So excited to realize the honey mustard dressing at Outback is gluten free. I always read the part where it said the mustard viniagrette was not and thought they were the same thing. I would always double check on dressings though. I know the honey mustard at my favorite local restaurant is not gluten free . Luckily they have an amazing housemade maple viniagrette...

ARCHIVED List Your Top 10 Fav. Snacks
celiackitcat replied to GFreeMO's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Hmm, not sure I can limit myself to ten. 1. Greek yogurt with a little bit of honey. 2. Deviled eggs (I hardboil them ahead and make them as I want them) 3. Crunchmaster crackers with spinach artichoke dip. 4. Popcorn (my popcorn machine was the best Christmas gift ever!) 5. KIND bars 6. Ice Cream (especially peanut butter & chocolate) 7. PB... -
ARCHIVED Best gluten-free Bread?
celiackitcat replied to Kat70R's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Like many of the above posts, I started out loving Udi's but it has been super inconsistent lately and for the price I just can't do it. I have switched to Rudi's which is actually a little cheaper in my area and in my opinion tastes much better. I also love the Against the Grain baguettes. I make subs on them or eat them dipped in olive oil and spices... -
ARCHIVED Weight Loss
celiackitcat replied to sbloom's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I'm on the weight gain side to which was great for me because prior to my diagnosis I had lost an extreme amount of weight in a very short period of time. I needed to gain some of it back because I was verging on skeletal and it was not healthy looking. I had started to even out until recently when I started to lose weight rapidly again. Who knows? -
The What's For Dinner Tonight Chat
celiackitcat replied to jess-gf's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
No idea what to make for dinner tonight yet. Maybe chili bake topped with cornbread. But last night I made chicken and dumplings using the gluten-free bisquick. It was super tasty and even better for leftovers for lunch today. I didn't really follow any recipe and added cut up red potatoes and carrots to add a veggie component to it. -
ARCHIVED Anyone Find A Good gluten-free Product App For Smartphone
celiackitcat replied to Mizzo's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
It's not a complete listing by any means but I got the Celiaccess app on my droid and it also allows you to use a bar code scanner to check gluten free status. I hope they continue to add products but they do have a pretty good start. I also just noticed when searching for gluten free cookies that this program is great if you shop at Walmart because they... -
ARCHIVED Opinions Needed
celiackitcat replied to Roda's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I personally would have done the same thing and not taken the medication. I hate having to deal with the pharmacy regarding any of my prescriptions. Last time I needed an antibiotic, it was a generic that did not come from the normal manufacturer that I know to be safe. It was the middle of the night and I couldn't get through to anyone at the manufacturer... -
ARCHIVED Fantastic gluten-free Cake From Ikea
celiackitcat replied to Fiddle-Faddle's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
I'm slightly confused. I went to the website of the company that at least used to make them (almondy) and I don't even see wheat starch listed as an ingredient. Did the manufacturer they use change? Because these are the ingredients I see on the website: Sugar, egg white, water, vegetable fat, glucose syrup, cream, almonds, apricot kernels, egg yolk, condensed... -
ARCHIVED Udi's Gluten Free Foods
celiackitcat replied to sbj's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I just tasted my first Udi's product. Their lemon struesel muffins are amazing. I microwaved it for a few seconds since it was still frozen and yummy. I just devoured it in a few seconds. I did wish the lemon flavor was a little strong and that there was more of the sugary topping. The size was amazing and they were light and springy. Just need a little more... -
ARCHIVED Top Three Worst Gf Products
celiackitcat replied to anerissara's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I forgot about my attempt at eating the Enjoy Life Granola. It was so hard and impossible to enjoy. I felt like my teeth were going to fall out of my head. Ouch! Actually, the only good granola I found was made with gluten free oats, but I have to be careful how much I have because it seems to cause a slight reaction from time to time. May be CC since it... -
I would love to know the pricing and if anyone knows which location have the gluten free option. I'm in East Lansing and would love it. I'm hoping to head to Guido's this weekend to pick up some gluten free pizza & breadsticks but if Cottage Inn has reasonable prices (vs. $30 for a small pizza) I would definitely switch it up.

ARCHIVED Best Book About Gluten-Free Living?
celiackitcat replied to Lynayah's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I loved Gluten Free Girl and regularly try to recreate recipes from her Gluten Free Goddess blog. Such a great read because it isn't dry, it's a story and it explains a lot and just reading about someone else getting through it was very helpful for me in the beginning. -
ARCHIVED Top Three Worst Gf Products
celiackitcat replied to anerissara's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Hmm, I have quite a few of my least fave: ~Rice Pasta: It was everywhere at the food co-op by me so I had to try it. It turned into a big giant lump of mush and tasted just as good . I could try it again and maybe my tastes have changed but it was horrible and I was sure I was never going to make it. ~ Glutino Breakfast Bars: Trying to gain some... -
ARCHIVED Carrot Cake & Banana Bread Mix
celiackitcat replied to celiackitcat's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Sad, today I went back and the mixes are gone. And at the local grocery, the are $4.50 each. So sad. Made the banana bread but used strawberry-banana baby food, instead of mashed bananas. So good! -
ARCHIVED Nature's Path
celiackitcat replied to kimis's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I just bought the Crunchy Vanilla Sunrise and have yet to try it but it looks great. I love Nature's Path, Mesa one so I'm hoping this is just as good. I just have to run and buy some more soy milk so I can try it. -
ARCHIVED Carrot Cake & Banana Bread Mix
celiackitcat posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
So, I ran to Sam's Club to pick up some more bottled water and a few other basics. My boyfriend was with me and wanted to take a look around. So we went down the aisles I normally avoid (like baking/cereal/etc). Anyway, in the baking aisle he asks me why I had spent $7 on the banana bread mix at the food co-op that morning. I was confused why he was asking... -
ARCHIVED Progresso Soups
celiackitcat replied to celiackitcat's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I'm heading back to the store tomorrow to grab a few more cans and to check the back of every type of soup. I feel like I might need to start sending all of you that can't get the creamy mushroom care packages with it. I made my first gluten free green bean casserole and it was amazing (now I just need to think of a topping, not sure if those French's onion... -
ARCHIVED Progresso Soups
celiackitcat replied to celiackitcat's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thanks! I bought it since the sale ended today but I was anxious about actually trying it. I guess I'll test it out this week. I'll have to go back again and look at more of the soups to find out what other one's would be okay. -
ARCHIVED Progresso Soups
celiackitcat posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Today I was wandering through our Kroger looking for Cream of Mushroom soup to try and make green bean casserole with. I randomly picked up the Progresso soup since it was on sale and the back is clearly labelled as gluten free. I excitedly picked up about six other types (none had ingredients I could see as being gluten) but none were labelled gluten free... -
ARCHIVED Gluten Free Bakery Michigan
celiackitcat replied to momofcdson's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have one suggestion but I haven't personally tried it yet as it was closed when I was down that way. Sugar Kisses in Berkley. I've heard a lot of good things about the products (they do both gluten free and vegan). I know they require 48 hours notice for speciality cakes and they are not open on Sundays (which was unfortunate because that is when I tried... -
ARCHIVED Soy Joy
celiackitcat replied to digmom1014's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Love these bars (especially the apple flavor)! I usually find them at Target in the pharmacy area. I will admit one thing confused me with my last bar, I read the ingredients and one was Parmesan cheese in a fruit bar. Kinda weird but still tastes great. -
ARCHIVED Betty Crocker gluten-free Mixes
celiackitcat replied to purple's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I'm in Michigan. I bought them at Kroger (haven't been able to find them at Walmart or Meijer) and found them in the local IGA (I think, it's a tiny store) in northern Michigan. Also, wanted to note the mixes were $4.49 at Kroger and $4.69 at the other place. Pretty decent pricing for gluten free mixes. -
ARCHIVED Betty Crocker gluten-free Mixes
celiackitcat replied to purple's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Friday I bought the cookies, brownies and yellow cake mix (I couldn't decide and I was headed to my grandparents for the weekend in a tiny town where I didn't think I would have any choices). Well, today I made the cookies. Very good but my turned out a little crumbly, may have to try it again and see if it comes out better. I also walked into the tiny... -
ARCHIVED Chex Cereals - Anyone Having Problems With The Flavored Ones
celiackitcat replied to jlr's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I love the Rice Chex and have been eating them since they became labelled gluten free. I just finished a box of the Strawberry Chex and they made me extremely sick, I thought it had to be something else so I tried eating them several times (I'm thinking it is the dyes in the cereal). I just bought the Chocolate and Cinnamon flavors to try (I have my eye on... -
ARCHIVED Angel Food Ministries Allergen Free Box
celiackitcat replied to TrillumHunter's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I don't know if this helps you, but the Allergy Free foods come from the AllergyFree Foods Company. Their website is allergyfreefoods.com; if you have more questions contacting them might be your best bet.
