    Ok.....so.... You got me to thinking about Coco Pebbles. and now I really want some! And Yay! They are gluten-free, too! Open Original Shared Link

    Don't they say gluten-free on them? I don't eat them, but I thought that was the case.

    Some of the confusion may be that sometimes we say we have an allergy. It helps people & restaurants understand the fact that a Celiac cannot have even a crumb of gluten. But there really is no " gluten allergy". If it is not Celiac, you might want to check out FODMAPS. Wheat is a high FODMAPS food so being gluten-free can relieve a lot of the symptoms...

    I am not Intolerantt to soy or milk. I find the thought of getting human medical advice from an animal doctor interesting..... Edit to fix a typo

    You can get a genetic test for about $300. It will tell you if you have a possibility of having Celiac. but 30% of people have a gene for Celiac and only about 1% actually develope Celiac. so just having the gene does not mean you have Celiac. If you just want a basic Celiac panel, call Quest diagnostics and ask for the cost. Edited to add: I am talking...

    What are you referring to?
  7. kareng
    Exactly! I think you probably aren't super sensitive, you haven't really eliminated all the " normal" ways to get significant gluten.

    You could sub in Palm shortening or maybe Crisco plain or butter flavor? I don't know if the butter flavor has dairy or not.

    If you are really that sensitive, I am surprised you needed to ask! . Even for the majority of Celiacs that are not sensitive to " undetectable pms", a real kiss ( if you know what I mean ) could transfer gluten from one mouth to another.

    Are you anemic? That's common for a new Celiac. That would explain the headaches upon exercise. and explain why they are getting better as you heal.

    What I said has nothing to do with getting dust from horse food or flour in a bakery in your esophagus and swallowing it. I stand by what I have said and what I see from the vast majority of Celiacs on this forum and in my personal life - we are able to walk thought the world without getting " glutened". If you find you must wear a mask to walk by a...

    I don't know how I do either..... Especially since I can't make a good quesadilla here in Kansas! Mail me some? Lol

    Sorry to hijack your thread. I realize you are not talking about the regular corn tortillas and chips but, I think that was what the other poster was referring to.

    i prefer to get my medical info from an actual medical or scientific Celiac researcher. I wouldn't consider a blog post by a " home economist" a reliable scientific study. I'll re- quote it here again - Open Original Shared Link "There is not yet reliable data about cross-reactivity. As for the alleged possibility that many gluten-free foods or drinks...

    And if you read further :" No, our corn production lines are dedicated to corn products only. Wheat flour tortillas are produced on dedicated lines." And "All Mission® plants have strict food safety programs in place, including a very comprehensive Allergen Control Program." Many many of us eat Mission chips and tortillas without ill effect. Just ...

    You get a headache when you go outside and walk? And they go away when you have been inside for a while? Maybe you have an allergy to something outside like pollen or grass or mold?

    Most people with an actual diagnosis of Celiac are " blood positive". We are able to go into restauruants and sit by people,who eat gluten ( assuming it isn't getting into our food, of course). Sounds like you have something more than the typical Celiac.

    Bah! All this mushy stuff! Open Original Shared Link

    I saw the title and thought you wre craving this Open Original Shared Link Lol

    You are fine. It's the Dr. That said that C. Com was endorsing a product. I thought maybe this company was using the name without permission. I asked her to link us to where she saw it. She didn't reply. So she was told to not confuse us with some other company. Not sure what that was all about.....

    Tomorrow for dinner, my family is having a get together and they are making fajitas. I am going to let my husband have at it with the flour tortillas, and I am bringing a frozen dinner so I don't even have to mess with it. While the family member hosting could probably cook for me OK, would rather just not mess with it and enjoy the company.

    First, the amount of gluten in a whole beer made with barley is usually pretty small. I am assuming you mean someone spit? I doubt that would bother you. As for when you will feel like eating gluten free again? That I couldn't say. I don't think a couple of drops of beer should make you not want to be gluten free. Why are you gluten free? Do you...
  23. kareng
    I agree with Peter. I would check the store brand "Chex" . The ones I have seen DO NOT have the same ingredients and are not gluten-free.
  24. kareng
    If you are really worried about some gluten lingering in the scratches - wash well then boil a pot of water for a while. drain and wash again.
  25. kareng
    Knot sure where you live. Some of the Celiac Centers have free blood testing. You could also see if you qualify for any help? State? County? Public hospital?
