Heidi Collins is now anchoring at FOX 9 in the Twin Cities. I chatted with her about celiac disease and settling in Minnesota (including her favorite local restaurants -and where she’s whipping up a fun gluten free dish with an expert chef)!
In the US, we’ve been patiently awaiting the agreement to new voluntary gluten-free labeling…and in Canada– celiacs are fighting to keep proposed labeling laws from being derailed by one heavy-hitting lobby.
Many of us have been there – after a celiac diagnosis, you do your best starting your brand new gluten-free lifestyle and suddenly now you realize you can’t have communion at church.
