    It's always hard to know, or recognize a glutening in the beginning. Salad are hard to digest. Cross contamination could be an issue. Dairy can be problematic. Or, maybe you are not healed. And sometimes, we just never know. Sorry, I'm not too much help. Not knowing your work environment...could you bring in a personal microwave?

    Hope you feel better today. xxxooo Today is tomorrow. Feel beter Mushrooms!

    Hi Tamber, again. I just wanted to say welcome again, and it's okay to want to cheat. And one cheat will no kill you, nor another cheat. I know many people in my small town who cheat, although diagnosed. It's all about choices. When I do get careless, it takes a day out of my life, listless on the sofa and I'm confined to home ( and I suffer less...

    I suppose I get enough gluten through unaware cross contamination. Adding to that, just doesn't make sence.
  5. Lisa
    That is old information, and their website is out of date. Caramel coloring/flavoring and vanilla flavoring are no longer considered to contain gluten.

    ..and that would be a clear violation of the law. If wheat is used in a product, by law, it must be listed on the ingredient listing or allergin statement. Kraft had a great policy and lists all forms of gluten. Perhaps, you contacted an uninformed customer relations representative. Open Original Shared Link

    Not to sure I understand...Rudi's makes gluten free bread. Open Original Shared Link

    Malt/barley are not listed on the top eight allergins. Any disclosure of barley/malt is volutarary at this time.. Perhaps we are mis-understanding each other Kareng.
  9. Lisa
    ...but malt is not required to be listed, if an ingredient. Any listing or disclosure would be voluntary at this time (unfortunatly). Best to call the company to verify.

    How were you tested for Celiac Disease? This is the test ( full panel ) that you should have been tested for Celiac: Anti-Gliadin (AGA) IgA Anti-Gliadin (AGA) IgG Anti-Endomysial (EMA) IgA Anti-Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA Deamidated Gliadin Peptide (DGP) IgA and IgG Total Serum IgA Although other food intolerances are common, often times...

    After two months gluten free you should be feeling some relief (although I don't know your history in your previous posts). Review your diet and keep a food diary. Have you checked your meds, shampoo, lipsticks, or do you share equipment in your kitchen. Begining a full gluten free diet is not as easy as some assume. It can be pretty complex and the...

    Yes you should be cautious, probably more so since your daughter does not show obvious signs of a reaction. If you are just starting out, I would recommend Gluten Free Shopping Guides such as Triumph Gluten Free Shopping Guide or Cecelia's Gluten Free Shopping Guide. Both can be found here at the Gluten Free Mall. They are published annually and they...

    I'm not sure what you criteria is for "healthy" worchestershire sauce is, but Lea & Perrins is gluten free (In the US - not in Canada, unless ingredients have changed). (Posted the same time as Karen, but she's quicker on the draw than I )
  14. Lisa
    This is the FULL spectrum of serological tests you should have had, They talk to each other, so to speak: Anti-Gliadin (AGA) IgA Anti-Gliadin (AGA) IgG Anti-Endomysial (EMA) IgA Anti-Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA Deamidated Gliadin Peptide (DGP) IgA and IgG Total Serum IgA With a positive biopsy and fatigue, vitamine deficiences and unexplained...

    Yes, let them know that you require a gluten free meal option, when you make your reservation. I would also suggest that you have some snacks with you, in case there is an error. Or buy something after you have passed security.

    Hey Pam and Welcome! Eating simply will help you recover more quickly. Meats, fish, fresh veggies, rice, potatoes, and fresh fruit. Season with salt and pepper. Shop on the perimeter of the store and stay away from processed foods, for now. As you feel better, add more items to your menu, one at a time. Avoid dairy products for a while until your...

    Perhaps not Peter, but I found it interesting. And pleased that ongoing research is paving the road for all of us. Sometime, small successes make large impacts. I would also like to see a link to the study.

    I have never seen jarred sauerkraut that contained gluten. Generally, it's just cabbage, water, salt, juniper berries and carraway seeds.
  19. Lisa
    I have never seen an unstuffed turkey that contained gluten of any form. Why don't you contact the producers of Perdue or Jenny-O (for example) and get back with us about your theory?
  20. Lisa
    I have NEVER met an unstuffed Turkey that contained gluten. What brand was it? What store was it? Perhaps you were mistaken as to your husbands source of gluten.
  21. Lisa
    Yes, Yes, Yes and Yes. Anna you scored 100%! But...it's a learning process. We all make mistakes. One Thanksgiving, I brought my own cooked cornish hen. Everyone else enjoyed the stuffed Turkey, but I had my own "mini-me". The kids loved it! We have all been in your shoes, but I hope you feel better soon. Edit: And there are no silly...

    Welcome Laura, I would continue to eat gluten and have your primary care doctor test you for a full celiac panel. No need to speculate, just go for the testing. Here is the FULL panel you need to be tested for: Anti-Gliadin (AGA) IgA Anti-Gliadin (AGA) IgG Anti-Endomysial (EMA) IgA Anti-Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA Deamidated Gliadin...

    Did I make an error in my spelling again? What am I missing?
  24. Lisa
    Yes, marinade some quality beef, pork chicken (sliced) or seafood with soy sauce (easy on the soy sauce), italian dressing, garlic, powdered ginger, honey and minced dried onions - for several hours or longer. Stir fry (without the merinade) and add your fav veggies until done to your likeing. Serve with rice and thinly sliced green onions to garnish...

    Smelling or the scent of food can not make you sick. Walking through an active bakery where flour is airborn could make you sick by inhaleing the flour particles, and swallowing. Smelling something gluteny cooking does have the "creep out" factor for some .But it won't get you sick.
