Party Cake... Peeps!

I know I promised to be good after I did all those horrible things to my body to get a confirmed diagnosis for my pain. But I was in Wal-Mart last night to do the last of my shopping for my surgery and walked past the Easter candy, because candy, and there were all the Peeps just staring at me. And there were party cake flavored peeps!!! I suddenly had the self control of a toddler and they came home with me.

 

For anyone who has seen these and thought about getting them.

 

They.

Are.

Amazing.

Ummm. thanks for sharing.  Now, I think I have to go shopping. :D

 

I was thinking about trying to make something obnoxious for a desert.  This might do the trick.

Yes. I was shocked. And I also had amazing restraint and didn't eat them all at once. :lol:

Ohhhhhhh....I love Peeps.  There should be no reason why I should because they are sugar rocket fuel BUT I just love biting their little heads off!  :P   I will have to

find these but I can't eat them until Easter......I gave up all candy for Lent.  I am in semi withdrawal from the Ghirardelli squares.  :(

Chocolate isn't candy.

I saw all these, and also a sour watermelon. My youngest loves all things sour, I think I'll get her a pack. I'll pass. I may get a pack of lemonade ones though, those sounded really good. And as usual I'm sure a few packs of the bubblegum ones will end up in the house. :ph34r:

In what universe is chocolate not candy?  :)   Or is this one of those, I call it tonic and you call it soda?

I think she means it's an essential to life substance.

Candy is sugary. I guess I'm weird. I don't like sugary sweet chocolate. Just... ewww! Nope, not a pop vs soda thing. I just don't think chocolate is candy. Hey, I was just trying to help you! :P If I gave up candy, I'd still be eating chocolate. And also, yes, it is essential to life. B)

Well.......I still consider all chocolate in the candy category BUT I agree it is essential to life. No argument there........Ha, Ha!

I still haven't found the Party Cake Peeps!

 

Can someone post a picture of them?

I should have taken a picture of them, I almost did a bunch of times, but I couldn't stop eating them long enough to get one. I found a good picture of them though. This site has a picture of the package and you can see them in the package. They're in blue sugar and have confetti on them. You can't see the deliciousness and awesomeness, but it's there.

The following is the email that I received from the Peep's people today:

 

We offer many gluten free products under the MIKE AND IKE®, HOT TAMALES®, PEEPS®, GOLDENBERG'S® PEANUT CHEWS® and TEENEE BEANEE® brands, and we are in the process of updating package labels to include gluten free statements where appropriate.  Because product formulations can change at any time, we encourage consumers to refer to our package labels for the most up-to-date ingredient and allergen information.  All of our candies that we label as gluten free meet the criteria outlined by the FDA for labeling products as gluten free, and do not contain wheat, rye, barley, oats or crossbreeds of these grains in their manufacture.  The modified food starch used in our candies is corn starch. There is some fructose in corn syrup, which we do use. We do not, however, use high fructose corn syrup. Please be aware, however, that because some of our products may be manufactured and/or packaged in a facility that may also handle non gluten free products, we encourage consumers to read the labels carefully for the most up-to-date ingredient and allergen information.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
