at the moment they test it. However, they cannot test a large enough samples of any product to ensure year around safety. They give you a false sense of security. Maybe the box on the shelf right next to the...

Gluten free frozen pizza
Scott Adams replied to Steve Elliott's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
This article we did a while back might be helpful: -
Of course it's possible that there could have been a problem with a batch, but it's unlikely. Large companies tend to do a better, and not a worse job, of making sure that their products are gluten-free, once they decide to add "gluten-free" to their label, and this is due to their larger liability. However, her reaction could also could be related...

Johnson Sea Products of Coden, AL, is recalling its 12oz package of frozen “Home Style Crab cakes” because they contain undeclared ingredients of wheat and soy. People who have allergies to wheat or soy run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products. The recalled “Home Style Crab Cakes” were distributed in reta...

One Celiac Man's Harrowing Covid-19 Survival Story
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Additional Concerns
Yes, the Kentucky newspaper defined celiac disease as "being allergic to wheat," but not the guy with celiac disease who is the subject of the article. This fact doesn't, in my opinion, detract from the man's story, or the overall article. Having been involved deeply with celiac disease for 25 years now, I think I understand that you may feel strongly about... -
Is Covid-19 Risk Higher in Celiacs?
Scott Adams replied to Monica2222's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
So far I've not seen any studies that show that celiacs are more (or less) susceptible to Covid-19. We did do an article on this which recommends that celiacs may want to consider getting their pneumococcal vaccination, which is a recommendation anyway, even before Covid-19: Also, there is a study where doctors are asked to report Covid-19 outcomes... -

I think if your employer really cared they'd require, and supply, masks. Transmission of Covid has been shown to be airborne. It was documented in S. Korea after re-opening bars and clubs there that a single person without symptoms transmitted the virus to over 100 people while bar hopping. Needless to say that they country closed down all clubs and bars...

It’s got to be frustrating, but there are a lot of people who might feel lucky now just to have a job and regular income, so if there is a silver lining perhaps that’s it. Given the working conditions you described you will need to be extra careful, which I’m sure you are. I assume you’re wearing a mask, hopefully N-95 grade, washing your hands frequen...

Agreed, if a worker puts a tag on the wrong item it could be a liability.

One Celiac Man's Harrowing Covid-19 Survival Story
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Additional Concerns
I’m not condoning it, but he was very I’ll, and that’s what he ate...he had celiac disease, right there in paragraph 1. Again, he may be one of the ~25% of celiacs who regularly cheat, or this may have been a one time thing based on the belief that he may die, we just don’t know. He indicates he had lost over 15 pounds, was having issues eating, AND ”H... -
One Celiac Man's Harrowing Covid-19 Survival Story
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Additional Concerns
Might be better to look at it like he was considering the McDonald’s meal as his last. Under such circumstances he may have wanted it over a gluten-free meal. What would you eat if you thought you might die? Still not advisable by Celiac.com or any doctor, but hopefully none of us ever end up in his shoes and are faced with such a choice.- 20 comments

I do recall the "gluten-free" signs, and even sections, which are still in some markets. It did make things easier to find, and I also wonder why Amazon would stop this practice. Perhaps there are so many more gluten-free products now than there was 10 years ago? That would be my guess. We also now have gluten-free on labels, as well as certified gluten-free...
