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! ;)

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).

They have a Mint Chocolate Chunk now that is excellent, and gluten-free :lol:

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!

      Oral thrush question

      By JulieRe · Posted

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      Oral thrush question

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      Advice while waiting for testing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).
