We have been here in texas now for 2 weeks. We have been having a hard time finding some good food for Tim. I finally found a whole foods market down town. I am SO happy. We went yesterday and spent SO much! But he needs it. We even found the pretzels by ener-g that he loves so much. That is great news for a 20 month old!

My hubby is being tested this week for celiac. Preliminary tests are pointing toward positive. We shall see!

Hi Taffy

I don't know where in TX you live but there is a gluten-free bakery in Dallas called Delicious-N-Fit a Gluten Free Bakery and here Their website with more gluten-free bakerys also Open Original Shared Link . I live in OK and would love to go and see it. It is about a 3 hr drive and with the gas prices I think it would cost a arm and leg to get there. :o<_< Please tell me if you go so I can drool ;) . I heard that it is real good stuff there. I lived in TX most of my life and know dallas very well and houston too. hope you like TX.

Wow, I can imagine how joyful you were. We live in AZ, but just came home from Celiac camp in TX this summer. The camp was called "The great gluten escape" It was paradise, my son and I loved it and will be back next year. It is supported in part by the Dallas R.O.C.K. group. There was a bunch of wonderful ladies there that live in that area and have a support group and a great website that might help you. It is Open Original Shared Link

Hope that might help out for in the future,

Julie

P.S. Enjoy the pretzels they are a favorite of mine too.

      Royal Caribbean Only, Please

      Great tips, Deb. Thanks.  What a pity that they no longer mark items as gluten-free. And it is even more of a shame that you must bring protein bars instead of the crew helping you with your needs. Are you planning on sailing Royal again?

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I've not heard of any issues with Primal Kitchen, but it certainly would be worth not using the brand for a while to see if this helps. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful:

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you are super sensitive you may want to look for only Certified Gluten-Free Products, as @trents mentioned.

      Gluten free/ non dairy , low calorie pudding

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm not sure about low calorie, as puddings are typically a dessert, but we do have this category: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/gluten-free-dessert-recipes-pastries-cakes-cookies-etc/gluten-free-pudding-recipes/ This one might work if you cut back on the sugar:

      Royal Caribbean Only, Please

      We are off next week on our 9th RCCL cruise since our diagnoses.  I send an email to special_needs@rccl.com before every cruise letting them know that I am both dairy and gluten free and my husband is gluten free.   Unfortunately, with the new menus they introduced in 2023, they removed the gluten-free designation from each item on the menu.  Instead of having a dedicated person take gluten-free orders, it now falls to your regular wait staff.  Some have been great and some not so good.  We had a great cruise in May and hit it off with our head waiter.  She went the extra mile and ordered gluten free desserts that were not on the menu.  My problem arises from other food allergies.  I am allergic to dairy, beef, and several types of fish.  On those days my husband is a happy camper with a steak or salmon, veggies and a baked potato.  I end up not getting enough protein, so I bring protein bars.  I also bring snacks for the room. As long as the food is commercially prepared and unopened, you can bring it. Often the only dessert choices that are gluten free contain dairy, so I am out of luck.  But, if you are just gluten free, they have plenty of choices.  See the head chef in the Windjammer buffet and he will give you a tour of the gluten-free choices.  They usually have 2 gluten free desserts out at lunch and they are labeled gluten free. We have found that it works best to have assigned dining rather than anytime.  That way the waiters learn from the get go what our needs are, and we don't have to explain ourselves every night.  We also get a private table for 2.  I frankly got sick and tired of tablemates telling me a little bit of gluten would not hurt me.
