  • I'm not a fan of Tyson Chicken....For some reason it gives me a bad stomach ache...I have no problem with Perdue chicken. Back in 2008, Tyson was caught by the USDA for injecting hormones into chickens before they were hatched....Also if it means anything, Tyson supplies KFC.... [/quote] Same here! I live with my dad and…
  • This is true. I only get honeysuckle white products. I get the turkey breast from them and cook it up in a crockpot, really good. The gravy that comes with it (seperate packet) is gluten free as well. Anyone have problems with Tyson chicken? I can't eat it, it makes me sick.
  • I haven't given up meat since watching the movie but I have been more active in choosing grass fed meats, cage free eggs, etc. I've been looking for local farmers markets but its still pretty cold here so it may be a few months. I was shocked at what can be made from corn! I don't eat corn but its becoming a scary grain.…
  • You sound like me. It took 3 years for me to finally get a positive Celiac disease diagnosis. I kept being told I had IBS but once I went GF all my IBS symptoms disappeared. A big key is to read labels on EVERYTHING. Even things that may look safe could have gluten, wheat, barley, malt, rye, or oats all things you need to…
  • Talk to the schools nutritionist. Celiac is considered a disability and is under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Basically they have to try and offer you some type of accomidation but it can be very little, see below. I'm in college but I commute as its so much easier to live at home and eat. One school I wanted to go…
  • Its perfectly fine. I get 1 g per pound of body weight daily. Its not bad unless you have kidney problems.
  • One of my faves is putting a turkey breast in the crockpot. I usually put some union inside the and around the turkey breast, garlic, a little bit of olive oil, and parsley. Carve it up and you've got something to eat through out the week. I'm making one tomorrow.
  • I tend to stick with resturants that I know are safe. If its someplace I've never been I'll check the menu out ahead of time. I'm see more and more GF options and even seperate menus at some places. I usually go with mexican and get a hard shell taco or fajitas and replace the flour with corn tortillas. I've been fine…
  • I found the main culprit to be the gluten free foods. They are way more calorie dense and not to mention expensive. I limit the gluten free foods but have certain things like pasta and gf flour on hand. I just eat a lot of natural foods like chicken, tukey, veggies, fruit, nuts, etc.
  • Wonderful post! I hate when people refer to the disease as an allergy. It may take a while to get a positive diagnosis. Please try her on a totally gluten free diet and see how she feels. I went undiagnosed for 3 years and I wish I wasn't the niave teenager and went totally gluten free. I felt if it was a negative…
  • I like making bread from the Gluten Free Pantry French Bread and Pizza Mix. It also makes a wonderful pizza. The bread is really good especially the first couple days after its baked. I've always sliced it all up after its cooled and left some to use and put the rest in the freezer. The key for the freezer is for it to…
