Yeah, I have and they're pretty rank. The rice based 'pasta' is better than the corn but not by much. The bread I've found thus far is only okay and has to be toasted not to taste like cardboard. Fresh bakery breads seem to fall apart and taste too sweet for savoury sandwiches. Where did you find these ciabattas? I bought a bunch of different flours and am going to try to make some flat breads. It's next on my list of things to do.
FWIW I thinks it's all a bit dubious. I used to get fed up with yanks shiteing on about their 'allergies', you don't hear that so much now, and why do these afflictions almost exclusively strike down women in the 15-34 demographic?
I normally would have been the same as you. Giving out about people claiming something was wrong with them. Or saying they are allergic to things just because they don't like them. I can tell you this, I love bread and I love baking. I'm not happy about this one bit. I'm actually rather annoyed especially since I've been in and out of doctors for years now with no explanation to why things are wrong, rather 'just take this pill' for the symptoms since they don't know the cause. Here I was eating all healthy with lots of whole grain foods not understanding most were making me sick. The difference is seriously undescribable and I feel like a different person. It has nothing to do with my weight or dieting at all. Perhaps more people are finding out because it's in the news more these days? I never would have thought it was the root of some medical issues for me at all until recently reading about it. I'm actually shocked no doctor ever questioned it but then again, doctors rarely ask about diet unless you are noticeably overweight.
Aye, fair enough. If I ever get around to giving up my other vices and still feel shite I'll check it out. The thought of never having a decent lager again would kill me.
There are probably hundreds upon hundreds of people who are coeliac and don't know it - reading forums etc it seems that doctors never actually suggest people get tested for it, they've had to ask.Perhaps more people are finding out because it's in the news more these days?

The Irish health system is so frustrating - they'd rather give you a prescription than ask about diet or lifestyle, both of which have a HUGE impact on your health. [/endrant]
