The little gluten-free things involve food allergies, plus an update on that guy from North Carolina charged with making regular bread and calling it gluten-free, and a new (and formidable) gluten-free listing from Marzetti!
I remember being a new parent of a celiac child and then getting pregnant with baby #2. When she was born we were very careful about not introducing gluten for the first year…but was that necessary? New information is out on introducing food allergens and that led me to research the latest information on introducing gluten to our children’s diets.
Proposed legislation regarding food allergies at restaurants is encouraging for all people with specialized diets. But will these state-wide bills help customers on a gluten-free diet, since gluten is not considered a top allergen?
A call to action after an alarming report from the Chicago Tribune shows us that companies that make specific gluten-free foods, may actually contain some gluten. What’s more? The report states there are very few recalls and little government oversight into this food safety issue. What can we do?
