Meet Nima, the Adorable Little Device That’ll Test Your Food for Gluten

Jan 06, 2017

Here at CES 2017, there’s a lot of tech that’s trying to be the next big thing (like Samsung’s new QLED TV. WHAT?!). We’re at the end of day one, but we’re calling it: The Nima Sensor is hands down one of the coolest things we’ve seen this year. This little gadget isn’t just adorable — it’s potentially life saving too.

This portable little device will actually test your food for even trace amounts of gluten — 20 parts per million or the US FDA standard for gluten-free, to be exact. For anyone with a gluten-intolerance or Celiac’s, this device might just be a life-saver. And the makers aren’t just stopping at gluten. They’re rolling out peanut testing later in 2017 and are also developing a test for dairy and tree nuts as well. Folks everywhere with allergies, rejoice!

All you have to do is feed a pea-sized amount of your food into Nima’s one-time use test capsule. Then, insert the capsule into the device, turn it on and, using their custom technology, the Nima will test your food for gluten. These little capsules are definitely where the magic happens: They’re essentially mini chemistry labs that contain a testing strip and a small amount of Nima’s custom antigen-based testing fluid.

When testing is done, it’ll either show a smiley face if the food is gluten-free.

Otherwise, if gluten is detected, a wheat symbol will appear on the screen. It’s that easy.

And the best part is the Nima has a corresponding app that stores the info of all the foods you test. The app also connects you to a community of fellow food testers whose tests you can access, so you know which dishes at which restaurants are safe to eat and which aren’t. Restaurants are also given a “Nima Score” based on how much gluten is put into their dishes, so it makes restaurant selection a breeze.

RIP Rory Gilmore, You Would’ve Loved These Two “Tortured Poets Department” Songs

If there are two things you can count on, it's that I'm always thinking about Gilmore Girls and I'm always listening to Taylor Swift. As soon as I pressed play on The Tortured Poets Department, I could tell this album would resonate with so many experiences I had a child and a teenager. I've always been imaginative (and, admittedly, a bit spacey), and to this day, I never leave home without a book.

I've built thousands of imaginary worlds and crafted endless stories, but have always had difficulty keeping up with real-world relationships. So, needless to say, when I listened to Taylor Swift's new album and heard "I Hate It Here" and "The Bolter," I felt seen. I also realized these two songs would speak to Rory Gilmore in the same way!

Rory Gilmore Would Love "I Hate It Here" By Taylor Swift...

Image via Warner Bros. TV

"I Hate It Here" totally showcases Taylor Swift's ability to express raw emotions, and it also perfectly captures Rory Gilmore's struggles during certain periods of her life. The lyrics reflect frustration and dissatisfaction we can all feel sometimes (I know I've definitely felt them), and while Rory and Taylor's dreams in and of themselves are different, they both want to leave their small towns to achieve them. Whether it's feeling overwhelmed by expectations or facing setbacks in her career in Gilmore Girls season 5, Rory has moments throughout the series where she feels a bit trapped.

But even more than the physical meaning of the song is the imaginary one. Taylor sings about creating worlds in her mind and diving into books to escape the mundane. Rory reads more than any fictional character I've ever seen before because she also craves that escapism! The lyrics of "I Hate It Here" resonate with Rory when she wants to live different lives, and it encapsulates the moments when she struggles or questions her decisions — relatable!

...And She'd Feel Attacked By "The Bolter" By Taylor Swift

Image via Warner Bros. TV

TBH, I'm half convinced "The Bolter" is referencing Amy March (after all, Amy has been "reviled" by readers for hundreds of years, and she "almost drowned...in frigid water" like Taylor sings), which is just another literary reference Rory would pick up on.

In "The Bolter," Taylor Swift captures the essence of a woman constantly seeking adventure and change, just like Rory Gilmore, and it's all about the idea of a restless spirit. While the lyrics can be taken from a hypothetical standpoint (feeling trapped by relationships or other people's expectations), we can also talk about it literally considering Rory physically runs away from Jess.

Rory might desire love, but the idea of it also scares her — two facts that don't cancel each other out! Just like Taylor Swift, I think Rory's thrilled by the idea of escape simply because she's so risk averse in other areas of her life. Once again, I say, relatable!!

"The Bolter" and "I Hate It Here" are both incredibly engaging songs because they highlight just how complex we are as humans — both in the ways we relate to ourselves and other people. And they're just two Taylor Swift songs Rory would definitely add to her playlist.

15 Gluten-Free And Paleo Easter Brunch Ideas Everyone Will Love

Holidays don't have to be a pain when it comes to special diets. Nowadays there are plenty of options out there that everyone can safely enjoy stuffing their faces with. These gluten-free and paleo Easter brunch ideas can be served any time of year. Whether you avoid the tricky protein (and grains in general) 100 percent of the time or not, there's a recipe here to satisfy every palate.

