  1. I know this post is super old but it's still searchable on Google so I thought I would update it a bit. I went to Great Wolf in Grand Mound two years ago and while they were knowledgeable about gluten allergies and did what they could, I was left wanting. Especially after paying the exorbitant amount for the breakfast buffet. But I am planning on staying...
  2. Thank you to everyone who responded. First off, my vitamins are okay, my prescriptions, with the exception of one that said they add no gluten ingredients but can't guarantee anything, are ok. I check everything that goes into my shopping cart every time. Even if I buy it every week. I have considered other intolerances, but if that is what it is then...
  3. I forgot, we have also been eating a ton of Sour Patch Kids lately, but the ingredients looked okay.
  4. I know I have seen a post like this before, but now I can't find it. My son and I have been gluten free since January and we were doing well for months. Now for the past month it seems we are constantly on again off again with symptoms. I pretty much feel like I did before I stopped eating gluten. I have indigestion EVERY time I eat. I am miserable all over...
  5. I replaced everything, but I had scratched teflon anyway, which I knew wasn't safe for anyone. If you have stainless steel it can be scrubbed with steel wool. And so can glassware. If you see those burnt on grease spot on things like casserole dishes, you can bet there is gluten in it. At least scrub well, replace anything scratched like teflon or plastic...
  6. So this is the first time I have been glutened and been sure. I have felt some of this once before, but it was the first time so I wasn't sure because I was still healing at that time. This time my son and I ate the same thing (Ruffles actually so they must have been CC'd) and we both had symptoms. He broke out in hives which is typical for him (nope, not...
  7. I was wondering if anyone else has this? I have only been gluten free for about a month now so I am still not positive of my reaction to being glutened. I used to have stomach cramps and D about once a week and it was bad so I thought that would probably happen when I got glutened. Fortunately I have not had any of these episodes since going gluten free....
  8. Thanks for your reply. I did notice after I posted the pictures that his stomach was very distended. I guess I really didn't notice it back then and it wasn't always like that, but certainly that is not a good thing. He had so many issues back then that I'm not surprised I didn't catch that. We are almost 3 weeks gluten free and he still has the eczema, although...
  9. Bob's cornbread mix is pretty good by itself, but it doesn't have as strong a cornbread flavor as most cornbreads and it is a bit denser. Here is what we like to do for dessert. We make the mix into muffins instead of bread. It doesn't require any adjustment in the recipe, temp or cooking time. Pour the batter into 12 muffin cups. I sprinkle sugar over...
  10. We got some WOW baking company cookies from the store the other day and they are magnificent. They are based in Washington where I live. BUT you can order them online. I first tried them when my friend who does door-to-door sales ran into the owner and he gave him a few cookies to try. He brought them to me because they are gluten free. I tried the Snickerdoodle...
  11. I have been gluten free for about two weeks strictly and I feel better and worse I guess. Or different anyway. I haven't had any running to the bathroom episodes which is a definate plus! I have had some gas here and there and one day of horrible nausea and stuck burps, but chances are I got glutened somewhere along the line. I need to learn to keep my fingers...
  12. I will apologize in advance for the TMI factor. My son is 2 1/2 and we are starting a gluten free diet. I have been Dx and both my kids had negative tests, but they have symptoms and we are going to do a trial (and probably continue on gluten free either way, but it's nice to know). My son has always had unexplained occasional weird poops. I'm pretty...
  13. Okay so I am not too keen on how to post pics in a forum like this, but if it doesn't work then I will post links to the pics. I have Celiac Disease and was told 4 years ago that I did not have it even though I had a positive biopsy for DH and a positive blood test. Not sure how you miss something like that, but that's besides the point. I didn't know...
  14. Just wanted to share this info with fellow Melting Pot junkies or those looking for more restaurants. I heard about a Melting Pot in New Jersey that had a gluten free menu so I decided to email my local one becuase I love them. Below is thier reply. It is a bit vague, but I believe it is a corporate wide initiative to make sure that they know how to deal...
  15. The grill is so gross really. It is so coated in grease. I tried to scrub it and it ate my Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. And it is teflon which freaks me out a bit, even not being scratched. But it is a little scratched up, not too bad. There are so many nooks and crannies too. I really just wanna throw away my whole kitchen and bring in a new one. Luckily we...

  17. I am taking the whole house with me. I feel bad for my husband though. But it would not be good for my stress level to keep gluteny things in the house. I tend to obsess about these sorts of things. I would have constant worry. I don't heat plastic in the microwave either. I don't even like to use plastic, but it is way cheaper than glass. I never thought...
  18. Just need your opinions on this one. I am already getting rid of two griddles, some nonstick pots and pans, a George Foreman 5 in1 , colanders, a nice pizza stone and other things. Still getting mixed messages about plastic/teflon/melamine. Thanks for any input.
  19. Obviously I don't know how to make a signature. Anybody have advice on that?
  20. Thanks for the replies everyone! I will try Bell and Evans for quick snacks and making my own at home when I have time. I'm glad I am not the only one who thinks Ian's are gross.
  21. So, even my 2 year old won't eat these things. I thought they would be okay. I can handle a different breading. I like most gluten free baked goods. I thought this could be great for my little nugget lover. But sadly, no. It's like they took thier nasty breading and mixed it with the chicken. With a high breading ratio. I just thought if I was going to spend...
  22. This is a couple years too late, but here is the problem with Taco Del Mar for anyone else who looks this up. They have plenty of items that are gluten free which is great. The problem is that they scoop these items up with the serving spoons, spread them all over FLOUR tortillas and then put the spoons back into the containers. Cross contamination like crazy...
  23. OOPS. This is the post I meant to reply to. Alia
  24. This is a bit late, but I just found out that Ore Ida had been incorrectly labeling thier tater tots. I don't know when it started but they listed wheat even though it wasn't an ingredient. They removed it as an ingredient and then forgot to change the label. Some of the same bags also said gluten free which is hilarious. Both were mis-prints though. The...
  25. I wanted to interject here and say that natural flavorings can contain anything, but if you are talking about a brand such as Con Agra that discloses any gluten in parentheses next to the ingredient, then natural flavors are fine if wheat, oats, barley or rye is not listed.
