I know that almost all of Starbuck's drinks are okay, but what about the frappuccino-type stuff that you can buy at in a bottle at a convenience store? I assume those are okay as well. Has anyone every verified this? Thanks

Actually, on the same subject, but different drink, does anyone know about their teas? I'm a BIG dummy because I just ordered the largest one, then left, then thought, wait, I didn't look at the ingrediants! (it was chamomile, but I know theirs isn't JUST chamomile)......so I went back and asked to read a box and there was no clear barley or anything but 'natural flavors.' The workers never heard of gluten. So, I threw out the whole thing and bought some celestial at a drug store......did I just waste 2 dollars? I was too scared to risk it.

I believe Starbucks serves Tazo tea. Here's the info I've come across on that:

"All gluten-free except Honeybush, Green Ginger, Lemon Ginger, and Tea Lemonade. This info is on their website www.tazo.com in the FAQ section."

oooh, darn! I threw it all out, and I wanted to keep the cup. (the ones in the office are so small and I have to keep running back and forth to the kitchen! haha)........well, I guess I know for next time! But I'm proud of myself for not taking the chance on the spot! Before I would have just said, welll....it couldn't be, and then be in trouble. Thanks though!

Frappuchino's (bottles) are safe. I called them two years ago and asked and have them on occasion with no problems. I drink them very seldom because I am allergic to casein. On the same frame of question, are ALL Starbucks coffees (in their store) gluten-free? Like the ones with flavorings, etc.

I am under the impression (from others' comments on this board) that all of Starbuck's in-store coffee and drinks are gluten free, with the exception of some obvious stuff like brownie-flavored seasonal drinks.

This is from the gluten free in San Diego website:

Starbucks

The following information was given by several Customer Service Department representatives for Starbucks via telephone. They require you to call to receive information about their gluten-free menu items, rather then email.

Not gluten-free:

Any frappachino with "chips" (Java Chip, Double Chocolate Chip, Mint Mocha Chip, and the malt mix (an optional additive).

All other beverages are gluten free (as long as they don't have any of the "chips"). One representative specifically mentioned their chocolate sauce(?) as being gluten free.

Speaking of tea....I don't want to start a new post but I contacted Revolution teas today. They are sold at Whole Foods and are at many fine resorts and hotels. Their entire line of teas are gluten free. The lady had the answer right on her product info sheet but she wanted to know what gluten was. I gave her an abbreviated lesson and was impressed that she even cared. She said they are getting lots of calls about gluten which is what prompted them to update the product info sheet instead of having to call comsumers back after checking on each flavor for every call.

Their lavender earl grey tea is to die for so I'm so glad I don't have to give mine away! Also, their green tea is the only green tea I've ever liked.

This is very timely for me. We were in Starbucks today and my little girl wanted to know if she could get the hot chocolate. I wasn't sure, so I said no. I wanted to check it out. Does this mean that it is okay? My husband loves Starbucks and we weren't sure what he could have. The mocha and the caramel are okay? The white choc.? I think it is Godiva hot choc. they use. It is a Barnes and Noble with a Starbucks Cafe inside. Thoughts?

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Those are driving distance from me--I will try to check them out, thanks for sharing!

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
