Last I heard the hash browns weren't gluten-free which is why it's a problem: HASH BROWNS: Ingredients: Potatoes, Vegetable Oil (Canola Oil, Hydrogenated Soybean Oil, Natural Beef Flavor [Wheat and Milk Derivatives]*, Citric Acid [Preservative]), Salt, Corn Flour, Dehydrated Potato, Dextrose, Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate (Maintain Color), Extractives of...

I occasionally eat at Jimmy Johns, but I also know half of the staff personally so they all automatically switch gloves when I come in and they all are now experts at making lettuce wrapped "unwiches" Burger King and McDonalds will both make their burgers without a bun if you ask, if they give you "deer in the headlight eyes" you're probably going to...

1) Is there anything consistently that she does well with food wise, something that the symptoms aren't as severe with? 2) are you opposed to adding back in easy to process foods like rice and beans? It sounds like either her body is still reacting to something, or she's not getting something that she needs. And it's going to be hard finding that...

Just a question, before you knew Gluten was the culprit, what made you feel better? When I get glutened, I buy ginger ale, and let it go flat while I drink an energy drink. I don't know if it's the caffeine or the increase of my metabolism or just the brain to body connection of "something is wrong, we need to step up our game" placebo effect but it just...

I think Gluten Free on a Shoestring has a recipe that essentially just uses a bread mix to make flour tortillas in the skillet. I've enjoyed it but I usually use corn tortillas when I'm doing mexican. It was nice to be able to make wraps for lunch without using lettuce leaves though.

I was vegetarian when I found out I inherited Celiacs from my dad, and because of the supplies locally and my own schedule I had to remove Gluten and add back in meat. It was an emotional time. I may or may not have started crying in the grocery store's candy aisle because I just couldn't remember what was safe and what wasn't and all I wanted was a snack...

So I work in Theatre, the hours are awkward, the locations are odd, and some days I just don't have time or energy to pack snacks/ a meal before hand. Before I went Gluten Free I often kept protein bars in my bags to supplement a meal because they have a long enough shelf life that I can keep two or three in my common bags and generally forget about them...

I usually take Alka-seltzer for the gut problems, which lessens the brain fog. If I'm also experiencing aches or pains I'll use Alka-seltzer with Aspirin, but generally I use pain med free versions so it's really just aiming to settle my stomach. I'll eat Rice Porridge which is just broth and rice that cooks until it's almost soggy, usually plain the first...
