    As I have not been on here in a long time it is still nice to see some of the oldsters like me on here. Jersey Angel, you are looking quite furry today. Anyway, I am a writer, artist, photographer and I can relate to how you feel. They certainly were not much as friends go, were they? I didn't lose my friends, we still talk by phone. The thing is about...

    When I was in Ireland corned beef and cabbage was rarely on the menu. I think I saw it once and that was in Dublin. But I can say I had absolutely no problems eating in Ireland and I love Ireland for many reasons.

    I would like to say that I do not touch the BBQ sauces because a great deal of time they have Barley Malt in them which is a gluten. I have never been made sick by Kraft and I am so sensitive that miniscule crumbs devastate me. I would definitely suggest calling the company. Rusla

    No it won't, Lisa. I think I alone am paying their bills. I have taken four people there who have been bringing their friends and family and I have been there three times this week. Talk about an addict.

    Yes, I have actually I was there twice in two days. Their food is all made from scratch and they serve pizza and delicious chocolate cake. They have a children's menu also. Even though they are far away from me, it is worth it to drive there. There is absolutely no gluten in that restaurant. Go and enjoy it.

    When you are gluten-free you need to be totally gluten free, that means, soaps, shampoos, lotions, food. You must read every label all the time and if you aren't sure don't touch it. I also call all the companies if their phone number is on the bottles. Now, I have DH and being careful of shampoos etc. because it affects the DH also if you have lotion on...

    Worchestershire sauce is almost always wheat/guten based, that is where your problem lies. I do not know where it comes from but I have found a gluten/wheat free one called Wizard.

    i don't think I would want to try it without refridgeration. Since the Splitt closed here last year we have had no restaurants that are gluten free and now we have one and it has pizza. As you can tell I am crazy happy because it is very good food. They also do vegan for the vegans in the city.

    Okay, until you show up here I will be forced to eat your share of chocolate cake and pizza.

    I am so bad, I went back to the restaurant today with another Celiac friend. This time we split a Ceasar Salad that had cheese and garlic croutons, gluten-free of course. It was delicious, then I again had a pizza which was every bit as good as the one yesterday and brought most of it home with me for supper. I also brought another piece of their delicious...

    I found a brand new gluten free restaurant in Calgary today. Granted not in an end of town I usually go to but that is okay. They have only been open five weeks. The name is "A tasty Menu," right now they are only open Wed. to Sunday, 11:00 am - 8:00 pm for now until they get more busy. It is a small modestly designed restaurant. They make everything from...

    I have just returned from Ireland. Believe me whether large city or small town there is no problem staying gluten-free. All I had to do was walk into a restaurant and sa, "I am Celiac." The would adjust anything and some had gluten-free menus, you can buy delicious gluten-free items in every food store.

    I was debating a cruise with some friends, I talked to Holland America. Holland America is very well versed on Celiac disease and said it would be no problem if you let them know at time of booking and again when on board. I also know others who have been on Holland America and said they would travel no other, because not only were they treated like royalty...

    Yellow Rose, welcome. I don't know how to answer your question as having arthritis also does not make joint pain go away. However I can answer about the big "D" if you have that...lol

    When I started my job, I loved it and the coordinator. However, half way through coordinators changed the new took away all our stress toys, no more pats on the back for good things, only kicks in the face. I rewrote a manual for them and I was given three hours to do it in, others rewrote a section of another manual and were given a week to do it in. When...

    I hope to see it soon. Don't retire to here (Canada) as our health care is getting worse by the day. I actually would love to retire to Cuba.

    Thanks David, We are going to be landing in Dublin. That is so wonderful that food is not going to be a problem. As my sister is not Celiac yet or diagnosed we figure we can drink the Apple Cider in the pubs or rum as neither of us can drink the ale's or beers. What is the weather link in Sept-October? Should I get a hefty pair hip waders and rain coat...

    Hi David, Do you live in the Emerald Isle? I got hold of the Coeliac association there and they sent me and awesome list of some restaurants and hotels that are Coeliac friendly. My sister and I are flying from Canada to Ireland on Sept. 25. this year. I was told I should have no problem finding food over in Ireland. I am so excited to be going there.

    ARCHIVED Gluten Free Oats

    Rusla replied to rsm's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    Cream Hill Estates aka Lara's rolled oats are safe. The explanation why they are is this; in normal places that have oats can often put them in bins where wheat has been, it takes more than 20 years to get wheat our of the bins. The Cream Hill Estates Oats have their own bins which were brand new and as the only thing they raise is oats, that is all that...

    Not only can Celiac's be obese but in my two years gluten-free mine has gotten worse. I don't eat read meat, fatty fried foods, drink pop, eat salt, of course no wheat etc. I eat a chocolate bar maybe once every two days. I have no dairy and in the last month my weight went up 30 lbs. I drink lots of water, some fruit juices once in awhile. People say I...

    You have a really great time. I am sure you are excited.

    Many rice milks have barley malt in them. You could use almond mild it has a slightly sweet taste and I would use the original. Now as cakes go both Kinnickinick and el Peto have fantabulous gluten-free cake mixes. So fake them out and do it from the cake mixes.

    Thanks Paulina, Sad, Danish is my heritage and I can't read or speak it and that is one of the reasons we would like to go there for a couple of days. We have relatives we have never seen over there that i one reason we would like to go there and the other is because we have never been there.
  24. Rusla
    Thanks! This sounds great. I have emailed the Irish Coeliac Association in hopes they can also send me a list. Everyone I have talked to who has been to Ireland has said the same as you have. I am so excited.
  25. Rusla
    Well, my sister and I have decided to go to Ireland and maybe fly over to Copenhagen Denmark for a few days in September, So if anyone has been to these places or knows if they have a Celiac Association that I can contact and get information. My sister is fine but I need to find stuff for me. I have decided to make some dehydrated fruit and chicken jerky...
