Not sure if these have been there all along, but I've just noticed them. lol.. They're "cooked brown rice bowls", ingredients "organic brown rice, water". I bought them initially to take for lunches, or when we have church events, etc. But last night I was in a hurry for dinner and I made my home made "hamburger helper" for the family -- cooked noodles mixed with cooked ground beef and spaghetti sauce. (just like hamburger helper without all the artificial ingredients and sodium). Before I put the noodles in the sauce I scooped out some sauce/meat for myself. I put it on some of this brown rice and it was SO yummy! The rice is very chewy so it was closer to that pasta consistency. I may just start using this rice as a pasta substitute because it's so much easier than cooking pasta.

And yes, I know it's not hard to cook pasta. But I hate to cook and it's a pain because if I'm also cooking for my family I need two pots, and two colanders, etc. Not worth it since I hate to cook!

Did I mention that I hate to cook? :rolleyes::ph34r:

yea i love those rice bowls! i think they have been there for at least a year, thats when i started buying them. with my family when we have pasta night i make everyone eat the gluten free pasta. no one complains since they don't want to wash all the extra dishes. and my husband actually likes the gluten-free pasta better, and he is not a celiac.

Yeah, I know I could do that. But I'm feeding a teenage boy and he can eat more than anyone I know (except his friends, of course, lol). Gluten free pasta is so expensive. The way he eats I prefer to give him the Barilla which I buy when it's on sale $1.00/box. lol.

      Less than 10 parts per billion issues

      By trents · Posted

      I have no specific recommendations but I would suggest looking for products that are advertised as produced in a dedicated gluten-free facility. That should eliminate one possible route of cross contamination. It doesn't guarantee that none of the ingredients going into the product are totally gluten free but is should eliminate adding more CC to the mix via processing machinery.  One of the issues you may be experiencing is that testing has shown that a significant percentage of "Certified Gluten Free" products can test far in excess of 10ppm. There was an article appearing in this forum back last summer outlining the results of testing that showed this to be true. So, it may be somewhat of a pig in a poke when you buy this stuff, regardless of how it is billed. It may be safe for you if it actually fits within the stated requirements of it's billing.

      I can still have a reaction from “certified gluten free” products I don’t like having to use the eat and see what my body does approach are there really any purely gluten free products or do I just have to make all of my own food?

      Hi I just wanted to update you all and let you know that I finally have my diagnosis. 2 weeks ago I had my third gastroscopy and the biopsy confirmed the damage. Thank you for giving me the information I needed to advocate for myself when I a was a feeling so lost!
