Yes, after nearly nine years of not having a proper cinnamon roll or bagel, the bread aisle may or may not have and aphrodisiac effect on me. 🤣🤣 (someone had too) I avoid as much contact as I can, I mean if you're breathing it, you're gonna sniff, it's going to end up in your belly. I dip chicken feed with my arm stretched clear out. Recently had b...

You might be a Celiac if, You have ever went to Aldis, bought a bag of salad, went to Dollar Tree and got a bag of Fieras, and ate them happily in a Burger King Parking lot....salad like chips.

No, you haven't learned much. My sister-law worked at that very McDonalds, second shift. She had no idea that they had started cooking the donut sticks in the fryers. But hey type a whole bunch.

They started frying the donuts in them without warning once, I am not messing with them again. I already said that they discontinued them. Go for it brother, then when they come up with some cinnamon churros, of whatever, and don't want them tasting like filet o fish. Have at I bud. I love the tenacity, changing position 27 times and still gnawing at it...

This is an excerpt from the late 2020 McDonalds USA French ingredients. They put up stickers, I seen them, other users have seen them. They reintroduced the donut sticks in February 2020, and have discontinued them since. The fries may be gluten-free now, but they certainly weren't in all US McDonalds in 2020. They put the sticker up after I ate them, if...

Some franchises certainly do have cooked donut sticks in their fryers. I don't go there, so I have no idea if it was promotional or they still do. But they certainly have in the recent past.

Hi Scott, When is that statement from? UK may be different, and I used to love McDonalds fries. Here in the States they fry donut sticks in the fryers. Started in 2019/20ish. Not all locations, but the statement I can find is from 2018. Sincerely

How to Order Gluten-Free Food in a Restaurant
Rick Sanchez commented on Kelly Carter's article in Spring 2023 Issue
What are you, 12? It's hard to judge the smartest one in the room sometimes, but the one that is farthest from it usually stands out. They say dismissive things like duh and dumb instead of being constructive when they disagree. Eat what you want where you want. But you're going to tell me that a pizza joint with crumbs and flour flying all over the place...- 9 comments

McDonalds fries USED TO BE my one little indulgence that I actually go set down and eat, with other humans. Not have to cook, and not have to worry. A couple years ago, got an order of fries, got sick, glutened. Did my little forensic audit, lol, blamed it on something else. A few day later, got another order. Glutened. Talked to a friend who worked at that...

Yep. Most of the symptoms, save maybe the shakey hands, which could just be severe, scream B deficiency. Might need injections until the gut heals? Catch 22, can't absorb because of damage, nerves can't communicate to repair without it. On top of, I have to mention spirolina. Helped me, good source of several Bs and others.

Psychiatric and Neurological Manifestations of Celiac Disease in Adults
Rick Sanchez commented on Jefferson Adams's article in Spring 2023 Issue
It takes a while. Best words anyone ever had for me on it was, "How long have you been sick?"..... "So it's going to take time to get better". I was 35, I got better gradually, but around five years to consider myself well. Are you taking Vitamins? B's are a major catch 22, you need them for neurological health, but the gut gets damaged and hard to absorb... -
Angioedema - Face and Lip Swelling
Rick Sanchez replied to Diana07's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Just a maybe, aspirin and aleve can both cause that. Just personal advice, stay clear away from naproxin-sodium (aleve), and aspirin only if needed for your heart health. My goto is ibuprofen. Ibuprofen, benadryl, a single Tylenol, and a cup of coffee if I get glutened, and it sucks that it takes all that to work as well as an aleve, but in my humble opinion... -
Pretty much the same here, I get bad jount pain, and the bathroom trips are kinda the opposite unless I get I to a bunch. I don't know if the feeling worse the longer in-between is a physical/chemical actually worse kind of thing, or just not used to it. Before I got diagnosed and started to get better, I had like a stupid high pain tolerance. I...

Plain corn meal
Rick Sanchez replied to mbrookes's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Do you ever do the hot water cornbread? Been messing with it, came up with some good batters, just substituting masa for the flour. Just a hard learned lesson, if you try on your catfish, don't use cornstarch, really any starch in any deep fry batter. Kinda cool that they seal and start moving around the fryer like little jet skis, until they explode and... -
It's sad, but you can't trust "new study shows". A lot of people promoting agendas, for a whole lot of reasons. It can be from justifying grant money, pharma kickbacks, to just wanting to sell ads. Probiotics do wonders, which ones are best, I have no clue. Just plain old "real" lactofermented foods, homemade kraut, pickles, dilly beans, etc.... might give...

A couple days to a week is perfectly normal. It varies a lot, even individually. I'm probably the odd duck, but it feels like a little glutened feels worse the second day, than getting into a lot. Two years ago my ex took me to a restaurant that had gluten-free options....yeh...about an hour after..dual directional expulsion... but the feeling of unwell...

Plain corn meal
Rick Sanchez replied to mbrookes's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I've ran into this, I have a "Type N600" (only label on it) coffee grinder. They are like $70 on Amazon. I have been grinding field corn. Set on the fine setting, run through, sift, and run the coarse back through. I kinda "invented" an awesome GFcornbread recipe, that is really good. Once I get it tweaked I'll post it, but it is "hot water cornbread"... -
I've been gluten free for 7 years now. I grew up with sinus allergies so bad my nose would just randomly bleed, right up to a few months after going gluten-free, now I don't. Ear infections, sitting in the chair while a doctor sticks a funnel in my ear and scrapes, many times, because they were too infected to put tunes in. Whatever the mechanism, there...

It takes time, sounds like you were pretty far along. It takes a long time to get that sick, it will take a long to get well. About 5 years for me to get to the point I could actually call myself well. A doctor who is a personal friend, not my doctor really made me mad right after being diagnosed. Me half dead and miserable, he very casually said "at least...

Yup. 100% Spirolina is a pretty good source for much of the above. Unsupported by a double blind academic study, I might add, it seems like there can also be a colonitis like effect from coarse textured foods, such as nuts and seeds, physically hanging up maybe, higher in the damaged gut. Horse or carriage, I don't know. I just know I am not the only...
