I completely agree with the other posts! If you can't eat it, don't cook it!

Our house has 2 toasters, one is gluten-free, the other isnt. Hubby toasts all the bread products he likes and I do the same with my gluten free breads. Outside of bread issues, I only cook with safe grains. He eats everything I make and still thinks I'm the best cook around.

We have no wheat flour or any other offending grains around outside the bread(s) in our pantry. If he wants a donut, cookies, or other gluten containing food he gets it for himself. Other than that, I have to share my creations because they are so yummy and he's not afraid of them anymore.

I have converted a few of my family recipes and adopted new ones. Pasta meals are so easy with Tinkyada and I've served my lasagna to many people with groans of delight. What they don't know wont hurt them :). I've breaded shrimp, made flaky pie crusts and wonderful cakes. Get a good cookbook and learn how to use the alternative flours and your life will be much easier. I like 125 Best Gluten-Free Recies by Washburn and Butt.

My husband is now my biggest cheerleader because he knows how much I suffered. He makes sure my In-Laws understand and protects me from gluten by scrutinizing every label. Get your hubby on your side and you'll never regret it. Just find something that he loves that is gluten free and you'll fine.

      gluten-free and continued upper left side pain after drinking wine

      By PlanetJanet · Posted

      After looking at Google images, the spleen is on the upper left abdomen, too!  An organ, part of the lymphatic system for immune function.  A filter.  Wonder how this relates to gluten sensitivity?

      Hello, everyone, This upper left side pain is interesting to me.  I have this same pain almost all the time.  Started 2009 when I got diverticulitis for the first time.  Then had left ovarian cyst removed and a diagnosis of endometriosis all over inside.  Been attempting gluten-free since 2018.  It's not perfect, but still have that left sided pain.  Like up under the rib cage.  I believe the pancreas head is on that side, so I often wonder if I have a tumor or something there.  But it could also be an endometriosis adhesion in my belly.  I never got scraped.

      Canned tomato sauce, ricotta?

      By DMCeliac · Posted

      One of my biggest issues is when a brand chooses to label one item gluten free, but not another. Why is Hunt's diced tomatoes labeled gluten free, but not the paste or sauce? I would have assumed they were all gluten-free, but why label one and not the others? It makes me suspicious.

      Most of these items would be naturally gluten-free, with very little chance of cross contamination, thus they don't typically label them as gluten-free. If wheat is a potential allergen large companies disclose this in the ingredients as "Allergens: wheat."
