    Has anybody tried these? I saw them at my health food store and it was pretty exciting to see a premade graham cracker crust option, but I haven't tried them yet. Open Original Shared Link

    Wow! Sounds awful! I'm glad that I never bothered trying it. I've only tried the 7 grain and the cinnamon raisin.

    Aw, it's no fun to miss out. Maybe eventually you can get back soy and dairy.

    Sushi is super easy if you have a sushi mat. I got one for only $3 at the Oriental store.

    Does anybody know if there's any gluten free product info on them? I looked around and so far, I've been coming up dry.

    I miss fig newtons a lot. I also miss having a good pizza. Being both gluten and dairy free, it's a challenge to make pizza. One thing that I miss, is being able to eat other people's cooking. I would like to find a celiac who would cook dinner and invite me over! It would be great to be able to eat something made by somebody else and not worry. Going...

    These carob chips are produced in a dedicated gluten-free facility. Open Original Shared Link ETA: I just read elsewhere that their facility does not handle wheat, but is not certified gluten free.

    Thanks for the replies. To the best of my knowledge, I don't think that I've ever been glutened in this fashion, but I started wondering about it. I don't want to be fanatical, but I do want to be careful. I had a situation in the past where I rewashed dishes because of seeing visible crumbs sitting on them. I guess that common sense is the best guide...

    Vegan gluten free buns are not really common to find. I can see why buying commercial wouldn't be an option. Even if you wanted to provide a gluten free wrap, the teff wraps have no eggs in them, but still have honey and thus are not vegan. With baking, though, since flour remains airborne for many hours, it is very difficult to produce gluten free bread...

    That makes sense and is a good rule of thumb to follow. The reason why I asked this is that a friend babysat my kids for me tonight and when I picked them up, she offered me a snack. (gluten free chips from a sealed bag, a whole avocado, salsa, and grape juice) She doesn't have a dishwasher. I accepted them and used her plate but then wondered if that...

    So, I know that the protocol is wash your own dishes with separate cloths (or throw them in the dishwasher). But if you are over at your friend's house and they give you something that is definitely safe (fresh fruit, gluten free chips out of an unopened bag, prepackaged gluten free food, etc.) or you bring over your own food, will you eat off of their dishes...

    I just figured that farmer's market veggies would be more likely to have worms, that's why I asked where you bought them. I'm shocked that frozen veggies had a worm in them! I do get my produce from a farm a couple hours away via a weekly subscription box though, and the quality is awesome! If you have farmer's markets, CSA's, or similar things, it's...
  14. BlessedMommy
    Wow, what a bummer! I grew up as a farmer's daughter and I remember worms floating in our pot of broccoli and my mom skimming them off the top, so apparently worms really like broccoli. Did you get that from a regular store or a farmer's market?

    ARCHIVED Washcloth

    BlessedMommy replied to Patt's topic in Super Sensitive People

    Which thermos did you try? We tried a thermos once and had a disaster with it shattering all over. (interior was made out of glass or fiberglass, IIRC) We purchased a genuine Thermos brand made out of stainless steel this time and haven't been disappointed, it does an excellent job of keeping food warm and is durable and safe. Even picky kids will usually...

    Each doctor seems to have their own way of diagnosing. It seems like if there is a conflict between the information gained between the tests, the trial gluten free diet should be tried. I know of someone who had, if I remember right, symptoms of celiac, negative bloodwork, positive genetics, and a mildly positive biopsy, or something like that. The doctor...

    BlessedMommy replied to Patt's topic in Super Sensitive People

    Chances are very good that your gluten eaters could be contaminating you. I had a relapse of neurological symptoms, a few weeks after my kids started their gluten challenge. My kids will eat food, drop crumbs all over, and touch gluten free food without washing their hands first. Or they will come and kiss me with their sweet little gluteny lips, rub their...

    Did you actually have celiac ruled out, via a negative test? Or did you go gluten free with no testing? I suspect I could be celiac (have severe neurological symptoms from gluten) but can't get tested because there's no way I can tolerate a gluten challenge. Thus, I don't consider myself "not celiac," as much as I consider myself "not diagnosed, but definitely...

    Here is a DIY option: Open Original Shared Link

    That's up to you. I wouldn't think that frozen fruit would be a big glutening risk, though, especially since it's not even processed in the same part of the facility.
  22. BlessedMommy
    Yep, coconut oil is good. If you have any warehouse club memberships, Sam's and Costco both carry it in a large container.
  23. BlessedMommy
    Are they tasty? What do you use them in? How do they compare to the flavor of other noodles?

    One way that I keep the cost of bread recipes down is by grinding the special types of flour myself wherever possible. Certified G.F. millet bought in bulk is way cheaper than millet flour. My Vitamix makes flour out of it in about 60 seconds, so it's really not time consuming to do.

    Gluten free bread is pretty easy to make anyway, because of the lack of having to knead the stuff. I bought a bread maker and found that I barely use it, because it's easy enough just to mix everything up by hand.
