    ARCHIVED Help Food!

    hez posted a topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease

    Hopefully, someone will come to my rescue! I will be traveling to Hopewell, NJ in the coming weeks and will need to eat. I know that Hopewell is near Princeton. That about covers what I know! What places to eat are safe? Where can I shop for gluten-free food? I will have access to a gluten kitchen so some meals I can make. Thanks for any and...

    I have made a version of this for many years! Even before my dx. I have been thinking about making this with the warmer weather. Hez

    ARCHIVED P.f. Chang's

    hez replied to Katester's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    Anytime we eat out we are taking a risk. It is very possible that somewhere along the line there was some cc. If you are still healing heavy greasy foods could also cause problems. There are those on this forum that have had great experiences there are others that have not been so lucky at PF Changs. Some locations do better than others. I am sorry...

    I think this is one of those times where you really need to know your own psyche. If long term, you know that you would only follow the diet if you had a formal dx, I would eat the gluten. If you have the psyche that does not need a firm dx go off. It really is a matter of personal choice. I was off the gluten for only two weeks before the biopsy. However...

    ARCHIVED Still Sick

    hez replied to msmini14's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    I am so sorry you are not feeling well The only thing I can offer is my experience. After being dx it took over 6 months for me to notice a difference on the diet. My endoscopy revealed severe damage. I think because of that it took a very long time for me to feel better. To this day if I glutened due to cc I am sick for about a month. I know many...

    I have yet to find anything that remotely resembles "real" bread. I am to the point that I just do without. I use lettuce and corn tortias for "bread". I do think that Breads by Anna is the closest thing to bread. It does great in my bread machine. I know in Europe they have gluten-free breads that taste different due to the fact that some use the...

    Deby's in Denver, CO has ravoli's that I thought were really good. I am pretty sure they ship. I can't remember what I paid for them or what shipping would be. There were two types one was dairy free and the other wasn't. I have never tried the Contes so I can't compare. Open Original Shared Link Hez

    KarenDianne- I know pure maple syrup (the real stuff) is gluten-free. There are alot of syrups that are not. I can't remember why, maybe malt? I use the Eggo brand of syrup and do not have problems. I checked about a year ago and they were gluten-free. Hez

    I have used this product off and on over the years and not had a problem. I do check the ingredients everytime to make sure nothing has changed. Sorry you feel bad. Hez

    I have heard peanut oil is best for deep frying. It does not break down at higher temperatures like olive oil. However, I could not find a big jug when I went to the store. I ended up with vegetable oil and it worked great for my onion rings (the only think I have tried in my new fryer). Hez

    The food "allergy" law does not cover gluten, only wheat which is a top 8 allergen. Hopefully, with the new gluten-free law (currently in the works) it will clear up confusion. Hez

    ARCHIVED Disneyland Paris

    hez replied to MAF's topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease

    They do such a wonderful job here in the States. What a shame that they do not have it together in Paris! Hez

    My family and I went to Disney in CA three years ago. We had the best time! We stayed at the Disneyland hotel and just did CA Adventure and Disney (did not go anywhere else). The character breakfast was wonderful. They made me gluten-free waffles and walked through the buffet line to tell me what I could have (keep in mind I am the only one with celiac...

    I have used Hershey's cocoa in the past without problems. I did not call on the product to confirm gluten-free status. However, it is not high end! Hez

    If you can get it Mountain High Yougurt is great! It states gluten-free on the label, is lower in sugar than other brands, and has the good bacteria your body needs. I use the plain one and mix fruit in during the summer. In the winter I get the flavored varieties. Hez

    I am so sorry your wife got sick. Everytime we eat out we take a risk. We as individual's have to weigh the risk. For me I am very sensitive so the risk is very high. I am careful when I eat out and really do not eat out very often. I am also very careful at home since I am the only one with celiac! I tend to not complain to restaurants when I do eat...

    I always check the ingredients. There were some colorings/frostings that clearly listed wheat. I have used the colored sugar without incident. Hez

    One option is to do a brunch. Do a egg/potato/sausage casserole the night before then throw in the oven in the morning. Ham is also supper easy with a make ahead casserole. I will send good thoughts your way Everything will be great! Hez

    At the risk of being stoned I do at times find the gluten-free life to be difficult. Want to go to a friends house, out to dinner or on a vacation? Not so easy. Do I find the diet worthwhile absolutly! Would I knowingly eat gluten? No way! I find eating gluten-free to be very easy at home. However, in social situations it is not as easy. I would...
