Can anybody recommend to me the best place to buy these? Do you buy online or in a grocery store? Thanks in advance.

I bought them at " health food stores", groceries and Target. I have seen some coconut ones, too.

Mine has them with the PB .

Not as many flavors as Whole Foods or Natural Grocers.

I'm not really concerned about variety. The main thing is I want to find ones that aren't too expensive.

Individual servings of anything are going to be expensive.  They sell tiny plastic containers with snap on lids, I am sure some of those would be suitable for nut butters.

Every local store here sells the Justin's individual packets but they vary in price from about 80 cents up to nearly $2. I agree with Laura, if you are able to plan ahead and know you will be out for a meal and will want some just buy a regular jar and put some in a small container. It's what I do when I can plan ahead. I only buy the individual packets when I need to eat and am out of the house for an extended time unplanned.

I wouldn't mind buying a few for 80 cents each. We live in a lower cost of living area so I wouldn't be surprised if I could find them at the lower price. I'll stop at Target today and check.

 

I mainly want them for those unplanned times where I end up out and about and want something to spread on my apple or rice cake.

Ah, small town challenges. I didn't find Justin's nut butters, but Target did have GoPicnic's so I picked up some, picked up some Planter's nut packets, some applesauce, etc. and made up a car snack kit. I also made some vegan gluten free jerky in the health food store and tossed it in.

 

I need to go up to Kalamazoo area for a FedEx package though, so I will probably stop in and see if their health food store has it.

 

The only nut butters in packets that our health food store had, was some really fancy expensive ones with no peanut butter option.

Skippy or Jif or both? Have the little PB cups.

Can you eat Nutella?  They have some smaller sized ones and it doesn't need to be refrigerated.  They do have some travel packs with breadsticks or something in them that I'm assuming are not gluten-free so watch for those.

I don't eat Jif or Nutella. 

 

Anyway, I went to the health food store in Kalamazoo and they ended up having a nice selection of Justin's nut butter packets. And the per packet price (for the 6 packs) was 58 cents a packet. Not bad at all! I ended up getting 3 boxes with 6 packets per box. That should last awhile. I now have a very nice survival kit for the car and I was able to have a nice little supper while the kids were eating Subway. :)

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      My genetic test results have arrived - I’m homozygous for DQB1*02, meaning I have HLA-DQ2. I’ve read that this is one of the genes most strongly associated with celiac disease, and my symptoms are very clear. I’m relieved that the results finally arrived, as I was getting quite worried since my symptoms have been getting worse. Next step, blood test. What do these results imply? What should I tell my family? I’m concerned that this genetic predisposition might also affect other family members.
