I am a mom of a child with both autism and celiac disease. This blog will hopefully help guide others who are new to the GFCF diet. This blog is not meant as the "end all know all" - I am not a doctor or a scientist, I am simply a mom feeding my family. We do use oats which many celiacs avoid. In addition to gluten and casein, we avoid nitrates and artificial colors and flavors. I also try and limit High Fructose Corn Syrup. We follow the diet as a family - everything in our house is GFCF.

I tried a new GF Spaghetti
Super Target had a new rice spaghetti - the brand was Mrs. Leepers. We are very happy with the Tinkyada brand, but it never hurts to discover a new one. So I bought one package and tried it last night. When I first opened the package I was optomistic - it was thinner than Tinkyada - maybe it would be more like Angel Hair - which was my favorite preGFCF. But it broke up when cooked and was bland tasting. It wasn't terrible like some of the corn ones we tried in the past - if was at least edible - if I couldn't get Tinkyada I would consider buying it again - but for my family, Tinkyada still rules.
