ARCHIVED Kraft "policy" To Not Tell gluten-free Or Not
VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to discountshopper's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I did also find this section of the Act after reading it...looks like 4 years to decide what is gluten-free and what is not -- even then, it could be wrong...sigh! SEC. 206. GLUTEN LABELING Not later than 2 years after the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, in consultation with appropriate experts and stakeholders... -
ARCHIVED Kraft "policy" To Not Tell gluten-free Or Not
VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to discountshopper's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Here is an article on the new Food allergen law -- sorry, coudn't get the link to post! Depending on how it's interpreted, a new law designed to help the roughly 12 million Americans suffering from food allergies may cause them some grief, said a University of Nebraska-Lincoln food scientist who is an international expert on food allergies. The federal... -
ARCHIVED Kraft "policy" To Not Tell gluten-free Or Not
VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to discountshopper's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
To bring this full circle, Kraft's policy is to label the ingredients if they are derived from one of the 8 allergens and barley and oats. Corn, to my knowledge is not one of the 8 allergens. Wheat, however, is. Hence, if it says modified food starch (WITH ONLY KRAFT), then it is corn based -- if it were wheat it would say "Wheat-Starch" or... -
ARCHIVED Thanksgiving Issue
VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to jnclelland's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Sure it does.. DH occurs on joints on the body all the time (at least with me)... I get them on my neck and knuckles...(as well as knees, elbows, "arse", my "belt-line" and armpits (where skin rubs against itself) DH is a tricky devil and can go just about anywhere and not necessarily be in certain spots also!! Hope this helps... -

VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to discountshopper's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Just a bad rep --- its ok...don't blame the whole company over 1 misinformed rep. Although, I wonder how many times I have done that (gotten ticked off at a rep and blew off a company -- probably 20 times LOL!) -
ARCHIVED gluten-free Bread Stuffing Recipe
VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to tammy's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
In my opinion, you would want a very dense brown bread. I actually mix two types (a white and brown gluten-free bread -- Nature for life) the denser bread is able to soak the liquid up better and not "fall apart" or dissolve too much. Hope this helps.. -

Carl Buddig Meats are gluten-free!! -
ARCHIVED Dealing With A Spouse
VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to teacher1578's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Sometimes, you just have to force their hand a little. I always think the smartest things newly diagnosed gluten-free- folks need to do are the following 1. Purchase "squeezable" gluten-free condomints (no need for knives and other "dirty" silverware) 2. Buy your own toaster (they are like $12) 3. Over time, buy your own pans -- look for deals... -
ARCHIVED Thanking The "old School" Posters
VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Somebody should throw Richard (lovegrov) a big thanks -- he always seems to come in with a quick three line response and quell any uncertainty!!! Thanks Richard! -
ARCHIVED Thanksgiving ?
VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to jcgirl's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I fully advocate making your own personal gluten free thanksgiving the day before (or the day of) and bring over a big old plate of gluten-free goodies. Family members can be "less than supportive" at times and I like this day too much to allow their lack of consideration to affect it!!! Stuffing, turkey and taters taste great as leftovers -- don't... -

ARCHIVED Health Valley
VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Just got off the phone with Health Valley. They said the ingredients in the cream of chicken are "gluten free", but the facility has other gluten containing soups that are used in the same vats (though they are cleaned) So sort of yes and sort of no....depends on your sensitivity, I guess... -
ARCHIVED Criticizing Ideas And Not People
VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to FaithInScienceToo's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I thought it was a spirited debate!! (Perhaps that is the lawyer coming out Let's all just make sure we don't cast "the next stone" from our desks! That includes myself and the rest of the peanut gallery!! E-mails and message boards can be a bit of a paradox!! It is difficult to understand emotion, tone or even sarcasm on these things! -
ARCHIVED Our First Gf Thanksgiving
VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to Kailynsmom's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Wine -- made from grapes Rum -- made from sugarcane Tequila -- made from agave Potato vodkas -- chopin - made from potatos -- also, as long as liquor is distilled it is gluten-free -- the problem arises with sensitvity -- some people can't drink distilled grain related alcohols -- I can (but I never used to be able to )... Drink and be merry... -
ARCHIVED What The H*$% Is Going On?
VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to dfish's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I am not sure what your diagnosis will be, but I do know that a lot of people react to rice, apples and/or pectin (in apples).... Start with items you know are ok -- veggies, chicken, a potato?? Eat that for a week or so and slowly add in items... Keep you chin up -- with time you can beat this thing... Bronco p.s. Avoid the Spaghettio's.... -

ARCHIVED Non-celiac Gluten Sensitivity
VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to aurora's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I have not read nor seen any scientific data that states "gluten sensitivity eventually develops into Celiac Disease"... It was my understanding that one is genetiacally linked while the other is not... Am I wrong? I thought they were separate conditions... -

VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to Nicolette's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications

VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to Jenn2005's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications

ARCHIVED Chicken Aand Vegetables?
VegasCeliacBuckeye replied to christa's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
