ARCHIVED Do You Want A Cigarette...

Thanks for sharing that. I really like it. -
Beau Jo's is good I did it dairy, soy and gluten-free (I don't know about corn and eggs though).

ARCHIVED Should I Try?
Mango04 replied to a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I agree that the artificial sweetner might be a problem as well. Whenever I've eaten anything with that stuff in it, I've suffered horrible symptoms including bloating and stomach aches. I like honey in my tea...and small amounts of raw sugar once in a while. Couldn't hurt to try a gluten-free diet either . The good news your typical diet will make... -

OMG I know! I like "roughing" it...as long as I am within walking distance of a nice restroom with a shower LOL -

I dunno, but I hope so, because I've hung out with some kangaroos here and they weren't scary. Hi Julie!!!!!!! Sorry you're sick -

no Thanksgiving of course hehe (actually no turkey ever generally speaking - except maybe on Christmas). I'll be home just before Christmas though Uh - this was not the right place to post about camping huh? I was so worried about the dingos I wasn't thinking about any other aspect of it. How dumb am I? I've been researching insect repellent... -
ARCHIVED How Will I Manage A Wedding ?
Mango04 replied to georgie's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
On 24 hour flights I order raw vegetarian meals, which basically consists of raw fruits and vegetables. I bring almonds, corn thins with peanut butter, cans of tuna, Organic Food Bars (you can get these in Oz), banannas and usually a cooler with chicken and more veggies. When you're staying with family you'll have a kitchen so it shouldn't be a problem... -

You know what's funny about those crackers? I always Rachel them! Always! I don't normally Rachel things either...but there's something in those crackers....(I don't eat them anymore though, in honor of this thread... ) Laura - I'm so glad you went "off" on your doctor! Evie - Sorry you're not feeling well Julie - Yes, that happens... -
ARCHIVED What Do You Think, Could I Have Celiac Disease?
Mango04 replied to Curious121's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
If you do have celiac disease or gluten intolerance, that makes sense. Gluten can damage your intestines to the point where everything you eat can cause gas and discomfort. If you eliminate gluten for long enough to allow yourself to heal, certain foods that bothered you before might become tolerable. I hope you figure it out soon -
ARCHIVED How Will I Manage A Wedding ?
Mango04 replied to georgie's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I think there was somone on this board who travelled to England and said the gluten-free food was great. I was there several years ago when I was only casein-free..but the food labeling was really good. I ate lots and never had a problem. The grocery stores had a good selection of stuff. Where are you staying? In a hotel? Will you have access to any... -
ARCHIVED How Will I Manage A Wedding ?
Mango04 replied to georgie's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I've been to three weddings since I've been gluten, dairy and soy-free. One was at a really upscale resort, so I spoke to the chef and managed to get a really nice gluten, dairy and soy-free meal that didn't make me sick. That's one option. At another wedding there was tons of plain fruits and veggies everywhere so I just ate that stuff. At... -
ARCHIVED What Do You Think, Could I Have Celiac Disease?
Mango04 replied to Curious121's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi - You could have celiac disease. It wouldn't hurt to get tested. If the test comes back negative, you might eliminate gluten (and maybe casein) from your diet anyway and see how you feel. Your symptoms definitely seem to point to the possibility of food intolerance or celiac disease. I see that you've clearly pinpointed the foods that really... -
ARCHIVED Help! No Potato Chips?! (lectin Problem?) Replacement?
Mango04 replied to oceangirl's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Can you eat tarro? I believe Terra Chips makes some sort of chip that does not contain the sweet potatoes. Dried peas might be an options as well (the salty, greasy ones LOL) -
For me, in order to remain healthy, I need to be gluten-free, soy-free, dairy-free and I need to stick to an all natural organic diet. If I so much as eat too much processed sugar, too much pre-packaged gluten-free food, or too many vegetables that aren't organic, I start to feel really "glutened" I know it sounds crazy, but I think it's worth pointing...

ARCHIVED Need Breakfast Ideas And Snack Ideas
Mango04 replied to alexschatzi's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Breakfast: fruit (with or without nut butters), bacon, hot rice cereal with fruit and rice/almond or soy milk, smoothies, potatoes, gluten-free toast, gluten-free pancakes (you can easily make them egg/dairy free), tofu scramble if you can't eat eggs (Amy's makes a good frozen one - it's actually good). You could probably make a good breakfast sandwich with... -
ARCHIVED Beware Helpful Mothers
Mango04 replied to mackmackmackie's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
In Australia, any gluten would need to be clearly marked on the label. If it just says maltodextrin, but doesn't say where it's from, you should be okay. (The label reading in this country is just way too easy ) Oh...and I wanted to add...if you're reading about how to find gluten on food labels, make sure you're finding sources of info. that are... -
ARCHIVED Anyone Have Problems With Corn Tortillas?
Mango04 replied to Yenni's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have problems with processed foods in general, regardless of whether or not the product was made in a gluten-free facility. When I do eat a processed food, it has to be something that contains very few (preferably organic) ingredients. I really like the Food for Life tortillas though. The fact that the corn is sprouted makes it much easier to digest... -
ARCHIVED Anyone Have Problems With Corn Tortillas?
Mango04 replied to Yenni's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
You might want to check out Food for Life sprouted corn tortillas. -
I think the fact that we on this board have been discussing and debating the McDs fries issue for months and months and months and months just proves how powerful the fast food industry really is. If any other food had the word "wheat" anywere near the ingredient list I think 99.9% of the people here would instantaneously run from that food without a...

ARCHIVED Searching For A Natural Shampoo, And gluten-free.
Mango04 replied to barilla's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I like California Baby and Aubrey Organics (the Aubrey conditioner isn't gluten-free though). -
ARCHIVED Cooking Without Refined Sugar
Mango04 replied to alexschatzi's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Sorry I can't explain it well but here's one article about it: Open Original Shared Link If you google "refined sugar dangers" lots and lots of info. comes up. You might check out a raw foods cook book. They seem to be able to make really sweet ice cream and "baked" goods with no sugar at all -
ARCHIVED Corn Tortilla Roll-ups

ARCHIVED Chicken And Smoked Gouda Wrap
Mango04 replied to Green12's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Uh oh is that my title? I'm working on it really...trying to be more open-minded about cheese LOL. Not in the sense of eating it...just thinking hmmmm...that must be a nice thing for other people to eat haha I think I posted this recently but I have to give another shout out to Corn Thins. You can make any sandwich with Corn Thins instead... -
ARCHIVED Chicken And Smoked Gouda Wrap
Mango04 replied to Green12's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Nooo the Food for Life rice ones are huge. OMG they are great...how I miss them so I like hummus, avocado and some chicken or turkey with some herbs de provence (lol that sounds so snobby), sea salt and pepper...sometimes the addition of red leaf lettuce and even some carrot and cucumber sticks is yummy. Or instead of hummus I make that ranch type...
