Another question.... What about dextrin and dextrose? I have been advoiding these items with the fear that they are from wheat and maybe also rice. Are these from corn too if done in the US?

Is it always from corn if in the US? Could it ever be from rice?

I live in Boerne and I will check our Dr. Pepper. I just checked and it says on the cans: HFCS. What size do you buy? I also so like the flavor of the Mexican Coke since it does taste like the Coke we used to drink when we were younger. It just get frustrating that every drink out there seems to have HFCS. I just looked at Arizona Lemon Tea, it has it too...

Thanks, I'll have to look for that. I have never really thought about looking for special colas before but now... I hope they carry it at Sun Harvest, it's only 30 miles away verses 50 for Whole Foods. Thanks Have a great day! LyndaK

I work at a grocery store and a lot of people are asking for the Coke made in Mexico since it is still made with sugar cane syrup rather than high frutose corn syrup. The Zoe 8 diet talks about how the HFCS is 10 times harsher on your body than regular sugar syrup is to digest. So my question is, is the carmel color in Coke from Mexico (since it is not made...

Thanks so much! I will go buy some today!

I love cinnamon gum but recently just thought that maybe I should look into which is safe for me. Is any gum safe? I am only interested in cinnamon gum since peppermint/ wintergreen/ etc. all make my tummy feel weird. Thanks Have a great day! LyndaK

I thought Oreida Fries were safe but then I bought the 5# family bag (to save money). I then got sick then I remembered something about bag size makes a difference. Is this true?

I'm so glad to hear that other people use pressure cookers. I am 37 and no one my age uses one. I grew up using one. I love it. I use mine for sloppy joes, spaghetti, stew, swiss steak, beef strognoff, corn on cob, green beans to name a few. If you are interested, let me know for any of the recipes. Have a good day!! LyndaK

I'm putting my question here since it relates to flour. I just received as gifts the Dummy gluten-free book and the incredible edible for kids book. Most recipes in these call for rice flour. Can I subsititue another flour or starch for the rice flour? I am allergic to rice and it is hard to find recipes or mixes that have no rice. What is the ratio if any...

I have to say that I really enjoy PF's. I had the lettuce wraps but noticed that the gluten-free sauce has rice wine (or vinegar) in it so I had the waiter take my web site printed menu to the chef and asked if it could be made without the rice (I'm allgeric to rice). And they did!! I did get sick but I believe I forgot to ask if the gluten-free soy sauce...

Has anyone eaten at Mamacita's? I tried to find a web site for them but no luck? Thanks Have a good day! LyndaK

I have yet to find a gluten-free bread that does not contain rice flour- either frozen or a mix. Maybe the Cebe mix doen't have rice. I'll have to check next time I head to Sun Harvest. Is there such a bread out there that is gluten-free and rice free? Have a good day! LyndaK

Thank you so much for finding out that it is from corn. I didn't know what I was going to do if I had to quit eating M&M's. Yeah!!!! Have a good day! LyndaK

Thank you for letting me know that you like her book. I am making the coffee cake as I write. I did notice that the book is from 2000 or 2001. But the main thing still is that all the ingredients are simple items and no rice flour. The info I read about is in the front where she writes about the different ingredients and utensils. Have a good day... ...
