    My great-grandma was diagnosed at the ripe old age of 83. So no it is deffinetly wrong. Also My mom was diagnosed via the gluten challenge at the age of 62.

    There is a company that makes gluten-free bunny cookies, they are like the cookie goldfish they used to make (or maybe they still make them?) Anyway, they are chocholate and vanilla mixed into one box. The company is Annie's, maybe they will work on a cheese bunny. Maybe this would be a good substitute and the other kids would want his cookies?

    No it is still within the shelf life. I just looked, still have one bottle. I only drank it cold. I tried another form of the acai berry drink and it still had that similar taste.

    I was given a case of it for free from a friend of a friend, who swore by it. I sure would have been mad if I had paid that much for it. I have had absolutely no health benefits from it. I didn't feel any different from it. I thought as bad as it tastes (kinda like soy sauce)it had to do something, so I kept drinking it. But no nothing. My acupuncurist...

    It probably is true to a degree. European wheat and or spelt does a have a lower content of gluten. But just because they were able to eat it without getting sick, it doesn't mean they aren't causing silent damage. In the beginning of my celiac I was told I culd eat spelt bread and did. If I ate one slice I was fine. But if I ate 2 slices I got the classic...

    I forgot there is also a place in Kent called Hailey's Bakery. They are 100% gluten-free baked goods.

    I know this is the teen section, but I had to speak up. I used to live in Tacoma, so I know a few food places that might be helpful to you. I too was a teen celiac, I was diagnosed over 20 years ago, back then things really sucked! Besides the normal places that have gluten-free menus. (outback, chevys, chillis) There is a place called Woody's on Dock...

    Amy's doesn't have a very good reputation for their gluten free foods. I won't touch them personally. Too many peopl have gotten sick from them, myself included.

    Lucky you. On Easter I ate ham with nothing else. Couldn't even eat the potatos au graten. I wish I could just do the cooking.

    My daughter had shingles when she was 10 years old. The Dr. blamed it on stress. I really don't think she had the kind of stress that would trigger an outbreak. Her pediatrician had never seen any kids with shingles. And they didn't make a child size pill back then, so she had to take a horse pill for even an adult. She really was in pain even though they...

    I was diagnosed when I was 13 y/o (I'm now 35). It is hard to be "different" when you are a teen, but it really is what you make of it. Knowing that shizo was linked to celiac, it was one of the major reasons I stayed gluten-free that and the stomach aches. I hated it when I told people I couldn't eat something and they would say, oh I'm sorry or that...

    My gluten-free 18 y/o daughter weighs about 160 lbs. and is 5'6". My non-gluten-free (who should be) 15 y/o son is 6'4" not sure about his weight. I think he is around 160 lbs. He is a string bean too. Me I'm 5'8 and horribly underweight at 109 lbs.(due to unrelated chronic pancreatitis and other issues.)

    This may be a dumb question, but here goes. Since they are in Colorado and at a higher elevation, would this some how effect the rising, amount of ingredients and or baking times? I know whenever I have been in high elevations things cook drasticly different for me. Could this be their secret niche for getting such great products?

    I bought 2 loaves for Christmas breakfast.(We were doing creme brulee french toast). We had never had it before then. I figured we give it a try since there is such a fan club here. We have gone through about 6 loaves since. We just went without bread before. The family can't seem to get enough. I will never buy another brand of bread again.

    I did try them but it didn't help. I am now going to a pain management specialist.

    I went through the "hungry" phase for about 3 or 4 years. I would be physically "full". I would feel like like I ate too much, but still have a hunger sensation. It just depends on how much damage you have.

    Also if you have barbells and if they are too short they won't heal well. Try useing Dr. bronner's hemp soap. It is fantastick. wroks great to heal piercings.

    The problem with oats isn't that they just get cc. It is that some celiacs react to certified gluten-free oats too. My daughter tolerates them fine. I don't, it's as if I had eaten a sandwich of wheat or similar by the reactions I get from oats. Some people react, some don't.

    Actually that is a grey area. I have brought in my own (in Seattle, it was an upscale place, however not a dive bar). It was a friend's home brewed blueberry champagne The rule was it had to be sealed (not opened prior to) and they charged a "un-corking fee".

    Fruits, veggies and whole grains are complex carbs. If you are craving sugars you are craving simple carbs, which is white rice, noodles, sugars, potatoes,etc. Basically anything that is starchy or sugars your body can turn into energy easily is not a complex carb.

    I second the Picazzo's pizza, it is fantastic. I would drive from WA state to AZ just to get one of their pizzas if I could afford the gas!

    That's a kinda scary reply. I drank that stuff for years with no problems. Havn't had any in a while. It was good the last time I had it.

    The theater is Regal cinemas. I didn't bother to ask, since it is usually kids running the place and trying to get a manager that has a clue would have to be just short of an act of god. I doubt it was cc, since my daughter is not a person who reacts to cc. We just won't eat it anymore, even if the ingredients are "safe". We got bit twice and won't try it...

    The last 2 times the family and I had popcorn at the theater all 3 of us got sick. The first time I didn't think anything of it, since we all got sick at different times. We go to the theater so rarely I didn't put two and two together until we all got sick again, this time within about an hour of one another. They definately changed something. I don't know...

    I realized years ago that most school nurses are (trying to be nice) an embarrassment to their profession. I never had to educate about my daughter having Celiac since she is older and fends for herself. But I did have to deal with a nurse who kept sending kids home because "they had head lice". My daughter had dandruff. I spent 12 hours going through her...
