I use Dove shampoo/conditioner. It is a unilever product and my understanding is that this company clearly labels. They also own Sauve which is cheaper than Dove.

I called the 800 number and complained. At least they did not use the "healthy" excuse. The rep told me it was a qualty issue. Still very sad

Our family loves cooking bean packets over the fire for dinner. I love the easy clean up. We take Bush's original baked beans, hebrew national or oscar meyer hotdogs and then pile on various fixings. Some that we have are chopped bell pepper, pineapple, onion, mustard, ketchup, cheese, barbeque sauce and anything else you can think of. As always read the label to make sure ingredients have not changed! For smores we use hershey's chocolate, kraft marshmellows and I buy myself some gluten-free graham craker type of cookie. Not the same but close enough for me. I think you will find camping fairly easy.

I am in CO and have not found any of the new gluten-free mixes. Still have not found the strawberry, chocolate or cinnamon chex. I have found the honey nut but only at SuperTarget. King Soopers (aka Kroger) has had the rice and corn chex but no other flavors.

I am so anxious for these new things to hit the shelves!

The meal might have been gluten-free with no hidden gluten. I was on the gluten-free diet for a long time until I felt better. I think my damage had occured over such a long period of time it took awhile to heal. In retrospect I should have stayed away from alcohol and dairy, but I didn't. Feel better soon.

I usually flake mine over a mixed salad with a vinegaratte dressing or mix it like a tuna salad and serve with gluten-free crackers.

Hez

Oh my, does that sound good!

I was at Starbucks this weekend and kept staring at the case! I was trying to will the case into having a gluten-free treat. I should have asked if they had some behind the counter. Didn't even cross my mind. I am so hoping to find the cake over the summer. It would be nice to have something while having a coffee with friends.

Has anyone else seen/tried the cake?

Just got back from Colorado Springs this weekend. I had a wonderful dinner at the Briarhurst in Manitou Springs. Chef Peoples is amazing. I had a wonderful salmon with a creamy sauce and sorbet for dessert. Great place!

I finally found some gluten-free honey nut chex at SuperTarget!!!! They are so good! I can not stop eating them. Love them right out of the box.

If you are Catholic you are getting a "complete" communion with just the wine. My understanding is that in the Catholic church the bread must have wheat. A rice cracker would not be acceptable. There are a group of nuns somewhere in the US that make a low gluten wafer that might be acceptable to the church.

If you are not Catholic most churches seem to be accomadating if you go talk to the priest/pastor and explain the situation. Ener-g makes a gluten-free host and plain rice crackers also work.

I encourage you to be open and honest with your priest/pastor to find a solution.

Good Luck,

Hez

I would love for them to expand their product line. Pizza would be a great start!

Hez

Okay it is official I am jealous I can only find the rice chex at my stores in CO. I am dying to get a hold of the other flavors. I did find the honey kix at Super Target and bought those but I really want the chex! I will keep looking!

I did not feel better for 6 months. Then slowly things improved. By the 7th month I felt completly normal (who would have guessed!).

One thing that made my recovery slower (isn't hindsight great) IMHO was that I continued to have dairy and alcohol. In my anger I felt like just doing gluten-free was hard enough and I was not going to eliminate anything else from my diet.

I learned in month 5 that my lipstick had gluten! I learned in month 6 that eating cheese and pear that had been cut from the same knive that cut bread made me sick (did not find out about the knife until after I was sick).

I guess my point is that it takes time to heal. The healing time is different for everyone. There is a lot of trial and error. Be patient and you will feel better!

I drink all coke products (I do not care for Pepsi), dr pepper, gatorade, vitamin water, wine, hard cider (woodchuck says gluten-free on the bottle), most alcohol, juices and tea.

I would not touch the stuff! Here is what the company says about gluten-free status

Are Food for Life sprouted breads "gluten free?"

Any product that contains wheat (including semolina, durum, spelt, triticale, and kamut) rye, barley, or oats cannot be considered Gluten-Free. What is important is the sprouting process, through enzymatic activity, changes gluten to a more digestible or tolerable state. Many individuals with mild gluten sensitivities use sprouted products with no adverse side affects or allergic reactions. However each person

I will try getting the link on here to the recipe I use. It is not as easy as opening a can of soup but it has the same consistency as the cream of condensed soups have. Works great in everything I have tried it in.

I am so jealous! I have not been able to find the other flavors. I am hopeful they will show up at some point.

I had a great experience on Royal Carribean last year! I did have the choice of a plain chicken, steak or salmon but I also had a choice of other entrees on the menu. One night I wanted the beef but could not have the sauce. The chef mad a gluten-free sauce for me. My only complaint is that I had no desserts just fruit plates.

Hez

I noticed the new packaging as well. My package does not say gluten-free. Since the ingredients looked the same I figured I would give it a try. I have not had any problems.

Hez

We have decided to spend a few days for Spring Break at Copper Mountain in Colorado. We will have a kitchen so I am planning on bringing food. But I was curous if anyone has stayed there and what their experience is?

Thanks,

Hez

I am pretty sure that all of their teas are gluten-free. I checked the website a few months ago to see if the sweet and spicy tea was gluten-free. It was! Please double check just in case I miss read something. I was only looking for info on one of their teas.

I ususally pick this up when I see a new issue at Whole Foods. I had a subscription for a while but became frustrated at the company. I like it enough to buy it but not get a subscription.

Last year I found some frozen pie crusts at Whole Foods. Loved the convience hated the taste This year I have made my own using a mix (cannot remember which company).

I use Authentic Foods all purpose gluten-free multi blend flour. I love this stuff! I use my old recipies and just substitute cup for cup with this flour. I even can use it for sugar cookie cut out. I swear by this stuff.

PS-I do not work for Authentic Foods
