Hersheys Kissables are kinda like M&Ms, and their ingredients look okay....you know, just in case.

hey guys u might want to breath now...on the delphi forums i posted the same concern....someone called and talked to the company directly here is the response..

" I just talked to customer service rep at the Mars corporation. ALL M&Ms ARE gluten free. There is no change in status. You can call this number 1-800-222-0293 and hit "5" and you'll get a real live person to talk to (took me a while to get that, lol)

She appologized up and down for the "glitches" they are having. First, the are redoing their systems and have had alot of complaints and problems both on their phone system and the websites - the information is being updated and many people are getting inaccurate information or error messages...

To make a long story short: ALL M&Ms are still on their gluten free list and are gluten free. They no longer make the "crispy" ones ('cause I said, "Even your crispy ones - I wasn't sure if they were gluten free or not, actually). The crispy ones are still on their website, however, but they don't make them anymore. Go figure.

Enjoy."

PHEW!!!!! I was dreading having to tell my child that yet another one of her favorite TREATS is not safe... Thank you for posting this info and I will happily continue eating M&M's (btw I've never had any problems with them)

So why did some of you react to the M&Ms -- Red dye No. ??? The Blue dye??? That would be my guess. Also what about just too much sugar -- too much sugar can give anyone diarrhea. :blink:

It could be a reaction to the milk. My husband used to get really sick each time he ate them and then we found out he was casein intolerant also, so that explained it for him.

Yep--in my case, I suspected the milk--like I said, I usually eat dark chocolate, and stay away from dairy altogether. I had a craving for them, and ate quite a few. I only felt queasy, not like a gluten reaction, so that's why I didn't even think of the candy until I read that they might not be safe anymore and thought mmm...

If only they'd make - and sell somewhere other than M&M World in Vegas, for a limited time - dark chocolate M&M's for those of us who can't have dairy. I'd love some M&M's!

I am glad someone got an answer because they have not yet answered my emails.

So in view of the fact that they did not answer my email immediately I am going to sue them. Also I am going to sue all the dumb people I had to talk to on the phone, the city for not plowing the roads before I left for work and all the dumb drivers who cut me off and drove like sausages. I am going to sue all the men on my street for not rushing out to meet me when I came home, carry my bags and carry me to my door. I am preparing to sue everyone tomorrow also for assorted things.

*getting up from the floor where I've been pounding my fists and kicking my feet*

Ok, I brought M & M's for everyone to start your wknd off on a good note *passing the bowl*

Geez it's a wonder we're not all old and wrinkled with all the drama that goes on in this Celiac world of ours.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Try adding some Thiamine Hydrochloride (thiamine HCl) and see if there's any difference. Thiamine HCl uses special thiamine transporters to get inside cells. I take it myself. Tryptophan will help heal the intestines. Tryptophan is that amino acid in turkey that makes you sleepy after Thanksgiving dinner. I take mine with magnesium before bedtime...

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

      I live in the upper mid-west and was just diagnosed with marsh 3c celiac less than a month ago. As a 51 year old male, I now take a couple of different gluten free vitamins. I have not noticed any reaction to either of these items. Both were purchased from Amazon. 1. Nature Made Multivitamin For Him with No Iron 2. Gade Nutrition Organic Quercetin...

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      I am doing a gluten challenge right now and I bought vital wheat gluten so I can know exactly how much gluten I am getting. One tablespoon is 7g so 1½ tablespoons of Vital Wheat Gluten per day will get you to 10g You could add it to bean burgers as a binder or add to hot chocolate or apple sauce and stir.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6. Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline, Q10, Selenium, D and DHEA.     Choline supplemented as phosphatidylcholine decreases fasting and postmethionine-loading plasma homocysteine concentrations in healthy men +
