    Is it simply possible that the gluten is cross contaminating from the priest holding the other hosts first? I know the issues behind being Catholic and their stance on the host. It was a disaster for my daughter's first communion. While her sensitivity level is not one that is bothered by the trace amounts in the host I purchased, my concern is that...

    My 6 yo daughter (very picky eater) loves the Natures Plus Animal Parade. She likes to pick out which Animal she is going to have. They are orange flavored and I buy them in a health food store. Good Luck!

    I have seen corn gluten listed several times, does anyone know if this is safe?

    McDonald's french fries are NOT gluten-free. They are only gluten-free if a dedicated fryer is used which is often not the case. Please don't assume that they are without asking.

    What an excellent idea! I will look around for a thermos. Thank you! I knew someone would get the wrong idea from my post. I just couldn't find the right words that I needed to explain myself I have never given my daughter any reason to think that there is something wrong with her because of her Celiac or that I feel sorry for her. The post was...

    My daughter is starting Kindergarten this fall in a private 12-k school and I am wondering how other parents handled the heating up of their kids food for lunch. She is at pre-school now and the teacher's handle everything for her, but I know that she will not be catered to at this school the same way. She is 5yo and very bright (which is how she got...

    This is FANTASTIC news. My 5yo daughter has Celiac AND is an extremely picky eater. The more options that I have the better. She WILL eat cheeseburgers so that's at least a saving grace LOL. We just went to the Outback today and it was simply awesome!

    What type of insurance do you have? Do you require a referral or can you see whoever you need to? Is there any kind of a Children's hospital near you? Can your doctor friend check in her circle of doctors to see if someone knows an endocrinologist or growth and nutrtition specialist in your area? I was given the run around too. But I tend to be on the...

    My daughter's GI doctor is Dr. Nurko at Children's Hospital. Another excellent dr at Children's is Dr. Markowitz, he's a nutiotionist. Depending on where you live, there is an AWESOME store in Stoneham Mass on Main St that I go to all the time. The Natural Food Exchange. They have all the good stuff that I think every child should have. Chocolate Chip...

    The "hidden" gotchas that I have trouble sorting through are artificial flavorings, caramel coloring, Modified Food Starch (some are gluten-free some aren't). Vanilla, HVP - Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein, vinegar and annatto (yellow coloring in cheese) are among the most frequent ones that I see. The biggest issues that I have with meat are when dealing with...

    I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for replying. I will definitely be trying these!

    I absolutely agree with aramgard, Schars has been hands down the best pasta I have tried. I tried several varieties of rice pastas without any luck (couldn't get by the taste). Schars tastes exactly like regular pasta! I have tried several shapes by them too, Rigatti (looks like ziti), spaghetti, lasagna - they were all wonderful. They also have some crackers...

    I am interested in knowing if anyone has found an easy cheese sauce that I can use to make macaroni and cheese for my daughter. I use the Schar pastas (and anything else with their name) and it is fabulous. It is the best pasta I have tasted since starting this diet for my daughter. Since I have found the perfect pasta (it honest to goodness tastes exactly...

    I'm sorry this isn't exactly the response you are looking for, but I have a 4.5 yo daughter who is 23lbs and I can't get her to gain any weight either. I wanted to make a comment about the McDonalds french fries. I'm not sure where you are from, but around here they do not use a seperate fryer for the french fries. Everything that is fried goes into the same...
