    I order some foods through a Co-op thingy and I was able to get the Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Oatmeal this month!!!! It says that it is grown in fields dedicated to oats, so I felt comfy eating it. I jsut had it for lunch and it tasted soooo good!!! Apples, brown sugar, butter and sprinkle of cinnamon. I just had to share this with other people...

    Oh, if this is true it has just made my life so much easier!!! boy #3 is in a picky phase and ONLY wants Hidden Valley Ranch, so we have 2 opened bottles at all times, since I was told a HV had gluten.......and now I don't have to search out other ranch mixes for some of my recipes, including my taco soup, too!!!! I can use Hidden Valley!!! That and y...

    OH!!! I have THE answer for you....I am from St. Louis originally and the Kinnikinik crusts are too thick and sweet for a really good pizza for me. I found Chebe mixes to be AWESOME......better than when I was baking WITH gluten....... Just about any of the flavors work. I follow the directions on the back as far as mixing goes....then seperate the...

    I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this, but thought I'd ask anyway......a friend told me that she is using Kix cereal in a snack for her son's class. There is a little girl in the class that is gluten-free and her mom told my friend that Kix was ok to use. I don't think so......I looked on here as best I could, but apparently you have to have more...

    Thanks so much for your responses. He's in 5th grade and so he has a lot of control over what he eats. Right now he is willing to only eat what I tell him he can. I'm trying to keep him very bland and no lactose for at least a couple days and see if we can get him feeling better. Since I went gluten-free, the whole family eats gluten-free in the...

    So I discovered I was gluten intolerant about 1 1/2 years ago......really think at least 2 of my kids have a gluten intolerance also.....one of them went for all sorts of testing last summer...all normal. SO, tonight he tells me that he is sick of having cramps, diarreaha (why is that word so hard to spell????) blah blah blah. Writes down a list of his...

    So we are taking the boys to Florida to visit grandparents and enjoy 8 days of sunshine. We have a condo in Orlando so I will be able to do some cooking and etc. Don't want to do much though, and knowing my family as I do, the boys will NOT want to eat in often. Breakfast is the one thing I will be able to count on. SO.... I need to know where...

    I'd also love to know the answer to this question. I am so leary of the cappucino mixes....soemtimes drink them anyway and soemtimes feel funny, sometimes I'm ok.....anyone have any answers???

    ok here is my 2cents. I was diagnosed with clinical rhuamatoid arthiritis at 25, which means that all my tests came back normal, but my body wasn't and so THANKFULLY my doc recognized my symptoms and treated me. I was on various meds, trial and error. Enbrel for 5 years, helped immensely. THe joint pain, fatigue etc....so much better, a lot like what...

    Thanks for all the suggestions. We are going to get to their house early in the day, so I am just going to offer to make the entire dinner. I was going to do a big chunk of it anyway, but if I offer to make it all, then she won't get all stressed out in the kitchen and she and grandpa and dad can take care of the hooligans while I spend my afternoon in...

    THOSE are really good!!! I forgot about them!!! Great Idea!!!

    I think I could ask for a plain turkey, that shouldn't send them over the edge. I think that is what they get anyway.....we will be arriving the Friday before so maybe I can just ask my MIL if I can go and do the shopping with her, that way I can check all the labels. I really do not want to fly home 2 days later with a gluten hangover, especially with...

    I made ginger cookies that ended up being way too crumbly, so I just crumbled them all up and they are in the freezer awaiting that very thing you mentioned. IT was a mix from Grandma Ferndons. I think it was actually ginger snaps

    My friend said something about it being injected. They get the free range type because of that. We are traveling to Florida for Thanksgiving, and my in-laws don't quite get the whole gluten-free thing. I went to dinner with them this past weekend and they kept trying to get me to "take just ONE bite, it's so good" of their soup, or the breaded shrimp...

    A friend's brother is Celiac and I was told they have to get a special turkey every year so he can eat it. I am going on my first year gluten-free and didn't even THINK that I couldn't have a butterball turkey.........so does anyone have a quick answer before I spend hours trying to figure this one out......Can I just buy a frozen turkey from the grocery...

    I buy from UNBC also. Sometimes someone will want a box or two of what I buy, but mostly I jsut get the cases of things. It is nice so that I have staples on hand and don't have to run into the health food store for special things all the time. THe local grocery has more and more, but I bake a lot and so it is cheaper for me to buy bulk.

    The EnerG sesame ones are my favorite. Glutinos are ok, but have found I prefer EnerG. I also like that they come in smaller bags and easy for snacking on trips and carpooling and etc....

    I don;t think she meant that hydrogenated oils have anything to do with gluten. I think she meant that hydrogenated oils are not healthy for you because (as a friend who is a chemist says) it is like eating diesel fuel. The chemical makeup of hydrogenated oils is close to diesel fuel and he (our chemist friend) tries to avoid it for his family. Since...
