Does anybody know of any jelly beans other than Jelly Bellys that are gluten free? Every brand I've looked at contains modified food starch.

Love the Jelly Bellys but they're so darned expensive!

The modified food starch is USUALLY corn, it's supposed to be corn in the US, unless otherwise declared.

We have gotten Just Born Jelly Beans (all Just Born Candies are supposed to be gluten-free, my husband verified via e-mail with them last year), Starburst Jelly Beans and Jolly Rancher Jelly Beans those are both Kraft and Kraft will clearly label if there is any Wheat, Barley, Rye or Oats... so enjoy!

Wow. Thank you so much!

I was in the grocery store last night looking at the Starburst jelly beans because I thought I had read that they were gluten free, but the modified food starch scared me off. I just bought some Peeps and called it a night <_<

You've eaten them with no ill effects?

Jelly beans are my absolute favorite candy of all time...

You know what's weird?

I never eat Jelly Beans nor do I care for them that much.

Last night, I had a dream that I was in a room full of Jelly Beans and I was eating them (except for the black ones) -- My roommate came in and said, "Chris, why are you eating those, are they gluten free?"

I responded by pelting him with several Jelly Beans and loudly boasting that "I don't care, If I want Jelly Beans, I will eat Jelly Beans..."

Dreams are so weird -- I'm sure this one describes the angst I have subconciously with the gluten-free diet, but its still funny...

Bronco

p.s. I told my roommate abou the dream and he just stared at me and then left the room...

LOL about your dream! That is too funny!

Yes I've eaten the Starburst and the Jolly Rancher jelly beans with no ill effects whatsoever. My daughter eats the Starburst ones on a fairly regular basis, and I am newly addicted to the Jolly Rancher ones.

I eat Dare gumdrops, jujubes, and jellybeans. They are gluten-free, at least in Canada.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.
