Once upon a time, some Hidden Valley dressings were off limits. Thanks to an email alert from Triumph Dining I was informed of the safety of Hidden Valley products and the news that Hidden Valley plans to clearly label packaging. That was welcome news because I had mentally written off the company and I see many recipes that call for their products. Even better, Hidden Valley has come up with a helpful website with all kinds of tips for the gluten free community!
The purpose of this website is to provide a communication forum for the gluten free community of the Montgomery (AL) area, which now has a local branch of the Gluten Intolerance Group of North America. Please see the GIG national website (http://www.gluten.net/) for great information on gluten intolerance. You can subscribe to RSS feeds to receive updates to this blog via email (see the sign-up box on the right-hand side) and we also have a Facebook page!

Future of GIG-Montgomery
My postings have slowed down as I have been distracted by all that is involved in moving across the country. GIG-Montgomery has been a labor of love for me and I will always be grateful for the opportunity to begin this chapter with my dear friends, Pam Green and Ruth Givens. At 56 members, I know that we have barely touched the hundreds in the greater Montgomery area who have some form of gluten intolerance. Most do not know it yet, so I encourage everyone to help spread the word about the free CME on celiac available to the medical community.
Once the baton has officially been passed, I will update on the new leadership structure. Hopefully, someone will be able to develop a new website soon and I can forward all who visit this page to the new source of information for GIG-Montgomery. I encourage all who are interested in the future of this organization to attend the April meeting on 4/26 from 6-7 p.m. at Taylor Road Baptist Church (see sidebar).
Hershey’s
I did not know that Hershey’s had updated its gluten free list. Thanks to the “Gluten Free Mom” for the head’s up! And while I think that corporate America only takes such action after doing a cost-benefit analysis, I do agree with her that we should thank them for taking this progressive action. Hershey's website has the updated list; see Gluten Free Mom for this and many other helpful news bits.
