    i just checked hienikin's web site and they have changed their statement about gluten. it seems they have tested the barley ..and this statement pretty much seems like it would be ok. what do you guys think?? Does Heineken beer contain any gluten? Heineken is produced from malted barley which by barley's nature contains barley gluten. Traces of gluten...

    reading ingredient labels is a pain, but the more you do it the easier it will get. dont buy anything that lists natural flavors, spices or starch unless it is a brand that has policies of listing all wheat sources. i buy a lot of kraft procucts becuz they do list all gluten under "wheat: there are a couple other brands that also do this (el paso, blue...

    one more thing: if you have a blender, make milkshakes!! i use bryers vanilla icecream, frozen rasberries, or a banana and a little soy milk. they are good and filling. i also throw flaxmeal into it to keep me regular

    quick meal take a corn tortillia ( i use mission) heat it on the oven rack for 5 mins at about 350 degrees, then add refired beans and shredded cheese ( bearitos beans and kraft cheese). when the cheese is melted add diced tomatoes and sliced avacados to the top ( and sour cream if you like) it's so good and easy to prepare!! try tinkyadya pasta...

    they were definately rice noodles!! i didnt even think about the tofu maybe having gluten in it. it was my first time eating out in the 2 months that i have been gluten-free. I dont really have a problem not eating in restaurants but friends always suggest eating out. what should i say next time?? do you normally just ask if they use flour? or...

    i am the kind of person that would rather stay home then have to bother the restaurants about gluten in the food. i do not feel comfortable asking questions and explaining gluten intolerence. so i thought a tai/vietnemies rest. would be fairly safe. but i have felt sick for the past two days. i ordered vermicelli noodles with vegies, crushed peunuts, and...

    thankyou!! its good to know that i dont really have to worry about vodka!! i have noticed that i get buzzed really really fast since going gluten free!! and i thought it might have something to do with being gluten free. and i do stay away from beer. (as hard as it is )
  17. lilliexx
    so far i havnt been able to find a bar that serves smirnoff or any other gluten-free vodka, so i broke down and had two drinks with sky vodka. How big is the chance that i would have gotten gluten from grain alchohal?? is it pretty risky?? and what do you guys usually order at the bar?? (i'm a pretty strict vodka/beer drinker) thanks lillie

    thanks!! i love making caramel apples with my son this time of year and i was wondering about caremal dips. some lists state that caramel flavoring and coloring is not gluten-free. so i wasnt sure.

    i had amy's pizza last night. and added pesto and olives!! i had no reaction at all. could it have been a delayed reaction of something else you ate earlier in the day? I dont think it would be the cheese, my doctor said even lacto intolerent people can usually eat cheese and yogurt .
