Thanks - I've been to the supermarket this afternoon and bought a packet of gluten-free D'Lush chocolate biscuits on special - as I said earlier, I was trying to get away from chocolate but I don't need to eat them myself. I didn't see the gingernut ones.
What's the betting the gluten-free person doesn't turn up . However, I'm trying to cut down on wheat lately - I've reserved a book called 'Wheat Belly' from the library, and it seems that wheat intolerance could be more of a problem than gluten intolerance, at least for those of us without celiac disease. I heard the author interviewed, and it seems that modern wheat is very different from what our parents and grandparents ate.

I buy an old-fashioned sourdough bread from my local Dutch bakery.I developed a taste for sourdough during years spent in the USA and made it myself for a while.
Contemporary commercial breadbakers force their bread to rise quickly to get greater output of product in a shorter time and appear to be causing tummy problems in older folk.

Our last meeting was hosted by our Japanese member and she served something (I forget its name) that is apparently Japanese. But no sushi! It is certainly a gluten-free idea.

Meringues and macaroons have no flour at all.

With sushi, make sure you get a gf one - not teriyaki chicken, and no mayo.
