just curious because my dad bought some tastee apples caramel apples plain and looked on the back and they looked safe to me, well maybe a hour or so after my tummy kinda felt bloated and felt just icky after eating that. Been feeling kinda bleh ever since Friday of last week after purchasing gluten free Cheerios and Monday purchasing gluten free Chex granola and felt really bloated but didn't really look bloated just felt bloated but on Thursday I looked bloated after eating the Chex granola. Felt a little bit better today, my dinner was gluten free and I made sure it wasn't. Only had brown sugar garlic steak cocoa powder so everything was gluten free. After having that I ate my Carmel Apple felt okay until an hour or so after and now I'm feeling bloated just feel weird and just not okay. The website says they are gluten free, but ppl are saying that they found wheat on the we site ingredients but I didn't find that. What do you guys think?

I don't have a label to read, so I can only say most times caramel apples (plain) don't have gluten.

I have just read an article on caramel apples being a risk for Listeria.  The apple juice released from being pierced with the stick can grow the bacteria under the layer of caramel. (even refrigerated caramel apples grew ~lesser amount of~ bacteria.  So caramel apples should be fresh to be safe.

My state is currently involved in a recall for caramel apples for Listeria and spinach for salmonella.

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
