And Tabitha's Additions, From Other Research Sources:

Rice Dream

Rice

(Gluten free but often dusted with cornstarch, check with manufacturer)

Applesauce

(some varieties contain gluten, Motts is certified GFCF (gluten free casein

free)

I know this is a long, ugly list, but I also have a list of Safe Foods &

Additives. I always try to eat fresh vegetables, and fruits along with meat,

chicken, pork, and fish that are fresh from the butcher without any

seasoning, batter, and/or sauce. I have also rediscovered the Farmers Market for

purchasing fresh and often economical produce. When you first go on a gluten

free diet, you will often feel worse before getting better; this is the bodies

way of removing toxins. A good suggestion for this detoxification period is lots

of rest, water ( to help flush the body), and tender loving care and support

from family members and friends. Also remember when you start eating gluten free

you will really be eating more healthy. You are not getting any of those nasty

additives and flavorings that are not good for us anyway.

Good Luck and God Bless, Lucy Shriver Tabitha Schaffer,
