  1. I find it hard to believe this happened! If it did she needs a new set of friends. I've heard of people asking for a taste but never getting mad if they say, "not this time."
  2. I have not been to a McDonalds in years but I know the one local to me, when I was first diagnosed told me that they sometimes put wheat things in the french fry fryer.
  3. Ok, good to know. I was agree with your comment about the nightshade plants (potatoes, tomatoes, etc). I eat them all the time.
  4. I'm with Scott I eat nightshades with no problems, I've been gluten-free for 25 years and I feel great. I would not however trust McDonalds french fries. I know a lot of places we go we ask if the fries are gluten free and they say "yes." Then we asked if they are fried in a fryer with gluten things and the answer is often yes. I really only trust places...
  5. I've been in the mood for a "hamburger" type meal on and off this summer. I've tried a few gluten-free veggie burgers and I take a bite and the burger (not the bun) falls apart. Grrrrrrrr. Does anyone know of a veggie burger that doesn't fall apart? Thanks! Susan
  6. My daughter was diagnosed at 14 and now at 26 I can tell you she has a full and active social life. She drinks gluten-free beer, wine, Tito's vodka (I'm making her sound like a big drinker, she isn't!) you can drink being gluten-free. I was diagnosed before anyone knew what it was. There was no gluten-free food and very few restaurants would help me...
  7. I have Celiac, eosinophilic gastroenteritis and a ton of food allergies. I was not diagnosed with Celiac until I was in my mid 40's but had GI problems for a good 10 + years prior, so that may have contributed to my other problems. Susan
  8. I just bought my bottle at the Stop and Shop on Cape Cod, MA and my ingredients are the same as what Elonwy posted above. NO malt listed at all. Also I've used it many times with no problems and I react severly and swiftly! Susan
  9. Oh don't worry I'm staying gluten free, I get so sick every time I accidently get glutened. I'm just down, I guess, about having something else wrong with me. Eosinophilic gastroenteritis is rare so there are not big groups and such like there are for celiac disease. I joined the Yahoo groups for it and every single post is just a "pray for me" post, they...
  10. Just for the record I've been gluten free for 1 year and 3 months. I felt great for the first few months and then symptoms started to return, not to mention new ones. I don't like drugs either but I've felt so terrible lately that I'm at a point where I'll try them. I've also got 6 small ulcers in my stomach. I'd like to think this new wrinkle is...
  11. I posted about the results of my endo. and colonos. and I didn't get any comments at all. But I have since found out what I have is Eosinophilic gastroenteritis. This is on top of Celiac. It means I will have to elminate more food from my life, take steroids, and general I'll be a lot sicker then I thought. Is anyone else dealing with...
  12. Fritos make me sick every time I eat them, I'm not sure why but they do. susan
