All of Jolly Time is gluten-free. I e-mailed them awhile ago and got a nice response. Even the kettle corn, etc. all gluten-free :P

Enjoy! I'm addicted to Jolly Time mini-bags.

Is Healthy Choice Popcorn Gluten Free?

KaitiUSA Enthusiast

Healthy Choice is a ConAgra brand and they list the allergens so if it has wheat it will clearly say it. I have never seen a popcorn with rye, barley, or oats in it so I would think that is safe. If you are in question you should call. Someone who eats it on here might know.

Act II and Kroger brands are gluten-free. You might want to be extra careful of those with all the extra butter flavors and such as that is generally where you will get additives.

I know this is probably going to make you either laugh or think I am grasping at straw (or both) but we are going to the movie tomorrow for first time since my dx Monday. Should I assume I can not have my beloved movie theatre popcorn - without butter of course? We just spent three hours going over everything in the pantry and have to go shopping at Publix now. I can not call AMC Theatres until Monday and can not find a thread on this, just microwave popcorn. If I can't have movie popcorn, to me it won't really be a movie but I'll have to sneak in my gluten-free Paul Newman stuff.

Thanks I'll check it out! We did get through out pantry/fridge cleaning out but we got a late start. I needed to sleep in today due to bizare dream which woke/kept me up (will post about that on the sleep thread for interpreting help on Monday). Cleaning out the kitchen thing took a while. And we dind't even clean the silverware drawer out yet! Enjoy your weekend!

Have a good time at the movies! Those dreams really do get weird after we go gluten free. I don't remember ever even remembering dreams that much, but now they're so vivid and strange. You'll get through the house--look at it this way--it'll all be there when you get back :D

I eat Orville Reddenbacher's microwave popcorn, I got a nice e-mail response from them that they are a Con Agra company and will clearly list any gluten in the labeling.

I also like Act II microwave popcorn.

AMC popcorn is gluten-free, and so are thier Tostitos nachos. Yum.

I've been eating the Act II Microwave Popcorn in the "Kettle Corn" flavor, and so far, I have NOT had any advert reactions to it. Thus, I am hoping that the Kettle Corn flavor in this brand is SAFE? (everyone is different, & I just may be able to tolerate it better than some folks??) Was curious here! :huh:

      It is more likely code for “we think there really was a good response to the treatment, but it was small or in a small percent of subjects so it would take a large clinical trial to try to prove it.”

      Thank you so much for your replies. Luckily the rash went away when I completely swore off gluten. It took several months but I have not had a flare in months. So a biopsy is no longer possible. The itch was terrible and apart from bleaching my skin the steroid lotions and potions did nothing. The Gliadin is for accidents and shall be a part of my travel kit from now on. This past exposure has made a me a little leery about eating anything that was not cooked in my kitchen or a dedicated gluten-free restaurant. As much as I used to love baked goods, I am cured and have become quite the gluten free baker to the point that friends and family forget that my cakes/cookies/and bread are not "real". I guess I will have to wait for the new blood test to come out to get confirmation but I have a suspicion that the rash was dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill

      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:
