    If you can list the ingredients, someone can let you know if it contains gluten, but we cannot tell you if it is manufactured on shared lines with other gluten products.

    If it were me.....I would rely on a 2008 listing, calling the company and reading labels. The bottom line is that you need to learn to read labels and not depend on lists, as they stated, things change frequently. Lists can be wonderful in the beginning. WARNING: Campbell's US and Campbell's CANADA have TWO DIFFERENT GLUTEN FREE LISTINGS. ...

    Well, then you shall have cheese. Kraft is a company who will clearly list all forms of gluten to include barley, malt and rye.

    Just wanted to add...this the the panel that your doctor should order to test for Celiac Disease: Anti-gliadin antibodies (AGA) both IgA and IgG Anti-endomysial antibodies (EMA) - IgA Anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies (tTG) - IgA Total IgA level. ...yep, all of them.

    The Celiac Disease Foundation, the Celiac Sprue Association and The Gluten Intolerant Group have independently tested McDonalds French Fries and the testing showed no significant levels of gluten. There is a risk of cross contamination. BUT, this is a discussion for later and no need to overwhelm dreamindarlin. Some choose to eat McD's Fries, others...

    Thanks for posting.

    Many of us have dealt with the shock that you are experiencing now, with with ourselves or close family members. I too, came home from the GI and looked it up on the Internet. I found this site and I haven't left. This place and the good people here will get you through this. Celiac can be diagnosed by three means: 1) blood testing; 2) endoscopy...

    HERE IS AM! And I'm proud to say that I have been making Peter's balls. I covered them with Classico Marinara Sauce and lots of Mozzarella and Provolone. Boy they were good, finger lick'en good. I highly recommend them! Hello to Julie and all.

    ARCHIVED Hotdogs

    Lisa replied to celiacgirl08's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    A lot of the main stream hot dogs are gluten free including Oscar Meyer. All of Boar's Head meats (including hot dogs) and cheeses are gluten free. Nathan hot dogs are NOT gluten free. Bacon, all you have to do is look for "wheat" on the ingredients listing. Barley, malt and rye would not be an issue in bacon. I buy Smithfield and Oscar Meyer bacon...

    Welcome! This is a great site and we are glad that you joined us. Every thread of full of valuable information and it's the best around! This diet is really hard and it's great when you can commiserate with others. We've all been here. Feel free to ask questions.

    Welcome to the Club! There are no conclusive tests with the exception of a positive dietary results. I believe you have your answer. The neurological symptoms will clear up with a continued gluten free diet. Everything you would like to know can be found on this site. Again, welcome.

    Unfortunatly, I haven't found any package gravy that is gluten free. I have heard, that there are some gluten free versions at health food stores. When making gravy, I always use corn starch. If that won't work, I do without.

    Sassy, someone will be with you shortly. I'm not good at test results, but I wanted to say welcome.

    If you cannot handle eating gluten again, perhaps you shouldn't. You felt better without gluten and that can be a diagnosis in itself. You may not have Celiac, but rather a gluten intolerance. Many people here are self-diagnosed and feel quite comfortable with their conclusion. I would pursue the endoscopy and biopsy though. It's good to rule out other...

    HI Michelle and Welcome, All coke, pepsi, 7-up and sprite products are gluten free. I would suggest that you stick to those until you learn more about the diet. You can learn a lot on this site. Welcome again.
  18. Lisa
    Happy Birthday Andrea! May all your wishes come true.
  19. Lisa
    Welcome! The best diagnosis is a positive dietary response. Since your tests (but not knowing exactly what tests they were) were boarderline, try the diet and see if you feel better. Your symptoms certainly could reflect Celiac or a gluten intolerance. Take some time to read around this site. There's some great information.

    I'm not a fan at all.

    I can handle gluten, but I am always careful to wash my hands well and wipe down any counter top that is used. I don't impose my restrictions on my husband and he is always courteous of mine.

    Hi Sonya, I would revisit your diet. Check you meds, vitamins, shampoos, makeup and lipsticks. In other words, anything that can get near or in your mouth. Do you have a dedicated toaster just you for you and your daughter. Wooded spoons, scratched pots and pans, wooded cutting boards and colanders can be a good source for hidden gluten. It is...

    I am very sorry that you have had such difficulties. But, I am a firm believer that we take on sole responsibility when we eat outside our home. We have Celiac Disease, restaurants did not cause this and it's not their responsibility to remedy the situation. I am grateful when some restaurants make an effort to accommodate those of us with food concerns...

    larry mac, are you misbehaving AGAIN!
  25. Lisa
    It's obvious that you have either Celiac Disease, a gluten intolerance or a gluten allergy. The diet is a diagnosis in itself. Sometimes it does seem like a very dumb thing to do by making yourself sick, do further damage, just so that MAYBE that damage can show up for doctors to be satisfied. Your doctor said that he/she was 90% sure you have Celiac...
