    Ener-g Tapioca Light. The regular tapioca isn't very good. But the "light" is awesome. No toasting needed. It tastes like glutened sandwich white bread. Also, they have a seattle brown bread. But it was so moist it fell apart. I can't find the light in stores, but they sell it online. Very good. I have hated every other kind I have tried.

    I'm not doing anything. I don't take vitamins or have a very balanced diet. I'm a really busy grad student so I don't even have time to work out. In otherwords, I don't have a healthy life style. Maybe something developing celiac triggered a gene or something. I'm not really sure. I can't figure it out. My wife has had all sorts of things including strep...

    My experience has been quite different. In the 5.5 years that I have had celiac, I haven't gotten (NON CS) sick at all. Not a single cold, flu, cough, ache/pain, sneeze, sniffle or anything. I know I've been exposed because my wife gets colds alot. I had started a similar post to this about six weeks ago and there were a couple of other people who hadn't...

    I have to recommend the Ener-g Tapioca light bread. It tastes like real bread. It isn't graining like the others. The regular tapioca bread has to be toasted or it isn't really edible. Try the 'light".

    Right Smack dab in the middle of Illinois (Bloomington Normal). I'm lucky. There a few stores within thirty minutes of here. Is the whole foods place you go to the one in Morrisville? I also noticed that there are 4 or five Krogers in Raliegh. We are a smaller city (120,000) and have only three Krogers. One of which has four kinds of bread, flours, cookies...

    I used to have to go to a local health food store to get the Ener-g tapioca bread. But now one of our three Kroger stores carries it. As for the Tapioca light bread, I have to get it online. I believe, but may be off a bit, that it was like 17 dollars for a case of six loafs. The downside is that shipping was like five/six dollars and it takes took ten days...

    Bread had been the most frustrating part of being gluten-free for me. I have probably tried ten different kinds. I finally found some premade bread that works. It seems like alot of them have to be toasted just to be useful. For toast, I use Ener-g Tapioca bread. It tastes just like regular people toast. For sandwiches, I used the Tapioca light. It tastes...

    Hi. I know I 'm a guy, but I can give my perspective. I found out that I had CS in the Spring of 2000. I got married shortly after that. I never really stayed on my diet until about 2.5 years ago. My wife and I were not trying to get pregnant, nor were we taking any precautions. We just had the attitude that when it happened, it happened. About six months...

    I just called our local Friar Tuck's (Bloomington IL). They said they have no idea when Bard's will be back. I think there was another thread about that earlier today. They did have New Grist and one other kind of gluten-free beer. I was going to check it out this weekend. I've never had gluten-free beer. I was always under the impression regular beer was...

    Sorry!!! I haven't been to a Meijer yet and didn't realize they are only in the midwest. I do apologize. For those in the midwest, here is the link from the ad. Open Original Shared Link

    Did anybody else the email version of the latest Meijer advertisement? We (Bloomington Normal IL) are going to get a Meijer next month. My mom gets the ad's via email. Thier latest one has a big link at the bottom asking if you are gluten free. It then lists all of the gluten free stuff they carry and ascerts that they are working on a list of thier own gluten...

    Hi, I'm a masters student at Illinois State University. I was diagnosed during my junior years. I lived off campus so I didn't really have to experience the dining halls. I do however, have two friends that are managers in the dining facilities. They both told me that we had several celiacs whom they had to accomodate. I know they had a couple of types of...

    Yeah, "cause your special" is an online seller. We used the pizza crust last night. Just before that, I had to go out to a pizza place with my friends for a meeting. But we made My pizza when we got home. Its pretty easy. You have to mix it up, bake the crust by itself, add your sauces and toppings and then bake it again. It sounds like a process, but it...

    We order the "Famous Pizza Crust" from 'Cause your special. It is really light, not grainy and tastes like the real thing. We also use it to make breadsticks.

    Heather: Everything will get better. I was diagnosed with in the middle of my jr. year of college. My GPA had slipped from a 3.5 to 2.5 because I felt bad and finally the eighth doctor figured out what I had. Two months after being diagnosed, I mentally snapped and ended up at the emergency room with a self inflicted (superficial) stab wound. It never should...

    Hi, i'm new to this board and have a generalized question. I've had (diagonosed) celiac sprue for six years now. I've noticed that since i've had it, I don't get sick. I haven't had a cold, the flu, aches, pains or anything. I know for a fact that I have been directly exposed to Strept Throat and the flu on numerous occasions. My wife (non celiac) gets sick...
