So my very good friend Becki emails me this news story today…..
McDonald’s sued for having milk, wheat in fries-WSJ
Yeah…the one sacred food that I thought was safe with my Celiac Disease is no longer safe…
What a bummer.
I gave up alot when I was diagnoses, and I don’t have a severe form of the condition and can often cheat, but with McDonald’s I never had to think twice about them because they were potatoes and I can have them…
I guess now when I get the flare ups I don’t even have a “safe food”…
I’m bummed….
Until next time…

My father just sent me your comment about McDonald’s fries and Celiac. I was diagnosed a few years ago with it and seem to have traced it to my mother’s side of the family. My great grandfather was Conrad Jacobson from Oregon. Could there be a relation?
I know my doctor told me that Celiac tends to run in Nordic family lines, so even if we’re not related directly related, the disease could be.
