I'm more upset about the article, not the use of the low-gluten host. That is each person's personal decision. I'm just upset that the magazine has decided to chastize this lady for creating an awareness of the disease.

I was just curious if anyone else gets Gluten Free Living Magazine. In the new issue (I just got mine yesterday) there is an article about this issue. The title of the article is First Communion Story Sad, but Untrue. The article is on page 6.

The article is about the little girl and the mother and it goes on to pretty much condemn the mother for making a fuss about this issue. It says they are spouting off mis-information and putting out bad facts. They say that there are other alternatives, such as the low gluten host. The mother shouldn't have made such a big deal, blah blah blah!!!

I'm not really happy about the article in Gluten Free Living magazine, instead of applauding someone for trying to make a difference, they are stomping on her!!! I can't believe this!!

I hope others get this magazine and have the opportunity to read the poor article. Please let me know what you think.

Bush's beans has a gluten-free list. I believe everything is gluten-free except their chili magic line. You will probably want to write them and get a current list. Hope that helps.

-Jessica

There is also a great recipe for enchilada sauce in Bette Hagaman's The Gluten Free Gourmet Cooks Fast and Healthy. The recipe is SUPER easy to make and takes very little time to cook. If you don't already own the book, buy it or check it out from the library it is a GREAT book to have.

There have been articles out recently about people on the adkins diet (which is very similiar to ours) having increased bad breath. I'm not sure where your odor comes from, but you might want to do some searches on "low carb body odor" and see what you can come up with .

-Jessica

If I don't find another great recipe that might be my only option. I have had a few great people email me some wonderful things to try. I am still on the search. I really want something dense like a wedding cake. So please let me know if you all have something wonderful for me to try. I think I will be baking cakes until december! haha!! This is going to be fun!! I love experimenting and cooking. Thanks for the help.

-Jessica

Thanks for the recipe!! Have you tried this out yet?

-Jessica

I am searching for a white wedding cake recipe (gluten-free of course). I will be graduating in December from College and we are having a reception. What is a celebration without cake!!!! I have a good yellow cake recipe, but would really like the cake to be a white one. If you have a tried and true tasty recipe please post it for me!! I would really appreciate it and it would make my graduation day even that more special.

Thanks -Jessica

High and Low blood pressure can also cause dizzyness. You might want to have that checked.

-Jessica

Anytime I get gluten in my system I run a fever of about 99(I always run below normal any other time). I have always chalked it up to the immune response that is going on because of the gluten ingestion. White cells are being produced to fight against the gluten, so I figured that was what the fever resulted from.

You might want to check on that extra sauce you added. It could have been gluten containing. I eat Amy's all the time and haven't had any trouble with the rice crust pizza. Just a thought!

-Jessica

I contacted tropical sno last summer and all of their syrups are gluten free as of that time. Hope that helps you.

Iron can be very harsh on your stomach to begin with. If the company says it is gluten-free, it most likely is. I would bet it is just the iron giving your problems.

Other ways to get iron are drinking some orange juice or other vitamin C filled drink along with eating a piece of iron filled meat like beef. The vitamin C helps with the absorbtion and breaking down of the iron. You might also give that a try.

Hope it helps!!

I'm not sure what group your college uses as their catering services. I contacted Sodhoux and they sounded like an awesome group. Possibly you can try contacting the main company they are contracted with and try to get some results that way.

When they give you food that isn't appropriate bring it to their attention and then they can learn. If you don't bring it up, they think everything is fine.

celiac3270 is right, powerade and gatorade are both gluten-free.

I hope things get easier.

I like the corn pastas. They seem to taste better than most of the sticky rice pasta. I tried Mrs. Leepers corn the other day , it was wonderful!! De boles also makes a few corn ones. Try them, what do you have to loose

Hidden valley ranch is not gluten-free, unless they have changed their forumlation in the last year. You might want to call them and double check. I know when I contacted them they said it contained trace amounts of gluten.

Pilly Cream cheese is gluten-free

-Jessica

Only the Nacho cheese flavored Doritos(in the red bag) contain wheat flour. Hope that clears it up.

-Jessica

These things are never close to me either celiac3270. I guess we just have to throw our own vendor fair! ha Anyone know how they work? Do you contact vendors and get them to send samples or do they send a representative from their company or what?

-Jessica

It is in Oklahoma City, OK. Registrations fees haven't been announced yet. All that the information that is available is in my above posts, it came from the CSA Website. Hope that helps.

-Jessica

Desogen is gluten-free.

I had written to Breyers this week, I thought I would share their response. -Jessica

Dear Jessica,

Thank you for your recent inquiry about gluten in Good Humor-Breyers products.

We currently do not have a gluten list, and are recommending consumers read the

ingredient label on our cartons.  If wheat, barley, or rye were used in a

product, it would be clearly listed.  The flavorings may contain ethyl alcohol.

However, we cannot guarantee from which grain the alcohol was derived.

Because the alcohol used in our products is distilled, there are no proteins

present and would not pose a threat to anyone who is gluten intolerant.

Thank you.

Any time you eat a processed food you are taking a risk pretty much. They are being upfront and warning you that there is a chance of cross-contamination. I personally haven't had trouble with them. I am pretty sensitive.

I had called frito-lay to get an updated list of gluten-free products. Their list online hasn't been updated since 03!! I had to type it out, so please forgive typo's. I hope it is usefull for some of you. Enjoy!! -Jessica

Make sure to let the store and the company that the turkey was made from know that they are carrying expired stuff on the shelves. Food poisoning is not something that we need to deal with!! I hope you get to feeling better. Drink lots of fluids and rest. It will be out of your system soon.
