M&m's Off The gluten-free Call In List

I think I am going to cry. I recall companies for everything periodically and just called to recheck M&Ms. Last time I called when I went to the phone promts for gluten-free items they were there with the exception of the crispy ones. Now they are gone. Why do they have to do this to us. Unfortunately I ate a couple handfuls before I called. I am so mad at these companies.

Please send some verification, I HAVE to have that. I can't give up the only sweets that I eat. I am truely afraid that our diets will be shortened with the new labeling issues. M&M's may be the next fall-out. What's next........Necco's. (God-forbid). <_< Pitts

The funny thing is that I usually only eat Dove Dark chocolate. Last week, I got a craving for M&M's and had a couple handfuls. That night, I felt queasy but never suspected the candy. Jeez--not like I eat them all the time, but they are so good once in a while :angry:

:angry: I'll add to the angry rants. I am wondering if every product in Mars inc (thats the makers of m&m right?) is not going to be gluten free. B/C if I cannot have my m&m, then i at least want my snickers and babyruths.

Oh no, I love M&Ms, but snickers is a meal in a pinch, so I am REALLY hoping that is not the case!!!!!!!

Gee Richard I thought you were very pretty that perhaps you had been "changed." I will check my email when I get home today and hopefully I will have an email from Marshall Foods (the makers of the M&M etc.) As soon as I get it, I will post it to this site.

You know what, someone cut me off on the road this morning, I'm going to sue them!

My coffee was cold at starbucks! I'm going to sue! Who cares if it was a frappucino!

My desk chair at work is not satisfactorily comfortable, I'm going to sue!

Glutened by m&m's? Eh, that's ok, what can I expect from a food manufacturer :P

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      You’re raising a very real and very well-documented problem, and you’re absolutely right to be frustrated. Medication labeling is a major blind spot for people with celiac disease, because unlike food, drug manufacturers are not required to clearly disclose the source of binders, fillers, or excipients—even when they may be derived from wheat. That puts ...

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Trip to Anaheim/Disney

      By Seaperky · Posted

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
