The Ten Places Gluten Hides
Upon learning that she had Celiac disease, Miri Pizan was dismayed to discover how little the general public knew about food allergies and set about educating everyone on how to accommodate those with medical food restrictions, to build stronger community bonds. In today’s Travel Gluten-free Podcast, Miri Pizann from the Safely Sated Gluten Free Consulting, joins us as we talk about the ten places gluten hides.

Miri shares with us the challenges she faced while figuring out what was safe to eat after being diagnosed with Celiac and how she came to learn of so many alternative foods that are gluten-free and tasty. In her journey, Gluten-free cookbooks were a major resource that Miri relied on to identify recipes. Listen in as Miri shares with us some of her favorite gluten-free cookbooks.
