  1. The Santa Fe style rice and beans is also labeled as gluten free.
  2. I have been able to get gluten free pizzas at Godfathers in Iowa for a couple of years now. Not sure if this is the same as the frozen pizza the original poster mentioned, though.
  3. Rice chex....Lea & Perrins Wostercershire....good stuff! Oh man, I just remembered that I'm out of lemon juice.
  4. I'm not sure how widespread of a chain they are, but Godfather's offers gluten free pizzas. You have to call and request them one day ahead of time, though, and then they make them the night before so they're not in the oven with the other pizzas.
  5. I tend to read labels very carefully and avoid products with any kind of gluten in them; however, I don't seek out totally gluten free dedicated line foods. This may be because my reactions haven't been as extreme as others have. You will become an expert at reading labels in short order. It's probably easiest to start off with totally gluten free products...
  6. Actually I think it's not wheat but barley malt in the nougat of Milky Ways that has gluten; the nougat of the Midnight is different than the nougat of the regular Milky Way and doesn't have that barley.

    ARCHIVED Biaggi's

    I'm not sure if this has been covered, but Biaggi's has an EXCELLENT gluten-free menu. I was so thrilled to go to a pasta restaurant, as for the gluten-free menu, and be handed something that was *pages* long instead of the usual 3x5 card that other places have. Two thumbs up to Biaggi's!
  8. Have you ever tried to make gluten-free wonton wrappers? Do you even think it would work? Is there some other substitute?
  9. I believe chamomille is in the ragweed family, and people with allergies to ragweed can also have problems with chamomille tea. Perhaps that is the source of your headache?
  10. If you know they'll list any major allergens, and they don't list "wheat" for modified food starch, then it should be okay.
  11. Hersheys Kissables are kinda like M&Ms, and their ingredients look okay....you know, just in case.

    ARCHIVED Chillis

    I haven't been to one that still carries the baked potato soup, lately, which really makes me sad because that does sound SO good.
  13. How do you use that on your mac 'n' cheese? Do you add milk and butter, like the powder in the boxes? No need to apologize!
  14. I used to LOVE cocoa puffs! That would be great. Cocoa pebbles are just too, I don't know, pebble-y for me.
  15. All I saw at the grocery store was a little can that indicated I could shake it on popcorn--is the mac 'n' cheese cheese from Kraft in a big can like the parmesan?
  16. I like Envirokidz Gorilla Munch...I think it's Corn-Pop-like, although honestly I never ate corn pops.
  17. I'm going to echo what Laura said; except I think I paid FIFTY dollars for a useless dietician. Honestly, I think you'd do better to just look at this site. All my dietician did was print me out a bunch of mostly useless lists.
  18. I don't think they have the baked potato soup anymore, much to my chagrin. At least the ones around me don't.
  19. I think it's the buttered toast flavor that's not gluten-free.
  20. I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to that January 1 food labelling date. It's nice that some things have already started and I can do a quick look at the end of the ingredients to see, oh yeah: wheat. Guess I can't have that.
  21. Yes, it is an American English expression. Each person in the couple is considered "half' of the whole, so it is a joke in our country to call the other person the "better" half.
  22. Yes, the restaurant was a little weird about it. I had discussed it with the owner first, and he said "No problem" in such a way that suggested that he knew what the heck I was talking about. But the night I actually went there, he wasn't there, and the workers didn't seem to quite "get it." I actually had them put their toppings on, after carefully...
  23. I had my dietician appointment right after I was diagnosed, and found out AFTERWARDS that a lot of what she told me was wrong. Ugh! All she did was pretty much hand me some pieces of paper with recipes and food. The food listing said that Cocoa Puffs were okay (no they're not) and that processed cheese, like Velveeta was out (which it isn't). ...
  24. Do you have a pizza oven? Does it help? So far I haven't managed to get pizza to taste OK enough to even bother, but when I went to a pizza restaurant and had them run my crust through their oven it tasted sooo close to normal. I wonder if it was the oven?
  25. Isn't it frustrating when dieticians lead you wrong? I've had more than one instance where I suddenly found out, wait, that's okay? That was on the "no" list from the dietician!
