I don't think so. The reason being, that rice dream isn't gluten free, so I assume that ice cream made with it is not gluten free, either. Sorry to disappoint you.

Thanks for actually finding the answer, instead of making assumptions, like I did this time! Maybe I can even have it (even though not to find something else I can't have in the ingredients list is a long shot).

Good grief, I must crave something nice enough to turn my brain off completely sometimes, I am intolerant to RICE! Anyway, I am glad you can have it at least. ;)

I actually didn't like it at all, i thought it was pretty gross, and didn't taste at all like ice cream.

It's all personal taste.

Betty --So it's good? I've never had it, but have thought about trying it. I do like Sharon's Sorbet. It has cane sugar instead of corn syrup. But you can't put chocolate topping on it..... :D Are you feeling any better? Been worried about you!

I use toffutti brand (wildberry is my favorite one at least the one that tastes most like ice cream to me although the vanilla almond bark is pretty tasty as well) Sometimes I use So Delisous...it comes in mint chocolate and a really decent strawberry but the chocolate is pretty good too. but my favorite thing is to make my own smoothies from frozen fruit(usually berries) bananas, pinapple juice and cocunut cream (some brands are just cocunut milk with suger added)....wizz in the blender with some ice and eat up. Way better then ice cream...and healther too.

Oh yeah sometimes i get edey's whole fruit too.

i've had the rice dream...it is pretty decent... if you are looking for icecream alternatives--dairy free. maybe ck out the icecream recipe using Vance's dairy free. supposed to be pretty good--i can point you in the right direction if you are interested.

Hi Jen--I have that recipe! Now, I need to get an ice cream maker--have never owned one!!! I'm looking forward to trying it, though. Need to reorder Vances--have you tried it yet?

If you can handle Soy, try Turtle Mountain Soy creams!!!

Please note that some of their "purely decadent" flavors (like the chocolate brownie) do have gluten in them. Though they test their products (ELISA test) for gluten, and other allerges, I have had reactions to their specialty flavor lines(particularly the Cherry Vanilla), I suspec these share the same lines, but I'm real sensitive. I still with their Soy Delicous flavors, chocolate, vanilla, and neapolitin. With these my family has not had any issues.

Especially the chocolate covered soy cream bars....I ate a box of them (There are 3 in a box) last night!

I haven't tried the Rice Dream Ice Cream, but I try not to shop at Whole Lotta Money. I absolutely love Ben and Jerry's Chunky Monkey though.

I love toffutti! So far, that's the best brand that I've found (wildberry is the best).

I have the recipe too, but am on a tight budget and really can't order it, paying the shipping etc. someday I hope

I tried soy ice cream [toffuti] I had terrible stomach pain, but when I make my rice dish with soy I'm ok..weird!

Betty--I know--the shipping is high! I've been talking to the manager of my local health food store in hopes of them carrying it. I printed off the info from the website and included the phone number. I'm becoming a pest :unsure:

It isn't BAD, it's just nowhere near Baskin Robbins or anything. I've eaten it.. still in freezer.. but it doesn't quite hit the spot the same as good ol' regular ice cream does.

Rice cheese tates like crap, so I guess rice-as-dairy doesn't really fly that well?

I've had the rice dream strawberry ice cream... it is okay as an ice cream substitute but only cause I haven't seen anything else I can have in any stores (can't have soy now)... doesn't compare to even a bad ice cream place on the jersey shore though but it's decent for what it is... could be worth a shot if you can't have soy/dairy and want to try something.. be careful about the flavor though cause I was checking one that had malted barley..

I've only tried the vanilla flavor of rice dream ice cream. I personally didn't care for it, it had a odd aftertaste for me.

I have looked for Sharon's Sorbets in my health food stores and they don't carry it. I wish they would, I went to the website and they aren't nationwide.

I might get an ice cream maker and start experimenting with my own recipes for ice cream's and sorbets.

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.

      Gluten free stuff

      By Tammy Pedler · Posted

      As soon as I see gluten free I read the labels. I always find stuff that I cannot have on the products them selfs. Like spices, when the labels says  everything listed and then after like say garlic salt then the next thing is spices. When it says that that can contain wheat and other things I can’t have..

      Do some people with Celiacs develop hypoglycemia?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While hypoglycemia isn't a direct, classic symptom of celiac disease, it's something that some individuals with well-managed celiac disease report, and there may be a few plausible explanations for why the two could be connected. The most common theory involves continued damage to the gut lining or nutrient deficiencies (like chromium or magnesium) that can impair the body's ability to regulate blood sugar effectively, even after gluten is removed. Another possibility is delayed stomach emptying (gastroparesis) or issues with the hormones that manage blood sugar release, like glucagon. Since your doctors are puzzled, it may be worth discussing these specific mechanisms with a gastroenterologist or endocrinologist. You are certainly not alone in experiencing this puzzling complication, and it highlights how celiac disease can have long-term metabolic effects beyond the digestive tract.

      Paracetamol, aka, acetaminophen (Tylenol) just does not do anything for me as far as pain relief. It does help with fevers, though.
