Peanut Butter Without Any Peanuts/nuts!

I LOVE peanut butter, so I know it must be terrible to find you have to give it up. However, I just ran into this product - Peanut butter without the peanuts! Though I don't have any reaction to peanuts or nuts that I'm aware of (thank goodness!), I know many reading this do. If you try it please post your comments!

Thanks Rice Guy--The cool thing about the guy in the video is that he says that 1 in 133 people are gluten intolerant.

I tried it and I am surprised to say that I actually like it.

But with corn starch...I am concerned that I will develop a problem with cashews which I use for my peanut butter substitute (cashew butter). Too bad...this would have worked.

Since corn allergies are so common, I'd think they would use another starch, like arrowroot, or one of the many others. Perhaps writing to them will get their attention on this issue. It's a small company, so they'll probably listen like they did with the soy. Apparently the original product had soy, but they removed it.

depending on your location, and if you can handle seeds, you may be able to find sunflower butter. also a good pb sub.

I've also seen cashew butter.

yep, as well as almond butter and macadamia nut butter. I think I've seen hazlenut butter too (not nutella), but I don't remember where. unfortunately, nut allergic folks would want to avoid those, while they might be able to have the seed butter. (at least, that's my understanding.)

I have no trouble finding nut butters and I recently tried sunflower butter (Trader Joes). I eat Macadamia butter (sooo good), peanut butter, and almond butter. Next one to try is cashew butter. :)

Oh yeah...I also have sesame butter but I dont like it as much as the others. I think I have to aquire a taste for it.

My daughter has life threatening allergies to peanuts and tree nuts and is trying gluten-free, so thanks for this info!

Interesting. I like the label - cute! :)

Recently, I've also been eating the following "nut" butters: cassava butter, white sweet potato butter, arrowroot butter and malanga butter. They're from www.specialfoods.com . I put them on the corresponding bread (cassava bread, etc....). Almost everything they make is gluten-free. :)

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
