Pasta without Panic: How to Feast Your Way Through Europe Safely

My family is going to Italy! We are so excited, this is a trip we’ve been talking about for years. As soon the opportunity presented itself, I knew exactly who to call: Catalin Varela.

I had the pleasure of meeting Catalin a few years ago. As a young woman living in Italy, she shared her experiences on her social media and website, Celiac in Italy. She started teaching pasta making classes virtually from her kitchen in Italy in fact it’s how I made my first fresh pasta.

Catalin has been helping people plan trips to an Italy: she knows Italy and knows it as someone with Celiac. We only have a short time for this trip and I knew we needed to maximize our time. I wanted a true insider’s recommendations of things to do, places to stay, shop and - of course - where to eat!

On that note, I mentioned how we’ve been thinking about this trip for years. I have places saved, videos bookmarked, lots of lists. One call with Catalin and, let’s just say, there were major revisions. Catalin even de-influenced me about a popular eatery I see constantly on social media that touts a large gluten free menus.

She has joined forces with experts with Celiacs in other European counties: UK, Greece, France and Spain. Together they are Celiacs In Europe and ready to help the community experience travel without fear and experience the food of the country.

If you’re planning a trip, save yourself time and get the real scoop on what to do and safe places to eat.

I've partnered with this exceptional service**; use code Andrea Tucker for 10% off your call with one of these travel experts. Head to www.celiacsineurope.com

⚠️ Important Warning about Popular Food Allergy Candy Brand Yum Earth

Yum Earth is a company that's positioned themselves as a top nine, allergy-free candy company. They offer organic candies, dye-free, top 9 allergen-free candies (free from wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, egg, milk, sesame, fish, and shellfish).

They just changed their packaging to note that wheat starch is used in their processing. This appears on the packaging of their Sour Littles, Gummy Bears, and Jelly Beans.

The company responded that they have always used wheat starch as a processing agent but are only now changing their packaging due to FDA labeling requirements.

Obviously this is raising red flags in the gluten free and food allergy communities both from both a transparency and safety standpoint.

I talk more about this in the latest Gluten Free News podcast, link in first comment.
