    I don't blame you for not wanting to feel ill! The question I would have is would you be willing to stay on a strict gluten-free diet for the rest of your life without an "official" diagnosis? That's not saying there's a guarantee you would get a diagnosis even if you went through all testing. But a few months or years down the road are you going to regret...

    No problem whatever this thread turns into. Hopefully there'll be more recipes posted, too. LOL I definitely had GI issues. The reason I went the whole nine yards with testing is that I knew my daughter had problems with gluten, too (at one time several years ago she saw a naturopathic doctor, who did the saliva test). I figured if I didn't take...

    The good news is that if you don't have an issue with gluten, nothing will happen when you go back to it. Your body will let you know and probably rather quickly.

    I'm waiting to hit the lottery!!! I want a knock-your-socks-off bread recipe...still searching, still tweaking. Thus far nothing I've tried has measured up to expectations but generally I do make things that are at least edible.

    I'll add: SoftSoap, which I use in my shower at at the sinks Suave shampoo and conditioner Colgate Total toothpaste Blistex Medicated Lip Balm (in the blue-green tube) CeraVe lotion or moisturing cream (Wal-Mart has it) Mabelline Great Lash Mascara and I just bought Garnier Ultra-Lift Moisturizer.

    Woo hoo! Another bread baker is about to join the fray! I have several size pans...the standard 9x5" el-cheapo pans from Wally World, some ancient glass Pyrex loaf pans, a couple of 8 x 4-1/2" Norpro pans from Amazon and a 9x4x4" loaf pan made by USA Pans. I've been using a spring-loaded ice cream scoop to make hamburger buns in a muffin top pan...

    Do you have access to an Asian market? Sticky rice flour is also known as sweet rice flour or glutinous rice flour. I haven't tried it for gravy as I'm not much of a gravy person. I should try it when making a curry as that would definitely need a roux (at least in my not-so-authentic curry recipe). I have used cornstarch to thicken sauces and find...

    The label on my Great Value Half & Half says it's a "Naturally Gluten-Free Food".

    I have some Great Value Half & Half and it does have carrageenan in it (I don't have any heavy whipping cream).

    My daughter buys it at Whole Foods (the Cherry Creek store)...fresh gluten-free bread is on the rack with the regular bread. She said parking is a pain at that store. I didn't ask if she saw the hamburger buns there.

    I'd love to taste Udi's fresh bread. Can't even begin to imagine it...but then if I did, I probably wouldn't be doing all the experimenting I'm doing. At least I rarely, if ever, bake bricks any more. No Whole Foods or Trader Joe's around here (no Wegman's either). The hamburger buns I baked aren't bad. I think I could have pushed the rise a bit...

    Well, rats!!! No baking adventure right now then. It's good that you got on the phone and that they are replacing it. It's a wise decision to send it back and not take a chance.
  13. sa1937
    If I had a Porsche, I might polish it, too. Yep, fresh. I bet it's a lot better than our frozen. And there are also a few Udi's restaurants or sandwich shops (not sure what they call them). Udi's also has a presence at the farm market. Their gluten-free bakery is located in Denver. Open Original Shared Link Colorado is a gluten-free haven...I...

    Fantastic! Time to bake this weekend!!! So did you go shopping last night? The mixers are packed very well so I'm sure you won't have a problem. I logged into my account and printed the invoice from there. I actually emailed Amazon to inquire about an invoice since I get one with most any piddly item I buy. And you'll need the UPC code, I think,...

    I just knew you had the super duper model. lol I have no idea what the motor is made of but my attachments are metal...not stainless steel but look sort of vinyl clad...sounds like I'm describing windows. I bought mine in May a year ago and so far, so good. My daughter has a classic model, I think, that they got for a wedding gift 22 years ago but she...

    Hmmm...that's interesting. Maybe you can have yeast then since Rudi's bread does have it.

    I bought the KitchenAid Artisan model, which meets my needs nicely. Love2travel is a major foodie and I believe she has a high end pro model. Amazon really kicks the prices around on KitchenAids. There's a $30 rebate now on certain models (including the Artisan).

    Crunchmaster chips are good (not sure they can be called a chip or a cracker since I don't have any right now). I prefer the original flavor. Lays Stax potato chips are marked gluten-free on the container. I've been buying Utz potato chips but don't think they're available nationally.

    Some brands I like are Johnsonville for Italian sausage, Jimmy Dean for breakfast sausage and Hillshire Farms for Kielbasa and other sausages. Of course, I read the label each time I buy any sausage.
  20. sa1937
    Yeah, Marc did a lot of research before choosing a mixer. Now he'll have to share newly discovered recipes with us! Also check out the links Ginsou and Simona have posted...those breads look yummy, too. I haven't bought Udi's since June when I started to strictly bake my own bread but I will buy some of their hamburger buns to try them (if and...
  21. sa1937
    We'll expect a full report, Marc!!! So you better get those baking goodies as you know you'll want to play with it right away. Don't say *failure*...think of all the yummy goodies you'll be able to bake!

    Rice is generally safe but then some people have problems with it, too. Personally I don't have a problem with rice.

    I've had corn on the cob twice this summer and it did not like me. I felt fine after I ate it but had issues the next morning. This was fresh corn, not processed or handled by anyone but me. I've thought it could possibly be too much fiber but otherwise I haven't a clue. No problem with cornstarch, corn flour, etc. so I'm clueless.

    ARCHIVED Lunch Ideas

    sa1937 replied to staci002's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    Staci, you might also check this topic for school lunch ideas Just because they are suggestions for children's lunches, doesn't mean some of them won't work for you, too. You might even want to use the google search button on the top right of your screen and search for lunch ideas. Your lunches could very well end up being the envy of the office. ...
