ARCHIVED Another Cross Contamination Question
megzmc3611 replied to sandree's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
"The main concern is touching the bagel and then licking your fingers, or touching your face or touching your safe food. My husband eats gluten and I am very careful about wiping down the counters and not getting myself sick. I don't ever gluten myself at home, but I am very careful. I watched him make a sandwich the other day. He left crumbs on the counter... -
ARCHIVED Snack Size Candy
megzmc3611 replied to annacsmom's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I can't help you with the snack size candy question, but I do know that tootsie rolls are gluten-free. I eat a couple everyday! -
Chik-filet has gluten-free french fries. They are a fast food restaurant though, found in some malls. I have gone to the one in the Burlington Mall.

ARCHIVED Need A Recommendation Boston/cambridge
megzmc3611 replied to Mtndog's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
I have eaten at the Fire and Ice in both Harvard Square and Providence Place Mall. I had success at both places. YOu just have to ask the guys/gals behind the grill to bring your food in back to cook up in a separate pan (once it is done they will bring it out front to you). Before going I emailed the corporate office and received a kind reply to do this... -
ARCHIVED Got Really Sick This Afternoon
megzmc3611 replied to happy4dolphins's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Sorry for all the questions, but do you know if the Hershey mini bags of Kissables and Reeses Peices are gluten-free? I just bought two big bags of those (at 75% off!).. Thanks! -
I get those unbearable stomach/intestine pains sometimes too! Usually I am doubled over on the ground crying for about 8-10 hours...it is just awful! I don't always get those though..and I don't know what triggers that particular response??

Do you happen to know if the mini bags of M&M's (peanut butter ones) are gluten-free? Thanks!!! -
I have been gluten-free for almost three years and still get varying symptoms when I get glutened! To the point where it is hard to tell if I have been glutened or just have a stomach bug and or sinus headache?? Last weekend I ate out at a restaurant. This entire week I have had the exact symptoms you describe....unbelievable tiredness, terrible headaches...

ARCHIVED Types Of Reaction
megzmc3611 replied to casnco's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I definitely get different reactions. Sometimes I get the most awful awful awful stomach cramps...I feel like someone is stabbing me in the intestines and stomach. Those can last for hours too! Other times I have just gotten D, headaches, and feel VERY lethargic for days. I have no idea why sometimes I get those awful cramps. They are just dreadful... -

ARCHIVED Rancho Chico In Plainville, Ma 11/4?
megzmc3611 replied to megzmc3611's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
It was great. I had chicken fajitas and they were very good! So far I feel no symptoms of getting sick and I usually would feel it by now....so I think it was a succesful adventure eating out! The place was very quiet at that time of day and it seemed the only people there were there for the gluten-free menu. Hopefully this means they will continue... -
I went to the mexican restaurant Rancho Chico (part of GFRP) in Plainville, MA this past Saturday around 1:00pm. They handed me an special gluten-free menu that was large and obviously different than the regular menu. Walking around the restaurant I noticed many other tables also had the gluten-free menu. Of course I wondered if anyone there was a member...

ARCHIVED Chocolate Pb Bar Recipe?
megzmc3611 replied to kbtoyssni's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I like them too! I think a lot of people have posted that they use them for a "graham cracker" crust... As they are not too sweet they won't be overpowering! I agree... butter, chocolate and pb will make anything tasty! -

megzmc3611 replied to IrishKelly's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
My lower tummy gets very tender when I get glutened. Usually, I will end up unbuttoning my pants during the day! It get so tender that even walking hurts (the pounding of my feet vibrating up to the belly)... Hope you feel better soon..I know it stinks -

ARCHIVED Why Do I Feel So Guilty?
megzmc3611 replied to ekdumas19's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
I think we all know how you feel! Maybe you can suggest PF Changs next time. It is right near Maggiano's and has a full gluten-free menu. Very good stuff! (of course eating out is always risky!).... -

ARCHIVED I Want To Scream And Have A Meltdown!
megzmc3611 replied to Turtle's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Turtle, I was a bridesmaid in a wedding about 4 years ago. Now this was pre-celiac diagnosis, so I did not have the food dilemma, but I had the money issue big time! First of all the dresses and shoes were very expensive. As for the shower, the bride's two sisters were the MOH's and they insisted on having the shower at a restaurant in Boston. They... -
ARCHIVED gluten-free Flour Question
megzmc3611 replied to Kirian's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Kirian, I know this does not answer your question, but I made a delicious mac n cheese the other night (tastes just like the Kraft Mac n Cheese). I cooked up a bag of Tinkyada elbow noodles. Then added milk, butter and a can of the Kraft Macaroni & Cheese Cheese Topping (it comes in a little blue can, looks just like the orange powdered cheese that... -
Do they taste like Bit O Honey's too? Those are my favorite candies! have you tried the Vanilla Whey protein powder? I am wondering how it compares to the vanilla egg protein powder (as I have had that and not the whey).. Thanks!

Do you mind my asking which restaurant you are referring to? I am also in MA and am always looking for new, safe places to eat out! Thanks!

ARCHIVED Yea Or Nay -- Working Out After Being Glutened?
megzmc3611 replied to eleep's topic in Sports and Fitness
My joints bother me when I get glutened as well! I work out everyday..... And when I get gluten, no matter what exercise I do...my joints ache for a few days! It is amazing what gluten does to our bodies. I find it difficult to explain to others just how debilitating it can be!
