  1. Over the weekend there was a gluten and allergen free food expo at the Meadowlands in NJ. I found out about it by accident, and drove there and bought tix. It was $20 per person - not bad! SO MANY vendors were there! It was wonderful to be able to taste test everything! There were local vendors as well as the national ones. I couldn't believe how...
  2. Yes! I thought I got glutened and by process of elimination realized I developed a dairy intolerance. Now I have small amounts of cheese with taking a lactaid pill first. Still too gunshy to have any gluten free pizza. (It's only been a few months since the intolerance started.)
  3. I used to love beer as well. I moved to Woodchuck or Apple Orchard hard ciders. The Woodchuck Amber is my favorite. I hope you are feeling better!
  4. Someone asked a few months ago if Red Apple sold any samples. Well, now they do! You can make up your own sample set! Here's the link. Open Original Shared Link
  5. Can you have Gatorade? I know it's gluten free - but I don't know if you can handle everything else that's in it, but that is the ONLY thing that works for me. The blue one - I think it's called blue freeze works the best - even dr's recommend that one - I don't know why! I hope you're finally on the mend!
  6. I have had nothing but good experiences at Outback. Their flourless brownie is awesome. I've never (knock on wood) had a reaction. I think they don't have the prices on the gluten free menu so that when the regular menu prices change, they don't have to reprint those menus also. At my location they take Celiac very seriously. Even the server comes...
  7. Thank you both. I'm sure it will get easier with time. I was diagnosed at the end of March, so these things still tempt me a bit. I won't crack and eat one b/c I don't want to be sick, but it sure is tempting...
  8. Yes, findmeglutenfree.com, and there is an app for your cell phone also.
  9. Another great place for the east side is Lily and Lu - they even have gluten free dumplings!
  10. OMG I really need strength today. Someone brought in donuts - they're less than 20 feet from me. I want one - but I know I can't have one. This is the first time since my diagnosis that something has been quite literally staring me in the face and beckoning. Sigh. How do you guys cope?
  11. I make my own also which I do prefer, but as we all know, sometimes there's just NO time! Are the Tyson ones good? I will have to look for those.
  12. So, I was in Pathmark the other day, and I saw a bag of Perdue Smart Choice Gluten Free Chicken Tenders in the frozen section. I decided to buy them and try them and WOW, they're really good! The breading is made out of rice flour, honey and a bit of brown sugar. I gave them to my 13 year old niece (who has Celiac also) and she loves them too. So...
  13. Great, thanks on both counts. Sorry about posting in the wrong place. I was thinking of asking for the Celiac panel to be run again. It's been 4 months since going gluten free. (Was diagnosed on April 1st)
  14. Sorry, I posted this in the wrong topic - I will post in the post-diagnosis forum now.
  15. Hello, Tomorrow morning will be my first dr's visit since my diagnosis. I am going to ask for the following blood tests, please let me know if I've missed anything. CBC CMP SED RATE Iron/Ferritin levels B-12 Folate I have been hypo-thyroid for about 15 years now, so the thyroid panel will also be run. Am I missing anything? Thanks.
  16. Finally feeling better. Thank you all for your support. I probably got a CC'd batch of the pasta - won't be buying again. Bought a bag of bionaturae so I'll be trying that one next, in a few weeks.
  17. LOL, I know! I was shocked when I first saw it too.
  18. I had jaw pain and pain in my gums and teeth pre-diagnosis. Good that you got it checked. I hope you feel better!
  19. Yes, I'm aware, and it really is imported from Italy.
  20. Oh prisoners get more accommodations for meals than we do! They get better dental treatment too. Not that I want to be in prison...
  21. Yes, it is! I just checked their website and it's available at two stores near me! I will try it this week. Thanks!
  22. Thanks. I gradually reintroduced everything I ate that day - one item at a time in this last few days, and it seems it's the dairy. Two days of the pain was enough for me to take a break.
  23. Thank you all!! I can't believe I missed it. Sigh. I will continue to search for another gluten free pasta imported from Italy.
  24. So, I started getting stomach pains this week after eating dairy. I got diagnosed with Celiac at the beginning of April. Is it possible I developed this intolerance now? How long should I wait before attempting anything dairy again? (I want to give it some time - the pains were BAD.) Since being diagnosed I haven't suffered any intolerances (until...
