Wanted to post a few things about some awesome Gluten Free / Caesin Free foods I found around Austin. I'm pretty excited about them because its so hard to find somewhere that will cater to food allergies. So if you're ever in Austin these are some GREAT places!

-This place has the largest selection of beer in Texas. Seriously. They also have a small selection of gluten-free beer from time to time. They always have Gluten Free Cider in stock, though, and mead, so I have options when I go there. It's awesome for some groceries too ( cheese, hummus, chips, instant soups; mostly snack type foods ). They carry wine, mead, cider, sherry and bubbly too. It's a mom & pop store since 1987 and their son has a store right next door with other types of alcohol available.

Whip In is now serving Indian Food in take away containers. Currently they are awaiting their permit to serve alcohol and wine by the glass with dinner, but for now you can nuke it at home! Their first menu is labeled "June 2008" so maybe it will change with the months or seasons, which would be nice. They also cater to vegan and vegetarian crowds. I was able to eat the vegan options with no reactions, so I was happy. Thomas ate with me and he felt it was great as well.

My only complaint was the stew that is on their menu is not very stew-ish. It was served with rice, like the other dishes, but it didn't have liquid in it. I know stew is thicker than soup, but there was no juice or whatever. It was still very good. Plus side? The veggies weren't soggy at all! Tasted fresh.

-Didn't call before we went (which I should do w/ allergies) but they were still just as catering to our group. We ordered a vegetarian sampler plate called Atakelt Beyaynetu which is all their vegetarian dishes. Everything there is served group style, so it makes for great date food or good for families and friends.

What I really like about this place is they use spices differently than we do. Cinnamon is a perfect example. We use this on toast, in pies, cereal - mostly sweet applications. They made Fasolia Wott

      I love popcorn but it doesn't love me.  Right now my gut hurts and I am bloated and passing gas.  Am I just super sensitive. I thought popcorn was gluten free 🤔

      Welcome to the forum, @marinke! "Type 1a diabetes (DM1) is associated with an increased risk of celiac disease (celiac disease) (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/35/10/2083/38503/IgA-Anti-transglutaminase-Autoantibodies-at-Type-1 "The prevalence of celiac disease (celiac disease) in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is 5.1%, and it is often asymptomatic (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/48/2/e13/157637/Diagnostic-Outcomes-of-Elevated-Transglutaminase So, this is 5x the rate found in the general population.

      Hi James47, You are less than 2 years into your recovery from Celiacs.  Tell us more about the problems you are having. Do you just want to get rid of belly fat or are you still having symptoms like gas and bloating.    For symptoms you may need to change your diet and take various supplements that you cannot adsorb from the foods you eat because of the damage caused by the autoimmune reaction in your small intestine.

      My daughter (4 years old) has type 1 diabetes since she was 1. Therefore, every year a screening is done. We live in the Netherlands. Every year the screening was fine. This year here ttg is positive, 14, >7 is positive. IGA was in range. Could the diabetes cause this positive result? Or the fact that she was sick the weeks before the brood test?

      @DayaInTheSun what were the shortness of breath symptoms for you ? And did they come on all of a sudden or was it a gradual increase in said symptoms?
