    Just wanted to make a correction. My father got sick at Chili's not Outback. He has never gotten sick from Outback. There was a Melting Pot semi-close but they closed. My family went there last year for a family function but, I was unable to attend. I don't recall if it was prior to or after my father being diagnosed though. I think it was after but...

    Some people have an issue with body odor and it has absolutely nothing to do with hygiene. You're going to have to narrow down the actual source of the smell. I don't mean what's causing it, I mean where it is physically coming from. I don't know exactly what "awful" means in this case but, even a person's mouth, sweat, etc. can smell like actual feces...

    Absolutely not and, I don't even have a diagnosis. I won't anything out of a shared kitchen where flour isn't used much less where it is used. The only shared kitchen I would even consider would be BJ's or Outback because of how stringent they are when it comes to the issue of Celiac. However, I have a huge can't/won't eat list so that pretty much rules...

    I don't think anyone is really "comfortable" talking about their digestive system. Most people are brought up being taught that it's a private matter which is why you close the door lol. It is a private matter to some extent but unfortunately, when you have any issues with your digestive system it inevitably becomes a very public topic especially when people...

    GlutenFreeManna's post made me realize I should have pointed out that there are recipes online for "cheese" made out of nuts that vegans use to mimic ricotta and even mascarpone. They typically use a combination of "raw" cashews and "raw' macadamia nuts. Several of the recipes use soy based alternatives so, you sort of have to dig around. A lot of them...

    ARCHIVED Whey Protein

    Racer-J replied to njbeachbum's topic in Sports and Fitness

    I don't have an official diagnosis but, I was using Bluebonnet "100% Natural Whey Protein Isolate Powder". The only ingredients are undenatured whey protein isolate and natural vanilla flavor. It has a warning that it contains milk. It comes from cows that are not treated with rGBH if that is a concern. It also states that it doesn't contain any of the...

    My father has eaten at both "Subway" and "BJ's Restaurant and Brewhouse" and not gotten sick. He is incredibly sensitive and the effects can be immediate. The "Subway" he ate was apparently really, really thorough about it and took extreme precautions the second gluten free was spoken. This was apparently a very well trained staff though as my cousin walked...

    This thread sums up the quite nicely why there needs to be an actual federal law on the books about what gluten free is and what gluten free isn't just like there should be a federal law that says you have to disclose if anything was manufactured/processed/packaged in the same facility/building/production line as a top eight allergen. Thins things should...

    I mentioned in another thread that thankfully the gluten issue isn't a major one in my family since my father is a Celiac. This past Thanksgiving and Christmas, there were gluten free options for he, I, and anyone else that wanted to try them. Everything gluten free was prepared separately and was served in a different part of the house with great care...

    My father feels the same way you do about bananas. I told him how many of them I have been eating and I could hear him cringing over the phone as he said he could only eat two bananas a day if that lol. It's definitely "different" eating so many bananas in one day and it certainly isn't for everyone. I'm not always looking forward to one but, it's not...

    Most of the FODMAP lists I have looked at have bananas listed as safe as long as they are ripe (covered in brown spots with no green at the tips). This was something I recently looked into as I thought I might be having a fructose issue being the avocados have started giving my an itchy throat that almost feels like it wants to swell. I have also been having...

    Most of the posts here are from last year especially the one I wanted to address the most which was the OP. Thankfully, I don't have an issue with family or friends when it comes to gluten except for one "family" member. That single individual doesn't believe in it, thinks it's nonsense, thinks the sensitivities/intolerances/allergies I have developed...

    Nutsonline has them for $10.99 a lb (raw/organic) & $7.99 a lb (raw/organic/pieces). They also have conventional raw cashews that are slightly cheaper. However, with the cost of shipping & handling, it does approach the $20.00 a lb price so, I guess that's what you were referring to. If you ignore the cost of shipping, the price of cashews is almost...
