Free cone day is coming! April 25th is the day that Ben & Jerry's Scoop Shops give out a free scoop of ice cream, yum! You can go to their website Open Original Shared Link and see if you have one near you!

They don't keep a listing of what flavors are gluten-free, but they do clearly label and don't hide gluteny ingredients.

I went to a scoop shop yesterday and had no problems (except the lactose part, but it was worth it :P ) and they gave me a really recent ingredient listing for all of their flavors.

If anyone is curious about their favorite flavor, I can post the ingredients!

Remember April 25th (for those that can have ice cream)!!!!!

:(:(:(:( Sorry :(:(:(:(

I didn't mean to be mean...

They have 4 flavors of sorbet though, and they all look gluten-free/cf (even egg free) to me! :)

Berry Berry Extraordinary (aka Buried Treasure), Lemonade, Mango Lime, and Strawberry Kiwi Swirl

YAY!!! Thanks for sharing!~

For those who can't eat dairy, I did see on their site that they have come out with 3 new sorbet flavors with no dairy/lactose. I wonder if they carry those in the scoop stores? I have yet to find them at my local grocery stores, but maybe b/c they are new in 2006.

ChelsE beat me to it! ;)

Thats what I get from thier site's "Falvor Locator".

I love free scoop day!!!!

Ben & Jerry's is really good about listing their ingredients. My favorite flavors there are Chunky Mokey and Cherry Garcia (used to like Mint Chocolate Cookie).

Hey, Vydorscope, our local market carries prepacked Ben & Jerry's--have you checked yours? (There might be hope....)

Sorry, I wish we had one close to use as well. We just have Baskin Robins. Dollywood has Mini Melts, does anyone know if these are gluten-free?

This may be a dumb question but...do scoop shops wash the scoops in between scooping the different flavors?

They will if you ask them to. The guy at the B&J shop I was at yesterday went and even sterilized one.

Wow, that's great!

I checked out the sorbets you metioned online. It looks like they're soy free as well. YUM :lol:

Is that you in your avatar? It's such a beautiful picture! :)

Free cone day has always been my fav day of the year... but im a little nervous this year- the one near me is the one in Times Square and it is SO crazy on Free cone day- the line goes around the block! Should i be concerned about my "special needs" of getting my Free Cone scoop in a CUP?! I feel like it will be a disaster that day...

OHhhhhhh, lets go together!!! That is the one by me also. I'm like a block away. I usually try and go later in the afternoon, around 3:00 so it's not lunch time. Line usually isn't bad then.

I believe the Phish Food flavor is gluten free. According to their website, they specifically state that if a product contains gluten it will be listed as either "wheat" or "flour". The ingredients for Phish Food ice cream list neither. However, I would double-check with the company.

Yes, its gluten-free... but not dairy free. :(

The last time I checked the following Ben & Jerry's flavors are gluten free:

Fudge Central

Karamel Sutra

Everything But The...

New York Super Fudge Chunk

Peanut Butter Cup

Phish Food

Pistachio Pistachio

Uncanny Cashew

Vanilla

Chocolate

Coffee

Vanilla Caramel Fudge

But, of course, you should double check to make sure the ingredients are still gluten free.

Not to be a party pooper, but you should really insist on a fresh tub of ice cream. Even if they sterilize the scoop, they most likely already added a scoop that touched a cone into the tub. Probably just trace amounts but enough to do damage. Better off buying a sealed tub, unless it is a fresh untouched batch.

Again don't want to be a buzz kill!

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.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions...

I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Insomnia help

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗
