Many thanks! I'll look into that site!

I'm traveling to the St. Paul, Minnesota area, and am wondering if anyone has any experience in this area. Thanks!

That was very kind of her. When going to a wedding (or similar event) I always assume there will be nothing for me to eat, so I always 1. eat before I get there 2. keep a snickers bar in my pocket to tide me over if I get hungry. Not exactly gourmet, but assuming that from the start allows me to enjoy the event without stressing about food.

I hope you come around and start feeling better soon. On a semi-related note: If you litreally lost your husband over you needing to go gluten-free, you lost nothing but dead weight. You deserve better than that.

I've been getting excima between my eyebrows and around that general area for the last few months. I don't know why. Luckily it is easy to manage, though I'd like to know the source! I'll need to keep a log of what I eat and see when it flares up.

What's below is taken from the Star Tribune. If you possibly can, let's get out there and support this woman! "Debbie Johnson, owner of the new Golden Chalice Restaurant & Gallery (7810 Market Blvd., Chanhassen, 952-934-4101), is certainly setting herself apart from her competition. "To the best of my knowledge, this is the world's first 100 percent...

Kemps ice creams are gluten-free, unless they contain an obvious additive (i.e. cookie dough, brownie, grahm cracker, etc.).

Does anyone know of a good fiber supplement that's gluten-free? I just started taking a medication that is causing some moderate C, and since I've never had the problem before I'm completely unaware. Thanks!

The hormel 'Natural Choice' meats (referenced above) are excellent. They come in ham, smoked ham, honey ham, smoked turkey, regular turkey, honey turkey. They're about $3 or $4 for about a 12 oz package (I'm guessing here -- don't remember exactly). And they actually say "GLUTEN FREE" on the package. Hormel is pretty good this way. I sent them a letter...

The first celiac conference I went to, the thing I was most excited about wasn't the educational value -- I was excited to physically see other people (outside immediate family) with celiac disease. There was something SO comforting about being in a room full of human beings who go through the same things as me every day. I just wanted to hug everybody...

If you know who Kid Rock is, he used to have a 'sidekick' rapper named Joe C, who was often refered to as a 'midget' (their words, not mine). He would always correct people and say "I'm not a midget, I have Celiac Disease." He apparently had it bad/long enought that his growth was permanently stunted. Also, it's listed as his cause of death -- I believe...

Sorry to hear that. Hope you start feeling better soon.

Too funny! That reminded me of this: Open Original Shared Link I didn't order one, but I thought it was pretty funny. I'd imagine I'll get it for my birthday from my DH.

On the Burger King website (Open Original Shared Link) it lists their fries as not containing wheat, and states that dedicated fryers are used for fries, so you bring up an excellent point: Always check with the individual resturant! They may not follow procedure as they should! Thanks for pointing that out.

I think I may have posted this somewhere else before, but Burger King uses dedicated fryers and says their fries are gluten-free. But cross contamination seems to be a big issue at our local resturant, as the chicken nugget 'holding bin' is right next to the fry bin. Other locations may possibly be set up differently.
