  1. 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.
  2. 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...
  3. 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.
  4. 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
  5. 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.
  6. 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
  7. 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...
  8. 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...
  9. 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...
  10. 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.
  11. 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...
  12. 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...
  13. Yep - big pumpkin shortage here in the Midwest, too. Please share the recipe - squash pie sounds delicious!
  14. I second the EnviroKidz recommendation. They are quite tasty - especially the peanut butter variety (kind of reminds me of Reese's PB cups cereal).
  15. 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).
  16. Panic attacks are definitely common around these parts For me, it is one of the longest lasting side effects of a glutening.
  17. 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!
  18. Part of the problem is I cannot find an ingredient list. I did not purchase a package of them.
  19. 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.
  20. 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...
  21. 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.
  22. 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.
  23. Thanks! I am going to add them to this week's grocery list
  24. 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?
