So far we're 50/50. When we started 2 years ago I firts slowly eliminated all the gluten & casein foods in the house, (we ate them) then began substituting with acceptable items - The whole family went on the diet, after awhile I began buying some foods with gluten & casien in them for other family members - things my son wouldn't touch - yogurt, lavash bread etc. This was pretty successful. Ice cream was next - He is happy so long as he has his own substitute, and it helps that he never really liked icecream, slowly we got to the point of buying milk - He know which milk is his (I write his name on the carton) and doesn't touch the real milk, then bread - as long as I have his bread again he won't touch the other stuff. So after 2 years we are where you are at about 50/50 - Margarine we all use his - it's too hard to keep two different sticks going and know which is which - cakes & cookies etc - we all eat g/f c/f that I bake. Cereals - we eat g/f c/f only - we don't have crackers or pretzels in the house, and so on Sue
