	ARCHIVED Natural Flavors: Worth A Risk?jaimi alderson posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications Hi there, Does anyone ever take a risk with natural flavors? I have found what looks to be some excellent wine coolers but can not get a hold of the company. These are California Coolers Wine Coolers which are definitely WINE not malt based. The only questionable ingredient would be the Natural Flavors which are the very last ingredient listed. I do...

	ARCHIVED California Wine Coolersjaimi alderson replied to jaimi alderson's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications Hi! Yes the malt thing is correct, we can not have malt. It was wonderful because they changed all the wine coolers over to malt the month I got diagnosed a year ago. Anyway, these fabulous six packs are wine based & new. The only thing we couldn't have would be the natural flavors. Thanks! Jaimi

	ARCHIVED California Wine Coolersjaimi alderson posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications Hi! Does anyone know if the new California Coolers are gluten-free? These are a new wine cooler product made by a company called Majestic Brands. I can not find a website for them, thus have no phone number. I am pretty sure if I called them they would say they don't know if they are gluten-free or not, like most fun flavored wine drinks tell me. Just...

	ARCHIVED Ricotta?jaimi alderson replied to ebrbetty's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications Hello, I am making lasagna for my mother-in-law's bday dinner & my Precious Ricotta says it has vinegar. Could anyone remind me of what the rule is on vinegar? It does not say distilled vinegar. Thank you, Jaimi

	ARCHIVED gluten-free Sugar-free Pancake Syrupjaimi alderson posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications Could anyone possibly give me some gluten-free sugar free pancake syrups? I think Aunt Jemima is but they don't have that at my usual store. Thank you! Jaimi

	ARCHIVED gluten-free In Seattle?jaimi alderson replied to jaimi alderson's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants Couple more quick things, the Co-op in Ashland has no-boil gluten-free lasagna noodles & Market of Choice in Ashland has the gluten-free Budweiser beer, which I didn't like but at least they have it!

	ARCHIVED gluten-free In Seattle?jaimi alderson replied to jaimi alderson's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants Oh wow! I live 2 miles from Eagle Point. Small World! I get my food at Fred Meyer, and then my corn/rice cake things at Food 4 Less. Fred Meyer is more expensive with less of a selection but it is a nicer store with a drop-off child play area so it is worth it to me! Food 4 Less has a great gluten-free selection but the store is not very nice! Popular...

	Larry, You are the best. Thank you so much for that wonderful info. I just can not believe I have gone almost a year without a non-Outback margarita. It would have taken me a year to find all of that info you gave me. Thank you so very much, I will be trying my new margarita as soon as I can! thank you! jaimi

	Hi there Momma Goose, Thank you for the coke/pepsi idea, I was planning on trying your 7&7 idea. I know people who drink that I just have never tried it. I don't know what Seagrams is, but 7up would be great. Thanks for your help! jaimi

	Hi! I am going to visit my sister in Seattle in March & wanted to know if anyone had any restaurant tips for that big city for me! Does anyone have a favorite restaurant that does gluten-free to your standards? Or a bar that you know has gluten-free margaritas? I guess I am being optimistic about the bar, they won't really let my kids in but maybe...

	Hey Courtney, I do not get to go out, well really ever, because my kids are 2 & 4 so I don't have a regular bar. We are going out to a really fancy restaurant in February for my grandpa's 90th & I was just thinking it would be so nice to have a daiquiri or something. I am also going to Seattle in March for my first real trip away from my kitchen...

	Could anyone tell me if there is a mixed drink I can order at a bar? My favorite used to be a margarita but aside from homemade or Outback I don't know how I could order one at a bar. I am not a big fan of coke, I use to prefer any fruity girly drinks but have had to stick to red wine since diagnosed. Does anyone have any suggestions? thanks!

	ARCHIVED gluten-free Vanillajaimi alderson posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications Could anyone possibly tell me what vanilla to buy to cook with? I don't care if it is real or artificial, as long as it is gluten-free! I shop at Fred Meyer so Kroger or any of the other mainstream brands would work. Thank you!

	ARCHIVED Delphi List/genisoyjaimi alderson posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications Hello! Does anyone have any comments on the Genisoy products such as Soycrisps or Genisoy Protein Bars that are listed on the current Delphi List as gluten-free but when I read the label it says these products are manufactured in a plant that processes milk, wheat & peanuts? Doesn't that mean the company is unwilling to state they are gluten-free? And...

	ARCHIVED Delphijaimi alderson replied to jaimi alderson's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications I was thinking of doing Sloppy Joe's on top of baked potatoes because I don't like chili with beans.

	ARCHIVED Delphijaimi alderson replied to jaimi alderson's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications Hi! Thank you for that info! It looks like they wiped the list clean & are starting over as there were so many items on there that had not been updated for 5 years. That is what had to happen to be accurate but now the list is so small! All I am looking for is a bbq sauce I can eat! Any suggestions? Or a gluten-free sloppy joe pre-made seasoning packet...

	ARCHIVED Delphijaimi alderson posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications It appears to me that the Delphi list changed the format & now I can not get my regular list of gluten-free foods to display on that site. What site can I use to look up gluten-free products? I was kind of hoping to find a free one as I don't consider this a fun thing to spend money on! I loved the Delphi list because you could click on a type of food...

	Hi! Does anyone order a burger with cheese at McDonald's? Obviously with no bun...but I can not find on their website if their cheese or hamburger alone are gluten-free. I am traveling for pretty much my first time since diagnosis tomorrow morning & need to know what I can eat at McD's. Thank you!

	ARCHIVED Minute-maid Lemonadejaimi alderson posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications Does anyone know if Minute Maid Lemonade-pink or yellow-frozen concentrate is gluten-free? I need an answer quicker than emailing the company if anyone can help! Delphi list said "all varieties" of minute maid is gluten-free but that is a pretty broad statement. Thank you!

	ARCHIVED My Sisters Have The Genesjaimi alderson posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms Does anyone know any way to prevent active disease? I have DQ2 gene & active disease diagnosed 3-15-06. Just found out today my half-sisters have DQ2 and DQ2 & DQ8 (I have 2 half-sisters.) Can we prevent them from getting active disease?

	ARCHIVED Gene Testing: 40% Of Population?jaimi alderson posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms Does anyone know which gene-DQ2 or DQ8-is present in 40% of the general population? I read at one point that that is the case & can not remember or find which gene it is. I have DQ2 with active disease & just got results for my half-sisters: one has DQ2 & the other has DQ2 & DQ8!! Thank you

	ARCHIVED Body Shopjaimi alderson posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications Does anyone just go ahead & use body lotion that could possibly have gluten in it? I have a pre-diagnosis bottle of body shop lotion that I love. It has no gluten ingredients but does have fragrance & the company will not state gluten-free or not. I thought I could just use it on arms & legs & wash my hands really good. I don't get symptoms...
