I can't believe it! Today, I went down to Maggie Moo's and filled out an application. Filled it out, got asked a few question and WHAM! I got hired! My orientation is this Tuesday 4-6 and training is Wednesday 4-9 and then the store opens Thursday! God really blessed me today!

I'm glad I get to work at an ice cream palor. I know there's still a lot of gluten around, but, it beats working where it's greasy and stuff. Those Wilton cake decoration class paid off!

Aww that's so awesome!! That's going to be fun!

I wish I could get a job, but being allergic to gluten, dairy, eggs and sensitive to oils...I dont know how getting a job would work for me :( LoL I would starve!

That's so awesome though. Do you think you'll be able to actually eat some of what you're selling? LoL. Even if you can't, that sounds like a fun job!

Hey that's awesome! Congrats!

This summer I'm gonna be working in the little health food store where I get my gluten free food from. I probably won't get paid that much but the owners of the store really want me to work there so I can help them with their celiac customers, since neither of the owners is actually celiac.

Good for you! A health food store would be an ideal place to work :lol: But I love Ice Cream too, Ash, is that ice cream gluten free?

Thanks guys! I'm so excited.

Run_4_Jesus: I'm glad you're gonna get to work at the health store! That's probably the safest place for Celiacs like us to work.

Kassie: That's great! I'm hoping it'll be the same for me once I start working there.

Peacenlove_girl17: I hate that your allergies are preventing you from getting a job. I have a friend that has a lot of those allergies too. Perhaps maybe you can get a job at non-food store?

For all who asked about the ice cream: I believe all the ice creams are gluten-free expect for the 'Better Batter' and 'Chocolate Better Batter.' Here's the link for the Allergens in their ice cream, the list is at the bottom of the page. They also have shakes. Plus, they have those gluteny cakes and malts too...

There is one thing I question: What in the world is Annatto?

Annatto is a coloring used in food and other products. It is derived from the seed pod of a tree. It is the color most commonly used to make cheese cheddar yellow (its natural color is white). It is common in other cheeses as well. It is gluten-free.

Thanks so much for the info, Peter! You made my day :) ---I was afraid that I wasn't going to be able to eat any of the ice cream!

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

      By Raquel2021 · Posted

      Yes stress can .make the pain worse. That being said it is taking years for my body to heal. I am not able to eat out as 98 % of restaurants do not know how to cook for celiacs.  I only eat out on special occasions. Any time I eat gluten I feel there is a tourch going through my digestive system specifically in the area you have mentioned.  Like where the deudenal is . I am very sensitive to cross contamination so any small amount of gluten makes me sick.

      Gluten free diet - are these symptoms normal?

      By trents · Posted

      @Ems10, celiac diagnosis normally involves two steps. The first one is serum antibody testing which you may have already have had done and are waiting on the results. The second step involves and endoscopy (aka, gastroscopy) with biopsy of the small bowel lining. This second step is typically ordered if one or more antibody tests were positive, is a confirmation of the serum antibody testing and is considered the gold standard diagnostic test for celiac disease. Now hear this, you should not be eating gluten free weeks or months in advance of either kind of testing. Prematurely going on a gluten free diet can and will sabotage the results of the endoscopy/biopsy should you get a referral to a GI doc who would want to do that. Eliminating gluten from the diet causes causes inflammation to subside which allows the small bowel ling to heal such that the damage they would be looking for is no longer there.

      Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      It might make sense for you to find out if they've run a celiac disease test on you, and if not, consider planning for it.

      Thanks for your reply! I’m really not too sure, the doctor just took a few tubes of blood & that’s all I know 🥹
