No Pain, No Grain - Interesting Article from Retail Me Not

For all my fellow gluten-sensitives: Have you ever noticed that you will eat something that was marked 'gluten-free', but still feel the side effects 30 minutes-and hour later.  What the heck is up with that?!  Well, I came across a very interesting article the other day and figured out why that is.  I thought I should share this wealth of knowledge with my GDF family, so I pasted the link below.  There is some really interesting information on what passes for 'gluten-free' in America (and let me tell you, it's upsetting).  It's definitely worth the short read and it's a bonus that it's from one of my favorite vendors, Retail Me Not (love those guys!).

"In Europe, to be certified gluten-free, products must be tested to show that they’re 20 parts per million or less of gluten. But in America, there are no official guidelines, and for people with celiac disease, even the smallest trace of gluten in a product is enough to make them sick."

There are also some suggestions for products that actually do make the cut, which is great.  I've tried almost all of them and I can vouch for their taste.  I especially love the Van's waffles-mmmmm!!  They are a little pricey though, so watch out when you go to the store.  Chex cereal is a happy medium on price and taste, and as always, Bob's Red Mill is a staple in any GF pantry.  Take a quick read and let me know what you guys think below! XOXO!
