Interesting as I have checked in my local Morrisons twice recently for Mince Pies and they never have any. I might contact them to complain!

Have you guys been trying out gluten-free mince pies yet? Don't bother with the Tesco ones (very dry and crumbly and not much filling), however the Sainsburys ones I really recommend (good pastry and lots of filling). I will also be making my own this weekend!

Does celiac cause regular ridges on nails (Beau's lines?)

Interesting, although looking at photos of nails affected by psoriasis mine look different so not sure if it is that -
Does celiac cause regular ridges on nails (Beau's lines?)
rarchy replied to rarchy's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Hi all, Thanks for your replies, some really helpful information. I had googled it all before but just got very confused! The malnutrition does sound the most likely cause, so I am trying to get to the bottom of what is specifically causing my nails to grow like this. Looking at those links and others it seems zinc and vitamin b3 are both possible causes... -
I was wondering if any of you guys have or had ridges on your nails which you think are related to celiac/gluten?

Wow I know who to ask when it comes to gluten-free cakes and sweet treats! ? I did have some gluten-free hot cross buns over easter which were pretty good, one lot were from ASDA and the other I can't remember the name but I bought in Morrisons (not their brand, they don't seem to sell much which is Morrisons branded). The thing that I will miss is...

Thanks thats good to know, I did think some of what Coeliac UK said seemed to contrast with actual celiacs and their experiences. I am definitely going to stay on the stricter side. I have their food guide in printed form and the app, but to be honest I have just been checking the ingredients of whatever I buy, like we discussed my other post if it mentions...

Hi Ennis, thanks for the reply. I don't think they have changed the ingredients, as far as I know the barley malt vinegar has always been there, and the Coeliac UK list is pretty up to date I believe. Its weird as Coeliac Uk actually say on their website that barley malt vinegar is ok! I will give it a miss if this is what others do, best not to take the...

Just wanted to see if you guys eat or avoid dried barley malt vinegar in crisps etc? I saw it was considered an allergen in the ingredients (http://www.kettlefoods.co.uk/our-hand-cooked-chips/kettle-chips/flavour/sea-salt-and-balsamic-vinegar/ingredients/) and so assumed it should be avoided, however I have since read conflicting information including on...
