Hi Lorka,

Where in Southern Ontario? I am in the outskirts of Toronto (Bowmanville).

Hello there!

I am also in Southern Ontario, and would definitely be interested in meeting additional fellow celiacs! I just discovered this site (don't know how I missed it before... ) and am so pleased to finally be able to communicate with others who share this problem.

I was diagnosed as a kid, but back then all we knew to avoid was wheat, rye and barley. We didn't have any information about byproducts. Didn't know malt was a no-no, didn't know about HPP being suspect, caramel colour, etc. etc. I'm still learning - only found out about these issues a couple of years ago when I started surfing the net concerning celiac, so you can imagine my concern now, realizing I've been ingesting this "bad" stuff all these years without realizing it was a problem. I am totally asymptomatic, so it's very hard to avoid "cheating"!

Whether we manage to connect in person or not, it's nice to meet you, and I hope to come here often for information and inspiration!

Hi
I also live in southern ontario, but have a two hour access to Toronto. Am glad to know there is someone closer than Calgary. (There are alot of posts from there.)
this is an amazingly informative and helpful web site.
Have 4 very active children and therefore not much time to meet, but am willing to share ideas.
I am not having that much trouble cooking for my husband and 10 year old son, so I'm a little worried I'm doing something wrong!
Have been feeding my son Corn Pops. He is getting pretty sick of them every morning. Are there any other commercial cereals out there from the local grocery store, or do I need to make a trip somewhere to find breakfast cereal?
Nice to hear from you,
Andie

Wow! What an old thread - I wrote this two years ago!

Nice to 'meet' you, Andie. It's a wealth of info, here.
