  1. OH, and make a list as you go of what you like and what you dont like. It helps and then you dont have to rely on your memory! I saw on this board some where to put a list inside your pantry to write the likes and dislikes on. That helped us when we first started. My kid is a streak eater anyway, so while he was stuck on the same thing for a week I would...
  2. Do you plan on going to a health food store or a regular grocery store? We go to both, from the health food store we get bread, snacks, cereal, cookies and the reg. store everything else. Like for spaghetti I get the noodles from Earthfare and everything else from Food Lion. Its very time consuming. Ask your health food store if they have a gluten-free...
  3. Thank you for the links. I would have never thought of our charcoal... EVER! Is wheat taking over the world!?
  4. Are you serious about the charcoal? We grill out ALL the time and I never thought to look. Stephanie
  5. Thanks for the extra info. I will look at those too next time. He seems to like the fruit on the bottom ones. He likes watching the color change when he stirs it. lol. Oh to be 3 again!! Stephanie
  6. Thanks for posting this! My son wanted some yogurt and I wasnt sure what brand to buy. I went ahead and bought Breyers but I wouldnt let him eat it until I did some homework. Stephanie
  7. I am sooo glad I saw this thread. We bought the Dora and Mickey cereal the other day and I just couldnt believe it was gluten free. I think I have read the box 50 times thinking I have over looked something my son cant have. lol. Paranoid about a cereal box.! stef.
  8. I dont know about the teeth but as for the diet this fourm is all you need. I was sent to a dietician and she was worthless. She told me the same stuff I had found on this website/fourm. I wanted an actual grocery list...lol.. I found a good health food store in my area that has alot of gluten free stuff and copied some grocery lists off of this fourm...
  9. I see you posted this a while back... sorry I dont have time to check out the board as much as I would like. I am not celiac but my 3 yr old son is. For that reason we havent been to the support group meeting but we do have them here. I think they meet every other month. I can give you the ladies name that organizes it if you like. We have an Earth...
  10. I too love sonic... esp their milkshakes.... so one day I called to make sure they had a dedicated fryer and asked a few other questions. Its my 3 yr old son that is celiac. When we got there I asked to get a kids meal w/ a hot dog plain instead of the corn dog in the kids meal. They were sooo rude. The manager came out and told me that was impossible...
  11. Due to restaurant people... and most people in general... not knowing what is in their food, I usually just say my son is allergic to flour. They understand that much more than the wheat thing. lol. Or try saying I am allergic to wheat that includes anything made with flour. Learning as I go! Stef.
  12. Boy.. did this list come in handy tonight!! Thanks for the post! Stephanie
  13. Try not having the fake sweetners. They all give me a headache. Stephanie
  14. I just tried this and it was great... and easy! My husband and 2yr old liked it and thats a feat. It even got the two year old to eat green beans, which he never does. Thanks again, Stephanie
  15. I just found out country crock is gluten-free. Its not too expensive. Good Luck... I know this is hard. Stephanie
  16. The chicken nugs were terrible!! And very expensive! We ate 1 and threw the whole box away. I would love to have the corn dogs... hope they are better. Stephanie
  17. I would like to know more about the gluten free graham cracker?? My son would love to have those again! Stephanie
  18. I noticed this too on a few products... Wow, I love it. I will buy that brand just to have those two words on the label!!!!! Stephanie
  19. How is the food search in MB going? I was looking to see what kind of health food stores they have there and it seems to be only one.... i was shocked.... its a small area but LOTS of people per year visit. I love MB and lived in north myrtle for a while many, many years ago. Changed alot since then but I still love to visit there. Stephanie
  20. I would not think any school would need a note. My sons school had seen how sick he was though and was thrilled the first time they saw him run! When they saw what a difference a diet could make they did not question me. But also I take most of his food. I take his rice and chicken or pasta and he eats the side dishes there. He also has a bin in the...
  21. My insurance did cover a dietician and she wasnt much help. The only thing she did that was helpful was give me the name of the celiac contacts at the health food stores. All other information she gave me I already had, even some was incorrect. And being that she isnt celiac she really couldnt answer alot of questions for me.... the best answers I have...
  22. All either one of us can remember is it has Smokehouse in the name. It was in the yellow pages of the phone book and the ad said something about making their own hamburgers. When I called to check some other items the guy I talked (think it was the manager or assi. manager) to was very nice and seemed to know quite a bit. Have fun on your trip!! Stephanie
  23. We went there in Feb and I found the restaurants very easy to deal with. I will have to ask my husband the place we ended up eating at but it was very good. They ground their own hamburger so we got that w/ out the bun and it was great. I will see if he remembers and post it. Stephanie
  24. Did you find out any information via email about the restuarants? Please post it if you do. I think we will try the crab house that was suggested and maybe that steak house but probably just eat at the condo. But I would like to have choices if we do go out. Stephanie
  25. I was wondering if you found any other places to eat out in Myrtle Beach or if the steak house suggested was good? We will be going for a long weekend at the end of August. The condo has a kitchen so we can fix our own breakfast and lunches but we like going out for dinner. Thanks for the help. Stephanie
