  1. Excellent idea to bump this, Deb. Thank you.
  2. I use Whole Foods for sandwiches, but Ener-G tapioca loaf for situations where a somewhat sweet (?) bread wouldn't be suitable. Ener-G for a hotdog "roll"..., etc.
  3. In some magazine, Real Simple, my aunt noticed a section on artificial sweeteners. Since you mentioned Stevia, I thought I would share some of this with you. It's the November 2005 issue, on pages 207-213. I am very briefly outlining each: --------------------------------------------------- SPLENDA -- surprisingly, they basically said it's the least...
  4. Scroll down to where it shows the members who are on the forum. Then look right above that where it says board statistics. It's there-- or in other words, go to the place where it has links to today's top 10 posters and overall top 10 posters and look to the left of those.
  5. Yes, I know what you mean. I think there are basically two options: 1) As Kristina said, log out when you leave. That way if you come to this site, you are logged in as a guest and your new posts list isn't disturbed. 2) Go to "today's active topics" (a link on the main page of the forum). Then specify the time range: you can't say specifically,...
  6. Yes--you could be celiac and not have allergies to wheat, rye, barley, etc. Two completely different things....
  7. Hey Colin, I'm almost 15--diagnosed nearly 2 years ago. First, your doctor can't really CHECK for gluten intolerance because you can't diagnose someone with gluten intolerance through any type of test. The doctor would pass that judgment based on your symptoms, perhaps response to gluten-free diet, etc. With regards to symptoms, diarrhea is among...
  8. I very strongly recommend the Whole Foods bread (they have a "gluten-free bakery" and they ship the goods to usually one rack in the store). They also have other terrific baked goods; pies (I've been saving an apple pie in the freezer for Thanksgiving, but they also have cherry, blueberry, etc.), other types of breads, cookies, etc.).
  9. 4th place? That's awesome!!! You're going to become our celiac celebrity, lol -celiac3270
  10. Yes--I had noticed that assistant issue just now when I logged on. Cool updates -- the revamped posting options, warnings are back, new general formatting. What's the new icon? The V-thing--just wondering if that had something to do with celiac like the old wheat icon or if it was some default icon that came with the board update? Thank you for all...
  11. Wow--I searched under members for bette326 and nothing came up. I'd contact admin about it; he's the only one that can do anything about it: Open Original Shared Link -celiac3270
  12. Make her mad? Good catch, Karen! (despite brain fog about posting linK )
  13. I really don't know how to milk a goat--seriously, I'm a New Yorker, lol. Thank you to everyone--particularly Scott--he does so much more work than us moderators pinning topics--and all the people who post here
  14. I just got this update e-mail from the Celiac Center (at Columbia). Based on this, I kind of inferred he did, lol
  15. Mystery Diagnosis Like Mother, Like Son a one hour episode, featuring Dr. Green and his patient Eamon Murphy and family, will be on the Discovery Health Channel, Sunday, November 27, 8:00 pm. The Discovery Health Channel varies based on your geographic location. For NYC, the channel is 115. You may want to check with your local cable provider...
  16. You need to go to change AVATAR settings--that's the pic that shows up next to your posts. Nobody has a personal pic--that's a different feature that's disabled.
  17. Go to a GI at Columbia Presbyterian; I also live in NYC--they have a Celiac Center.
  18. Yes--I've heard good things about that book (Personal touch on... Celiac Disease) but haven't actually read it. Not trying to resurrect the Jax debate--sorry--just wanted to defend Danna Korn cause I think she's pretty reliable.
  19. No--Pepsi was just listing corn gluten which is not harmful to celiacs. By the way, all Pepsi softdrinks are gluten-free (look at the site Q & A response for gluten).
  20. Right--if it's not pinned, it goes to one of the back few pages of the forum until a moderator comes and pins it. If you need to see it and it isn't yet pinned, either go there, or go to view new posts.
  21. I don't know--it's certainly not a flawless system. I tend to see all the posts within the past 24 hours... and if they're really new they reflect it with the bright icon, if I've read them, they're the dim icon.
  22. Danna Korn says she's trying to avoid using specific product names. And she incorporates numerous disclaimers. And with regards to the FritoLay thing--about 1/2 of celiacs look upon FritoLay suspiciously, suspecting contamination. I personally don't, but if she warns against FritoLay, that's fine cause so do so many others. NOW, Danna does not make long...
  23. Jessica, I wasn't here for the old board, but I joined shortly after (maybe two months after?) the formation of the "new" board. Absolutely a huge thank you to Scott!!!
  24. Kraft is wonderful. I would NEVER boycott Kraft: 1) They do in fact label all gluten. 2) They're a huge company, so it's easy to find their products--so if they're celiac-friendly, that's fantastic. 3) They don't give you lists and answers because they become outdated. Just look at the label every time and you'll know. Distilled vinegar is widely...
