We treat our kids to McDonalds once in a while but my son always just gets fries. I would like to know if there is anything else there that is gluten-free. He used to really like McChicken sauce and Sweet and Sour sauce with his fries but are they gluten free? What about hashbrowns for breakfast? Thanks!

I purchased these for my son, 12, to take and emailed them just to make sure they were gluten-free. Turns out they are NOT. So frustrating b/c who would have thought THAT ingredient contained gluten!?!? Dear Ms. Scott, Thank you for taking the time to contact us regarding the gluten content of One A Day

My son is in middle school this year and they have cooking class next semester. I'm leary of letting him take this class that is scheduled for them. If I remember our cooking classes correctly there was flour EVERYWHERE!! He won't eat anything in the class but everything is contaminated with flour including I'm sure, the air. Being a 12 year old boy,...

My son will be needed braces in about a year. We had an appointment with the orthodentist (only one) that comes to our community. I told him my son has Celiac and we'd need to be certain the products he uses are gluten-free. His response "Well he's not ingesting anything so you don't need to worry about that". WHAT!?!?!!? I was floored by his response...

I was checking out the Maple Leaf Top Dogs recently and noticed the low sodium Top Dogs did not have Wheat listed like all the others did. I know another lady with Celiac in town who eats them all the time and doesn't react.

I called Starbucks regarding the vanilla bean fraps that my son used to love to have (and it's summer and we stop there often) and they kept saying it's not gluten-free due to cross-contamination. I then asked "are the ingredients gluten-free??". I don't understand, I've watched them make them and the only thing I can see that would be cross-contaminated...

Thanks Paul. I looked on the KNORR website and I see OXO listed. Do you know off hand if those OXO packets are gluten-free? Also, when I looked at all the ready to serve Tetra packs of any manufacturers Chicken Broth they all looked fine to me. But when I called, none of them are gluten-free. What is in them that is making them glutened? Just curious...

I really want to make cream of broccoli soup but need to find a gluten-free chicken broth or the bouillon cubes. Are there any common brands out there that are actually gluten-free?? I've called Campbell's and their broths are not gluten-free. If not what are some brands of broths or cubes sold as gluten-free that I could find in the health food store...

ConAgra -- be careful. I had a VH Teryaki Sauce that looked safe but I called just in case and sure enough the VINEGAR I questioned them about was Malt Vinegar!! They don't always state a gluten ingredient. This right after the lady tells me that they will list all glutened ingredients on their labels. It angers me that companies can't just say what kind...

I just wanted to share a recipe I've been using lately. Like everyone else I've tried numerous recipes and they haven't worked or came out tasting nasty. 1 egg 1/3 cup egg whites (I used the milk carton kind) 1/4 cup canola oil 1/4 honey 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar 1 1/2 cups warm skim milk (I put in microwave for 2 min and by the time I'm done...

My son,10, was just diagnosed Thursday evening and we started gluten-free yesterday. For us it's changing our kitchen. I'm going to eat gluten-free too and my daughter will eat gluten-free at home. My husband will eat mainly gluten-free but still have his stash of a few things he really likes. I went through the cupboard last night and got rid of all...

I know we're to avoid hydrolyzed vegetable protein but I'm confused if it states "SOY". Does it mean avoid EVERYTHING with "hydrolyzed __ any vegetable source__ protein" or just avoid the ones that say only "hydrolyzed vegetable protein"?? Sorry, just learning so probably a dumb question The VH Teriyaki sauce in Canada contains: sugar, water...

Update on us! Well we got really lucky with our local surgeon. He had a lot of OR time this month as another surgeon is off so we were able to have the scope within 2 weeks of our appointment! I work in the hospital so I asked if I could also watch the whole procedure and the answer was NO PROBLEM! It was really neat to see first-hand the things going...

With my son's 2 biopsies, they did find other issues....apparently not related to Celiac (somehow???). The first time they discovered ulcers and the second time they discovered redness and inflammation. He is STILL undiagnosed due to negative biopsies and is going in for his 3rd scope next week with a different surgeon/(he's had 1 each year). Once they...

WOW! Thank you for your responses. My son is 10 now and has been type 1 since he was 4. He never had the TTG run until just 2 years ago b/c we had switched endo's shortly after diagnosis and I guess she had assumed that someone had tested him already. I don't feel my son has any of those symptoms listed. He is a really good kid, is excellent in school...
