Gift Guide: For Gluten-Free Cooks and Eaters

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.

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".

RossS, popcorn and oatmeal are both considered whole grains. Corn tortilla chips are whole grain. Granola and granola bars contain whole grains. I can imagine that there are people who eat only white bread and white rice, but I just don't believe that 30% of Americans go an entire year without eating popcorn, oatmeal, granola, granola bars, or tortilla chips (to name just a few popular foods that are whole grain).

Hoping the author will pop in with a link to her source if I'm wrong about this.

I had injera years ago in an Ethiopian restaurant and it was ok. Worth trying again.

I too am interested in where you came up with the 30% number in regards to people who never eat whole grains. I'm sure there are some people who eat only refined wheat, rice, oats, etc., but 30% sounds exaggerated. Could you link to the study or survey, please? Thanks!
