Already Prepared gluten-free Meals On Long Island

Today I had a consultation with a Weight loss counselor/nutritionist here on Long Island.

Her name is Linda Fiverson and she is very knowlegeable in Celiac disease and Colitis.

She has developed her own line of gluten-free, sugar free and preservative free foods which she sells out of her office in Woodbury, NY.

She makes gluten-free blintzes, muffins, breads, pancakes, cheesecakes, soups, squash fries, souffles, cookies & cakes.

She also has steak, chicken, turkey, veal, and seafood entrees.

What I have eaten so far has be great and its low in fat and calories too.

All items come frozen. You just need to heat it up in the microwave.

You can go into her office and buy her food without having a consultation with her. I chose to meet with her to discus my weight gain issues since going gluten-free two years ago. I came out feeling more confident in my food choices.

I just wanted to pass this along to my fellow Long Island Celiacs. This truly was a great find for me.

BTW Newsday runs a five dollar coupon every WED in the food section (This is how I learned about Her). On Saturdays it is buy on get one 50% off.

Her address and phone are:

Linda Fiverson

8243 Jericho Turnpike

Woodbury, NY 11797

516-692-5100

If you are in the area check out this great food opportunity.

      Bad Reaction To Regular Ruffles Cheddar and Sour Cream

      By Tanner L · Posted

      Yes and variations in their sources for natural and artificial flavors could be the culprit as well.  I might be on the more sensitive side, but I do fine with McDonald's fries and burgers if I take the bun off, and other foods that have certified gluten free ingredients and only cross contamination risk preventing the gluten-free certification.

      Bad Reaction To Regular Ruffles Cheddar and Sour Cream

      Yes, the yeast could have been cultured on a wheat substrate. But another batch may use a yeast extract cultured on something else that did not contain gluten. These food companies will switch suppliers according to what is the cheapest source at any given time. I take it you are a pretty sensitive celiac.

      Bad Reaction To Regular Ruffles Cheddar and Sour Cream

      By Tanner L · Posted

      The regular cheddar and sour cream Ruffles have yeast extract, which is probably the source of gluten.  Pinpointing the exact cause of gluten exposure is always tricky, but I've come to learn my initial reaction to gluten compared to the ongoing symptoms that will occur days, weeks, and sometimes months later.

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      By plumbago · Posted

      Yes, that's probably best. (Honestly, that is an extraordinarily high number, I've never seen anything like that. I repeated my blood tests (not taken while pregnant BTW); before giving up cake, pizza, and beer, I wanted to know for sure! You don't wanna mess around with anything while pregnant. Congratulations and best of luck!

      Bad Reaction To Regular Ruffles Cheddar and Sour Cream

      Here are the ingredients listed for the regular sour cream and cheddar Ruffles: Potatoes, Vegetable Oil (Canola, Corn, Soybean, and/or Sunflower Oil), Maltodextrin (Made from Corn), Salt, Whey, Cheddar Cheese (Milk, Cheese Cultures, Salt, Enzymes), Onion Powder, Monosodium Glutamate, Natural and Artificial Flavors, Buttermilk, Sour Cream (Cultured Cream, Skim Milk), Lactose, Butter (Cream, Salt), Sodium Caseinate, Yeast Extract, Citric Acid, Skim Milk, Blue Cheese (Milk, Cheese Cultures, Salt, Enzymes), Lactic Acid, Garlic Powder, Artificial Color (Yellow 6, Yellow 5), Whey Protein Isolate, and Milk Protein Concentrate. CONTAINS MILK INGREDIENTS. Here are the ingredients listed for the baked ones: INGREDIENTS: DRIED POTATOES, CORN STARCH, CORN OIL, SUGAR, MALTODEXTRIN (MADE FROM CORN), SALT, SOY LECITHIN, DEXTROSE, WHEY, WHEY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE, ONION POWDER, CHEDDAR CHEESE (MILK, CHEESE CULTURES, SALT, ENZYMES), MONOSODIUM GLUTAMATE, BLUE CHEESE (MILK, CHEESE CULTURES, SALT, ENZYMES), CITRIC ACID, ARTIFICIAL COLOR (YELLOW 6 LAKE, YELLOW 5 LAKE, YELLOW 5, YELLOW 6), SKIM MILK, NATURAL AND ARTIFICIAL FLAVORS, GARLIC POWDER, LACTIC ACID, DISODIUM INOSINATE, AND DISODIUM GUANYLATE. CONTAINS MILK AND SOY INGREDIENTS   They look a lot the same except for the baked product contains soy. What do you suppose is the hidden source of gluten in the regular Ruffles that is not found in the baked ones? Could you be mistaken in attributing your reaction to the Ruffles? Could it have been from gluten in something else you ate around the same time or even a non-gluten tummy event?
