    I emailed the people at Vasoline, it is gluten free, as well as their lip chap.

    I have eaten McDonalds fries at the store near my school a couple of times with no reaction. I double checked with the workers that only fries (and hashbrowns i suppose) would go in that fryer. To be honest, I don't trust just that. BUT the fryer for chicken,etc. was on the other side of the room so that was enough to satisfy me that things were not being...

    Here is the reply I received from Starbucks (about a month ago by phone) For drinks, everything is gluten free, EXCEPT -java chips ...which are in JavaChip Fraps and Mint Mocha Fraps -2 types of Tazo Tea (which are rare tyes, not in most stores): Green Ginger and Honey Bush ...also don't get the fraps malted (obviously). Hope this...

    unfortunately we don't have the Amy's frozen rice mac and cheese in Canada...as far as I know at least. I'm pretty sure it says on their website what products are available in Canada.

    I can answer the hot dog question: Freybe makes weiners that are labelled gluten free and yummy. If you email Maple Leaf foods they will send you a nice package saying what we can eat (I can't remember off the top of my head if their weiners are ok) Kinnikinnick has hot dog buns you can buy in the frozen section. Heinz ketchup is gluten-free...

    We can't have smirnoff twists? Where did you find this out? I've been drinking them without a reaction but I certainly don't want to be having them if they are off-limits. Please let me know thanks!

    I don't know how the store would order those products BUT I do know that Tinkyada pasta, Pamelas products, and some of Amys gluten-free meals are available in BC. I've found them in Victoria, Nanaimo, and Vancouver. Good luck!

    I think I've missed something here. I was told by my dietitian to check all my cosmetics, hair stuff, etc. to see if they are gluten free and it appears that everyone on here has done that as well. I just haven't clued in as to why this is necessary. I did check all the stuff I use on my lips but, if I don't have DH, why should I be checking all...

    I checked the whipped topping ingredients today and it could be hidden in natural and artificial flavour...other than that, I don't see where else it could be.

    Hehe don't worry you're not the only one! I'm 20 and i just got diagnosed with osteopenia last week. I was told to have 1500 mg of elemental calcium daily. I use the Jamieson vitamin brand for my calcium supplement and also take a multivitamin daily (Quest brand) that has calcium and vit D in it too. Both are gluten free. I don't take any medication...

    Wow! Good luck with those games. Sounds pretty intense! I'm glad you're improving...I think that's so important. As long as we all keep getting better we will soon be back to normal Have an awesome weekend!

    I wouldn't say for sure that the chili is contaminated, but that it is a tiny bit risky. My boyfriend worked at Wendy's and one of my friends became a manager and it is common practice to use the meat that does not get used up for burgers for the chili. Also, I could have sworn I read it somewhere on the internet recentely but I can't remember where. ...

    I definitely have noticed a change. My symptoms of celiac were usually apparent after I exercised at the gym: I'd feel very dizzy and get terrible headaches right after. I'd pretty much have to lie in bed for four hours or so to feel normally again. I've only been gluten free for three months or so. I started running again when I started the diet...

    I'm 5'8 -5'9ish, I guess that is kind of tall. I think I only developed celiac disease about two years ago (I'm 20 now), which was when I stopped growing. Its hard to tell if I stopped growing because of celiac or just because of my age.

    Hm...I duno about the chili from Wendy's. They put all the burned meat that they can no longer use for burgers into it. I wouldn't trust the fact that the meat patties have never touched buns, sometimes people cancel orders or change them etc. so the patty just goes back with the meat, contaminating all of it. So it seems a bit risky to me. ...

    My family's in the DQ business and, as its such a big part of my life, I was pretty angry to find such a brief gluten-free list of food on www.dairyqueen.com ...nevermind the fact that the Canadian website had no list whatsoever! Plain sundaes are NO fun! So...I emailed DQ Canada complaining a bit and here is the letter I received: ----------...

    In August, I am going on a Globus tour in southern Italy. I have taken Globus group tours before but not since my diagnosis. I was wondering if anyone has experience traveling in a tour group while on the gluten-free diet and could share! Thanks!

    If you're looking for places in BC, I can name a few. I'm pretty newly diagnosed but here is what I have found in the last 2 months: VANCOUVER -Serenity bakery/deli/cafe Open Original Shared Link I just had the fruit crumble two days ago....mmm.... -Panne Rizo Open Original Shared Link The blackberry and peach pie is to die...
