I am that 5% :angry: And the rest, well…they do shove all sorts into snacks these days, so avoiding gluten probably is good for them :thinking:

Real sorry to hear you’re gluten intolerant. But gluten is and will be totally harmless to the other 95%.

Yes you could be right…Its a recent thing with me though…also eggs and chicken adversely affect me. Soon I’ll be eating nothing but gruel and avocado :frowning:

… careful, go easy on the gruel, may contain cereals.

I think nuts are good.

Pumpkin seeds are gluten-free. Put a couple of handfuls in a hot pan and toss.

Absolutely delish.

I did that one after SilverTabby posted her idea on here a wee while ago. I wasn’t that fussed about them, to be honest. :woman_shrugging: maybe I did it wrong :frowning:

That’s a brilliant list, Omah, thanks…worth printing out I think. Mostly I’m ok if I check the labels and buy the same/similar stuff. Eating fresh, not processed, helps enormously too! :+1:

I’ve not eaten crisps for years!
I loved scrunching cheese and onion crisps into a fruit T cake, with cheddar cheese. Sheer heaven! :yellow_heart:

I once went into a sandwich shop in those days and asked for a fruit T cake, buttered with cheddar cheese (I added the crisps later).
The assistant asked if I was from Yorkshire. She reckoned it was a Yorkshire thing to have the T cake with cheese…
I lived in Donny for a time, but wasn’t into the T cake and cheese thing then. I often wondered if it was Yorkshire thing.

Maybe someone knows? :slightly_smiling_face:

Random (mildly off topic, sorry Omah) Did anyone put their empty crisp packets in a warm oven to shrink them to miniature size? They were so cute…I made a few key rings with mine, back in the day.

Sounds lovely though…we have crisp butties up here. (Or a roll & crisps, if feeling posh)

Probably from Jackie magazine or something…I was about 14 or 15 when I did it… :woman_shrugging:

I’d never heard of the practice but I’d guess that it originated from the popular “Shrinky Dinks” craft of the 1980’s … :slightly_smiling_face:

I don’t think I’ll try it in my home … :081:
