  1. Brewers Yeast-not allowed-has gluten in it but they don't know how much.

    Autolyzed Yeast- gluten-free and broken down by it's own enzymes derived from baker yeast, almost always.

    Baker' Yeast-allowed for us.Condensed dry cells of fungus grown on sugar molasses.

    Nutritional Yeast.- safe for us.Grown on molasses, sold as a nutritional supplement and sometimes called brewers yeast. Comes in powder or tablets.

    Tortula Yeast-allowed for us .Dried primary grown yeast, used to create a bready, savory flavor in food products. Can be used as a carrier in spices and food products.

  2. I would definitely take some food with you of course in the evening you might get a chance to come into the city.

    I'll be graduating with a Conservation Biology major at the end of this month. It'll be great to be outside again for my job. Prior to getting married I always worked outdoors. It's been a long time. I think I'll be doing rangeland vegetation and wildlife monitoring.

    How do you deal with field work and being a celiac?

    Make sure you have stuff that won't give you the big D

    . That sounds like a great job, I would love a job like that.

  3. They opened the door by asking if there was any allergies. You tell them you have severe

    wheat, gluten, and dairy allergies. If they are paying for the meals, you will be able to find things to eat. You can find places to eat, like Moxies in Market Mall, Hi Ball at the Stadium Shopping centre across from the foothills hospital and perhaps get some muffins etc., at Community Natural Foods on 10 ave and 14 St. SW.

  4. Welcome to the group Radman. I think that your presence on these boards will prove VERY interesting in the future. Good continued health to you!

    Especially when we get him drunk and have dance on the tables.

    But yes, I could write a book on how many times I was told I was insane, it was all in my head, it was a parasite that lived in women's bodies, it was the flu and countless other lame things and they would never even do a blood test to find out.

  5. Rusla, yup, you're right... It is god awful expensive in New York, but I found lots of 2 and 3 star hotels for under $75 a night. That's not too bad... Didn't Trump file bankrupcy or something? :rolleyes:

    I'm hoping that the U of M will bite since they have such a good research center. I really think it would be neat to have the first one there. I imagine that's probably not a cheap area to stay in either though... I just had a thought though... Maybe Friday night we could find a place where we could cook a dinner??? I'm not sure how that would work, but I'm sure we could do huge pots of chicken or beef, mashed potatoes, vegetables, etc... It wouldn't be very exciting, but it would make for a really nice meet and greet. We could even have two seperate mashed potatoes, one made with milk and one made with rice milk or dairy free milk or whatever's good. I'm not casein free so I don't know too much about that stuff. Maybe some of the contestants from the cooking contest could help???

    I think ChelsE had a good idea with pre-registration. We could print out name tags or ID badges for each person that pre-registers including their name, their number (for a door prize drawing and to help keep count), and maybe where they're from. Then the people that pre-register are gauranteed entrance. I think we should keep pre-registration to under $20, hopefully like $5-$10, but let's here what everyone thinks about that. I was kind of hoping that we could pull together enough vendors with samples that we wouldn't need to do an official lunch. Maybe we could find a few restaurants in the area to sponsor us with very low cost gluten free lunches and dinners? Everyone could recieve a coupon when they come in and then if they want to leave and have lunch, they could use their coupon. I dunno...

    Advance registration is actually a must. We would have to know how many hotel rooms are needed, how many for lunch if it is provided by the facility etc. We also have to get prices on the site if we can't get it sponsored which would set the registration rate.

    Not only that but without pre-registration the sponsor ship of my products, wil make it impossible to get a proper count, which I need to have enough for men, women and any children under 10 who will be there. Any above 10 will be considered an adult in the product line. We would need all the advance counts for other things like t-shirts and brochures etc.

    Now in regards to hotels if there is one that is close by that will give a good rate as a "convention site," that would definitely work. We used to get convention or show rates all the time when I was showing cats and dogs and we are not having any of those with us.

    $75 a night is not a bad price, I have seen worse prices even where I live.

    On Donald Trump, he may have on one of his companies. But let's face the man is making a killing on his tv show and he is still building things.
