Toaster Bags

We're going away in a couple weeks and I had heard, a while back, that someone makes toaster bags that let you put gluten free food in a regular toaster. The hotel we're staying at has a continental breakfast and I figure, if I can find the bags, I can bring along frozen pancakes or waffles or something and use the toaster bags and my daughter can have a normal breakfast (cereal's not an easy option either as she can't have dairy and so I'd have to bring along some rice milk). I would prefer not to have to bring along a toaster. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Where can I find them? Thanks!

Thanks for the replies!

Mamaw - I'll try Linens and Things today - there's one nearby. I've waited so long I don't think I have time to order them online and have them to get to me in time. Hopefully they'll have them. Also, thank you so much for the recipes! Haven't tried them yet but I will soon...

I'd appreciate knowing if you actaully find these for purchase in a retail store. I just heard about these toasta bags today and they would be fantastic for hotel traveling with the continental breakfasts. Hope I can find some in the next 2 days. I've got a BBB & LnT nearby and will try that..

Thanks Mamaw for the offer to send them! I went to Linens and Things and Bed, Bath and Beyond today and didn't see them. I ordered them, though, at www.nowonsale.com. I think it was $9. for 2 reusable bags - it was the least expensive place I could find them as they don't charge shipping and they're located, I think, in NY so it should get to me by the time I leave next weekend. Mamaw - I still haven't tried the recipes yet but thanks for sending them and, hopefully, I'll get around to baking this weekend.

I stopped in LnT and BBB too. I actually mentioned to the employeee at LnT I was looking for it so I wouldn't get wheat contamination when travelling and she totally knew all about Gluten sensitivity...she had a relative that needed to be gluten-free.

What I ordered was $9.99 - free shipping - 2 bags, 100 uses each. I thought it was a bit pricey - I guess I was feeling a bit pressured with time...if it makes life easier for my daughter (and me, I guess, since I'm the one worrying about it and packing), then I guess I felt it was worth it. If I had seen your offer before I bought it, I'm sure I would have taken you up on it. Thanks again - I really do appreciate it.

I thought these toaster bags were pretty cool & then I told my boyfriend, and he said, "why don't you just use aluminum foil?" Can we do that?

I don't think I would put foil in my toaster...

      Gluten Ataxia and Malabsorption

      By Soleihey · Posted

      I have been on supplementation for almost 11 months with no deficiencies showing up on blood work. So was just hoping to hear someone else’s story where it took longer to heal.

      Here’s the answer from the company 😊   Hi Emily,    Thank you for reaching out to us! We can confirm the Organic Protein + 50 Superfoods Powder is gluten free. The organic barley and wheatgrasses we use are harvested prior to jointing, before the grain forms and any gluten protein is present. Rest assured appropriate measures are taken to ensure our gluten free products comply with the FDA final rule to be labeled as gluten free, as claimed on the side-panel label. Our suppliers are required to verify each ingredient and in order to ensure that our gluten free products comply with the FDA requirements, our manufacturing facilities use the ELISA test method to confirm gluten levels are less than the standard limit of <20 ppm.    If you have allergy concerns about consuming the grasses, we recommend consulting further with your healthcare provider. I hope this information helps! Please let us know if you have other questions.

      Postponing seeking a diagnosis?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @kim-d! Recently revised guidelines or the "gluten challenge" recommends the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten for at least two weeks up until the day of the antibody test blood draw. 10g of gluten is the amount found in about 4-6 slices of wheat bread. IMO, I would wait until you have time to do it right so as to remove all doubt as to whether or not your gluten consumption was adequate for long enough to ensure valid testing. In the meantime, focus on removing gluten from your diet and see how your symptoms improve (or not) as one piece of the diagnostic puzzle.

      Postponing seeking a diagnosis?

      By kim-d · Posted

      Hello. I'm a 22 year old college student and I've had constant stomach problems since I was 14. Recently I noticed that my problems get worse when I eat more wheat. I tried to follow a gluten free diet, which didn't end up entirely gluten free, but I still had reduced my gluten consumption very much, and I felt a lot better. I also have fatigue, inability to gain any weight, iron deficiency, possible vitamin deficiencies, really bad memory and brain fog that increases by time, unexplainable muscle aches and tachycardia which all can possibly explained by celiac/NCGS.  I wasn't able to continue a completely gluten free diet as I am eating from my school and dorm's cafeteria and almost all food there have gluten so I was going very hungry. They do offer a gluten free menu with a report though. So I decided I should try getting a diagnosis if I can, especially after reading how it was much harder to do gluten challenge after quitting gluten for a while. I was able to get an appointment for next week, and started eating around 150gr of bread per day to be sure.  First 24 hours I didn't feel any worse so I was starting to doubt myself, but then bloating hit hard. It wasn't anything unbearable, but the problem is I have finals soon and I'm now realizing this is a really bad time to do this. I can't begin studying from pain distracting me. I'm thinking of cancelling the appointment and eat low gluten until exams are over.  I worry about one thing. Before I went low gluten, I was eating a lot of bread already for over a month, which is what clued me into gluten, and I only went low gluten for around 10 days before going high gluten again. I wasn't that worried about a false negative. But if I eat low gluten until my exams are over, it means over a month of low gluten, and I would need a lot more time eating high gluten later to get a correct result.  I'm not sure which one should I do, bear it until my appointment or cancel it and try again when I'm free later. And If I choose the second one, how long would I need to do the gluten challenge for a blood test?
