    "If is gonna come out, it will the first time you use it" will absoulutely give me comfort. The nurse in me is too focused on cross contamination. I am thinking if I put a pan or pen in a shelf or drawer that has gluten in or on it then I will need to reclean the entire shelf or drawer and all items in it and worse never know the source. It is really...

    Thanks for responding. I decided you are absolutely right that I just need to get rid of them anyway. I was going to throw away most of my quality pots and pans because all of them over the years have scratches or even some pitting in them? I am trying to understand the concept related to scratches on kitchen items. Do I consider if the item is nonporous...

    I would eat gluten throughout the day while drinking my coffee pre diagnosis. So exchange from my mouth to the rim of the cup. Some of my cups have areas no longer glazed or with scratches on them on that rim. Wondering if those are small areas that gluten could hide and be difficult to clean because porous (due to scratches or deglazed areas). Still...

    I just noticed my favorite coffee mugs which are probably glazed porcelain or possibly glazed ceramic are showing wear along the rim surface (where you place your lips). Can they be washed well or is this a source of cross contamination? I haven't noticed this topic anywhere. I read not to use steel wool on porcelain or glass in other threads. Is this...

    I will never forget the kindness of his time (GFinDC), just as you remembered some of his words. Thanks for giving me a chuckle. I have the hubby thing squared away....."Unless you too are gluten free, due to cross contamination, we can't have sex." Of course he is clueless and actually believes me. Hence, HE HAS CHOSEN to go gluten free!:):) Of course...

    Thanks for responding. Being asymptomatic, I want to be as responsible about cleaning as possible up front. Boy this can bring out almost an OCD attitude! Never heard any talk about vacuum cleaners but this could be a source to spread gluten all over the house I would think. The Oral B electric toothbrush has plastic and rubber on handle so probably has...

    Reference the knives, most of them have wood or a black type of plastic for the handle. With plastic handle, isn't rule of thumb to throw out all plastic especially if it is textured at all?

    New with celiac, cleaning kitchen. Love this site but a few questions: Do you throw away knives that have the hard black plastic type handle? It is not a smooth handle so is treated like all plastic in kitchen? What is the blade has minor scratch? Don't know if the I have to give up expensive carving knives. Do all serrated knives go? (I have seen...
