Safe Rice Milk

What rice milk is safe for gluten? My son has been having belly problems and I just read that Rice dream has barley. I've been using Shoprite brand. I wonder if he is getting gluten. I'm going to call Shoprite and ask but they are clueless about anything I ask. I was using Rice dream also on and off if it's on sale. I know his belly is reacting to something and I'm just trying to figure it out.

I don't have any problems with Whole Foods 365 Organic Rice Milk, Wild Oats brand Rice Milk or Lundberg's Drink Rice.

i have also cked on and used wild oats and whole foods (my two favorites) as well as pacific's (tastes a little mayoish to me) and full circle (good tasting).

I know someone already posted Lundberg's ricemilk, but I just want to add that I LOVE THE TASTE OF IT! I go through 3 cartons a week! Is that bad? :rolleyes: hahah I don't care actually. I get the vanilla kind, but the original tastes good too.

Yep, Lundenberg farms rice milk is good. I find that I have to watch my intake though b.c it is high carb and it seems to make me hungrier sooner than other foods. Enjoy!

I can't seem to find any of these rice milks anywhere. I tried to find it online but i can't. I don't have a wholefoods near me. I have a health foods store but they only have Rice dream and Garden of Eden soy and rice.

Hi - This is my first time posting here and I'm wondering about this Rice Dream situation. What I found is that on the Rice Dream "Original" package, there is no barley, but on the "Enriched" brand there is -- and they have clearly stated the amount of gluten in the product on the packaging. I have assumed that the "Original" is okay to drink.

Am I wrong? I've been drinking this every day for quite a while now. Over the past week I've developed some kind of inflammation in my stomach, though, and am wondering if this could be part of the problem.

I've been gluten-free since 1997 and am working towards becoming dairy free as well.

Thanks.

Kathy-

Go here to read their statement and see a gluten-free list: Open Original Shared Link They list no rice dream beverage as safe.

What about Westsoy rice milk? Is that safe? The company didn't get back to me yet. It's from Hanes I think.

jenvan - where do you get the rice chips?? whole foods? i saw them on the lundberg website - but havent found them in stores. they look so good.

I believe westsoy is okay. At least i think. I drank it without any problem.

Hi!

Have you ever tried the Blue Diamond brand almond milk. I too do not have access to some of the gluten free rice milks, but my grocery store carries the almond milk. The chocolate is really good you might want to try it.

Cheryl : :D

EdenSoy has a rice/soy blend that clearly states gluten-free. Claire

I get my chips at either Wild Oats, another local health food store or Kroger--ours has a 'natural' section with the chips. I thought Whole Foods has them too...pretty sure I bought some at one of the Whole Foods in Chicago. You'll really like them :)

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      probably not your situation @Mimiof2, but allow me to add one more to @trents list of celiac-mimics: "olmesartan-induced sprue-like enteropathy"

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes and goes randomly as before again.
