I use Log Cabin original, Aunt Jemina Origianl or Mrs. Butterworth's original. All 3 are gluten-free. Be careful about other varieties though, such as butter flavor, Lite or sugar fee. I have not checked all of those out, but maybe someone else has.

I eat Van's gluten-free waffles everyday for breakfast! :)

WHOA!! check your sources on those syrups again!

Aunt Jemima syrup IS gluten free.

Log Cabin & Mrs. Butterworth syrups : A Pinnacle Foods consumer services rep. reported that these syrups are NOT gluten-free (they consider barley a natural flavor, and therefore it is not listed in ingredients). Pinnacle says the exception is Log Cabin Country Kitchen Syrup, which IS gluten-free.

I use 100% organic pure maple syrup. There are different brands available. But at least there are no added ingredients. However, for a family it could get expensive.

i agree that 100% pure maple syrup is the way to go... but if youre a single mom, currently not working like me- gotta take the shortcuts and get what you can afford!

Rache & Jaimi--If you have a Wegmans nearby, their store brand pancake syrup w/2% maple syrup is marked on the bottle gluten-free. It's $1.99 a bottle!

I have no idea what Wegmans even is! Yeah, I live in the middle of nowhere. But that price sure isnt bad!

:D Rache--That's so funny! I thought that maybe, because you're from Western Pa., that you had one. We have them here in NJ and Eastern Pa and up in NY. They're a huge grocery store--and very special-diet friendly, for a major chain. Oh well, gave it a shot! :D

I looked it up... There is one in Erie PA. which is like an hour away from me. I was actually thinking about heading to the mall up there sometime soon, so if i do i plan on checking out Wegmans. Thanks for the idea!

Yes--If you're going there anyway, definately check it out. They mark their own brands gluten-free, lactose free, vegan, kosher, etc. They have a really good selection of natural toiletries, teas, produce--I think you'll enjoy looking around there. :)

I had been eating Mrs Butterworths b/c it has been listed as gluten-free before. I had recently read in a couple places that it was no longer gluten-free. I'm going to look for something i can find for everyone as proof.

I had seen somewhere also that Aunt Jemima is gluten free too. I read it somewhere and was happy about it b/c it was the one on sale. I have eaten it a few times (almost thru with the bottle) and I havent had any problems. I am going to check the label again.

I just picked up Krogers "Honey Maple Syrup", all thoguh I MUCH perfer 100% pure Vermont Maple Syrup, cant realy afford it all that often. Gonna have to call Kroger later and check gluten-free status on it, but since its a "new" falvor, it should have the new labling and does not mention wheat so I am fiarly confident they will say its gluten-free.

Sorry to not have done the right research (NO TIME!!!) but could you tell me what the "new labeling" is for Kroger? I have not read about that. I shop at Fred Meyer here on the West Coast & they were bought by Kroger so that is their store brand now.

Thank you!!

Thank you!!

FDA passed a regulation that went into effect Jan 2006 that says you HAVE TO disclose the top 8 allergens in all foods, and that includes wheat. However, they are allowing manufacutres to use up old lables first.

EDIT: Oh Jami forgot to say, your gonna like haveing Kroger! Most Kroger brand products are safe, and if you call thier toll free number on week days, in middle fo the day, you can usally get right through to a registered dietation that cna looke up the gluten-free status of any of thier products for you. They are VERY easy to work with.

Okay, here is some info that I found.....

Delphi List lists Log Cabin, all varieties gluten-free as of 3/25/2004. I did send another email off to them today, as the phone number I had was not good. I will update here when I hear back.

They also list Mrs. Butterworths original as gluten-free and I have an email into them as well.

I think that is where I got my original info. I knew that I had found it somewhere.

Sorry again for any confusion.

I had an email from them listing the information i had posted before, but i cant find it! so i emailed again yesterday. if i can find the other email (which was just sent to me a couple months ago) ill post it! i get very worried trusting foods that are gluten-free 2 years ago, so much can change in 2 years with ingredients!

      Breakfast ideas besides oatmeal as Avenin can be gluten?

      I read gluten-free oatmeal Avenin can cause gluten like symptoms. I read Bobs Redmill gluten-free creamy buckwheat cereal and Millet are good alternatives with ultra low heavy metals, mold but it seems it takes longer to prepare the minute oats. What have you changed your breakfast to.

