October 16, 2014 | 34 Comments

For those of you who don’t read People, US Weekly, Entertainment Weekly, OK, In Touch, Star or follow any of the zillion websites dedicated to our glorious entertainment industry (seriously…how do they all stay in business??), last week Jennifer Lawrence called gluten-free “the new […]

Celiac Disease. It's All in Your Head.

October 13, 2014 | 56 Comments

See what I did there? I wrote the headline to make it look like celiac disease isn’t real when I’m really talking about how celiac affects the brain. This way, we’ll see if anybody reacts to just reading the headline. I know…you don’t have […]

I Don't Want Your "Gluten-Friendly" Wheat!

October 9, 2014 | 85 Comments

My question for you this lovely morning is simple. Why do companies who have no vested interest in our health keep coming up with products that they think we need and that can possibly harm us? Do they think we’re that desperate to feel […]

For Those Celiacs Still Struggling, You'll Get There…I Promise.

October 6, 2014 | 77 Comments

I got an email from a fellow celiac recently. Here’s an excerpt of it. It has been a year and a half since I was diagnosed and I am struggling. Some things have gotten better, anxiety is improved, migraines less frequent, there are stretches […]

Gluten Dude Turns 3!!

October 1, 2014 | 55 Comments

Ah…where does the time go? It seems like just yesterday my blog was wearing diapers. And now here we are three years later and my blog is fully potty trained, with still the occasional accident. (You folks are very good at letting me know […]

My Celiac Wife Won't Let Me Eat Gluten…Anywhere

September 26, 2014 | 61 Comments

So I received two emails, about three weeks apart, from a gentleman who is just a tad frustrated with his wife. It seems she will not let him eat gluten. Anywhere. He does not have celiac (or as half internet calls it…celiacs). She does. […]

First things first. Happy Birthday Bruce. 65 years young and still playing 3 hour shows. I ain’t here on business, baby, I’m only here for fun. Ok…moving on. Do you know there is a woman with celiac disease who has supposedly trained her dog […]

Is Heineken Gluten Free? Don't Ask Heineken.

September 18, 2014 | 65 Comments

Usually, simple questions result in simple answers. The answer is either yes or no. That’s really the beauty of yes/no questions. There are only two possible answers. Here…let me give you some examples. Did I sleep well last night? No. Is iOS 8 taking […]

Should We Just Let Our Stubborn Family Members Suffer?

September 16, 2014 | 43 Comments

Folks…going gluten-free is just not that difficult. It really isn’t. Is it limiting? It can be at times. Is it isolating? Only if you let it. Do I enjoy it? Not really. But is it difficult? No. Yet over the years, I’ve received a […]

Don't Fear the Beer!

September 12, 2014 | 27 Comments

Let me be clear. I really like beer. In 2008, I truly did fear A life without beer. Red Bridge was here. But it wasn’t good beer. Bards then drew near. One taste and…oh dear. Then a whisper in my ear “New Planet tastes […]

Who I am. And who I'm not.

I AM someone who's been gluten-free since 2007 due to a diagnosis of severe celiac disease. I'm someone who can steer you in the right direction when it comes to going gluten-free. And I'm someone who will always give you the naked truth about going gluten free.

I AM NOT someone who embraces this gluten-free craziness. I didn’t find freedom, a better life or any of that other crap when I got diagnosed. With all due respect to Hunter S. Thompson, I found fear and loathing of an unknown world. But if I can share my wisdom, tell my stories and make the transition easier on you, I’ve done my job.
