Looks like just one cookie that is gluten-free?

africanqueen99 Contributor

My council is using the other bakery right now (we do one for three years and then the other for three). I look forward to having them in my house again. When my daughter was a kinder I bought 24 boxes so she could hit her goal! Last year that number was vastly reduced and we didn't eat one cookie.

I wonder if they have any girl scout cookies that are gluten and dairy free?

According to this website - there is just the one gluten-free cookie with these ingredients -

INGREDIENTS

Certified gluten free whole grain oats, semi-sweet chocolate chips (sugar, chocolate liquor, cocoa butter, dextrose, soya lecithin), peanut butter (peanuts, salt), butter (sweet cream, salt), pure cane brown sugar, pure cane sugar, eggs, invert sugar, water and baking soda.

Okay, so none yet. But maybe eventually.

They just said on our local news that we will have 2 gluten-free cookies in our area - the Trio one and an oatmeal raisen one. Both oat based.

There seems to be some confusion. 

This site says Toffee-tastic is gluten free:

We have a couple of different bakers for different areas. Our news just said the toffee were new & the other 2 were gluten-free. The original link looked like just 1 gluten-free cookie. I will buy a box, just to encourage this.

I will buy a box too once I figure out which one. LOL!

I WANT SOME!!!

 

If anyone knows a girl scout who is set up to sell online and can get me the peanut butter, oatmeal, chocolate chip ones able to order.... I will be smitten!  I don't want gross toffee cookies, though.  PM me if you get a link, people!

africanqueen99 Contributor

If you order online through a scout its $10+ shipping (in addition to the $5 cookies). Crazy high!

Our baker is offering the toffee ones and only by jumping through hoops.

Laura,

I would recommend contacting your local council and asking which troop near you has opted to sell gluten-free cookies. You may have to leave your number, but someone from that troop will call you back. They can deliver cookies to you! And you might meet a nice Girl Scout who can supply you for life!

Yesss!!! *Evil Laughter*

Great Idea.  I see our local council starts Jan 16 and is included in selling of the trios cookies, the ones I want.  Will send off a message!

I'm still waiting to find out which girl scouts troops in our area are selling the gluten free cookies.

Have you tried contacting your local Girl Scout council?

LauraTX Rising Star

To find sales in your area check out Open Original Shared Link

 

There is an app called cookie finder that they put out that is the same thing.   You can check that out.  I stopped by a booth sale at a sore near here, the leader said they get the gluten-free cookies in on Wednesday so I gave her my contact info.

I got my gluten-free cookies!  I picked up four bags of the trios cookies... they are really good.  Those are the oatmeal peanut butter chocolate chip ones.  Soft and very good.  They only have oats in them, no other gluten-free flours. I want to try and get a hold of the toffee tastic ones, I had someone tell me they are like pecan sandies, which are a cookie I miss dearly.

I can't believe they haven't found a way to make the Thin Mints gluten free!! I'd buy tons!!

There are a few copycat recipes online... but that may be a dangerous thing to have... lol!

I actually hate thin mints.  I know, I'm weird.  But my husband loves them.

      What about digestive enzymes that I hear help? I take align 5x probiotics daily.

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve.    thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring. Thankfully she has an amazing and experienced pediatrician. And yesss I forgot to mention the poop! She has the weirdest poop issues.    How long did it take y'all to start seeing improvement in symptoms?

      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies.  Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree.  Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant.   That may happen even with endoscopy.  Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.

      here are the lab ranges.  Normal ranges for tissue transglutaminase are: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected normal for endomysial antibody is < 1.5. So she is barely positive but still positive.
