Question: bland foods for a tender gut
I'm recovering from food poisoning (ugh!) and my gut is really tender, so I need bland foods for a while. When I was a kid, the thing to eat was saltine crackers. Or toast. Or noodles. Why do all these recovery foods have gluten??
I've been eating bananas, plain rice pasta, and chicken broth (Pacific Foods, labeled gluten-free, although it has onion powder, sigh). I need more ideas, please? What do you eat when you're being kind to a tender gut?
ETA: Wow, thanks for all your good wishes and suggestions!

[cn: a medication suggestion follows; feel free to skip/ignore]
If you're at the stage of post–food poisoning hunger where anything in your stomach starts a flood of acid going, and you don't have those easy gluten carbs to sop it up, over-the-counter antacids may help break that cycle and get you to the point where you can eat regularly again. I mention this only because it was vital to my own food poisoning recovery!
