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

This is the best news in a long while...I had no idea! Didn't even check, haven't had a Reese's for months....I suspect I'm due for a small binge today.... :P

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

klemmen Rookie

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!

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
