Count me in. I take Synthroid daily. I go to my doctor every 6 months to regulate my dosage. I was diagnosed several years before being diagnosed with celiac however I'll never know if the thyroid problem is a result of the celiac, or if I would have developed it regardless because thyroid problems run in my family. My guess is I would have had a thyroid...

ARCHIVED What To Eat When Your Tummy Hurts?
jkmunchkin replied to skinnyminny's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
When I feel yucky I tend to favor tea (regular or peppermint) and white rice. This may sound crazy but I still lean towards a bagel (gluten free ofcourse) when I feel sick. I'll toast a Glutino bagel and put some peanut butter on it. Hope you feel better soon. -
ARCHIVED Elizabeth Hasselhoff - The View
jkmunchkin replied to Lisa's topic in Publications & Publicity
I've never watched the show, but I just sent Elizabeth an e-mail. Since she is in NY I told her about Babycakes so in the future she can get a cake for her daughter and also told her about the Namaste chocolate mix for a potentialy better do it yourself mix. -
We are going to Boulder Creek in a couple weeks for a very informal bithday dinner. I know it's mostly steak so I shouldn't have to much trouble, but wondering if anyone has any experience with them.

ARCHIVED Another Passover Question
jkmunchkin replied to jkmunchkin's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thanks!!! My chorset and I thank you deeply Ok, funny story. The first time I ever got drunk was on Manischewitz wine at my Grandmothers house on Passover when I was 4!! I really enjoyed the wine, (in my defense I was 4 and it really does taste like grape juice). My brother however was not a fan so I asked if I could finish his, and he gave it to me... -
ARCHIVED Ham, Sausage And Salami; When Are They Gluten Free?
jkmunchkin replied to Guinsell's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
For salami I know Boars Head or Hebrew National are gluten-free. Sausage I use Premio And ham I stick with Boar's Head. -
ARCHIVED Dunkin Donuts/baskin Robbins
jkmunchkin replied to amybeth's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
I drink their tea pretty often and never have a problem. And actually they don't really make any of the donuts at most locations. My cousin owns a bunch of them. Usually a bunch of DD in a geographic area are owned by 1 person (or persons) and there is one store that makes the donuts for all the locations they own. The only thing that happens in the... -
Thanks!!! The most simple solution ever and it took me forever to think of it! I hear ya though, of all the things to consider throwing in the towel for I was thinking the same thing. How sad!! LOL!

ARCHIVED Favorite Shopping Place?
jkmunchkin replied to lisaemu's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I tend to do a combo of shopping at Whole Foods, Trader Joes (for Chicken Taquitos only - which seem to be Gluten free again); and my favorite is Mrs. Greens. I think they are only in the NY metro area. I've been meaning to get to Westerly because I hear they have good prices, but so far Mrs. Greens is my fave. -
I was just going to post that I found a gluten free matzoh but see others have found it. I've certainly splurged for gluten free foods before but I draw the line at paying $30 for matzoh. So I was thinking well how am I going to eat my chorset. I look forward to that every year. And then I realized, OMG I'm retarded. Plain rice crackers ofcourse! I mean...

ARCHIVED Another Passover Question
jkmunchkin posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Does anyone know if the Manischewitz Concord Grape Wine is gluten-free? I called the company but their wine is actually made by another company that liscenses out the company name. I left a message to find out but figured maybe one of you guys know. My absolute favorite Passover food is used making this wine. I already came up with a solution how to... -

ARCHIVED Is There Any Frozen Food Luches/dinners
jkmunchkin replied to Moongirl's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Amy's has lots of frozen gluten-free meals. But make sure you check because not all are safe. And Bell & Evans is coming out with chicken nuggets. -
ARCHIVED Ignorant Server Of The Day
jkmunchkin replied to floridanative's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
Oh man this sucks!!! Where'd you go so I know to avoid it. This reminds me though. Awhile back you were asking about Mexican. Well we went to Santa Fe the other night (in Tarrytown). Great experience!!! I ofcourse asked about the chips on the table (they throw them in the fryer), and then ofcourse checked 900 times that my dish was made with corn tortilla... -
Wow some of these are crazy!!! Mine pales in comparison to some of these. I had correctly self diagnosed myself for H Pylori. Went to the GI for an endoscopy to 100% confirm the bloodtests where correct before starting the meds. Ofcourse I told the doctor that in addition to this new development that in all honesty I'd been nauseaus for about the last...

ARCHIVED Ben & Jerry's!
jkmunchkin replied to penguin's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
OHhhhhhh, lets go together!!! That is the one by me also. I'm like a block away. I usually try and go later in the afternoon, around 3:00 so it's not lunch time. Line usually isn't bad then. -
ARCHIVED Mama's Italian Restaurant
jkmunchkin replied to lauriel234's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
YES, and it is completely worth the 1 1/2 drive!!!! Where do you live? It also takes me about an 1 1/2 to get there. I'm in Westchester. I've gone twice now. Love it!!!! John is the owner and is so incredibly nice. Last time we went he was busy so I didn't want to bother him, but the first time we went I went up to him when we were done and thanked him for... -
ARCHIVED Ben & Jerry's!
jkmunchkin replied to penguin's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I love free scoop day!!!! Ben & Jerry's is really good about listing their ingredients. My favorite flavors there are Chunky Mokey and Cherry Garcia (used to like Mint Chocolate Cookie). -
ARCHIVED Pampered Chef Pantry Items
jkmunchkin replied to angel-jd1's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
So ironic, just yesterday my friend just suckered me into hosting a Pampered Chef party for her at the end of the month. -
ARCHIVED I Had Real Chinese Food!
jkmunchkin replied to jkmunchkin's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
LOL!! I've never thought to eat there.. and they are a couple blocks from where I work. I think I could convince a few co-workers to go on a Friday lunch, or CeliaCruz what do you say the next time you are near 4TS?!! Work has been crazy for me the last couple of weeks so I don't want to commit to Risotteria on a Tuesday and have to cancel. But you guys... -
I actually don't like Coldstone Creamery. I find there stuff has a freezeburnt taste to it. But regardless I wouldn't eat it. Since they mix everything up right there on the slab I feel there would be way to much risk of cross contamination. I'll stick with Haagen Dazs

ARCHIVED Bell & Evans Gluten Free Chicken Nuggets And Tenders
jkmunchkin posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
So I heard a few months back that Bell & Evans was going to start making gluten-free chicken nuggets that would be sold at Whole Foods. I've been checking religiously when I'm at Whole Foods and had yet to see them so I called today. Happy to say, they left me a message saying that they are producing their first batch in the next week and will start shipping... -
ARCHIVED I Had Real Chinese Food!
jkmunchkin replied to jkmunchkin's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
YAY!! Field trip to Rye Brook. Ok when we going? CeliaCruz & Mookie, if you want to take the train to me I'll pick you up and we'll go there. It's like 15 minutes from me -
I actually knew about this place and the whole Belgium thing. Wish I remembered it was there Saturday night/Sunday morning - lol!!!

I find this so funny that there is a place called NY Fries. Are we known for our fries? And ummm do we actually have one in NY, cuz' I've never seen one. LOL!!
