Awhile ago (June 14, 2009 to be exact), we reviewed Edward & Sons’ Gluten Free Ice Cream Cones. These were in the ‘cup’ shape. While shopping at Whole Foods in Raleigh recently, we found Let’s Do…Gluten Free Sugar Cones. Some also call them waffle cones, but either way, they are the type with a pointy [...]
We recently made a trip to the N. Raleigh Trader Joe’s (Cel-Kids Google Map here: http://preview.tinyurl.com/26q2zam). You can also visit the location in Cary, but we live closer to Wake Forest location. We stocked up on a variety of items that we will include over the next few weeks. We picked up the TJ’s brand [...]
After all the many rave reviews on Facebook: from Tara: http://udisglutenfree.com/products I tried this bread in Oregon last week. It’s the best I’ve had so far. I see they sell it at Harmony Farms in Raleigh. and from friends, we finally tried udi’s gluten free sandwich bread. Our girls LOVED it. The only downside is [...]
Awhile ago we reviewed an iPhone App for local restaurants (http://www.raleighcelkids.com/?p=86). Since then, I have purchased a Sprint Evo 4G, which runs a different operating system than the iPhones. It runs the Linux OS Android. Much like iPhone, Android possesses the ability to run all types of free and for-cost applications or apps. Once I [...]
A large reason why the Raleigh Cel-Kids helps parents is the sharing of information. At our most recent event, I talked with some parents, discussing various products. One mentioned finding Snyder’s gluten free pretzels at Whole Foods. Yes, the mainstream pretzel/chip manufacturer. For a Celiac family, this represented huge news. While we love the Glutino [...]
Snyder’s really seems to be gluten free friendly these days. Many of their chips/products seemed to be gluten free, according to the ingredient lists, but we noticed, in puchasing the Naturals Corn and Rice Puffs recently, they clearly mark the package as gluten free. Yeah! Also, we heard rumors of Snyder’s gluten free pretzel. Check [...]
Pat, our Cel-Kids sponsor and member of the Raleigh Adult Celiac Support Group recently passed on this great resource–Campbells’ Gluten Free Product List. The list (click the link below) does a nice job first explaining gluten and how Campbell’s verifies gluten in their products. They also go into a nice explanation of how they identify [...]
While shopping recently, we stopped in the yogurt section to look through all the brands and flavors. Years ago, before our oldest was first diagnosed, she loved Breyer’s Creme Savers. If not familiar, Creme Savers yogurt taste just like the Creme Savers hard candies. Yum! But alas, at that time, they could not guarantee they [...]
Maria from Happy Tummy Baking Company recently donated pizzas to our group. A group of about 50 Cel-Kids members sampled the pizzas at PlayNation and by the number of ‘seconds’ and ‘thirds’ by the kids, we think they liked the crust. You can purchase the frozen crusts at Whole Foods (Google Maps Link) and Harmony [...]
Yup, it’s that time. Time parents love and kids don’t. Back to school. With a Celiac, that can pose difficult, but with some planning, you can make it through smoothly. Recently, Jules Shepard from JulesGlutenFree.com sent a free Back to School Guide offer. The guide contains lots of great information including how to approach teachers, [...]
