Gorgonzola Cheese?

I'm confused - I thought I'd learned that Gorgonzola was not safe to eat because of how it was aged (on bread?).  But a restaurant I frequently go to - one that has very comforting gluten-free practices, and seems very knowledgeable -- has gorgonzola as an option on their gluten free pizza.  I've never asked them, but can that be right?

 

I know I initially avoided blue cheese for the same reason, but then learned that most of the commercially available blue cheese in the US is safe (is that true?) and have been eating it with no incident.  Is it the same for gorgonzola?  I do love my gorgonzola (or used to) and it would be great if I could have it again.

 

Does anyone know?  I did a search here and found mostly older posts that seemed unsure, so I thought there might have been new research.

 

Thanks.

Yum!  LOVE gorgonzola (it is blue cheese).  Trying to incorporate it into my dinner party Sat night. Thinking maybe in little stuffed tomatoes?  Maybe just crumbles on the antipasto plate?

 

 

good explanation

Great, Kareng - as always, thank you!

 

I guess I didn't realize Gorgonzola was just a form of blue cheese and would be considered safe like blue cheese is.

 

I know what I'm ordering there next time --

Just a fancy name for a fancier blue cheese... haha.  Now I want some steak gorgonzola alfredo.  I better get on it in the kitchen soon!

      Toddler recently diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes and need help understanding coeliac screening test results

      By mytype1diabetes · Posted

      Thanks for this Wends and appreciate your insights! I'm not sure what you mean by "Your toddler is unlikely igA deficient with a titer of 22, as a positive test." ? I had a look at Dr Bernstein's work and we've definitely noticed that on lower carb days her blood glucose levels are much easier to manage. Our nutritionist advised against a low carb diet for toddlers as they said young children, unlike adults, rely on carbs for their growth and development. What's your view on this? Regarding malabsorption - it's so hard to know what's "normal". My daughter's poos have always been on the softer side as she's breastfed and we eat very healthily. I've booked an appointment with our GP and will take some photos!

      Thank you all for your kind wishes, it means so much. The information you've all shared has been so useful. We have a great diabetes team and trust the consultants decision to wait a few months to repeat the blood test. We also don't want to put her through any more tests than she needs as it's so tough on her and us! It feels unbearable waiting when she has some unexplained symptoms and as her mum I want to make sure we're doing everything we can to keep her healthy. That's interesting re: iron levels. I hadn't thought about that but I'm pretty sure this would've been checked as she was in hospital with DKA and they did lots of tests. I have requested a copy of her results.

      Pepsid alternative

      It seems crazy to me that even when you call a manufacturer they can't, in this day and age, answer the simple question about what exactly is in their product!!

      Pepsid alternative

      Thank you very much for your response. Since I got this advice I called Pepsid manufacturer and they could not give a definite answer. Basically,  there is no final testing and they do not guarantee anything. So I went and got farmotidine from Wagmans that was marked gluten-free and also our pediatrician gave us a prescription for farmotidine that was also gluten-free. So there are other options there thankfully. In case someone will come across of this dilemma.
