Backlash Against the Gluten Free Diet

xsDt5DTL

Caution: Rant Ahead…

I just read an article in Yahoo Beauty [probably the root of the problem] of all places on eating gluten free. I hesitate to even link to it, but here it is… Here’s the real reason your friend’s ‘gluten-free’ diet is probably making them feel better

First of all, the article is inaccurate at at least one major point… suggesting that gluten sensitivity is “probably not true.” The people behind Yahoo Beauty may want to talk to the fine folks at Columbia University… Gluten sensitivity may be caused by immune response, study finds

Of course, I have celiac disease so no one with a couple of brain cells to rub together would suggest that I eat anything other than gluten free. What this is about is ganging up on a group of people that participate in a perceived annoying behavior (eating gluten free) for the purpose of driving internet traffic. The problem with that is that people read the headline and not much else and don’t really look into the facts. and… the annoyance and misinformation is perpetuated.

If there is a real issue here, it is a lack of awareness about Celiac Disease and Gluten Sensitivity. Read Jennifer Esposito’s Story and you’ll soon understand the seriousness of this issue. It’s a serious and sometimes life threatening condition.

It can take years and years for people to be diagnosed with CD. That’s not funny and it’s not cute, it’s serious. I don’t know how many such headlines or articles my general practitioner read to come up with the conclusion that I was… crazy to think I had a problem with gluten. All I can say is… Thank you to Google for your part in my self diagnosis.

I’ve talked with plenty of people that have Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity and still others that just feel better eating gluten free.

At the end of the day… What does anyone care what anyone else eats. I say to those the web “news sources” that help perpetuate misinformation to make a buck… shame on you for throwing people under the bus.

Gluten… it’s an issue for a lot of people.

Kitchen Tools: The Cuisinart Griddler

We cover the occasional kitchen related item here on Gluten Free Finds because, we gluten free folks, tend to cook for ourselves a lot. See: Topics Covered

Cuisinart GR-4NR 5-in-1 Griddler, Silver, Red Dials by Cuisinart

5-in-1 countertop unit works as a contact grill, panini press, full grill, full griddle and half grill/half griddle
Brushed stainless-steel housing; sturdy panini-style handle; floating cover to adjust to thickness of food
Removable and reversible nonstick cooking plates drain grease for healthy cooking; integrated drip tray
Adjustable temperature controls with indicator lights; gourmet recipes and scraping tool included
Product Built to North American Electrical Standards. Please refer the Product Video and the User Manual before use.

I picked this up a while back, mainly to do panini type sandwiches (of course with GF bread). It’s becoming one of my new favorite kitchen tools. It works great for sandwiches and a lot more. I just made some great eggs and bacon with this thing. For some reason I’ve always had a problem cooking a good egg. The griddler provides a nice even temperature and an open (no pan sides) cooking surface to easily flip things, like pancakes (of course GF) and eggs.

Kitchen Gadgets: T-fal FR8000 Deep Fryer

We cover the occasional kitchen related item here on Gluten Free Finds because, we gluten free folks, tend to cook for ourselves a lot. See: Topics Covered

Since I have Celiac Disease [About Me], I can’t eat fried foods at most restaurants because of cross-contamination concerns. Since I would still like to enjoy the occasional fried thing, I picked up a deep fryer.

img_purchdate

After shopping around, comparing reviews, cost and features I settled on the T-fal FR8000 EZ Clean Deep Fryer.

I really like it because of it’s large capacity and basket and how easy it makes clean up. A flip of the switch drains and filters oil (of course after you’ve let it cool) into a sealed plastic container for storage. Excluding the easily removable heating unit, everything else can go into the dishwasher for cleaning.

It has… a 2.65 lb food capacity, a 3.5 liter oil capacity and includes a two position basket (1 position for frying and one for draining). It has an immersed heating element and (of course) an adjustable thermostat. 1,700 Watt heating element.
