Maybe this was already mentioned on this thread (in a rush and can't read the whole thing right now)...but, could soy be a problem for you? I know it is in the tropical source chocolate. I eat their chocolate all the time w/o issue, and I don't think CC should be an issue with their product.

A few weeks ago I tried the gluten-free Tropical Trend Rice Krisps(sp) and had a reaction an hour later. I've been afraid to try it since.

Are the Tropical Trend Rice Krisps made by Tropical Source?

On the package of my Tropical Source chocolate it says, "Tropical Source and Sunspire unite to bring you a chocolate experience that's full of flavor without any dairy or gluten ingredients. These rich, dark chocolate bars are carefully made on dedicated equipment in one of the few chocolate factories that can guarantee you a dairy-free and gluten-free treat."

I've never had a problem with them. I would guess since it's two different chocolate products that it may be the chocolate or another ingredient that they have in common.

As far as the vanilla, it says "pure vanilla extract."

I just got this e-mail from the company:

Hello Carrie,

The Tropical Source Chocolate Bars and baking chips are 100% gluten free and 100% dairy/casein free with no cross contamination issues. I believe this information is on the package.

      What can I substitute for almond flour? I plan on not doing the nuts either. I'm allergic to nuts.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests. Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times...

According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.

      I was told it was to see how much damage has been caused. But just told CT with contrast not any other name for it.
