Has anybody had any problems with Barbara's Bakery Puffins cereal. The web site says they are Gluten Free (though the box doesn't). I seem to remember reading that someone had a problem with this product. Any thoughts. Thanks.

I got sick from the Brown Rice Crisps. I read that they don't guarantee gluten-free because of cross-contamination. Seems like some people are ok eating them though.

You do have the possibility of cross contamination due to the fact they make non gluten-free food here. I've had the Hoeny Rice and I've been fine. You just have to make sure you get the Hoeny Rice. The other flavors have oats in them and are not gluten-free.

I had a problem with the Honey Rice Puffins. Right after I ate them, I felt sick to my stomach. Through trial and error, I'm finding that I frequently react to foods made on the same lines or in the same facility as foods containing wheat. Not everyone does, but I seem to. I stay away from such things, generally speaking.

The box of puffins I have says Gluten free on the side panel. I have not had a problem with it. Make sure they box you have says gluten free on it. Not all varties of thier cerals are gluten-free, only the ones that state it on the box. As I recall, the Honey Puffins is gluten-free, but the Cinimon one is NOT as an example.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.
