The bunny left me some Dove dark chocolate eggs and the little Reese's eggs. There's no ingredient info on the Hershey website; are they ok to have? They're staring at me... :P

The Dove Dark Chocolate Eggs are gluten-free for sure--I've already eaten 2 bags of them this month :ph34r:

If the it's the shape of an egg but flat they are ok, but if the are shaped like a real egg, I don't believe they are gluten free. I saw that on a post just last week...I will find it and post the link.

Does this mean the Reeses PB Cups are gluten free? (Oh please say yes, please say yes!) :)

i have to say i wasn't visited by the easter bunny of any sort, but my friend did give me some teabags he didn't like, and they arn't staring at me. We all had an easter lunch too, and there was this gluten filled chocolate cake they bought staring at me, and then they ate it.."oooh this is so sweet i dont no if i can eat it all"...and one of them left a little bit on their plate...and grrr who leaves chocolate cake if u can eat it!!! :huh: especially when it's staring at me. I was offered croissants too <_< and this disgusting black kinda liquid bread stuff you have with icecream..and someone said to me can't u just eat a little bit so you know what it tastes like..and after politiely saying no i forget how many times to all the gluten food...someone said to me just have a little bit what harm can it do..and i pointed at the black liquid bread and said.."that". (Open Original Shared Link) I wasn't offered anymore food. :lol:

Just looking at that stuff makes me want to puke. Expecially when it turned out it's made of Rye (which always gave me the worst reactions). Disgusting. How can anyone eat that?

On a side note, my grandmother did this to me on my birthday. Got a champagne cake (expecially for me), not realizing that they use flour (I ask - how can anyone NOT realize they use flour in cake?), then proceeded to urge me to have some, just a bite, why don't you try it, etc. I finally gave up the "politeness" and just said "NO!" (Maybe even a bit too loudly & forcefully - but hey, she stopped asking)... :D

YAY!!!!

My son came home from the Easter Egg Hunt this year with more candy than he got even at Halloween - quite a lot of which are the mini PB Cups.

I think I will be helping him eat them.

Quite a lot... :D

Yes, the small egg shaped ones. But it seems my daughter was kind enough to remove temptation for me ;) and ate them all.

She's lucky she doesn't care for Dark Chocolate and left me all the Dove eggs!!!

I thought I had read on here somewhere that around holidays the Reese's cups and products do have gluten in them, but other times of the year they don't. I'd give somebody else the eggs that are staring at you and go out and get yourself some pb cups with a readable label and indulge without fear!

that's because Kate, you're such a lemon! :P That was you, wasn't it? If not, I'm going to feel like a bubblehead.

Kidding aside, that is SUCH a bummer! Did they get the reference to the black liquid bread? I hope so! :D

Uh-oh. I guess it's worth a phone call to Hershey's then to sort this out...

Besides I don't like the big ones as much as I like the mini's. (I sure hope they are gluten free, ciz I've had, like, ten of them in the past few days)... :o

Hershey plainly labels gluten-containing ingredents. If it doesn't say wheat, barley, rye, or oats, you're ok.

As far as I knew, the only gluteny reese's things were the mini eggs that are shaped like cadbury eggs.

Unfortunately my Bunny (my mom) didn't save the bags with the labels, so I couldn't tell!

      Curious if I should quit my job

      Curious if I should quit my job

      By ohmichael · Posted

      hey all thank you for your responses. RMJ: Yes I am going to go and buy some N95 masks for work, and I think my employer will reimburse me. I can't re-use them for the maximum 5 reuses unfortunately because I am very sensitive and when I get home I have to wash all my clothes and immediately take a shower. Thank you for your suggestion! Russ H: I have never been formerly diagnosed, and I completely understand the possibility of this being a mild viral infection. I went to get tested for Influenza/COVID and both came back negative, my Primary Care Manager told me it could be a cold. That is always a possibility, however, I have been glutened at restaurants before (5 known exposures within the last 7 years) and the way in which my body gets sick, I can kind of tell them apart from one another if that makes sense. For instance, being gluten-sick for some can be described as flu-like symptoms, and when I get sick with gluten it comes on slower than when I have the flu or COVID. Typically starts out with headache, brain fog, and since I believe I ingested it working with flour (airborne) postnasal drip was one of the first to come along after my exposure as well. Another thing is that I have not quite had a fever but elevated temp (99 Fahrenheit) which is typical for me when I get ill with gluten exposure, followed by aches, sore body, stomach Hell, etc. This is the first time I have ever dealt with it in an airborne setting, but the onset of symptoms are all familiar. I think it is also possible that I am more susceptible to a cold now having been exposed to gluten. I don't have/can't afford private insurance currently and the agency I get my healthcare from works in dubious ways to prevent themselves from having to provide disability payments to veterans, as Celiacs/NCGS is a service connected disability. Everything for the state. Thank you for your comment, it has not fallen on deaf ears. I wanted to thank you all for your concern and time in writing to me; I'm trying to make sense of this because I like this job a lot (very short commute too) and I don't want to quit but constantly exposing myself to gluten is making me more ill, and damaging my immune system. I am still sick writing this. Plan moving forward: I am going to see how the N95 mask work for me, and I will be looking for a job that does not involve handling or being exposed to gluten in the workplace. I truly didn't think this job would be an issue since I was not eating any of the gluten. Thanks again all! I'm happy that I found this forum.

      Confused about my results

      By Russ H · Posted

      Sorry but I have to dash for an appointment so little time just now. Your signs and symptoms and response to a gluten-free diet sound like seronegative coeliac disease. Seronegative coeliac disease, Coeliac UK.

      Confused about my results

      By AllyJR · Posted

      Both the doctor and I are baffled by my test results. Wondering if anyone could shed some light on this situation! I've had celiac-like GI symptoms for years. I have a family history of celiac (great-grandma), Addison's (mom), and every other autoimmune disease you can think of with my aunts and cousins. I myself have hashimotos. Because of the strong family history of autoimmune disease my doctor ordered the full celiac panel of blood tests - all of which came back negative! (I was not gluten free fyi.) So the doctor did an endoscopy and took biopsies. Biopsies showed "villous blunting and lymphocytes greater than 30". Because it was indicative of "weak celiac disease" they sent me to get a genetic test. The test came back saying I'm only positive for HLA DQ A1*05 (half of the HLA DQ2 haplotype). The doctor said I could try going gluten free if I want to, but it likely isn't celiac disease. I have been gluten free for a month now and I feel like a new person! I've been suffering for so long and I feel amazing! No more diarrhea, stomach aches, reflux etc! My symptoms had been extremely severe and they are almost completely gone. I'm so thankful but... I'm so confused! Celiac? The doctor says it's probably NCGS but I keep reading that the first criteria for that diagnosis is a negative biopsy and mine very much showed damage.

      ohmichael, do you know that you've reacted to gluten? We all get ups and downs in health - a mild viral infection one week and maybe an unset stomach another time. It is easy to ascribe the symptoms to gluten exposure even when that is not the cause of the symptoms. I would wait and see if it happens again before giving up your job, especially if you don't have another one to go to.
