Chobani Flips


Adalaide

Recommended Posts

We have a Smith's store by me that has a Free Friday download every week. Which means once a week they have a coupon I can get for a free something. Last week it was for Chobani Flips, and I was pretty excited since I love Chobani. I was less excited when I saw the run with wheat warning on the package. I bought one without gluten ingredients just in case then let it sit in my fridge from Friday until yesterday and finally called the company. I wasn't letting it go without a fight.

 

I didn't ask them to tell me it was okay to eat, I know better than to ask something so moronic. I asked a simple housekeeping question that I knew should have a simple yes answer. Do they clean thoroughly between runs of different flips products. She was sure they did, but put me on hold to double check and came back confirming that yes they do. I knew it was still a risk because no company is ever perfect, but I ate it anyway. I've always ended up with nearly immediate symptoms when I've gotten hit, it takes less than 30 minutes for me to need a bathroom. It's tomorrow and I still feel fine. So, I will say that this is something that doesn't necessarily have to be avoided if someone doesn't want to. Of course, eat at your own risk because my experience may not be your experience.

:lol:Hi Adalaide,

 

I tried Mueller's gluten-free pasta.  Cooked it exactly per the package instructions.  It stunk, was harder than a rock.  Even my dog and part time dog wouldn't eat it.  Sorry you got sick.

Sorry if I wasn't clear. My point when mentioning how long it takes me to get sick was to make it perfectly clear that by now I would know if it was contaminated. It wasn't. I feel great, didn't get sick at all. I will continue to enjoy Chobani Flips when I find them on sale because it was super delicious.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
