There’s a new magazine on the block for those of us who have to eat Gluten Free (Or those that choose to).  It’s called Delight, Gluten Free.  From the looks of it, it’s going to be published quarterly with recipes and articles.  All for only $14.00 a year.

From the description on their website:

Check out this amazing new magazine! Delight gluten free is a fun food & lifestyle magazine for people with Celiac Disease, gluten intolerance and food allergies. It hosts delicious gourmet recipes and easy semihomemade as well. Don’t miss the Gluten-Free Meals on a Budget either. Whatever your food allergy you should be able to find something that fits your household, in their February issue they offer gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free, egg-free, soy-free and even some rice-free recipes. Not only that, this magazine has a travel section coming in May that will host lots of fun ideas and good advice for when you venture out on the road. Personal stories, inspiring articles on Autism, Q & A with the Doc are among the other features of this magazine.

Sounds like a pretty good magazine to check out.  As I’m sure you’re aware, it’s hard to find good quality recipes and info.  But it’s getting better!  And magazines like Delight are a great resource for all you Celiacs out there.  You can subscribe by visiting the Delight Website: http://www.delightgfmagazine.com and then just click on the Subscribe Now link.  I’m going to.

Lay’s BBQ flavored chips are no longer gluten free.  They changed the ingredients and added barley malt flour.  Give Lay’s a call and express your “distaste” for this change.

This is a really good reminder that unless the package specifically says “Gluten Free”, you need to check the ingredients.

This week (October 15-19) is Celiac week on CNN! Each morning, they’ll be broadcasting a different segment on Celiac disease and it’s causes, symptoms, and treatments.

The schedule is as follows:

Monday the 15th: What is Celiac Disease?

Tuesday the 16th: Non-Gastrointestinal Complications of Celiac Disease.

Wednesday the 17th: Gluten-Free School Lunches

Thursday the 18th: Hope with Celiac Disease

Friday the 19th: Gluten-Free dining in restaurants

I believe that CNN will be posting the segments online if you can’t/don’t catch them as they are broadcast.  You can do a search of their video for Celiac and find Monday’s “What is Celiac Disease“.   It’s a short two minute teaser, but good to see some press on the subject.  The full segment can be seen at CeliacCentral.

Thanks to a listserv email, it has been confirmed that IHOP adds pancake batter to their eggs before making omelettes.   Because their pancake batter is not Gluten Free, neither are their omelettes.  Please be aware of this if you are dining at any restaurant and double check with your server.  You never know when they might be sneaking in something that contains gluten.

A gluten free medlist has been compiled and updated by the Wheaton Celiac Support Group and can be downloaded at www.napervillegi.com.  Simply visit the site and click on the celiac link to get to the link to download the list.
