It's made with nuts apples and wine. I guess if you peel the apples and use safe nuts and well the wine... I guess a little charoset couldn't hurt. I mean if you spread it on Matzo it should be OK. I'm more worried about the romain lettuce, which we use for Karpas and The Marror - which can't be a good thing? Can it?
Of course I can't remember ever getting sick at or after the Seder, so maybe Hashem has been watching over me.
Anyway I totaly Love charoset and I also plan on making a ton of it.
Happy Preperations!

Hi Chani,

Thanks! *hugs*

I'm sorr Purim was such a disaster My Rav told me never to fast except Tisha B'aav and Yom Kippur. (I stay home and sleep as much as possible...and say Tehillim).

Pesach. Find out if you can eat rice. Tell your Rav what is going on.

Can you have Matzah? Believe it or not...it's GREAT for IBS! So if you can have it...you should be ok.

I'll keep thinking for you...

Btw, how many kids o you have/hold old? PRECIOUS!

Pesach Sameach t you and your mishpacha

Love, Ruchie

PLEASE be careful with mixing supplements with meds. Do NOT figure it is safe because it is herbal! PLEASE call right away and do NOT wait! This could make things worse for you...I say this only because I care...

Peppermint oil...any HFS.

I think someone else already answered the alcohol question?

You CAN have my optimim...and you WILL. TRUST yourself....you have a good head on your shoulders. You're doing great!

Keep well, *hugs*

I sympathize too. I got a decent amount of shalach manot from my friends but I can hardly eat it

As for food, I started a Passover thread in the Recipes section. Check it out for some stuff. And yeah, matzah is great; it's just flour and water!

Good luck with everything

If you use romaine, it's just lettuce, right? So it goes under IF. I think it would be OK. But my family uses freshly ground horseradish, and I have NO idea if that's good or not. Anyone?

Oh no! I spelled your name wrong in my last post. Sorry ChanY

I LOVE that name! What does Chany mean?

I FORGOT Charoses has nuts For me it is the sugar that will be a problem.....

I encourage you to speak to a Rav! I spoke to mine. He told me I can drink AND eat between the cups of wine! I plan to.Still figuring it all out (gluten free IBS, etc...tough stuf!) but I'm going to work with him until we figure it out!

I have t find out about rice. If I could eat rice it would help me tremendously...however...I'm not sure about eatin at someone's Seder?!?!?!

Hatzlacha Rabba to us all...we should all be Matzliach in having a pain-free Seder where we are close to Hashem...next year in Yerushalayim...ok, THIS YEAR!

and what your triggers are! Only you know what you can/can't tolerate. I would think it would be unsafe in general for IBS tho.....

Can you have rice on Pesach? Did your dad the Rav give yo a heter for that or just Gebruchts?

I just keep telling myself it will be okay....deep breaths!

Easy for you to say...you can EAT IT!

I didn't touch our Shaloch Manos. NOT A THING I could eat! Can you imagine?

No sugar or wheat or gluten... (in addition to no dairy, no red meat, no chicken....no cucumbers even)

*sigh*

BUT i am enjoying the GF life! Yummy breads...lots of fruit and veggies B"H I can eat many of them ok, and fish on occasion.

what can I say...it no easy Nisayon...but I'm trying!

No, I didn't ask about rice, because I already know he won't allow it. Matzah will be my new best friend. In Israel last year, as I was schlepping around the country for Pesach, I was carrying a rapidly dwindling box of matzah that started at 1 kilo.

Oh, and I'm working on a more detailed response to YOUR response up above.

It totally slipped my mind that GFs can't do wheat flour. Argh. And considering I'm writing a paper (the one I interviewed you for) about sensitivity to medical conditions, I am coming THIS close to being hypocritical. Sorry!
