    Be sure to use rice that sticks together well. I use Lundberg Farms sushi rice for my sushi.

    Do you have a sushi mat yet? Homemade sushi is so much easier to make right with a sushi mat. And they're inexpensive--less than $3 at our Oriental store.

    I actually use Earth Balance spread, not hydrogenated margarine. I only used the word "margarine" as a visually descriptive tool for the type of container I would be dipping out of, because not everybody has heard of Earth Balance non-hydrogenated buttery spreads. (which are trans fat free) Open Original Shared Link Real butter isn't an option for me...

    Interesting! I have a theory that slight CC has a cumulative effect on me. I ate at Taco Bell twice (back when I was less careful) and though my menu item was technically gluten-free (bean tostada) I'm sure that it was CC'ed. After the 2nd time, I started getting a rash.

    Penne, fusilli, and regular spaghetti noodles.

    They have brown rice pasta and also corn pasta.

    At least in our area they do. And it is $1.89 a bag!

    Not all Burger Kings have dedicated friers. It varies from location to location.

    Sure! There are a lot of different varieties of Earth Balance including a soy free version and an organic version. All of them are dairy free.

    I don't use hydrogenated margarine. I use Earth Balance spread which is non-hydrogenated. For the purpose of this question, I said "margarine" though because not everyone knows what that stuff is.

    I'm thankful for this forum. Though I started this journey years ago, there was a lot that I didn't know and I'm glad that I've been able to fill in my knowledge gaps.

    Thanks!

    Believe it or not, some DX'ed celiacs are pretty lax. I went to a food sampling once and someone announced that the gluten free people could go through first so that they could get the condiments before they got contaminated. The other gluten free person (who was a biopsy proven celiac) said, "No I don't have to do that, I'm not THAT sensitive."

    Thank you for the information. There's so much misinformation floating around, that it's good to get the record set straight.

    Don't worry, tomatoes are fine for a gluten free diet. But some people have problems with nightshades as well as gluten. (tomatoes are part of the nightshade family)
  17. BlessedMommy
    Thanks for your reply. I think that I will avoid doing so in the future, because I want to be careful.

    I'm not an expert, but I would say that DH doesn't "have" to be in any particular area in order to be DH. Sure, certain areas are more common, but it sounds like it could be DH. Will your dermatologist do a DH biopsy?

    A dietitian friend claimed the the generic term "spices" on an ingredient label could indicate hidden gluten. Is this term, or is "spices" always used to refer to pure spices with no additives?
  20. BlessedMommy
    ^Yeah, that exactly. I would do the blood test.

    Cream of potato soup with wild rice and baked spaghetti squash with non-dairy butter.

    Okay, curious to know what y'all think about this.... I normally avoid condiments that gluten eaters have used. Occasionally there's been a circumstance, though, where somebody dipped only a little bit of margarine from one end of the container and the whole other side of the container hasn't been dipped into at all. I got mine from the untouched...

    If you get set up with gluten free flour, you can make her some really great cookies. Enjoy Life chocolate chips are gluten free and are produced in a gluten free facility.

    Congratulations on finally getting a diagnosis! How great to finally know what's going on and have it be something that is treatable with diet. In the meantime, do know that it's okay to grieve and mourn the loss of spontaneity. I've been gluten free for quite awhile now and I still have days where I feel kind of sad at the loss of spontaneity and freedom...
  25. BlessedMommy
    So essentially if a person is "less sensitive" it means that their body is not finding or recognizing that miniscule amount of gluten that's there?
