When I was eating gluten, I used to get regular cravings for pizza. Most people I've talked to crave pizza very regularly, like weekly...which is kind of strange if you think about it. And it's used often to entice people to events they don't really want to go to on college campuses because people just cannot resist pizza opportunities. I thought it was interesting...

Thanks for your comment. I just sent them a long letter and included a few good points you brought up.

Jillian, I'm so glad this helped!

I want to give an update on what happened with Pespico when I contacted them regarding proper labeling of this product. I am absolutely infuriated by these companies' ignorance of this issue!! I called to inquire as to the handling of the product and was told that although there are no gluten ingredients (which I already knew), the product is exposed to...

No, this had no pasta or gluten ingredients, just cross contamination.

I cannot believe some of the posts I'm reading. Why would a few restrictions on your diet limit your social life in any way? I'm in college and everyone seems to know someone who has a gluten intolerance as well. I'm not ashamed of it; I talk about it openly so more people are aware of it and accepting of it. I've rarely gotten negative reactions. People...

I did a search on Near East products before consuming the Spanish rice pilaf I bought yesterday and came up with no complaints. I, however, have been experiencing gluten-like symptoms each time I consumed more portions of the product from the box I bought. I called the company and the customer service guy told me that while the products do not contain gluten...

My sophomore year of college I had tonsil stones in one tonsil and the crypt in my tonsil kept getting deeper and deeper. I was so insecure about it, and I had this horrible taste like garbage in my mouth all the time. I got only one tonsil removed after a few months of dealing with the grossness and the doc said it was just FULL of these sulfuric bits that...

I called the pharmacist today and I think the culprit in this case might be the temperature I've stored the pills at. I live in Florida; it's summer, and we don't run the AC. It's probably 95 degrees where my pills are and they're the chewable kind, and apparently they lose effectiveness after sitting over a month above room temperature. I don't know why...

I'm on my sixth pack of birth control, so by now I would expect my hormonal stability to continue by this point. I got on it because I had ridiculously heavy period and horrible cramping and diarrhea and fatigue (symptoms relating to the menstrual cycles of Celiacs actually). I have ALWAYS had regular cycles, never a week early never a week late, and ever...

I cut it out of my diet in February, planning to do the 2 week thing and then reintroduce it. I never reintroduced it because I stopped having stomachaches every single day and pooping out everything I ate 6 times a day and my eyes weren't bloodshot and I could spend more than 2 hours at the mall without needing a nap and I wasn't bloated every evening scared...
