    I always make my own. Hellman's mayo, vinegar and sugar...easy. Can't help you with other options though.

    Sometimes that remains a mystery between all of us. There seems to be a lot of variables which I hear from others. How long ago were you symptomatic of cross contamination and were you certain it was gluten? I have heard from other that after a deliberate gluten that they had no problems, then another time a severe reaction. Why it varies, don't know....

    Some legends just never die! (but I think the chocolate does contain gluten)

    Lissa, You have been gluten free for three years and most likely totally healed from when you were so ill. It might take continued exposure to gluten over an unknown period of time for you to react as you did before. Or, your reaction could be delayed for several more hours or several more days. Everyone is different. Try not to get nervous...

    Hum....my favorite is toilet paper. I do believe we had a thread of over 23 pages discussing the subject. Boy was that fun!

    ARCHIVED Mexican Food

    Lisa replied to mmmSmores's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    I would think that every Mexican Restaurant is a little different. I have used my Truiumph Dining Cards in Spanish and the staff was very helpful. I would speak to the manager during off times and you can go over the menu.

    Thanks Jenny. I'll have to flag them down next time the come around.

    I've never bought anything from them except ice cream, years ago. Do they have other gluten free products?

    Maybe Blessing was just dreaming about a day when she can cheat and get away with it. I bet most of us have had similar thought at least once during our traveled road. If I were to cheat, it wouldn't be for pizza or at a Sonic. It would be at a very, very expensive French restaurant and I'd probably blow a whole weeks salary and do it up right!. Now...

    Well, many times it depends on the situation. If it's a small dinner party. I would tell them that you have recently been diagnosed with a food allergy. Offer to bring something that you can cook and share with the others. Or, you can mention that you would love to join them for dinner, but will be bringing a salad (or something) that you can eat due...

    There is a lot to learn about this stuff. I learn something every day.

    I have heard that first degree relatives have a 20% change of Celiac Disease. If that's the case, it's a very good likelihood that your children may never develop Celiac. Testing for children under the age of five is highly unreliable and your child is not symptomatic. I would be aware of the possibilty and watch for symtoms.

    Open Original Shared Link Frequently you can find this type of information if you google the product name and -gluten free.

    I do have the Grocery Guide and I would highly recommend it. In the first year of gluten free, I would have found it invaluable. I would have taken it with me where ever I went. It came out a little too late for me, but I wish I would have had one. No, I take it back....when my husband goes to the store, I can tell him what brand and flavor of ice...

    ARCHIVED Smoking

    Lisa replied to msmini14's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff

    Judy, It's a tough thing to take on. Best advise I can give you is to change your routine. When the phone rings and your usually want a cigarette, go somewhere where you never smoked. Go to your bedroom or a bathroom and talk. When you're done with a task, start a new one immediatly. When you have a drink or a glass of wine in the evening and want...

    "two years after adopting a gluten free diet, about half those people diagnosed with celiac disease continued to have villous atrophy as severe as when they were first diagnosed. Only about one in five of those with severe intestinal damage (villous atrophy) on a gluten free diet had raised (abnormal) blood levels of transglutaminase antibody, meaning that...
