Cold Stone Creamery - Yum!

Hi everyone. I just discovered Cold Stone Creamery. They have a great comprehensive list of all their icecreams and toppings. It shows which icecreams have certain allergens, including gluten, nuts, soy, msg, dairy,etc. Most are gluten free. They put the icecream on a frozen table where other icecreams may have been, so I asked them to put mine directly in the cup. Yumm!!! They use the table to fold in toppings or just mix the icecream up. Just ask for your toppings on top. They have some locations in Boston, but I know they are in other areas also.

When I could eat dairy, we went there often. I always asked them to use a clean scoop because of the flavors that have wheat and the cones.

Some of their candies are listed as containing gluten that don't, like, I think M&M's. But I'd rather them be extra cautious and make a mistake that way because of their uncertainty. I never got mix-ins.

Great ice cream!!

I went there a few weekends ago. I told the young girl behind the counter about what I couldn't have and she was wonderful So was the ice cream. A funny side, I went with three others and when I brought my bowl to the table it was double the size of theirs and they said they should have told them they had celiac. YUM :P

I've been to afraid to go to Coldstone because of how they mix everything on the slab. What if the person before me gets something with Oreos or something? I'll stick with Haagen Dazs and Ben & Jerry's.

Jillian,

I've only been there once, but when I told them what I needed, they got a separate, clean bowl to mix mine.

They offered to either clean the stone or mix mine on a separate platter. I don't like mix-ins, so it was irrelevant, but they did offer.

Just watch them when they mix it. My son had a small nut reaction from Cold Stone Creamery and he had no nuts. Must have been residue on the stone.

we either take our Cerrone cones with us to Coldstone or get it in the cups and just ask for a clean scoop and have it scooped directly into the cup and the toppings on top... no probs... and MMMMMMM YUMMMMMMMY

I don't know what I would do if I had to give up Coldstone.

I had to give up casein ... so I switched to Haagen Dazs chocolate sorbet.

Just a thought... Not to argue, but isn't that like asking someone to use a clean knife when they spread your butter or mayo on your bread? Isn't there still a chance of cc in the ice cream from the "old" scoop? I have never eaten there. Just wondering....

Almost all their ice creams are gluten free except the ones with cookies and such. I check the ice cream and if I see any other kinds have gotten in I don't get that one. Also, someone said you can ask them to get it from the back. Anyway I have had no problems.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
