I SWEAR I read that the PB cups were gluten-free... but I ate a package the other day and wound up with a migraine. Intially, I was thinking the chocolate - but I made brownies w/ choc. chips and I'm fine... WTH? Any ideas?

I believe Reeses PB cups are gluten free, but there are a couple that have special shapes (like the small holiday bell shapes) that have gluten in them. Did you eat a 'normal' Reeses cup??

Yeah, they were normal. Shoot, I really hoped it wasn't the chocolate!

Can't eat reeses because of soy and the non fat milk powder (I am mildly lactose intolerant and milk powder is too much for me). Found out last christmas that the reese's bells have gluten....the hard way! If you were able to eat chocolate brownies then it must be something else! I like chocolate too...thank goodness for enjoy life chocolate!

...which for some reason is so odd to me. I just make sure to only purchase the "non-holiday-ized" ones (and I haven't had a problem since).

Maybe it wasn't really the peanut butter cups but something else you eat that day or the day before without realizing. If it was just this one time that you had this reaction I'd wait and try them again in a few weeks. I just ate one this morning to see if I have a reaction since I'm one of the lucky super sensitive people.

or perhaps you are having issues with milk or nuts and don't know it yet?? Just a thought.

      Seeking Gluten-Free Advice for My Trip to South Korea!

      Yes, wheat is common in most soy sauces now because it speeds up the fermenting process.

      For 16 years I have relied on the website glutenfreedrugs.com to determine if a pharmaceutical is gluten-free. The website has been down for at least a week. Does anyone have any information about this outage, the status of the website founder and maintainer pharmacist Steven A. Plogsted or a phone number? I did not get a response for my email to glutenfreedrugs@gmail.com in October of 2022. Steven did respond to my emails in 2012. Thanks.

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      By Beverage · Posted

      Sounds like you are in the UK. With blood numbers that high, I thought docs in UK would give an official diagnosis without the biopsy. You should ask about that, so you can get support faster.  I'd try to find and print out anything that supports that in your country, get another appointment and take all of it with you. Even in the US now, some docs are doing this, my 19 year old step granddaughter got an official diagnosis here in US with just blood results a few months ago.

      Is soy sauce in Korea also made from wheat like it usually is in US? I'd be concerned that even if asking about gluten, they would not be aware of or think of some like that.

      Not Sure What to Think

      By trents · Posted

      That's a good idea. It can at least establish the potential for developing celiac disease and can help people decided between a celiac diagnosis and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). And it doesn't require a gluten challenge and can be had without a doctor's prescription.
