Gluten-Free Tuesday: Teff
Good to see you back. I'm sorry if I am coming off nit-picky here, but there just seems to be a trend in reporting to use information that isn't quite factual to make a point. I'm seeing it from the most small time blogger up to major news outlets. It's disheartening.
I have thought about this 30% number, and yes, there are many people who go without eating whole grains. But to say that 30% of all Americans don't eat any whole grains in a given year is just implausible at best. Whether you like it or not, popcorn is a whole grain. You eat the entire kernel, even if it's Jiffy Pop or sold in tins with caramel coating on it. White flour in a granola bar doesn't nullify the oatmeal in it, and instant oatmeal is still whole grain, even if it's more processed than non-instant oatmeal.
I enjoy reading your blog, Shauna. You provide a lot of good information and some good recipes for the gluten-intolerant community. I don't think you need to resort to hyperbole to make a point.

Shauna, do you ever return to your posts to answer questions? Just wondering. Sometimes it can be interesting to get a discussion going but that's hard to do without input from the author of the post.

Hi,
Maybe someone's already mentioned this, but it's "smörgåsbord". "Bord" is Swedish for "table".

I love my Messermeister knives! Good call on that one. The pasta and oats will make a nice gift for my sister-in-law whose two little boys can't tolerate gluten at all. They beg for pasta all the time.
I was thinking about getting her your book too, but I saw on your blog that you said a lot of the recipes don't really work all that well so I guess I'll just wait until your next book comes out.
