[quote=Anonymous]I love bread too but it seriously HATES me. Gluten affects me in my chest. Kind of like an asthma attack with shallow breathing but chest tightness that can get so painful it's unreal. So after years of pain I wrote down everything I ate and what to avoid to stop an episode from happening. My list is very long. No more 3 Musketeer candy. EVER. Plain chocolate candy is okay.
I no longer eat out. No longer eat anything, I mean NOTHING after 6pm, unless it's tested by me to be gluten free. No liquor. 
Not all gluten free tastes good. I have tried the breads, no. Nasty. Toasting it doesn't make it taste good so I gave up on that.
I still eat regular bread but only the minimal. No french bread, no biscuits, no dinner rolls, none of that. Pasta is iffy. Some are gluten free, most aren't. You have to wing it to find out. Sucks. Pie crust ? No. But I did try the Keebler shortbread crust and it did not trigger.
Gluten free Oreos are very good and pass the test. I found Magnolia gluten free lemon pound cake mix at Sam's Club. OMG good. Gluten free instant Quaker oatmeal is great. I tried plain Eggo waffles with cinnamon sugar yesterday. MAJOR trigger. No hurt. WOO HOO. Maybe a fluke. Gluten free rice makes eating enjoyable again. It is gluten free.
Also when the air quality is bad or the pollen count is high I watch what I eat. It does affect me. 
Gluten should never have been put into the food supply. Binder my ass. It's poison.
It's a hit and miss kind of thing. I cannot live without Benadryl. It's the only thing that helps me. 
Good luck. It's an experiment for life.[/quote]
