    It seems that the Kosher community has discovered some Quinoa is being dried covered by barley &/or oats. Read these 2 links for info. Open Original Shared Link On this link, scroll down to hwere you see the article post on Feb. 23,2012 Open Original Shared Link

    Dani thanks so much for the alert on the Quinoa! I found some info. on it. Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link This should be posted in a new thread to the entire board not just the dh area. I don't have the time this minute but will get to it later when I do. HOWEVER ---- If someone has a moment now to post it in a new thread in...

    YAY! Happy dance. Thank you Prickly! You are very good at finding things. And I just thought of something..... I could swear that this morning I saw on one of the sal lists that fresh tomatoes were okay but canned were not. Saw the discussion about it & I must have been hallucinating b/c you're right --- all the lists list it as high sal be it fresh...

    I wouldn't recommend it. DH tends to flare in places where you get wounded, scratched, burned..... You get the picture. If it were me --- nuh uh!

    Boy! Did I ever miss out on a lively discussion today! Where the heck do I start? IH, I echo Dani in that your "but" is welcome anytime! And NO ONE is taking this thread away from me (I own it & I'm not giving it up!) --- just kidding you know ---- all of the discussion is relevant. And why the heck can't we have a round table discussion? That's the...

    Actually Dani, I was just looking & boiling tomatoes is the only way as canned tomato products are high in sals if you're watching sals --- besides the fact that it would be a processed food. So you done good. But I'm not sure the acidity of tomatoes will go well for your mouth sores but if it doesn't irritate them then go for it! Oh no, sorry to disappoint...

    Dani, breakfast was not a glass of water. YAY! Low sal: Brown rice cake with sunflower seed butter. If you let the butter sit on the rice cake the moisture will soften it & I believe you will be able to eat it with your sore mouth. AND I had an entire glass of MIIIIIIILLLLLLKKKKKK. Gawd I love dairy! I found a local dairy who does not use iodine...

    Awwwwwwwwwww Gluten-Free. I just hate hearing that. I'm so sorry. Monster hugs! Well, I think Prickly has to be the armpit dh expert. She gives you great advice.
  11. squirmingitch
    Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to all of you. It was a loooong day. It was not ALL bad though. More on that later. I wish I could reply to each individually but time constraints..... & I'm not the fastest typist in the world. I haven't even had time to read all the sal links Prickly posted yet. But it's on tomorrow's to-do list. As well as...
  12. squirmingitch
    Yup. I'm going to have to try & eliminate sals. Sigh. Dani, I guess we'll both be eating grass along with your bunny. Oops! we better not do that ---- it might be contaminated with wheat seedlings! Yeh, I'm back to everything foodwise that was before I got the breakout after the clear up. Ya know..... the truth is... dh just plain likes to TERRORIZE...
  13. squirmingitch
    Too much!
  14. squirmingitch
    Oh My Takala! And the plot thickens eh? No oats here. The Quinoa is Ancient Harvest & the Amaranth is BRM. I was only eating the Amaranth while this latest episode had already been going on but decided to back off on it as well as the Quinoa anyway & sort of go back to square one so to speak. It isn't the laundry detergent, kitchen soap &...
  15. squirmingitch
    Yes Prickly! Thanks for finding all those lovely links.
  16. squirmingitch
    Thanks IH!

    Hopeful, 1) Funny you should mention the dog & gluten-free. My dog has been gluten-free since the day she arrived at our home as a pup; she's coming up on 5 yrs. old in June. I knew about dogs & gluten long before I knew about celiac & gluten. And last year I had to change her gluten-free food to another brand as her "gluten-free" food was getting...

    First, thank you everyone for your replies. Prickly, Wow! What a revelation! Thank you so much for the info. on the coconut oil. So it's in b/c it isn't after all high in iodine but out b/c maybe I need to watch sals. Talk about a mind bender. Yes to your question. Overall the rash is less in all ways. But (& I know you & many others can empathize...

    At this moment I'm so whacked out I'm not even sure I can write this & have it make any sense. So I begin...... My dh began subsiding almost the minute I began the gluten-free diet. And then I found that iodine is a huge factor in it for me so I went low iodine & it was like a miracle in 2-3 days. Beginners learning curve caused me to get cc'd twice...

    It sounds like you have really done your homework here on the site & reading up a lot so you can be informed. Very GOOD! I'm sooooo upset at what the doctors said to you & especially the one who said you have an "Indian Person's Disease"!!!!!!!! I don't know how you managed to control your temper upon hearing something like that! O M G...
  21. squirmingitch
    I'll check it out. Thanks.
  22. squirmingitch
    Thank you Jean but the whole point was the word "added" as to the msg. It states no msg ADDED. So they don't add any but never the less msg is in there. Please read psawyer's 2 posts righ near the top of this thread & you will understand what we're talking about.
  23. squirmingitch
    I will echo what Cara says. And say that you need to decide if you NEED to have that official diagnosis. If you don't then go gluten free & enjoy your life if gluten-free makes you feel good. If you think you will later regret not getting that official diagnosis then you should eat gluten now & until testing is finished. If you wait & decide in...
  24. squirmingitch
    Skylark, yes I read your posts seriously. I DO check products out myself before I eat them. I'm not just going to go flying out & buy something because someone mentions it. I am however, grateful when people do try to help & answer a question I have posed. I am also grateful for info. that people like you & Peter & Prickly & anyone else...
  25. squirmingitch
    I will see if I can find it. Thanks.
