    Welcome to the forum, Drifter! This thread is a few years old but it is always a good idea to make sure what we buy is truly gluten-free. Soy, like anything else, can be CC'd when processed, especially when milled into a flour. While most processed food containing soy has fairly small amounts of it and won't have much issue from field cc (like soy lecithin...

    ARCHIVED Day 7

    LauraTX replied to binkman's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    I'm glad the forum has been a big help. It was definitely number one out of the resources I had when first starting out gluten-free. I had similar back pain issues like you, and the thing that has helped me the most is physical therapy. Won't hurt to go see the doctor if yours has gotten worse or has a new kink somewhere, and maybe there is something that...

    If you would like to get a good idea of how gluten-free bread handles versus regular bread (easier and more like a wet dough) you can pick up a gluten-free bread mix and give it a try. Lots come with yeast packet included. I highly recommend the King Arthur Flour gluten-free Bread Mix- my gluten eater husband willingly eats it and it freezes and thaws well...

    Always a great reminder. A lot of the dangers that come along with stores catering to fad dieters have come to a peak lately.

    I now only see the cookie dough of the three. I assume it will fall the way of some of the other products that manufacturers made gluten-free to get the fad dieter sales but were pulled when people who eat gluten-free because it is cool don't want to pay 5 dollars for one tub of cookie dough or pie crust. For pie I use the Open Original Shared Link....

    Generally with things like canned veggies, a read through of the ingredients list is all you need to be okay. No gluten ingredients=ok. If there was nothing on the can indicating otherwise, it is going to be safe. If you want to be double sure for if you use it in the future, you can write or call the manufacturer.

    Welcome to the forum! If you are truly going to be away from any way of purchasing any type of food product, I know a lady who makes and dehydrates her own gluten-free food for backpacking trips. There are a lot of websites dedicated to that craft, so those may help and if you are in this situation in the future, investing in a dehydrator and foodsaver...

    Welcome to the forum, Debbie. Do note this thread is five years old and some of the information may be outdated. Also, if you have Celiac disease, eating broccoli sprouts and aloe vera is not going to cure it, only a gluten-free diet will. However, before you trial a gluten-free diet, do head to a gastroenterologist to get properly diagnosed first as you...

    Welcome to the forum, Almas! The original poster has not been active on the forum since 08 so you may not get a response. However, if you are dealing with throat soreness from GERD or excess acid, definitely go see a GI doctor as soon as possible. It is something I deal with as well, and it can cause some bad issues.

    Pinterest is less scary than other social media sites. You should be able to use it just fine and click through to the original page it links to, without signing up.

    Welcome to the forum! Whether or not you get a niacin flush when taking niacin supplements depends on a lot of factors. Many niacin supplements are made to be "flush free" with things like special coatings, since consumers may find that bothersome. Also, the dose overall could be different. Since you probably don't know the exact specifications of...

    I have seen things on places like pinterest where you use a hard cheese and bake it to make crisps out of them... like parmesean in cupcake pans. May be something to give you that mouth feel.

    Welcome to the forum, Denise! Do note that you are replying to a years old thread, so product info may have changed over time, and the original posters may no longer be active.

    Tonight I made Tandoori Chicken with roasted curry cauliflower. Was pretty good. Now my house will smell like curry for a few days and when I walk inside after being out I will get hungry, lol.

    The physical therapy they do for that is a little more advanced than just Kegels, definitely worth a try. I have heard some good things about it from my interstitial cystitis group.

    I have seen lots of new breyers stuff. Haven't tried any of them, but it wouldn't surprise me if they are focusing growth in the south, given the absence of blue bell. Before the recall it would take up more than half a texas ice cream aisle.

    Oh yes, the hatch products are certified gluten-free too. I like their enchilada sauce.
  18. LauraTX
    Stubbs BBQ sauces and marinades are certified gluten-free by the GFCO. They are very good I think the liquid smoke is the only one that is not.

    Is this like Oprah's favorite things where you surprise us all with free cake? Because I really want to go over to whole foods now and buy one of each!!!!
  20. LauraTX
    It is fine to post what your favorite products or recommendations. Just not if you sell it/own it/are affiliated. Heck, without the guidance of this forum on what the good items are, I would have wasted so much more money. Applegate Farms Beef Hot Dogs are so good. Makes regular hot dogs taste inferior. Tinkyada is also my favorite pasta.

    ARCHIVED Chicago

    LauraTX replied to Googles's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    Hi Googles, I have merged this into the previous topic to avoid confusion. It will still show at the top for people as unread. Also, I get emails about the University of Chicago Celiac Disease center and their fundraisers... here is a link to one with restaurants that cater to it, may be a good place to start looking: Open Original Shared Link

    Have you seen a doctor about this yet? It maybe a good idea to set up an appointment, since so many things can cause a rash.
  23. LauraTX
    Well, enough of you guys keep talking about these flourless PB cookie recipes that I am gonna try it now. Definitely no harm in adding chocolate, either, LOL!

    Cooking up a turkey breast sounds really good. My grocery store will mark meat 25% off late in the evening which is when I usually shop, and a lot of time it is turkey. Next time I see a big turkey breast on sale I am going to snatch it up. I could go for some pot pie, been years! I will look at ground pork, too. I have used that in pasta before when...

    Do note that this thread is 8 years old so product information may change over time, and users may no longer be active. Looking at ingredients on purell's website, I see nothing that would be a gluten ingredient. If you called them and they gave you the "we dont add gluten but we also dont test for it and therefore cannot guarantee our product is gluten...
