[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parent of celiac back.

[b]Having a totally GF kitchen actually makes life easier. [/b] It's why our whole house went GF rather than just our celiac kid.  It took time and effort to go through our pantry and get rid of all the sneaky gluten, but once it was done it meant I didn't need to think about it and could just feed everybody.  Since everything in the house was safe I didn't have to waste any mental energy on what to feed my kid or monitoring what she took out of the pantry.  If it's in our house and kid appropriate she can have it.  So beer gets an exception to our 'gluten free house' because she's not going to accidentally get glutened by it. (She's still young enough I'm not worried about her sneaking alcohol.)

I get why it's tough for OP because she has picky kids who apparently only like particular foods.  But if she can just figure out the naturally GF foods her kids like to eat, then this trip (at least the food part) and meals all together as a family become no big deal. [/quote]

OK But you made that decision for yourself. It made YOUR life easier. But it did not make it easier for OP travelling with kids to a remote location with her kids and calling it a vacation.[/quote]
