ARCHIVED Corn Vs. Rice Pasta
summerteeth replied to rvagirl's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I like Tinkyada brown rice pasta and Ancient Harvest Quinoa pasta. Tinkyada was a lot easier for me to find. Corn pasta (DeBoles) was too mushy for my liking. -
ARCHIVED Lunch Help, Please.
summerteeth replied to hilwacat's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I like La Tortilla Factory Ivory Teff wraps. They are good with sandwich fillings and also good as a super thin crust pizza. I also make more dinner than I should so I can have leftovers the next day. I make stuff like slow cooker chicken cordon blue, borscht, Shepard's pie, pizza soup, jambalaya... pretty much anything I can make with the local sale... -
I made these cookies today and they are so good. I had never made gluten free sugar cookies before and surprisingly, they were a success! And they are so darn cute for autumn! Open Original Shared Link I used a rice and tapioca flour blend instead of regular flour. I also used walnuts instead of cashews.

ARCHIVED Gluten Withdrawal?
summerteeth replied to homemaker's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I definitely did. It has gotten better with time, but now when I get glutened, about a day or two later I can eat pretty much anything in sight - usually it is chocolate though -
ARCHIVED Gluten Free Bakeries With Online Stores
summerteeth replied to furball's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Open Original Shared Link Grandma Ferdon's our of Hayward, WI. They have the most amazing biscuits. I have never ordered from their website, but I have been to their store in Hayward. -
ARCHIVED Amusing Stories
summerteeth replied to Shess0816's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I seem to get this with just about everyone... people I work with, family, my fiance's family... Like last night I went out to dinner with my fiance (Adam) and his brother and he said "you can have flour tortillas because they aren't whole wheat, right?" Adam and I just looked at each other and laughed -
ARCHIVED Any One Hv To Drop Out Of School To Get Better?
summerteeth replied to cyoshimit's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Exactly. The myriad of complications - ie, depression, anxiety - that come with celiac disease is really what kept me down. My doctors thought I had bipolar disorder, yet it was what the medications did to me that made them realize that it was something else. Eventually after I had searched high and low for a solution, I mentioned to my doctors celiac... -
ARCHIVED Oikos Greek Yogurt
summerteeth replied to summerteeth's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Yeah that was kind of the trouble. It was one of those products that, right after my diagnosis, I figured couldn't have gluten in it... then I sent an email and found out that most flavors did in fact have gluten. Now I've gotten in the habit of emailing or calling when in doubt. After receiving this email I did try vanilla flavored Oikos... it was... -
ARCHIVED Any One Hv To Drop Out Of School To Get Better?
summerteeth replied to cyoshimit's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I had to drop out. I got through 2 1/2 years of college and the doctors visits, inability to get out of bed, ER visits, depression/anxiety, inability to sleep/sleeping all the time... it just got to be too much. I did not even know what my problem was until a little more than a year after I quit school. But, in retrospect, leaving school was the best thing... -
ARCHIVED Originally Diagnosed Ibs-d...but Maybe Not True?
summerteeth replied to Chattyaholic's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Put half of my family and myself of the IBS list. I was diagnosed with IBS-C at a very young age (age 12). It is definitely a catch all diagnosis, IMO. Kind of infuriating, in retrospect. -
ARCHIVED Oikos Greek Yogurt
summerteeth posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I saw Oikos (Stonyfield Farms) yogurts for the first time at a local store yesterday. Since I have had trouble with Dannon yogurt in the past and don't care too much for most Yoplait, I emailed Stonyfield Farms. Not one hour after I emailed them, I got this: Hello Monica, Thanks for contacting us about our gluten-free products. We know that choosing... -
ARCHIVED Gluten Free Licorace - Strawberry Or Cherry
summerteeth replied to Genna'smom's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Candy Tree makes gluten-free licorice (but I've only ever seen it online - never in any store). Also, Orgran makes molasses licorice. Also, if anyone is in the Chicago 'burbs, there is a candy store in Skokie that makes gluten free candies (including licorice) called Raising the Candy Bar. For those outside of Chicago, I believe you can order some of... -
Yep - big pumpkin shortage here in the Midwest, too. Please share the recipe - squash pie sounds delicious!

ARCHIVED Beware Of The New Formula Of Kix
summerteeth replied to Kelly C.'s topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I second the EnviroKidz recommendation. They are quite tasty - especially the peanut butter variety (kind of reminds me of Reese's PB cups cereal). -
ARCHIVED Your Favorite Throw-together Dinner
summerteeth replied to miles2go's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
La Tortilla factory teff wraps + Sweet Baby Rays + leftover chicken + onions + shredded cheese = mini BBQ chicken pizzas. Takes about five minutes to throw together and heat in the oven. I like the teff wraps as pizza crust more than the frozen pizza crust (taste better and aren't chewy). -
ARCHIVED Panic Attack From Gluten Poisoning?
summerteeth replied to meldesigns's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Panic attacks are definitely common around these parts For me, it is one of the longest lasting side effects of a glutening. -
ARCHIVED Emergen-c All Flavors gluten-free
summerteeth replied to wschmucks's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Oh that news could not have come sooner - the recent cold(er) weather in the midwest seems to have gotten everyone at work sick. Thanks for the info! -
ARCHIVED Vienna Beef Hot Dogs?
summerteeth replied to summerteeth's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thank you. -
ARCHIVED Vienna Beef Hot Dogs?
summerteeth replied to summerteeth's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Part of the problem is I cannot find an ingredient list. I did not purchase a package of them. -
ARCHIVED Vienna Beef Hot Dogs?
summerteeth posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have searched (and emailed the company)... does anyone know if Vienna Beef Hot dogs are gluten free? I ate one today (and was told it was gluten free) but I feel like crap now. I can't even find the ingredient list. I can't imagine that they have gluten in them, but I just want to rule them out. -
A little update: I have been almost corn free for a few days now and WOW. I feel 110% better! My reasoning for not eating corn was a touch superficial in the beginning (I did it because of bloating), but I have come to realize that other maladies have lessened: I didn't need a nap when I got home from work the last two days! That may or may not have...

ARCHIVED Probiotics
summerteeth replied to twe0708's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I take Enzymatic Pearl probiotics (Walgreens). Sometimes, I also take Lifeway brand kefir. To be honest, I like the kefir better, but both do help with bloat and gas. -
ARCHIVED 2 Months And Still Constipated
summerteeth replied to glutengal's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Have you tried exercising? I still get major bouts of C - I still get them at 1 year gluten-free - I make sure to work out and it seems to really help - but again, make sure to drink enough water. -
ARCHIVED Dr. Praeger's Potato-crusted Fish Sticks?
summerteeth replied to summerteeth's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thanks! I am going to add them to this week's grocery list -
ARCHIVED Dr. Praeger's Potato-crusted Fish Sticks?
summerteeth posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Has anyone had these? I really want to try them, but they are over $6 for a teeny-tiny package... are they worth the splurge?
