  1. I found a couple of articles mentioning the possibility of this, but not a single one names any company that doing it or points to where any tests have shown it happening. Sounds like needless worrying. If you're still paranoid about it, stick to name brands or grind your own, which tastes better anyway. richard
  2. If you're not super sensitive then there's no way you'd have had an anaphylactic reaction, which as Peter mentions is an allergic reaction anyway. I eat Kroger baked chicken nearly every week for lunch and have never had an obvious reaction to it. And I DO have an obvious reaction (throwing up) to gluten. richard
  3. My experience with "anti-flaking agents" is that wheat is not used because of the way it would alter flavor. Usually it's cellulose. richard
  4. In more than 12 years of being gluten-free, I've never been able to attribute a glutening to meds. richard
  5. I've taught my closest family members and even a couple of friends enough about CC so that I can eat with them. richard
  6. Here's another email I've received. It doesn't make complete sense to me, but... "I spoke with Kraft yesterday and they explained what happened with their Good Seasons Italian - dry packet mix. Seems like one of their major manufacturing facilities had wheat on the production line and it wasn't cleaned. That's why thousands of boxes had to be...
  7. Sorry if this has already been posted, but I'm absolutely stunned. I saw a message on another board today claiming that Good Seasons Italian Dressing dry mix, which I've used since I was a kid and love, now has wheat. I went by the store and sure enough, Kraft has added soy sauce with wheat to the mix. The box of packets I bought a couple of months ago does...
  8. Never had a problems with OBS. richard
  9. Make sure those fries are done in a dedicated fryer. They aren't at Hardees, which is pretty much the same as Carl's. richard
  10. High praises for the Red Robin in Roanoke, Va., as well. richard
  11. Similar to gluten reaction. Can't imagine it's something you'll get over. In fact, it might get worse. richard
  12. And if all else fails and not eating gluten solves your problems, well, I think you know the rest. richard
  13. Hellman's mayo is most definitely, without question gluten free. In fact, I've never heard of a mayo in the U.S. that isn't gluten-free. richard
  14. I don't care how many hours your husband works (40 is no big deal), he MUST take over things like shopping and making food until you get better. Because you won't get better until you eat right. And on your budget forget about Whole Foods or specialty gluten-free foods. Just eat the stuff that's naturally gluten-free. I was as bad off physically or worse...
  15. Sleep apnea? Do you exercise? richard
  16. I can remember way back when these guys were struggling just to get the beer made at a commercial level and then to get it distributed. Took some perseverance. richard
  17. IMO, if the manufacturer is actually listing allergens and wheat isn't there, it's going to be safe. richard
  18. I've always liked the example of water. If water could pass through the skin barrier, we'd all drown.
  19. It must be getting more mainstream: Open Original Shared Link
  20. Some places are netter than others, but I work at a large university and I can't imagine trying to eat every meal in the dining halls. Even with items that are supposed to be gluten-free, not only do you have to worry about CC, but sometimes they run out of an ingredient and have to make an adjustment mid-meal. A smaller place that's willing to work with...
  21. You do know, don't you, that Kinnikinnick is pretty much as gluten free and CC free as any place like this can possibly be? At one time -- and this still might be true -- workers weren't even allowed to bring anything for lunch that wasn't gluten-free. richard
  22. "I keep finding beatles in my apartment. Yes, beatles." Turn off your iPod or stereo. Sorry, couldn't resist.
  23. Doesn't look like mine did. richard
  24. Some might see this as heresy, but I can understand somebody not wanting to change their stuffing/dressing recipe to gluten free. IMO, it doesn't taste the same and if you have a recipe that everybody already likes, different is not necessarily good. Thanksgiving food is comfort food. Several years ago I tried making the oyster stuffing recipe I loved with...
  25. Note that most of the info on this thread is two years old. Maybe a mod could start a new thread? richard
