Is Backyard Burgers gluten aware??? Do you have a problem there at all?? There is a new one within my "regular" shopping area, so I will try it if it is okay. Let me know!! :)

Well gald you asked, cause now that i think about it Ive not eaten there since going gluten-free myself, but I normaly get there "Low Carb" burger (no bun). I love thier burgers, but the rest of thier food is average for a Fast food place. Usally get 2 of the burgers and a diet soft drink when there. Thier web site says nothing about alergens though. Hmmm this will bear more looking into.

Deb,

My understanding is that Frosty's are gluten free.

Wendy's removed them from the gluten-free foods on their website as they were researching the origin of the malt in the Frosty.

Recently, they placed the Frosty back on the ok list as they determined the source of the malt was corn.

p.s. I will double check....

I have eaten McDonalds fries at the store near my school a couple of times with no reaction. I double checked with the workers that only fries (and hashbrowns i suppose) would go in that fryer. To be honest, I don't trust just that. BUT the fryer for chicken,etc. was on the other side of the room so that was enough to satisfy me that things were not being cross contaminated. I would check that the two fryers are quite separated at every store you go to, just to be sure.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
