mamaw replied to Guhlia's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Hi Angie P.A.N. is an import from Venezuela. It is in an orange pkg with an ear of corn on the front. I use it to make arepas ( corn cakes) It says 100% maiz on the front. If you have an Asian store or Spanish store they will most likely carry this... Again , if you can't find it I'll be glad to send you a pkg.... mamaw -

ARCHIVED Someone Reported Me For Using Toaster Bags
mamaw replied to floridanative's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I buy my toaster bags at Boscov's. They are the gold 100 use bags for $7.99, 2 in a pkg. I have never seen the 300 use one.. But I see many places sell the 10 use bags for about the same price as I pay for the 100 use bags. I love these bags..... And people should mind their own business. Maybe they thought you were trying to blow-up the toaster!!!!... -
ARCHIVED Thumbs Up For Disney World!
mamaw replied to pajamama2's topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease
Thanks Donna! Yes. the points thing is or must be the same thing. We were told or was told this was called"points" by our operator. I wasn't sure she new what to call it as she kept putting us on hold to go ask a supervisor how to to something.... Her confidence level was low & in turn I became abit scared if we actually got what we wanted...I think... -

We are going to disney at the end of April. Staying at the Ft Wilderness campground for a week. I wanted to say "thanks" to all who posted. Every piece of info is so helpful. Did anyone use the Dining Points ? I have heard that it saves money plus it is NOT extra for gluten-free meals . Then I have heard on another site that the gluten-free ones were charged... -

ARCHIVED How Likely Is It?
mamaw replied to Guhlia's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi Angie I tend to agree with you about your soulmate....But I think men don't want to hear they have a problem with anything. I don't think they have very good coping skills to deal with medical stuff...And then there's the man thing-- to macho to have this or that....I wonder what the ratio men to women having celiacs????? Another thought, do you... -

ARCHIVED Wine Barrel Contamination?
mamaw replied to faegan's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I know that small home-grown wine makers in the US usually use stainless steel. I know the larger type wine makers use the barrels.I think I would be concerned if I was totally sensitive. This would be a good product to have checked out. We make & bottle our own wine so that way we have no issue with it. Winemaking is very simple... mamaw -

Hi Penquin Glad you finally got a correct dx's . I alway feel I can live with something if I know what I'm dealing with but the unknown scares the hell out of me..

ARCHIVED Favorite Whole Grain Bread?
mamaw replied to hathor's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Hi & Welcome I agree try the bread recipe. It is very easy & tasty to boot. It stays nice without toasting. But if & when you buy gluten-free breads most of them have to be heated or toasted to regain the soft texture.. I remember the first loaf of gluten-free bread I bought!!!! I didn't know it should be toasted or heated .............I thought...
