Hi,

I'm wondering if your chocolate and caramel ice cream sauces are Gluten Free?

Thank you!

Mine are because I only buy ones that are gluten-free.  You should really do the same IMHO if you are trying to eat gluten-free.  I can tell you that plain Hershey's chocolate syrup is gluten-free in the USA.

In a major effort not to come off as a total Richard-head I am posting in a link to Hershey's website.  They have a nice disclaimer on gluten and a list of their products that are gluten-free.

https://www.thehersheycompany.com/en_us/whats-inside/gluten-free.html

The best way to determine if our products contain a gluten ingredient is to read our product label. This label includes an accurate, current listing of the ingredients in our products. Because, on occasion, the list of ingredients can change, we strongly encourage you to check the ingredient label on the package each time before you make a purchase.

Actually I think their Special Dark Choc Syrup and Simply 5 Choc Syrup are gluten-free too.  I found some sugar free pancake syrup recently and am planning to try making it into chocolate syrup by adding cocoa powder to it.  According to my science I should actually lose weight while eating ice cream that way. :)

I haven't tried any of their caramel sauces myself.  For any other product the same also holds true, read the ingredients.  That usually works although their have been some cases of mislabeling things gluten-free show up.  The Gluten-free Watchdog posts notices about those products on Facebook.  I think Hershey's is pretty good about labeling.  I am not sure about other companies.

Welcome to the forum ! :)

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
