🚨 ‼️ PSA ‼️ 🚨

Just thought it would only be right of me to share some new information to the GF community since i don’t gate-keep as that’s the whole point of my account:)

If you take a Gouda (must be Gouda!!) babybell cheese round, and eat it with the GF snyder’s pretzel sticks… it almost tastes like those little pretzel snack packs with the trashy cheese?? I miss little trashy snacks sometimes and bc they hold nostalgic memories. This one was super unexpected just now as I was just trying to enjoy some cheese and my mind was blown 🧀 🥨

Okay that’s all for now 💛 🧑‍🍳

Every time I go to a doctor (ex. Occupational therapist, orthopedist) and explain to them how I lost use of my hand for one year and after I stopped eating gluten it came back and I haven’t had an issue with that specific thing since, they laugh in my face condescendingly, like I’m making up that very real and direct causation.

Just came here to say fck them. And thanks to this community for getting me at least.

Hi y’all! I have an issue that I’m wondering if anyone else has dealt with, or maybe has some advice on. In the past 16 months, I’ve been glutened 3 times which is abnormally high for me. With each glutening, my body goes through so much pain that I tend to lose weight very rapidly. Because of getting so sick so often, I’ve lost a LOT a weight and it is very noticeable.

Here is my issue: people (esp my in-laws) love to comment on my weight and talk about how FABULOUS and SKINNY I look. I always feel so weird because I feel praised for looking “good” but I look that way because I was debilitatingly sick for months. Additionally, because of how rapid the weight loss has been, I feel disconnected from my body and don’t recognize myself some days.

Has anyone dealt with either of these issues and can give advice on how to cope?

TLDR? Scientists say you’re safe, even if your kissy-face buttercup has more than 20 ppm of gluten in their spit.

Hey guys I’ve stayed away from liquor since my diagnosis because I hear that they can be stored in old beer barrels contaminating it, I understand that distilled spirits like vodka and gin are safe to consume, but is there a specific brand you guys use? Any that you stay away from? Im working behind an abc store and want to get a bottle after work today. Thank you in advance

in your opinion which store has the greatest selection of free from foods?

this is a survey for my own curiosity, not any actual reason lol. i base my feelings on whichever store has the nicest bread of their own brand, but you can literally use whatever standards you want

for me, i'd say morrisons with tesco following in as a close second. they both have nice bread (seaded my beloved 😫) and overall their big stores have a nice selection (but that can also be said about asda, which is in third place). there's something about sainsburys that i just don't vibe with
