Guest guest Posted January 5, 2006 Report Share Posted January 5, 2006 Woo hoo! Your big entrance into the world of competitive eating - which is now considered a sport by some and is shown on ESPN! I catch DH watching it from time to time and it makes my stomach churn - and makes me laugh too. Especially when they interview them like serious athletes about their tactics. Anyway - here is a link to a great article about celiac - the most informative one in plain English that I've seen in a very long time. At the end there is a section with "quick facts" about celiac. You can probably pull out some good stats to reel off from there. Quick and easy soundbites are the way to go - I always tell people that: * 1 in 133 people have it * 1 in 4 caucasians have the gene (lower frequency but still common in other ethnicities) * and that 1/3 of people with IBS are thought to be undiagnosed celiacs. That brings home how common it is. Then I mention that it's not just bread, but anything with any ingredient derived from WBRO - I use Rice Krispies and malt flavoring and restaurant meats marinated in soy sauce as examples. http://www.philly.com/mld/inquirer/living/health/13543205.htm --Trudy San , CA "People who believe in absurdities will eventually commit atrocities." ~Voltaire -------------- Original message -------------- Hello Everybody,I am competing, first, because I love to eat, but second, to raise awareness for Celiac.Wish me luck!paulP.S. If you have any facts and figures about Celiac, you think I should mention on the air, please let me know. I have a few tidbits, but it never hurts to have more info.

I called in under the stage name "Glutenless Pete" and explained what Celiac disease was, and how I wanted to raise awareness during this contest that draws 20,000 people to Philadlephia's Wachovia Center. The name "Glutenless Pete" is a take off of the Simpsons episode where Homer sues an all you can eat restaurant for kicking him out. He's awarded a job as the restaurant's mascot named "Bottomless Pete".After asking me if I was "coming in to eat doughnuts" (jokingly) host Angelo Cataldi said he "admired a man with a cause" and said he'd like to have me come in. Co-host Al ti chimed in saying that he had just read an article about Celiac the other day.So, I'm headed in to the studio on Tuesday 1/10 at 6:30 AM to eat a 48 oz steak on the air.If you are in the Philly area, listen at 610 AM on your radio. You can also listen live, or check out the recap, after I'm done at, http://www.610wip.comWish me luck!paulP.S. If you have any facts and figures about Celiac, you think I should mention on the air, please let me know. I have a few tidbits, but it never hurts to have more info.

Or will they have the chef work with you? > > Cheryl in Colorado Generally speaking, wings *should* be gluten-free. It's the sauces which may or may not contain other stuff. Buffalo wings are roasted, then served with sauce on the side. I have no idea how the contest will do it, but if they use the traditional Buffalo Wing recipe with the Texas Pete sauce, it's all GF. ygg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 Yup, 1 in 133 people in america have it, but 97% of those people have yet to be diagnosed. I would also mention Dermatitis Herpetiformis (DH) as a skin manifestion of celiac. and how many doctors just label the rash eczema(sp?). so people with un-dx'd DH may live with outbreaks for years rubbing steroidal creams on them. When in fact it could clear up with just a change in the diet, nevermind all the other health issues associated with un-dx'd celiac. Good luck with the steak! My husband always teases me about steak and how i " can demolish a 48oz prime rib in 2.2 " HA! never tried, but i might be able to given the chance!! Good luck with your chance!

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 Just make sure they let you cut it up before the timer starts! It would take me 10 minutes to cut a steak that size up Good luck, we'll be rooting for you.
