Does anyone know gluten-free products that are available from the Ice Cream Man/Truck? My kids still go crazy at the sound of its bell and I feel like I can't say no forever...any suggestions?

The local truck has gluten free push pops, also Blue Bell's fudgecycles should be gluten-free (but you might want to check)

I think (if I remember) those red white and blue rocket pops were gluten free also.

I don't know if your truck has the same stuff as ours though. ;)

If not, you could always just stock your freezer with stuff that looks like ice cream truck stuff and then they will have something similar to eat when thier friends go to the truck. :lol:

I had the same problem the other day! Those trucks play their music so loud! lol. My little one got the red, white and blue rocket pop and he seemed ok. But it did turn him blue and was very hard to get off. Makes you wonder what is in the food coloring.

I am trying to find out if the "fla vor ice" pops are gluten free now. Wanted to keep them around for the summer. Anyone know?

I don't even bother with the ice cream truck... we have TWO of them that canvass our neighborhood... I just keep a supply of popsicles and frozen yogurt and italian ice's in the freezer so if she hears the truck, instead of running for change, she runs to the freezer! LOL! I have the kid well trained! We love our ice cream treats here so we are always fully stocked! Latest addiction is fudge pops... the entire family is going crazy for them!

Thank you! I looked all over that stupid web site and never saw that page. This will be a great treat for a two year old through the summer. :D

I overheard on a radio show, once, a discussion about "harmless things our parents did that were slightly deceptive....." One woman said she was told that when the ice cream truck was playing the music it was to let you know that they were out of icecream!!!

:lol:

It's funny in a make you feel bad for laughing kind of way.

haha, that is funny.

I spent the first 4 years of my daughter's life NOT buying anything from the truck, trying to keep her from finding out, I sent her to my mother in laws for a weekend, and now everytime she hears the music she screams "ICE CREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!"

:angry:

So much for my efforts. :( I thought it was such a good idea too. :lol:

Don't the ice cream bars come wrapped?

(sorry I grew up in a really small town and didn't have an ice cream truck so this is not supposed to be sarcastic question. I just assumed everything is in a wrapper).

      EMA Result

      By trents · Posted

      Let me hasten to add that if you will be undergoing an endoscopy/biopsy, it is critical that you do not begin efforts to reduce gluten beforehand. Doing so will render the results invalid as it will allow the small bowel lining to heal and, therefore, obscure the damage done by celiac disease which is what the biopsy is looking for.

      Violent reaction to gluten after going gluten-free?

      Seeking advice on potential gluten challenge

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      That’s a really tough situation. A few key points: as mentioned, a gluten challenge does require daily gluten for several weeks to make blood tests meaningful, but negative tests after limited exposure aren’t reliable. Dermatitis herpetiformis can also be tricky to diagnose unless the biopsy is taken from normal-looking skin next to a lesion. Some people with celiac or DH don’t react every time they’re exposed, so lack of symptoms doesn’t rule it out. Given your history and family cancer risk, this is something I’d strongly discuss with a celiac-experienced gastroenterologist or dermatologist before attempting a challenge on your own, so risks and benefits are clearly weighed.

      By Greymo · Posted

      https://celiac.org/glutenexposuremarkers/    yes, two hours after accidents ingesting gluten I am vomiting and then diarrhea- then exhaustion and a headache. see the article above- There is research that shows our reactions.

      EMA Result

      By trents · Posted

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.
