It's hot out there and I was wondering if anyone out there knows of some great tasting ice creams or sorbets that are safe? I'm not a big fan of the coconut milks or soy milks stuff either. I just bought some of the Chloe's bars to give them a taste but I miss my Ice Cream! Any suggestions that won't make me regret eating it later?

Lots of ice creams and sorbets are safe.  Read the ingredients.  Obviously don't get things like cookie dough flavor.

Mc Donald's soft serve ice cream is also safe, correct?

-_- Depends on the facility, they make those mixes in huge buckets then pour over into the machine, there is a chance for CC there big time. But yes the base ingredients are safe....not sure of the machine, the idiot mixing it, or the device used to mix it.

 

On icecream there are plenty of gluten free and even gluten free certified ones, NOTE a lot of celiacs have issues with dairy starting off due to damaged villi not producing enough enzymes to break down the lactose. You might have to drop dairy for a few months for healing if it gives you issues. 

On this last note there are plenty of dairy free options like so delicious makes gluten-free certified diary free bars, and pints. if you need a sugar free option in addition I might suggest Wink who make gluten free and sugar free ice creams and you can even order these online and have them shipped to you, and they do have cookie dough and cake batter flavors gluten-free lol Open Original Shared Link

I saw on Wendy's website that their frosty's are gluten-free.  

I also looked  online and found many gluten-free ice creams.  Here are some links I found -

Wow, had no idea Haagen Dazs had gluten free options anywhere. I hope the same is the case here in Canada.

Friendlys?  Just be careful.  Cross contamination is the risk here or any ice cream shop.  To be safe, ask for a them to use a clean scooper and to use a fresh tub of ice cream.  Always confirm that the items are gluten free.  Managers can run to the grocery store if they run out of their own products.    So that fudge sauce (or whatever) might not be gluten free for the day.

The only thing that worries me is the cross contamination risk in the plants. Around Cincinnati they have graeters. This is the best damn ice cream there is. If you look at their website though, every flavor is listed as gluten-free, even the cookie dough. I try to get in touch with them but never can get a response. Their Black Raspberry Chocolate Chip is the best there is. When I got out of basic training I ate 2 pints in about 15 minutes. Loved it. Turkeyhill makes a gluten-free list.  They're not that bad but just worried about the CC.

I would be worried too, going there to eat because in the past I've had such careless service in general at our local one, I'd hate to trust them to not cross-contaminate. But you can buy their ice cream at grocery stores, so I think the flavors they list on their website as gluten-free should be okay to get at the grocery store.  That at least is a plus.

I hope it's the same in your country.  Can you try emailing them and asking?  I just wish they were not so pricey.  I got some on sale, and it was so good.  But I am on a limited budget, so that is going to have to be a rare treat.  But a treat indeed! :)  I got rum raisin and ate it in two days.  I have a pineapple-coconut one also that I'm saving for some other day I get a sweet craving.

Yum, black raspberry chocolate chip sounds so good!  I always liked black raspberry in general, and putting chocolate jimmies on it.  I bet the chocolate chips are even better.

I did email Nestle re their Haagen Dazs ice creams and I'm pretty happy with their response:

I eat Haagen Dazs with no issues and it is delicious!  I know that vanilla, vanilla bean,  strawberry and chocolate are all labelled gluten free too.  They have these new Trios that look amazing...my husband assures me that they are!  They aren't labelled gluten free, although no gluten ingredients.  They have so though and I can't have that.

I also eat Breyers Natural Vanilla with no issues and it's really good too.

I don't think they're labelled gluten-free here in Canada but I trust they are. I'm sure my daughter (she has Celiac and hence we are all gluten-free in the family) will love them.

So from what the customer service said, it sounds like it is the same in Canada as the US?  But very handy to know that all you have to do is read the ingredients and it will be very clear and easy to figure out what flavors might contain gluten.

      Symptoms Dismissed

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Chronic fatigue in the producer was the inspiration for the episode but I feel it touches on anyone that suffers and is dismissed as psycosomatic. The patient expressed my feelings elequently.  In episode 2 the doctor explains the problem well. I stopped all commercial milk protein like skim milk added to processed foods and in a few days there was a definate improvement in my  gut, bowel movements, discomfort etc. Still drinking several glasses of Pasture Fed grass fed milk with no negative effects.   Specifically, for myself Clonidine is the only medication that lowers my BP and the doctor did not renew it, insisting that I continue Losartan.  I think that she thinks I am abusing Clonidine and the reason the Losartan doesn't work is because I am non-compliant.  Absolutely not. Surprisingly after a few days withdrawal from the Clonidine my fasting blood sugar has gotten under control.  Fasting blood sugar near normal instead of over 160.  Last few days its been below 100.  I still need Glimiperide.  Without the clonidine my pulse rate is around 100 bpm, with it around 60.   Prescription of angiotensin receptor blockers in celiac disease is associated with persistent symptoms and surrogate markers of malabsorption.  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12323722/ Angiotensin receptor blocker-associated enteropathy (ARB-e) is an increasingly recognised clinical entity with symptoms and histological findings identical to coeliac disease (celiac disease). There is evidence to suggest immune-mediated mucosal injury in ARB-e with a high prevalence of DQ2/DQ8; however, as IgA anti-tissue transglutaminase (anti-TTG) is usually negative   https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/ueg2.12117 NEW research [Nov 2024] presented at the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) Annual Scientific Meeting suggests that angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), a class of drugs commonly used to manage hypertension, may be associated with poorer outcomes in patients with coeliac disease. Findings indicated that patients taking ARBs had a higher likelihood of experiencing persistent symptoms and markers of poor small bowel healing, such as anaemia and iron deficiency.  https://www.emjreviews.com/en-us/amj/gastroenterology/news/angiotensin-receptor-blockers-may-worsen-coeliac-disease-outcomes/

      Some inflammation in ileum with celiac?

      By mermaidluver22 · Posted

      @BarcinoHi! I am so sorry abt your son but also relieved to know I am not alone! My ttg iga is still mildly elevated but going down. Last time we checked I had some small erosions in my ileum but recently got an MRE that showed no inflammation. Calpro 70. We are still in limbo but we are taking a conservative approach as well. Please keep me updated about his situation and outcomes! I always love to hear others opinions/experiences especially ibd specialists.

      Dermatitis Herpetiformis - follow up dermatology appointment coming up

      By BelleDeJour · Posted

      Oh, thank you all so so much! I have found my people.   ❤️ I am so sorry that we have all suffered with this torturous itching and resulting sore skin. Sue, I can relate to what you wrote about the dark thoughts, I have had them, too. It's very tough and painful.  I have now had a 2 day straight run of only minor itching. I woke up this morning and did not want to get out of bed because it is the first time in months that I have felt comfortable and actually been able to appreciate the lovely feeling of the duvet on my skin, rather than just waking in pain and thinking about where I need to put cream on before I dress for work. If I can continue like this, then I think I could manage without medication but every time I say this, I then have a flare up. I plan to be very careful about what I eat over the weekend and it won't be easy as we are out with friends for dinner on Saturday (the pub do have very good gluten-free options, I checked of course!).  I really, REALLY appreciate your words so much and am so glad to have found this forum. I am going to read the articles kindly posted now, thank you Scott.

      I don’t know how common this is with celiac disease specifically, but significant inflammation, weight changes, aging, genetics, and skin elasticity can all play a role. It may be worth talking with both your doctor and a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon to see what options are realistic, from skin-tightening treatments to surgical approaches, while also making sure there isn’t ongoing inflammation, thyroid imbalance, or nutritional deficiency contributing. You deserve support for both the physical and emotional side of this.
