We had and issue with nuts lately.  We started REALLY looking at the labeling but we figured - They are nuts, how could there be a problem, but I still got sick after eating them.  My wife started making calls - a lot of calls - and she wasn't getting many answers.

Well, we finally got some answers (took about 3 weeks).  Here is what we found -

Surratefarms.com has Pecans that are Gluten Free.  The grower is in Texas and they gave me Surratefarms.  There is no gluten in their plant - we bought some and when they come in, we will see!

Fisher Nuts (all of them) are processed in a facilities that processes wheat or Gluten

Emerald Nuts (all of them) are processed in a facilities that processes wheat or Gluten

Planters (all of them) are processed in a facilities that processes wheat or Gluten

All of them indicated how careful and how ... and there shouldn't be a problem ... with the way I feel - sometimes good, sometimes not so good - off my list.

Wonderful almonds, Wonderful Pistachios, Blue Diamond almonds, Hammonds Black Walnuts are all packaged in Gluten Free facilities.

A lot of members swear by nuts.com I have issues with peanuts so that's a no go for me. I found TraderJoe's seems safe and they claim is alright. I mostly use Open Original Shared Link

^I go though a 25lb box in about 2-3 months normally >.> stuffs my substance .

Nuts.com is one of the best suppliers of really good nuts that are certified gluten-free. 

I will add that Planters does a very good job at making sure they are not cc'd.  I am very, very sensitive and do have Planters nuts on occasion and have never gotten even remotely sick from them.  I have been gluten-free for 12 years now and pretty sure that if they were not safe for us, I would have been sick by now. Planters is a Kraft food and they are very up front with their information. Just because something is processed in the same facility as wheat does in no way mean it is not safe to eat.

Are you sure that the problem is gluten or wheat? Maybe you have developed an allergy to nuts.

I used to love cashews but I can't eat them anymore. One day I could eat them but the next time, I couldn't (it didn't matter what brand it was.  :(

Not allergic to nuts.  When I called the companies, they told me that they are either not Gluten Free of are processed in a shared facility.

I will look into Nuts.com

Went to nuts.com  - their pecans are $14.99 lbs.  Surratefarms.com is $25.00 for 2 lbs.  Did not look into any differences in shipping.

You gotta shop around a lot unless you have much deeper pockets than I do.

      Severe severe mouth pain

      Hi Charlie, You sound like you have been having a rough time of it. Coeliac disease can cause a multitude of skin, mouth and throat problems. Mouth ulcers and enamel defects are well known but other oral conditions are also more common in people with coeliac disease: burning tongue, inflamed and swollen tongue, difficulty swallowing, redness and crusting...

      Hi Charlie, You sound like you have been having a rough time of it. Coeliac disease can cause a multitude of skin, mouth and throat problems. Mouth ulcers and enamel defects are well known but other oral conditions are also more common in people with coeliac disease: burning tongue, inflamed and swollen tongue, difficulty swallowing, redness and crusting in the mouth corners, and dry mouth to name but some. The link below is for paediatric dentistry but it applies to adults too.  Have you had follow up for you coeliac disease to check that your anti-tTG2 antibodies levels have come down? Are you certain that you not being exposed to significant amounts of gluten? Are you taking a PPI for your Barrett's oesophagus? Signs of changes to the tongue can be caused by nutritional deficiencies, particularly iron, B12 and B9 (folate) deficiency. I would make sure to take a good quality multivitamin every day and make sure to take it with vitamin C containing food - orange juice, broccoli, cabbage etc.  Sebaceous hyperplasia is common in older men and I can't find a link to coeliac disease.   Russ.   Oral Manifestations in Pediatric Patients with Coeliac Disease – A Review Article

      Hi @Charlie1946 You are very welcome.   I agree wholeheartedly with @knitty kitty:  "I wish doctors would check for nutritional deficiencies and gastrointestinal issues before prescribing antidepressants." I had a type of tingling/sometimes pain in my cheek about 2 years after my diagnosis.  I noticed it after standing in cold wind, affecting  me after the event - for example, the evening after standing outside, I would feel either tingling or stabbing pain in my cheek.   I found using a neck roll seemed to help, reducing caffeine, making sure I was well-hydrated, taking B12 and C vitamins and magnesium.  Then when the lockdowns came and I was using a facemask I realised that this pain was almost entirely eliminated by keeping the wind off my face.  I think looking back I was suffering from a type of nerve pain/damage.  At the time read that coeliacs can suffer from nerve damage caused by nutritional deficiencies and inflammation, and there was hope that as bodywide healing took place, following the adoption of a strict gluten free diet and addressing nutritional deficiencies, recovery was possible.   During this time, I used to spend a lot of time outdoors with my then young children, who would be playing in the park, and I'd be sheltering my face with an upturned coat collar, trying to stay our of the cold wind!  It was during this time a number of people with a condition called Trigeminal Neuralgia came up to me and introduced themselves, which looking back was nothing short of miraculous as I live in a pretty sparsely populated rural community and it is quite a rare condition.   I met a number of non-coeliacs who had suffered with this issue  and all bar one found relief in taking medication like amitriptyline which are type of tricyclic anti-depressant.   They were not depressed, here their doctors had prescribed the drugs as pain killers to address nerve pain, hence I mention here.  Nerve pain caused by shingles is often treated with this type of medication in the UK too, so it is definitely worth bearing in mind if standard pain killers like aspirin aren't working.
