  1. I think I would speak to my doctor too, if I were ever called for jury duty. Most of my bathroom issues occur in the morning, and many times even when I haven't eaten anything with gluten lately I still have issues and I think it's nerves. I do tend to get nervous if I'm in a situation where no bathroom is available if I need it and I don't think that helps...
  2. Has anyone here with either Celiac's or gluten intolerance had to serve on a jury? I am gluten intolerant and am able to do pretty well in avoiding gluten, and the problems that go along with it. But occasionally I will eat something that causes me to "spend time in the bathroom" and I just wonder what happens if someone has those issues while serving on...
  3. I love Quaker caramel rice snack cakes, and the chocolate ones, and the apple cinnamon ones as well. They don't say "gluten free" on the front of the bag, but there are no wheat ingredients listed and for allergens it just says milk and soy. I don't have problems eating them, and since I'm counting calories they are a great afternoon snack food.
  4. I would love to order gluten-free products on-line. I went to Udi's and had 4 items in my "cart" for a total of about $25. They wanted $25 for shipping! Ouch! I'm not paying that much. I would like to order from another source, but so many of their items you have to buy 6. I don't want 6 packages of Udi bread, or muffins, or whatever. I don't have...
  5. I bought a 4-pack of Udi's Gluten Free Blueberry Muffins yesterday. I left one out to thaw, and froze the other 3. I ate it this morning for breakfast. Oh, my goodness, was it delicious!! Heavenly!! Can't have them too often, since I'm counting calories but for an occasional treat they are wonderful! Anyone else like them? I sure wish Udi's shipping...
  6. I had my credit card out and was all set to order a few things from their web site (loaf of whole grain bread, package of 2 pizza crusts, package of cinnamon rolls, package of bagels and a package of one of their granolas. But then I saw the shipping charge. Over $25 for 5 items. I know it's 2-night air delivery but I just can't spend that much on shipping...
  7. I have had the brain fogginess, forgetfulness, etc. and just thought it was menopause. But after seeing what so many others are going through, now I wonder if it's the gluten. I am gluten intolerant, do not have Celiac's. I try to stick to the gluten-free diet, but sometimes I still crave things I'm not supposed to have and I occasionally give in to those...
  8. I voted G.I. issues. If I stick to my gluten-free diet religiously then I'm fine, but if I give in to a craving and have something with gluten then I pretty much just stay home the next day (at least the morning/early afternoon) because of "bathroom issues." It's interesting to see what others are saying. I have been thinking my foggy brain and forgetfulness...
  9. I guess I just expected the gluten-free bread dough to form a well-kneaded ball like regular bread does. Shows you how much I know about gluten-free bread making and baking, ha ha! I knew it didn't have to rise, because of the gluten-free setting on the machine, but I just expected the bread to be smooth and uniform. I'm glad to hear others say...
  10. Thanks for the quick reply. I will try it with potato starch and see how it goes.
  11. Another vote for Udi's. I bought some kind of tapioca bread at the health food store when I first went gluten-free and it was horrible. I made a sandwich and could not even choke down half of it. Threw the whole loaf away. Then I bought a loaf of gluten-free bread at Meijer, I think it was made by a company called Scharr's, if I remember right. It...
  12. I recently bought a Breadman bread machine after doing some research. Yesterday I went to the local health food store and bought the different flours, xanthan gum, etc. that I needed. I was so excited to bake my first loaf of gluten-free bread this morning. I carefully followed the directions, and double-checked my amounts, etc. It was awful!! It was...
  13. I love cornbread, but stay away from it in restaurants because I don't know if it has wheat in it. This looks like a great and simple recipe, I'm going to try it this week!!
  14. I miss bread so much since I have been gluten free. I've tried a few loaves from the store and really have not found one that I just love, and I hate paying the price for them too. So I'm thinking of getting a bread machine and making my own. Does anyone else do this? What kind of machine do you have? Do you buy mixes or make your own bread mix from...
  15. My husband likes the Olive Garden for their pasta varieties, but why can't they have a few gluten free pasta choices for those of us who are gluten intolerant, have celiac's, etc.? There are so many great rice pastas, it would be nice if they would broaden their gluten free menu a little bit.
