I'm never going to eat in our cafeteria again. I'm tired of spending the afternoon popping pain pills because of what eating gluten does to me. I was assured that my selections were fine by the cafeteria manager but whoa - PAIN. I had roast beef which was in broth (not gravy), mashed potatoes, and cooked carrots. Within a half hour I was starting to get that funny feeling which I now know indicates that my pain crisis will be starting. Having Celiac is going to force me to plan my meals ahead and not rely on the local cafeteria. I thought asking them would work but obviously cross-contamination is occurring. Sorry for the downer post.

When it comes to your own health, you just can't trust anybody, even the self-proclaimed experts.
ReplyDeleteEspecially the self-proclaimed experts.
That really stinks. Whenever I make things for my bake shop that are GF, I get out in the bakery before cookie production begins, I scrub EVERYTHING that I'm going to be using and make sure that it's all packaged and sealed before any flour comes out of the bins.
ReplyDeletePS I only make marshmallows, chocolate dipped macaroons, and meringue kisses. I find that gluten replacers are sooo expensive and only sold in 50# bags.
