    Here's an article about blue cheese Open Original Shared Link Here's a small bit from the article: From the research analysis: Analysis of blue cheese samples conducted by "Dr. Terry Koerner

    My husband has to watch the amount of sugar he eats. He can't have a bunch of sweets, a soda, ect all together or he has digestion issues.

    My husband started having issues with chicken a while back. We even went to all organic chicken and he would still have problems. We cut chicken out for almost a year and had some last night. He didn't have any issues last night. Not sure if that means the issue is going away or not.

    The smaller restaurants should have an easier time of doing gluten-free in my opinion. The amount of people to train would be less, the amount of suppliers would be less, etc. I think the problem is there are too few people who get the gluten free thing. They think it's some fad diet like South Beach or Atkins. We are very lucky to have two wonderful...

    I wonder if a few of the other items could become gluten-free by just asking for something to be held like the burgers (no bun) or some of the salads (no croutons). I'm impressed with the menu anyway. Wish we had something like that here.

    You say that you want to gain weight and I'm guessing that you are having problems gaining weight and that's why you think that you are getting gluten. Am I right? If so it may not be a gluten issue at all. My husband is very, very thin. He's as gluten free as humanly possible. (Like a post here from the weekend 20 ppm is gluten free so it's possible...

    Walmart went backwards on the gluten-free front. At one time they had lots of gluten free foods. Now a lot of things that had become staples say "may contain wheat" on them.

    I agree gotta have Udi's bread. Frozen pizza crusts (Udi's is wonderful), some canned soups, and a few frozen dinners.

    It can come and go or it can be constant. He usually does 3 meals of rice when he's not feeling well. The foods he can't tolerate aren't always right away. It took us a long time to figure out what was causing it. We'd eat the same meal over and over and over removing just one item until he wasn't sick. Then after about 6 months of no problems we attempted...

    I thought it sounded like someone who spent 5 minutes on the internet reading about gluten-free and made themselves an expert. I've read everything I can get my hands on for the last 5 years and feel I'm no where near an expert.

    The consumer affairs article is laughable. No really if you haven't read it, do so now. It may surprise trendy eaters to learn that obesity is one of the most common side effects of a gluten-free diet. My husband would love to put on weight. He can't do it.

    I don't have a child but when hubby has been glutenated I might as well have a child. When it gets bad, he goes on a white rice diet. He swears it's the only thing that soothes his tummy. It's not very nutrious but it doesn't stop the pain. When he first went gluten-free for the second time we found a lot of things he couldn't tolerate. Milk...

    Because our family is such a hodge-podge of what they can, will, and want to eat I usually do a buffet of some sort. Taco bars a good. No one realizes they are eating restricted diet food. Non-gluten-free folks can have flour tortillas, gluten-free can have their corn ones, etc. I've done pasta bars too. A couple of sauces, a couple of meat choices,...

    Here's what I found with a quick google search about Kix. Well, almost, a customer service representative told me today. Kix has been reformulated so that it no longer contains oats. However, the company has decided not to specifically label Kix gluten free nor claim it to be so, as cross-contamination is still a possibility. I

    I read my husband your post, he's the celiac in the house. He suggested the following. Go to Culver's website and find a feedback form of some sort. In the feedback form fill in the following: I'd like to thank Culver's for providing gluten-free options on their menu. I used celiac.com's world-wide community to help find options for myself. As a newly...

    Her heartburn is a side effect of having a baby growing in her stomach not the food she is eating.

    Prilosec is gluten-free. My best advice is go to Walgreen's and ask the pharmacist. They have a list, or should have, of over the counter gluten-free meds. I know ours called the makers to verify that Prilosec was indeed gluten-free.

    Cheesecake would be iffy because of the crust but true cheesecake is crustless, it's baked to form a crust by itself. Buffalo wings, if made the true way would also be gluten-free. Baked chicken wings tossed in red-hot sauce (Tabasco) and butter shouldn't be an issue. Red Lobster used to be connected to General Mills. It doesn't surprise me they are...

    Low Carb doesn't mean that it's gluten free. I have low carb wraps for lunch but my celiac husband can't eat them. One of the main ingredients in them is wheat gluten.

    My hair dye. I use the same products that salons do and there it was wheat protein.

    I didn't think it was gluten but am curious as to what it might be so we can avoid it. He has the same problem with wild rice which is gluten free also. I'll do a search of the site and see what I come up with. Thanks!!

    We were willing to say it was something else until we did the food journal and it only happens when I use Tyson chicken. We did bare chicken breasts, baked potato with butter. Once with Tyson and once with Pilgrim's Pride. Reaction happened only with Tyson, nothing else changed except the brand of chicken. Chicken Cordon Blue with Tyson chicken causes...

    Has anyone had an issue with RAW Tyson Chicken breasts? My husband doesn't have a typical gluten reaction. Instead he has an almost allergic reaction. Hives, slightly itch, antsy, overall not feeling well. When he has came in to contact with gluten he has GI issues and that has been his typical reaction to gluten for many, many years now. I'm curious...
