gluten free products?
They have had a good bit on tv about celiac disease. Where do people find gluten free products without having to read the label on every product? I found that Kroger carries that section of food but we don't have a Kroger within 80 miles of us. Anyone have any good suggestions to find the products quickly?
Thanks.

Re: gluten free products?
My son has celiac disease and I buy his food from the health food store or order it online. Also in the last few weeks I found Tops and Meijers both have sections with gluten free products. I bake his bread, cakes, and cookies from gluten free mixes. My son is extremely tall for his age but he was diagnosed at a year old and I have been very careful to keep him gluten free since then. Oh, and on regular products I do read every label. You have to know what ingredients to look for. If there is any doubt in my mind then I don't buy it.

I have a friend whose dh has celiac disease, she uses rice flour in everything, and buys from a local food co-op. There are a lot of gluten free foods out there right now,but it is in everything, including canned soups. Most products use flour as a thickener.

Just letting you know in case you ever eat at Outback .. we have an extensive Gluten Free menu (just ask your server for one) including our desert "thunder from down under" .. brownie with ice cream .. we bake flour-less brownies .. they are awesome and gluten free 
They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them. Distance and time may separate us but friendship and memories won't.

We had to try the gluten-free diet for my son for 2 months and we had to shop at the health food store, fred meyers (like kroger), Safeway had some but I see they have more now, and Trader Joe's. We live in a little town so we had to drive 40 miles or more to find places that sold a wider variety of gluten-free products.
Thankfully, we didn't have to continue that diet after the 2 months. It was just so hard to do that diet with his other dietary restrictions (at the time, no green veggies, no citrus fruits or juices, no tomatoes or tomato products, no spicy foods, no dairy, and low sodium).

I buy gluten free products at Whole Foods,also their bakery makes everything there at the store and it is gluten free and delicious. My daughter has autism and I switched her diet a few years ago,it has helped her ALOT!
A dog is not almost human , I know of no greater insult to a canine than to describe it as such.

We found a store last weekend called Earth Fare it is quite expensive but my son bought $320 worth of items , he is in hog heaven with the items he bought...

One of our professors has celiac disease, and he and his wife do most of their shopping at Whole Foods. Not cheap, but they are a big resource for his diet. They get foods that contain rice flour instead of wheat. It's made a big difference in his health.
Reading labels is a real eye-opener. When I used to help my mom with shopping, I was stunned to find out how much sodium was in breakfast cereals. Several of my favorite 'fat-free' salad dressings listed sugar or high fructose corn syrup as the SECOND ingredient. If you haven't read the labels, you're missing some important information.
