    Paulina-- can you tell us what brand of licorice that is? I so miss licorice sometimes. I love that when I was on holidays and asked them if flour, bread, or wheat was used in anything that they did not look at me like I was a hydra. I love that the chefs at the resort or who recognized me and knew what my dietary needs were.

    Well Tiffany--I did not interpret it in any other way than you meant it. I would like to add. I hate living in a redneck city where men think you are only beautiful if you are 6 ft tall 93 lbs, mammary glands that reach Banff, blonde, 20 years old and dumber than a can of sardines. I have never been tall enough, thin enough or dumb enough for the men...

    I told the manager in the Montgomery Safeway that if Safeway had originally advertised they had gluten-free foods etc., they would have had a bigger repsone. I also told him that Safeway has just made our lives that much more difficult. It is so sad that when I go into Safeway all I buy is fruits, veggies, tofu and rice vermicelli noodles.

    Isn't it funny how you can hate certain words. I had "irregardless" because it is not a word and a double negative. I also hate the word "issues" it makes me crazy.

    I would study up on what are normal foods in Cyprus. I was good in Jamaica because they had tons of fresh fruits and their cuisine does not contain loads of flour and wheat. I wish you the best of luck in Cyprus and let us know how it goes.

    I think that could be slang for lower private body parts. I have no idea what it is either.

    Patti--I sure do but I cleared mine long enough to write that. I have my moments.

    Tiffany, I think you should love sharing food sparingly. What if they love your food and run off with it? Then you would hate them for eating all your food. This love hate thing is a love/hate relationship and can lead to positive feelings about negative things that could cause positive results in a negative manner.

    I have never had long thick lashes unless I stick them on. The boys in the family have nice lashes but not me the diagnosed Celiac.

    Here be a list. Earths Oven on 33 Ave SW in Marda Loop is good bread and pizza crusts. Terra Cotto not to far from there in the old Currie Barracks farmers market has wonderful lasagne etc all gluten-free because they are Celiacs. Amaranth is good in the NW and there is a Planet Organic going to be finished this month in the NW not far from Market...

    I love my son, grandkids and DIL. I love my family for supporting me in celiac disease and accepting that I have this. I love my cats and missed them when I was away. I love that they sleep with me and kiss me, they make me feel so good. I love that as much as this disease is a pain that it is also a blessing in disquise. I love travelling...

    I think that is why they can't find it. When they have their heads up it all they see is crap.

    In my family my son, myself and his two children are a mosquitos buffet. In Jamaica, I was the only one of 18 people who not only was bit but sustained bites on from my feet, covering my legs and arms. I had a base tan before I went and others were more pale than I but I was pretty well the most bit person in the resort. That has been the way it is for me...

    I might as well get in on a good thing. I hate that the medical profession can't find their butts with both hands and their arrogance prevents them from listening and diagnosing things like celiac disease and other medical issues. Thus causing so many people to suffer. I hate that I had to leave 31C temperatures to come back to freezing temperatures...

    I can attest to the pain not being worth it. I was on holidays and everyone was having the red snapper in mushroom sauce or all the Jamaican chocolate rum cake or other pastries. I opted for their delicious gluten/diary-free coconut and mango ice cream. I think I got the better deal and no pain. The one time I got accidently gluten with a minute bit and I...

    The Kinnickinnik rice/tapioca cheese bread is good. I discovered the secret was to take it out of the fridge and pop it in the toaster oven for a few minutes and it becomes soft.

    I like the Celi Mix pancake mix, the Kinnickinnik bagels and rice/tapioca cheese bread.

    I think about the drugs that say they will cure psoriasis etc. But the side effects are heart attack etc. I think I have enough poison drugs in my system with my inhalers which I need. I do not need a pill that allows me to eat something to find out in the end it my destroy an important organ in my body or something else. I am just as happy being gluten-free...

    Nuts do not cause kidney stones. My brother who is allergic to nuts never eats them got kidney stones and he was told it was because he does not drink enough water. He never drinks water. I who have had kidney problems but no stones eat nuts all the time but I also drink 2-3 liters of water a day. Tofu is a great source of protein along with seeds and...

    The only time I get sick is when being glutened. I find just the opposite, everyone at work has been sick many times over and I have not got the flu at all. Howevr, I do keep getting a reoccuring eye infection and everytime I go to the doctor it disappears. However if it is not gone this time when I see him then he can see it, he figures it could be shingles...

    I don't care what they call it, we have it, we can't get rid of it so it is a disease.
  22. Rusla
    I get angry because there is no need to put wheat in french fries, hash browns, chocolate or a number of other items. I walk into the store I buy rice noodles and fruit and vegetables and leave. I had better choices of food in Jamaica than I do here...go figure.

    Rusla replied to Rusla's topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease

    I am a person who likes to get away from the touristy things and get into the cultural. Unfortunately the friend I was with only wanted to shop. I think next time I will get my sister to go with me as we like to get into the nitty gritty. I was heartbroken going from high 90's farenheit to freezing and snow. I was meant to live in the Caribbean.

    It depends on how badly glutened I got. If it is minimal it can take a day or three if it is severe, then it takes much longer.

    The Hershey's mini bars are not gluten-free. M&M's are good as they are gluten-free also. I am personally heartbroken over Lindt and Terry's not being gluten-free.
