That was my concern....cross contamination!

I'm familiar w/ Lame Advertisement. It's a good line. BUT I don't buy it b/c of the cross contamination concern.

State Laws, politics...AGH!

Now I need an antacid, but thanks for clarifying the state law thing for me none the less.....

Ok, I can do that. But what does the state law have to do w/ whether they can get it or not???

Okay....that's it! It's summer, it's hot and i'd really like to be able to crack open a cold beer!

I've concluded that we, as celiacs, need a gluten-free Beer Campaign or something to see about getting these beer companies to make gluten-free beer more accessible. And it would be a dream to have someone come up w/ a beer that tastes similiar to a good ol' American Beer (Bud, Coors, Miller, etc.).

I have not been able to find gluten-free beer ANYWHERE and any website we can order it from is WAY outta my budget. Geez, by the time you pay for the beer and the shipping costs one would have to dip into their retirement to cover the costs.

Is anyone else as frustrated about this as I am??

I'd like to know which gluten-free Beer(s) taste like (Bud Lite, Miller Lite, Coors Lite, etc.)....and where do you order it from? I've looked around online and maybe i'm retarded, but I can't figure out which gluten-free beer would taste like a good ol American beer much less can I find where to order it. I miss a good cold one....HELP!!

Cookies are DONE and they turned out pretty darn well!! Thanks everyone have a happy Memorial Day!

Thank you dear. Of course I don't have the potato starch and the thought of having to go back to the store PAINS me...SO I guess since I have the Gluten Free Pantry cookie mix i'll just use that this time around and do the Toll House one the next time....

I tell ya, gluten-free baking gives me indigestion at times b/c it never fails, I get all ready to turn my kitchen into a gluten-free bakehouse like a good lil Turtle & it always seems i'm missing just one ingredient! HAH!

The recipe calls for potato starch...is that the same as EnerG Potato Mix??

Has anyone tried the recipe on the back of the EnerG Potato Mix box for choc chip cookies??

Thanks for anyone who can help the Turtle who has baking challenges...HAHA!

Rusla:

You made me laugh so hard that I think that alone made me drop a pound!!! You're a RIOT!!!

YES!!!!

I have a recipe I use very similiar to this and it's soooo GOOD!!!!

I think you're on to something jerseyangel...i've had headaches and some neck/shoulder pain but just associated it with other things but after reading more about TMJ and reading your post and the others it's all coming together now...

I can't get a break...earlier in the week I was having my cervix handed to me and now this...AGH!!!

Somehow, someway I WILL put down a gluten-free pizza tonight to make me feel better. HAHA!

I just talked to my dentist friend and he mentioned TMJ as well. He told me to put a hot compress on it for 20-30 min off and on all day today and then see where that leaves me. I just moved so I don't have a new dentist yet (go figure) so i'll have to hope for the best and then locate someone here to see....

Thanks for trying to help. The whole thing is WEIRD. And of course painful.

When I went to bed last night I had a slight pain in my jaw. I didn't really think much about it, just thought it would go away. I woke up several times in the night and the pain had increased. It doesn't hurt when I brush my teeth (my teeth are not sensitve or anything like that). It all seems to be in the jaw. If I open my mouth wide it hurts, if I eat it hurts, if I move my face/jaw around it hurts....anyone have any ideas what on earth this could be???

WOW! That is so cool!!

Thanks for sharing....

Anyone have any feedback about cruises and meeting gluten-free needs??? Or feedback about a cruise/cruiseline you've been on that met the gluten-free needs, etc.

We're considering going on one b/c we can get a great rate through the military, but I want to first get as much info and feedback before making a decision. It's not like there will be a PF Cheng's on board. HAHA!

Thanks!

FYI: In case anyone wants to know.....I called the 1-800 number today about the Jack Daniels Bar-B-Que sauces. The lady said that the SAUCES are NOT gluten free but that the MARINADES that come in the packets are gluten free.

I know

I checked there last night....i'll call the 1-800 number today. No big deal. Thanks for trying to help.

Anyone know if this is gluten-free?

I've tried to search around on here to see if anyone else posted about this already but I must be retarded b/c I can't EVER get the search thing to work. HA!

Anyhow, thought i'd ask...I will try to call the 1-800 number tomorrow too!

Thanks!

The Brown Rice Bread is the one I eat too. I love it!

I tried the White Rice but it always fell apart.

Good luck to you in your bread search!

Thanks everyone for the replies!!! I appreciate you taking the time to give me some ideas!!

I'm going to Las Vegas soon and usually when we go somewhere we always book a place that has a kitchenette. HOWEVER, my other half is in the military and the military is putting us up and it does not have a kitchenette. We're trying to confirm if it even has a fridge and/or a microwave.

So...I was wondering if anyone is from the area or has vacationed in Vegas and if anyone has any gluten-free tips or knows of places to eat that are gluten-free, etc. I'm going to call the hotel and see what I can find out including if their restaurants can do anything for me, etc. If not, I guess I'll eat gluten-free ceral bars and drink a bunch of bacardi rum drinks the entire time i'm there. HAHA!!!

Thanks for any input!

Thanks everyone for your input.

I too have been using Aunt Jamima cornmeal w/ no issues....but after hearing what ya'll have to say about Quaker that's a bummer....

Anyone know anything about Aunt Jamima cornmeal mix? I noticed on their label it's a Quaker product but i'm not clear on if it's really gluten-free???

Awesome! Thanks for sharing your list too. I tried to get them to e-mail me something but they wouldn't so kudos to you for getting through on that end. Have a great weekend!
