    I just stick to Spicely Organics....all their spices/seasonings are certified gluten-free and free of additives.

    Funny you should mention that issue with the sweeteners, acesulfame potassium, aspartame, saccharin, some forms of pure erythritol all turn me into Mr. Hyde. I straight up get angry and start snapping and breaking stuff. While I am fine with stevia, Sucrose, monk fruit, xylitol, and 1 brand of erythritol. Real sugars tend to make me bloat and cramp if I even...

    Last major straight gluten exposure for me was in June, went out with a friend to celebrate and they said the chicken was gluten-free. Seemed to have a sauce on it but I ignored it and had a tiny bit in my salad. Within minutes I had a feeling in my mouth, sores, and my lymph nodes started hurting. I knew then but it was going to be bad later, few hours later...

    Yep so can sympathize with this, I make my own Cinnamon Roll Cookie Cake, or Maple Cinnamon Cake, Fix a bit more extravagant meal with extra effort. and book a hotel in a vacation spot for the night. I pack up prefixed meals, my cake, meds and snacks and me and my girl head out to spend a lovely few nights out, eat at the hotel and treat ourselves. Can not...

    Sounds like my everyday, I also have multiple allergies and intolerance on top of my celiacs. Fear of eating out, fear of going to others houses, even the fear of finding gluten in one of my current stable foods. I mean I get contamination from odd sources, get sick and feel like a kicked dog over analyzing and throwing stuff away sometimes or going back...

    I did not mean the literal term "Caked" I was referring to food particles sometimes staying in trace amounts in the intestines in recesses, folds, etc. In the case of gluten or other allergens I notice the symptoms hang around a bit sometimes for a week or two til it clears all up. While not directly related I phrased this wrong. I am sorry for the misconception...

    Might try eating more Nuts, Seeds, and supplementing your diet with nutritional yeast. Dairy might cause some issues with the gluten gone the dairy could be more easily permeating your intestinal walls causing irritation. Give it a few weeks for your body to adapt. After going gluten free some people get extreme issues after the first 2 weeks as their body...

    Been running into a issue trying to find gluten free mushrooms. Seems as of late they like to grow them on a compost mix including oak chips, contaminated oats and rye or use a grain like rye for a spore carrier in starting batches. I have ran EZ-Gluten test and gotten positive results on several of the fresh ones in the stores, called and confirmed...

    My issues with starches, and sugars is that I no longer digest them very well. Bloat really easy and feel uncomfortable now days if I eat them. But yeah there is always that worry that what if you eating something contaminated, and stress can cause all sorts of chaos with ones body. Sticking to certain brands you trust and are certified gluten-free helps...

    Not sure what kind of test, they drew blood for it, I was on a gluten-free/wheat free diet for months when they did it. He did want to scope me but after setting up for the procedure and insurance only willing to cover 80% of it leaving me with a 1600+ usd bill I had to cancel it. I only have the lab results copies for the Allergen testing with the blood...

    I have had a few test done earlier in the year for gluten sensitivity and came back negative, also has a bunch of allergy test done. I have found my symptoms come from even non-gluten wheat exposure, such as vinegar, gluten-free certified wheat grass, some liquors. The doctor says it seems to be that my body is treating wheat itself as a toxin, I can not...

    Yeah, my issues with bobs was soy contamination. I have had some recent success with spices, I am dealing with 3 other companies, for everything else. I have a one that is great for nut meals, and cocoa (organic, and gluten free) I have one for oat for making my own oat flour and they use strict standards with guaranteed below 3ppm and no hotspots. And I...

    Bit of a thought, try dropping both, getting the individual ingredients by themselves and try using just a teaspoon of one. Might be nasty and bland but would help figure out what it is that is bothering you. It could just be a one uses the offending ingredient in a higher concentration then the others or has something that off sets it. Oddly when you mentioned...

    The testing is done on non certified goods. The companies have said they do not use anything containing gluten but say they can not so for their suppliers. I just do it as a precaution, and this is why I was asking on suggestions for new suppliers. Bit of paranoia on my part. And is there any kind of organization or group that might sponsor/donate some...

    I have been selling gluten free goods at the local farmers market for over a year now. Bit hit and miss as I get limited on what to take by kitchen issues and contamination making me throw some out. So I started working on making a gluten free bakery in a old apparment building down town in Ennis. This is both for my own health and sanity, and to be able...

    Yeah I made mind a bit special using a bit of chia, ground chia, ground flax and some other things for extra binding and texture to give it more rye bread like feeling, Works best toasted, been selling it at the local farmers market, along with other gluten free baked goods.I still feel its missing something, I could get some carmalized sugar to ground into...

    Yeah I have made imitation rye bread gluten free using mixes of flours and caraway seeds. Taste pretty close, and toasted you dont even notice the texture much. Does not sell very well due to me calling it Gluten Free Rye Bread. Still trying to improve it, I get the flavor from a mix of the caraway seeds, and adding garbanzo bean and fava bean flour to get...
