I have not tried these or seen them, except my friend posted a pic on FB of her bag & the words on the side that say gluten-free. It appears Pepperidge Farms is making Bake Goldfish Puffs in 3 flavors and they are gluten-free. This is the same friend who told me about the Glutino poptarts so her taste udis have a good track record.

I couldn't find any info on the P farms website so I have no idea of the ingredients or manufacturing practices or GMOs or if they are made from real goldfish!

Vans makes a cheesy gluten-free cracker that tastes like cheez-it's/goldfish. My whole house eats them. Can't keep them in the pantry.

GAH!!! I've been calling local stores and NO ONE HAS ANY! But one guy told me he was going to try to get some and will call me back.

 

Ok, so should I be eating these? Probably not. I don't even know what is in them besides cheese which doesn't agree with me probably. But... omg goldfish! I'm like a 5 year old suddenly. :ph34r:

I found the Vans at Safeway. Was at Whole Foods today and didn't look...if I'd known about the goldfish I would have. Didn't fond anything gluten-free at Target (was looking for goldfish).

We searched for the gluten free goldfish today, nobody in our town carries it BUT the lady in the deli said her sister in law told her they also make a gluten free cookie now. I came home and looked online, can't find evidence of that. I called and the guy I spoke to said the goldfish haven't been offically released yet and he had no idea about the cookie.

I found the goldfish today at Target.  Apparently, they are being released this week or next "Officially".

 

They are tasty but I like the Van's better.  These do not have the same crisp texture that a real goldfish cracker has.  They aren't quite like a cheese curl puffed.  Maybe I can best compare the texture to a vanilla wafer?  Kind of dense.  They are bigger than the standard goldfish so a kid might like that his are bigger than the other kid's.

 

Ingredients are :Corn and more corn, whey & milk parts, canola, cheeses and other stuff not always found in nature.  Do not see any soy or nut.

 

Also bought the Buffalo flavor but haven't opened them yet.

I tried the plain cheese.  And there is Buffalo and Bacon and cheese.

Do you have a Target?  Someone told me that the Targets are supposed all have them out on the shelves by Saturday.  Ours had them out today.

I've never had Van's 'but they look like some gluten free crackers I bought at Sam's' that had a slimy feel in my mouth. :wacko: I've been desperate to find a good cheese cracker. We tried making some (recipe from Nicole Hunn) BUT they only last a couple of days and there is no way i can eat all that before they get soft and yucky.

 

If the puffed goldfish taste like Cheeto's....I'll pass.

Probably more Cheeto than cracker.  You might like the Van's but they have gluten-free oats in them.  So, people new to the gluten-free diet shouldn't eat them for a 6 months to a year (depends on who you ask on that)

So, I finally got someone on the phone at Target who has a clue. (Yeah, I've been harassing them. So?) He says that the delivery is coming in overnight tonight and they are also setting up the display overnight tonight and that they'll have the fish in the morning when the store opens right by the doors. I know what I'm doing tomorrow morning. :D

I would... if I did 6 am! I'm more of a 9 am kind of person though. I'm pretty sure they won't sell out in 3 or 4 hours on a Monday morning so I have time to roll lazily out of bed and mosey on down there. I'll probably only buy them once to be sure I like them and then know I have something I can use as a day snack when I spend whole days up in the city. Probably too many ingredients for my liking to eat more than very occasionally.

I didn't like the buffalo flavor at all! Maybe I don't like buffalo flavor. I never really had anything except chicken with it. The plain cheese was very cheesy and I rather liked them. I'm giving my Buffalo flavor to my son's friend. He can save his $3 and see if he likes them.

      Unsteady in my new diagnosis

      Thanks, yall! The tough part now is figuring out if I’m actually feeling better or is it some form of placebo effect. I do actually feel better but I’m not positive if I may just be gaslighting myself lol

      @drjay in addition to what @trents wrote, I wanted to comment on your statement, "Positive for DQ2 and homozygous for DQB1*02 but negative for DQ8" You don't need DQ2 >and< DQ8 in order to be susceptible to getting celiac. Either one is good enough. DQB1*02 is a specific genetic allele that encodes part of the DQ2 protein. "Homozygous" means two copies of the same allele (the opposite is "heterozygous", where the two copies are different alleles). If you are homozygous for DQB1*02, you couldn't have DQ8. In other words, your genetic test tells you that you definitely have the potential to get celiac.

      @drjay, your mixed test results experience is exceedingly common for someone having been consuming reduced amounts of gluten. A Marsh scale score of 3 indicates "significant villous atrophy" according to a quick google search I did and the biopsy is the gold standard diagnostic test anyway, not the blood antibody testing. It doesn't look like a "total IGA" blood test was ordered and without that we cannot tell if you are IGA deficient. If IGA deficient, other celiac IGA antibody scores, such as the tTG-IGA, cannot be trusted. They will likely be artificially low. And given the fact that there is significant improvement in your symptoms once you went on a strict gluten free diet, there is no doubt in my mind that your doctor's diagnosis of celiac disease is the correct one. By the way, welcome to celiac.com.!

      Unsteady in my new diagnosis

      By drjay · Posted

      About 2 years ago I got a referral to a GI because I was experiencing gut pain, bloating, and some other not so fun symptoms. He scheduled a colonoscopy and that came back fine with the exception of very small healing ulcers in my TI. I have a family history of stomach ulcers so I was prescribed a round of antibiotics and then placed on a PPI w/o an endoscopy to confirm. I think I may have convinced myself it was helping for about a year but I likely just acclimated to how I was feeling. Fast forward to January and my symptoms had gotten to be persistently unbearable and nothing was helping except some minor pressure relief from gasx. I get another appt with the GI and get an endoscopy done. There’s no ulcer so I stop the PPI and we do a SIBO test which comes back negative. The Dr orders a Labcorp celiac test immediately after he gets the biopsy results w/o the gluten challenge thing. I already don’t consume much if any because I suspected I may be sensitive to  gluten.  They grade the biopsy Marsh class 3 but my lab tests are weird and listed below IgA 11 (weak positive is 19) IgG 5 (weak positive is 19) tTG IgA 3 (weak positive 4) Positive for DQ2 and homozygous for DQB1*02 but negative for DQ8 My GI did diagnose as Celiac but the blood test makes me unsure. Even though I’ve been unsure, I immediately went on a strict gluten free diet. Yesterday makes 12 days and it was the first day with a normal bowel movement in last several weeks. Anyone have similar experience?
