ARCHIVED My Visit To Stoneheart Pizza, Cambridge, Ma
converge posted a topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
Me and my girlfriend visited the Cambridge, MA Stone Hearth Pizza last Saturday evening. From the street I could see enormous chalk letters on the window with some phrase similar to "TRY OUT NEW GLUTEN FREE MENU." Pretty cool to advertise that in such a fashion. The interior is cute, and small, there are approximately 10 full size tables. The service... -
ARCHIVED Potential Cure Getting Closer?
converge replied to Ryan T's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I feel like many of us would benefit more not necessarily from the CHOICE of eating out, or eating food we traditionally ate before the onset of gluten intolerance/ celiac. What I personally combat is how HORRENDOUS I feel when I take in even trace amounts of gluten just through cross contamination, from kissing my girlfriends lips, from maybe using a... -

Keene, NH: Fritz's Fries: A little college town eatery on main street, offering AMAZING french fries. They just recently got gluten free bread and will make their sandwiches/panini on it.

ARCHIVED If Your Biggest Symptom Is Depression, How Do You Cope With That?
converge replied to wilem008's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
If you live in close quarters with people and you get sick, tell them. Its fair. When I get sick, I can be a miserable prick. I will straight up say "I'm glutened. I dont feel good, I'm sorry if I'm cranky." That will at least warn people what is up. As far as depression... since yours is so short term, one idea would be to work on creature comforts... -
ARCHIVED Explaining Gluten Intolerance/celiac
converge replied to LuvMoosic4life's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I understand what you mean. I end up feeling like a broken record when I spend time with new people in social situations where food is involved. I think its fair to say "it makes me really sick" and leave it at that. Your family and friends will get used to it and it wont be brought up anymore. Think of it like a new tattoo. At first, it will get lots... -

bring your own food. expect to feed yourself at potlucks, DO NOT rely on other people to provide any food for you. I personally am extremely sensitive to gluten, and its just not worth getting sick over to eat other people's prepared food. a well intentioned friend is just that... well intentioned. if you didn't see it get cooked, DONT EAT IT. because...
