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.

      How long does it take to gain weight?

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Taken Seriously

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
