Gluten-Free Watercooler-Daily News

According to the September, 5th issue of the Daily News New York, going Gluten-Free is the hottest new trend.  For me and anyone else that cannot tolerate Gluten, I hardly call this a trend.  But more and more people based on diet alone are switching to gluten-free.

My boss passed this group of articles to me back in september.  It has taken me a while to blog about it.  When she passed it to me originally I thought I had to blog this immediately, but alas, my schedule did not permit, so here I am now.  Better late then never.

The headline read: Daily News New York Eats...Never Say Diet...
Why is going Gluten-Free so deliciously easy

I'd say hardly.  First off, going gluten-free is so not easy, so don't let these easy breezy catch phrases fool you or make you think you are doing something wrong.  LOL, it is a journey.

What I liked about the article was that everyone reads the daily news, and for those that are un-familiar or need more understanding this article was great.  It's an eye opener for any ignorant person who don't understand the disease.  I like that going gluten free is becoming common.  That makes it easier for me to dine and shop.

Recipes included:

Greek Style Lamb
Mixed Berry Muffins
Poached Eggs with Spinach and Garlic Yogurt Dressing
Puffed Corn Snack Mix
Papaya Cooler

The pics were mouth watering.  It was a great spread.  To find this article click HERE.

Enjoy! xoxo Julie

Magnolia Bakery-Cream Cheese Frosting

Another amazing frosting recipe from Magnolia!  I swear by these recipes, this is my go-to book for icing when I bake!! 1 pound (two 8-ounce packages) cream cheese, softened and cut into small pieces 6 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened and cut into small pieces 1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract 5 cups sifted confectioners' sugar In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth, about 3 minutes.  Add the vanilla and beat well.  Gradually add the sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating continuously until smooth and creamy.  Cover and refrigerate icing for 2-3 hours, but no longer, to thicken before using. Makes enough for one 2-or 3-layer 9-inch cake Enjoy! xoxo Julie www.goodiegoodiegluten-free.blogspot.com  

Not All Advil Is Gluten-Free!!!

After last night's POST , GF Advil was on my mind and I decided to call Advil/Pfizer this morning to get some more clarification.  In response to my post last night I advised through the website that Advil Liqui-gels, Advil Migraine and Advil Liqui-Gels PM contain a wheat derivative.  After my phone call with a lovely representative I received more information. - ALL ADVIL LIQUI-GELS contain a wheat derivative .   ALL LIQUI-GELS.  So stop these immediately if you are taking the Liqui-gels.  You maybe getting sick from a medication rather then a food and this is so important to recognize!  Just steer clear of Liqui-Gels. -ALL FORMS OF ADVIL MIGRAINE contain gluten .  There is no further information if it is just the Liqui-Gels or the Tablets, Caplets and Gel-Caps.  Pfizer does not have this info therefore they informed me to steer clear of all Advil Migraine pills. Here is what IS GLUTEN-FREE FROM ADVIL: All Advil Tablets, Gel...

What's in The Gatorade You Are Drinking?

I don't know why I never blogged about this, but I have known it for some time.  And was just reminded of this the other day while I was at CVS and felt the need to spread the gluten-free word.  I also tweeted it. Did you know that certain Gatorade flavors like the fruit punch (red) flavor has caramel coloring in it?  Yup! It totally does. In the U.S. a processed product considered gluten-free has 20 or below 20ppm ( parts per million ).  Therefore products can seem gluten-free and even say gluten-free, even if they are not 100% gluten-free because our standards allow that and consider it Gluten-Free.   And different processed foods contain different levels of gluten-some contain less then 10ppm or even 5 parts per million.  That's lower but still...no cigar. The less you consume the better and the article I just found on Celiacdisease.about.com  points that the more under 20ppm/10/5ppm products you consume, the more gluten in your system...
