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! ;)

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).

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!

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      By trents · Posted

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