Twice-Baked Sweet Potato Egg Boat

Roasted sweet potatoes, eggs, and the toppings of your choice (bacon and avocado, for example) create a hearty base for your day. Plus the flavor combo of the sweet potatoes with the salty bacon and savory eggs will have you coming back for seconds. (via Brit + Co)

Hashbrown Egg Cups

The less-than-great news? Opt for only shredded sweet potatoes in this dish to keep it paleo and GF. The definitely-great news? You can still stuff with all your favorite veggies, meats, and seasonings. (via Siriously Deliciousby Siri Daly / Time Inc., Books)

Baked Eggs in Avocado

Aside from the fact that avocados are just downright tasty, once you take the pit out, they have the perfect space for an egg to fit right in. Top with tomatoes, salt and pepper, and herbs for an easy — and healthy — breakfast in bed. (via Feel Good Foodie)

3-Ingredient Protein Pancakes

Use a paleo-friendly protein powder with an egg-white or collagen base, beaten eggs, and a banana to form a stack of these paleo pancakes. Garnish with a slather or coconut cream and arrange some berries on top with a pretty pattern. (via Brit + Co)

Pressure-Cooked Ramekin Eggs

Swap out heavy cream for coconut cream, and you can pressure cook your way to an indulgent egg breakfast loaded with mushrooms. Serve it alongside some paleo toast, of course. (via Brit + Co)

Green Egg Shakshuka

Getting a balanced selection of veggies and eggs on the table has never been easier. Keep it paleo and GF by cooking the greens in ghee over butter and serving it with toasted paleo bread. (via Brit + Co)

Spring Chicken Salad

Chicken, potatoes, and greens are always a choice grouping, no matter the occasion. Here, the addition of a pesto dressing transforms them into a vibrantly flavored dish that's unlike anything you've tasted. (via Brit + Co)

Halibut en Papillote

Made with halibut, shiitake mushrooms, and a touch of sesame oil, this homemade fish dish is sure to delight. (via The Clean Plate: Eat, Reset, Heal/by Gwyneth Paltrow)

Pesto Zucchini Noodles

Arugula-laced pesto is nestled inside delightful zoodles (click here for our zoodle how-to!), but it doesn’t stop there. Asparagus makes this Easter brunch idea a true celebration of spring. (via Brit + Co)

Paleo Waffles

Don’t forget the nest of bacon and “cotton” poached egg to complete your adorable bunny-shaped paleo waffles. (via Brit + Co)

Paleo Shepherd’s Pie

No white potatoes, no problem. Get the taste and “feel” of mashed potatoes using cauliflower! (via Brit + Co)

Hash Brown Egg Nests

You can make some nests at the same time that the birds are making theirs! All you need to make this recipe is potatoes (we're swapping for sweet potatoes to keep it paleo), eggs, and cheese. Those happen to be three of our favorite foods anyway, so putting them together makes this dish even tastier! (via Feel Good Foodie)

Paleo Almond Joys

Don’t let being paleo suck the joy out of a candy-laden holiday. Serve a big batch of these for a crowd. (via Brit + Co)

Salmon Avocado Salad

You might be shocked by just how fast this sumptuous salad comes together. Serve it over butter lettuce cups. (via The Whole Smiths Good Food Cookbookby Michelle Smith)

Millet Breakfast Cereal

Some people are divided about whether or not pseudo-grains like millet (which is technically a seed) should be consumed on a paleo diet. However, this gluten-free ingredient can be steamed up like rice for a comforting hot cereal option. (via Brit + Co)

Book Nooks Are The Trendiest Bathroom Decor Ideas Right Now

Bathroom decor is having a moment, becoming more than just a place to wipe and wash. Instead, they're turning into what some are calling spathrooms with big bathtubs, open showers, saunas, and spa-like amenities, according to 2024 design trend report by Cosentino. One trend putting the "room" in bathroom is the bathroom library, which fits right into the vintage, grandmillennial and cottagecore trends, with built-in shelves above vanities, around commodes, and front and center to warm up a bathroom vibe. Here's the skinny on these neat nooks and how you can make one yourself!

Design: De Rosee Salon | Photo: Astrid Templier

But some of us at here aren't so sure. What do you think? For me, I'm a bath lover and reader, so the combo is definitely appealing. However, I definitely would worry about moisture ruining my precious novels, or guests lingering in the bathroom too long, wrapped up in a good book. But those cons aside, I dig the idea of a book nook in my bathroom, especially for my kiddo who loves when I read to her in the bath, and is even now a voracious reader herself.
