I ordered a bunch of gluten-free products today, and I'm going to a grocery store tonight so I have something to eat. But, no, can't have rye or barley or oats, either.

"Keep plugging along. The finish line is getting closer with every step. When you see it, you won't remember that you are hurting, that anything has gone wrong, or just how slow or fast you are.
You will just know that you are going to finish and that was what you set out to do."
-- Michael Pate, "When Big Boys Tri"
My husband has been off gluten for almost 20 years, he cheats some but really likes rice. He's not a celiac, I don't think you will be able to cheat as much as he does. Anyway, good health food stores have almost everything, it's more expensive, but easy enough to find good stuff. Plus will all the low carb diets, people don't even ask anymore when ordering a burger without a bun. We recently tried some Italian gluten free pasta that was exellent, is was about $8 a box, where most corn/rice pastas are $2, and I think wheat based pastas are $1. Anyway, don't be discouraged, just try to adapt, it's easier then you think.
I get my rice pasta in the Asian foods section of the grocery store, 2 lbs for $1.19.
"Gluten free" is becoming a marketing plus, so you'll see it often on food that never had gluten in the first place. (EnviroKids corn cereal, for example.)
