ARCHIVED Lays Stax
2Boys4Me replied to Lister's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Wouldn't you be better off with regular Lays vs Stax? I buy regular Lays and there are only a few ingredients: potatoes, salt, oil (and whatever flavour) but even the plain Stax have 8000 ingredients. Maybe it's one of those causing the problem. -
ARCHIVED Tim Hortons
2Boys4Me replied to Ronnie's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications

ARCHIVED Gluten Free Graham Craker Thingys?
2Boys4Me replied to Smunkeemom's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I use the Bette Hagman graham cracker recipe to turn into crumbs for cheesecake but it would look more like mud. They don't turn out beigey/sandy coloured. Here's a recipe from Incredible Edible Gluten Free Food for Kids by Sheri L. Sanderson Disclaimer: I have never tried these and I don't know if they'll look or taste like sand! 3/4 cup (1 1/... -

ARCHIVED Celiac Friendly Restaurants In Canada
2Boys4Me replied to Carriefaith's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Have you tried the Mongolie Grill? There's one on 4th Street (I think) downtown and Dalhousie Station. -
Beverly - VH is a brand of Chinese sauces and dips. It's manufactured by ConAgra, but eat your hearts out Americans. I think it's only in Canada. Open Original Shared Link

ARCHIVED Grocery Stores Or Health Food Stores In Calgary
2Boys4Me replied to Carriefaith's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Hi Carrie, Everything depends on where you live. In the northwest is Amaranth Whole Foods Market - they have Thai Kitchen, Kinnickinnik, El Peto, Glutino and lots more. In the SW, the Lakeview Bakery, Glamorgan Bakery and Earth's Oven all have gluten-free selections, I think Earth's Oven is completely gluten-free. I can't comment on taste, I have a picky... -

I work for CTV Calgary, I guess I'll pitch this story on a local level. I wonder if it is a medical story or not. It helps to avoid the assignment desk and go directly to a reporter sometimes. I'll see what I can do. I'm interested in checking it out, assuming they have a kid-friendly menu. My six year old would NEVER EVER eat a mexican lasagne. Or any other...

ARCHIVED School Aged Kids And Lunch
2Boys4Me replied to Tony'sMom's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Ty has the same lunch every day. The first 4 days of school he had an egg salad bunwich. Then for two days he had chicken with rice soup. All the rest of the days he has 2-3 slices of banana bread (from the Incredible Edible Gluten Free Food for Kids cookbook), a sliced hard boiled egg and either pepperoni, cold left over steak, roast beef or chicken or cubed... -
ARCHIVED I Just Love My Daughter's School!
2Boys4Me replied to a topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Excellent! -
Sorry, Molly I was an infant when I had it, so I can't remember a thing. My Mom said that I wasn't too bad off, but my twin sister and Dad were hospitalized for quite a while. Karen has a point about the fresh air. They say that about croup, too. Steam shower and then get outside right to the cold night air. I hope you feel better soon.

ARCHIVED Recipes For Masa As Ingredient?
2Boys4Me replied to treeclimber's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Masa is corn flour, right? If so, I use it in my main flour blend for cookies and cakes. I use Carol Fenster's sorghum/corn flour blend. 1 1/2 cups sorghum flour 1/1/2 cups potato starch 1 cup tapioca flour 1/2 cup corn flour* or substitute chestnut flour, or bean flour *grind white cornmeal into flour with small coffee grinder I can only find... -

ARCHIVED Delicious Snack
2Boys4Me replied to jkmunchkin's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I'll have to convince my son to try this. He LOVES sour cream, and would rather die than eat a piece of fruit. (unless it's wrapped in a pie shell.) -
ARCHIVED Gluten Free Cook Book
2Boys4Me replied to Lister's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I noticed none of you mentioned Kraft peanut butter. Isn't it gluten-free? I think it is. Or does that even exist in the States? -
I was sort of wondering if stuff might burn more easily. You know heat reflecting and gluten-free stuff always browns so much quicker...I like these because they're just the right size for single servings.

Hi Everyone, I just found at Walmart these little toaster-oven sized cookie sheets and individual pizza pans, about 7 inches across. I think these will be perfect for toasting buns for sloppy joes, or tuna melts, or whatever. My question is: how will the shiny silver affect the pizza crust? Most of the cookbooks say to use grey non-stick, not black pans...

ARCHIVED Then Last Item With Gluten You Ate...
2Boys4Me replied to VegasCeliacBuckeye's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I'm answering for my six year old son. I know that the night we found out we were having Chicken Caesar salad and sourdough bread. I had to scramble to find a gluten-free Caesar dressing, but I did - he didn't have the bread or croutons. I'll bet it was Honey Nut Cheerios. He lived on those things. He probably had two bowls for breakfast, I don't know about... -
If it's pinkeye, and you work with kids a lot, it wouldn't hurt to keep some Polysporin eye/ear drops handy. Then if your eyes start getting itchy and red you might be able to cut it off at the pass in the future. FYI, whenever my son has had pinkeye, it's just red, watery horrible looking eyes, no gunk involved. Not crusty, you know? Still trying to...
