The Trix has "Wheat Starch" - Doesn't that have Gluten? :unsure:

The Coco Puffs indeed look to be Gluten Free - :)

EXCEPT for the Cross Contamination issue - but I, personally, am not that concerned about that. I GOTTA EAT SOMETHING!!!! (I eat Capt Crunch which has no inherent gluten, but Quaker says could have cross contamination issues).

Be nice! I have to read labels 2 3, sometimes 4 times at the stores!!

Try Silk Soymilk if you can have soy, its a great dairy substitute. Even before going df I found it to be better tasting!

I think you're really going to like the Vance's. I can't tolerate any of the alternative milks--except that one.

To my knowledge, we can't change the topic title. Why don't you email Scott and see if he will do it. Or, if you want, I can email him.

I thought Cap'n Crunch had oat flour. It does in Canada. Everytime I go to the grocery I check corn and rice based cereals and they always have malt or oat flour in them.

I just came from the Super Market - Fredericksburg, Virginia, USA, Giant Foods.

The TRIX (a different looking box than the "reduced sugar" one that was photographed here).

It does not have Wheat Starch or Malt Flavoring. But it DOES have whole grain oats - which do not seem to bother me. I also checked others by General Mills (Coco Puffs, Lucky Charms, etc) - it was hit and miss with ingredients. But Oats - either whole grain or as "flour" was pretty consistent.

I've been told that oats are ok and that the cross contamination varies greatly......and some are that sensitive that it bothers them and some are not. I'm still trial and erroring.

It appears to me that just about every food that I like COULD have cross contamination or wheat or gluten.

I have to eat something other than a hamburger patty (100% pure beef) with a slice of cheese on it!

I've been noticing that Fruit on the Botton Yogurt by both Dannon and Giant are gluten free and eat those and any other yogurts I can find with no stated hidden potential problem substances.

Most of the Dorito's, Tostitos, Lays/Utz potato chips are good to go (see the list posted previously). But I'm supposed to limit iodine (so too much salt).

I found TACO shells and Tortillas tonight both with and without wheat. Same brand, differing ingredients.

I also found cocktail sauce for shrimp both with and without "suspicious" stuff.

Are "emulsifiers" ok?

Trying very hard, but having hard time. Losing weight tho. :unsure:

The cocoapuffs have as an ingredient 'natural and artificial flavouring'. Isn't that a potential gluten source?

Yes, but in this case it General Mills and they will list any gluten soruces so its okay.

don't feel bad, I bought the same box a couple weeks back and ate it once or twice and felt a little odd afterwards, thinking it was my mind. Well I reread the labels and saw Wheat Starch towards the bottom....hmm I feel like an idiot because I completly missed it the first time I read the label....oh well. I will keep munching on my neoPets cereal and those frosted Perky O's.

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By trents · Posted

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Low iron and vitamin d

      By lizzie42 · Posted

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?

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