    I am super-sensitive and have been drinking Hornsby's cider on occasion for about the last year and a half and have never had any problems. I do like Woodchucks better, but have always been grateful for the Hornsby's when they were all that was available, especially if it's the amber. The Ace cider I had in Florida this February was incredible! Margaret

    You'll be fine. We'll share a phyllo recipe or two. Margaret

    Hi, I'm a former gluteny oven and bread-machine (2 Sunbeams) baker and I'm now a gluten-free oven and Zo bread-machine baker. It was a step spending that extra, but I'll never go back. And it makes all kinds of other stuff, too.

    Let them take you to the eating disorder unit at the hospital. Let them call it whatever they want. Someone there will surely know about food allergies and perhaps beyond and hopefully that will open the door that you need. Most of us have been called crazy before. {{hugs}} Margaret

    Yay! and we're heading that way for the 4th. Thanks for the reminder! I stopped by Anello's in Wells last summer, but they were closed. Peered through the window and haven't stopped thinking of lemon bars since. Margaret

    Many good suggestions have been given, although it also depends entirely on how you hike. Do you carry a stove, need to carry in your own water, etc? I have and enjoy Lipsmackin' Backpackin' by Tim and Christine Connors and also its vegetarian counterpart because it gives you a basic template for what most hikers are carrying and you can substitute fairly...

    It sometimes seems like healthy food = whole wheat and its variations and that is always a bit of a hurdle. Breakfast was always the hardest thing for me. If you are used to eating whole grains, there are plenty and in ever-increasing shapes and ingredients. If you eat meat, it is easier, if not, it's entirely possible to do a vegan diet. The easiest...

    I dose up on vitamin B complex. It makes me smell like a cereal box after about two weeks and the bugs hate it. I also use a combination of lavender, eucalyptus and citrus essential oils. Apparently, just about any combination will work. Open Original Shared Link Margaret

    I'm pretty sure that denaturing gluten is a reversible process up to a certain temperature. This article looks like it might help, if you want to give it a go: Open Original Shared Link I'm not sure if you have to denature both the gliadin and the glutenin, though...this article seems to indicate that neither really denatures completely. Open Original...

    It seems that life was a little easier regarding sushi restaurants just a decade or so ago, and this may be more of a regional thing, but's it's definitely at both ends of the east coast here in the states. Now when I see sushi on the menu, it isn't always a Japanese restaurant that I'm sitting in. This makes for some disasters, but also for some serendipity...

    I am from a potato processing area, worked at McDonald's in my youth and am supersensitive and I'll eat the fries once in a while if I'm on the road and jonesin' something hot, crispy and fresh. I've never been glutened from them. I agree that they aren't coated in the sense of your usual coated fry. Hi Larry! Margaret

    Awesome, have him run the full celiac panel, if you can. I had only the anti-gliadin blood test and an endoscopy that was too late. Keep in mind that there are false negatives. That's what I was experiencing before I went completely gluten-free. Margaret

    (Company Name Removed - They Spammed This Forum and are Banned) Yikesaroidy, sorry about that!

    Oops, (Company Name Removed - They Spammed This Forum and are Banned) always treats me righteously and for pointers, just soak them in room-temperature water until pliable, which isn't too long. There are tons of recipes on the net for them, most involve fresh vegetables and basil, but you can put just about anything inside, then wrap like a burrito. Be...

    I use the Banh Trang Que Huong Asian Boy (E B Q) Galettes de Riz Spring Roll Skin. from B.C.N. Trading Co. with Dac Biet Mong also on the label, product of Vietnam (I could go on...), they look similar to this and are fun to use: http://www.gourmetsleuth.com/images/springrollwrapper.webp I haven't come across any with gluten in them yet.

    Hi and welcome! Yes, it's entirely possible that you have allergies and celiac, or something else that's causing this. I have never had nausea, have extreme allergies and have never been tested conclusively for the celiac, but prior to going gluten-free, I had that kind of pattern, perhaps in part because I was gluten-light for eight years. Now that I...

    Well, I did start out as a Salton girl in the '70's and those work well, too. Honestly, I got the tea/tisane method from a friend who told me about it only in the briefest of terms. In an Alice Waters recipe that I make for lavender ice cream, she steeps it after it's come to its highest heat, so that's what I do for the yogurt. Now I've got to try...

    I use Madhur Jaffrey's method and just put it in a bowl wrapped in a bathtowel in an unlit oven overnight. Works just fine. Also, if you get into it, try using tea bags/balls in the milk to flavor it. Yum. Missy's Mom, your yogurt should be just fine. It was developed for travel in the desert. Margaret

    Celiacs v. the pharmaceutical lobbyists Should be fun!

    If you find yourself staring at something and actually calculating the probability of it being gluten-free, you've already gone too far. STEP AWAY FROM THE FOOD.

    Never cheated [shudder], but dream of cheat days often. I channel it into making what I'm dreaming of, since I love to cook. I think that's a pretty cool menu that you've got there and sometimes it's just good for the soul to eat some fast food once in a while. The pizza is so easy to make gluten-free that it shouldn't even be part of a cheat day, it should...

    In the great battle of dietary restrictions, your child won. She may not be able to understand it now, but when she's older she'll understand that when faced with the choice of spiritual excision, a glutening or just trying to make do the best that she was able, she did the right thing and when she was just a little whipper-snapper! Of course she was upset...

    Are you in a household that can be completely gluten-free? This is important, because you can weed out a whole lot of variables there. And, I guess, when I say the above, I mean no other humans consuming gluten, pets eating (any) gluten kibble/wet foods only with your utmost mindfulness and maybe some appliances and pots and pans kicking around from the...