      The Struggle Has Overtaken Me

      Ginger38, that sounds very difficult. Each dietary restriction makes it harder to figure out what to eat. Before my celiac diagnosis I already watched out for my cholesterol level and migraine triggers, but those are much easier than diabetes restrictions. One “bad” meal isn’t that much of a problem for cholesterol levels, and my migraines only happened if I ...

      Ginger38, that sounds very difficult.  Each dietary restriction makes it harder to figure out what to eat. Before my celiac diagnosis I already watched out for my cholesterol level and migraine triggers, but those are much easier than diabetes restrictions. One “bad” meal isn’t that much of a problem for cholesterol levels, and my migraines only happened if I consistently ate the triggers. After many years I’ve figured out how to bake gluten free but I think many recipes have more starch which wouldn’t work for diabetes. If you go with the elephant eating analogy, I think the first portion to work on would be the diabetes, since the immediate consequences of not being careful (passing out from low blood sugar, or diabetic coma from high blood sugar) are so severe. The next portion would be celiac. The serious consequences aren’t as immediate, but if you have celiac disease, I think of eating gluten like a booster shot - revving up the immune system, but to attack yourself leading to long term damage. It sounds like you are experiencing this damage now. I did a google search on “gluten free food for diabetics” and a number of sites with advice came up.  If your insurance will cover it and you can find one, a registered dietician who knows about both diabetes and celiac disease might help you figure out what to eat safely. Hopefully my post will both scare and encourage you, as requested, with a big dose of compassion because this sounds very difficult and you are clearly suffering.

      Reading the original post on this thread made me think of "How To Eat An Elephant". The key point is that a whole, big problem can seem insurmountable but if you break it into bite-sized pieces it is much easier to accomplish. Here is the google description. It's not bad: If you're facing a daunting goal, you can use these steps to "eat your elephant": Identify the Elephant: Clearly define the large project or goal that feels overwhelming. Break it Down: Divide the major task into smaller "bite-sized" pieces. If a piece still feels too big, break it down further. Prioritize: Decide which "bite" to take first based on necessity or impact. Focus on the Now: Instead of worrying about the whole animal, focus only on the single step you are taking right now. Maintain Consistency: Progress comes from taking the "next right step" every day until the task is complete. Celebrate Small Wins If I understood Ginger38's post correctly, you are facing the prospect of a gluten challenge, but you are already eating gluten on an intermittent basis. It also sounds like many of the symptoms you attribute to gluten consumption are in full expression. Step back and take a deep breath. Get a notebook and start a gluten-related diary. Don't try to make it perfect; just record what you can about food intake and what you experience as you go along. Talk to your Dr's office (nurse, Dr, whomever) about the challenge. The most rigorous challenge is for someone who has already gone truly gluten free but now needs a clear diagnosis. Someone who is already eating gluten should not need as much "challenge". Even at that, google describes an example challenge as 1-2 slice of bread or 1/2 cup of pasta a day. If that describes your existing diet you are already there. For the moment, try to focus on getting past the challenge and test. Once you have the results, start planning accordingly.

They might, but they also might be under tremendous time pressure and not get to it. Two other suggestions: if your healthcare provider has a web portal, sign on and search for "gluten challenge". They may have a standard page and Dr assumed you would find it on your own. If that doesn't work, call the Dr's office and ask the office for their official advice. You probably wouldn't need to speak to the Dr directly. There should be some nurse or staff member who could answer that

      Gluten challenge - Need some guidance

      By Xravith · Posted

      After few months going gluten free, I decided to reintroduce gluten in my diet so I can do a proper diagnosis for Celiac disease. During the gluten free period I felt incredibly good. I stopped having hypoglycemia symptoms, I gained some muscle (Still, I am considerably underweight) and my anxiety totally disappeared. I felt totally like a new person. Now, I almost reached the second week of gluten challenge and all my symptoms are progressively coming back. The first days I was ok, just a bit of acid reflux I could control with medicines. However, after the first week I started to feel real stomach pain and tiredness, my face is growing acne and sometimes (specially when I walk) i feel painful migraines.  I am afraid If I am eating too much gluten or not enough, the "4 slices of bread" indication confuses me. I am actually eating 20 g of bread, 3 biscuits and 40 g of croissant each day. My doctor was not very specific when he gave me the medical order for the gluten challenge, so I invented my own daily gluten menu. Do you have any suggestions? 4 weeks will be enough to do the blood test with my current gluten intake?  Thank you
