    I've never, ever found a fresh or raw chicken that isn't gluten-free and I've eaten Holly Farms numerous times. I know it's checked out gluten-free in the past. Tyson says this about their chicken, although it doesn't specifically list Holly Farms. I'd eat it. INGREDIENTS: Boneless, skinless chicken breast strips w/ rib meat Contains Up to 15% natural...

    I've NEVER seen American cheese or processed cheese food with gluten. richard

    eeyorelvr, you need to do a little research into how things are absorbed through the skin. If you could absorb anything and everything, how come you don't swell up and burst from all that water seeping through you when you swim? Only topical benadryl is absorbed through the skin. Topical benadryl is specifically engineered to go through your skin barrier...

    Three hours for me if it's a serious glutening. richard

    Blue cheese has pretty much universally been declared safe. I've never had a problem with it. Even the very few blue cheeses that still have a bread starter for the culture do not have a measurable amount of gluten. richard

    I'll join Lisa in saying that in more than 10 years of eating gluten-free I've NEVER found a cheese "coated" or "dusted" with flour. In my mind, that one qualifies as a celiac urban myth. richard

    Yep, just read the ingredients. The Easter ones, at least the ones I saw, seemed to be fine. richard

    Bacterial overgrowth is not uncommon. I've heard of celiac doctors who automatically put celiac patients on probiotics. richard

    Some tea has barley but most is safe. richard

    If your weight is OK and most else seems all right, why are you so concerned about snacking? Some people need to eat multiple small "meals" daily. richard

    Doesn't sound anything at all like the DH I had, except the itching. But then this is the problem with trying to diagnose over the Internet. richard

    Good Humor is a Unilever company and Unilever will clearly list any gluten. This ice cream is gluten-free. "Is the mounds bar gluten free Agent: We recommend consumers read the label each time before buying our product. If gluten is present, it is clearly listed in plain language on the ingredient label (i.e., wheat flour, rye, barley, oats, and...

    I've had the bugs in non-imported flours, so I wouldn't blame it just on imported ones. FWIW, I don't seem to react noticeably to small amounts of CC but I most certainly do react to any substantial amount of gluten, and I've yet to ever have a problem with a flour I bought at an Asian market. richard

    And please be aware that anything before living_free's post on this thread is nearly three years old. richard

    As the original poster sort of hinted, there's really no reason at all to be looking for a culprit here and I certainly wouldn't be grilling the hosts based on her "reaction." desperateforhealth ate too much one day, then didn't eat enough the next day, and maybe had a virus on top of that. It's really pretty much impossible to pinpoint anything given that...

    I have nothing to do with setting this up but I got notice from a local restaurant that there will be a first-ever (for the Roanoke, Va., area) gluten-free expo featuring local businesses and restaurants that offer gluten-free food or products. The expo will be at Tanglewood Mall from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. I have no idea how many businesses will be represented...

    I do not worry about coffee in the least. richard

    Usually these types of stories -- especially wheat in cheese stories -- turn out to be untrue, but of course I wouldn't eat it until we hear from OG.

    love, you aren't in Blacksburg, Va., are you? THERE"S A china Inn here (although I'm sure there are many). richard

    If the poster doesn't have a problem with MSG, why should she/he be watching out for it? richard

    Most people who have celiac eat food that has either that same warning or that has been processed on the same lines. I wouldn't worry. richard
  23. lovegrov
    Whether or not a strict gluten-free diet is sufficient depends entirely on the individual. It was all I needed (and I was EXTREMELY ill), but others discover they have other intolerances, such as dairy. I also didn't need bland foods. However, there's no question that you're best off with basic unprocessed food to start off with. richard

    "Attract" gluten during the curing process? What the heck does that mean? Never heard of it. If you know of sausages with "fillers" that contain gluten, please post them on here. I've never found one. If you know of a turkey that's injected with anything containing gluten to "plump" them up, please post the brand here. I've never found one. richard

    Coffee is just simply not a major concern for CC. richard
