I'm just curious, what are your favorite brands and flavors of gluten free icecream or frozen yougert? I heard directly from the Turkey Hill company that all of their flavors of icecream are gluten free unless it has cookie, graham cracker, brownie, etc. pieces in it. I'm still paranoid to try it though because i don't want to get glutened by cross contamination.

Edy's, except for the obvious ones like cookie dough. I buy the light ones. Really good.

Haagen Dazs creme brulee, can't have it anymore because of the casein though. All their flavors are gluten free except for the obvious. Chocolate sorbet for the others like me who need casein free.

I buy Breyers since it is a Unilever company and will disclose gluten products in the ingredient label.

I always go with Haagen Dazs too, but some of the not so obvious ones have gluten like Tripple Chocolate (there is wheat flour in the truffles) so you need to always read labels.

My favorite flavors are Mango, Mayan Chocolate, and Dulce De Leche

Haagen Dazs creme brulee...I keep pints of that in my freezer. The best comfort food. Carla I am sorry to hear you can no longer have it.

Breyers, Edy's, Ben & Jerry's are all my favorite. I also found Hersheys Cotton Candy ice cream that I love.

Chapman's buckets has Gluten Free right on the lid, and all of their smaller boxes will have gluten free before the end of the year. Very good ice cream.

I don't know if you can get it in the US though

I don't do dairy now, but when I did--Edy's was hands-down the favorite too. If you go on their website--they identify gluten-free flavors as gluten-free in the description.

Has anyone tried the new Breyer's Cyclones? As far as I know, there is only 1 flavor we can have (caramel cup swirl or something like that), but mmmm is it good! I missed the "Blizzard" type treats, and this is pretty darn tasty.

Now that I am eating dairy again I can't wait to try these.

My favorites are:

Haagen Dazs - Coffee Ice Cream (yet ironicly I hate coffee), Rocky Road

Ben & Jerry's - Chunky Monkey, Cherry Garcia and my latest discovery by them, Pistachio.

If you like Pistachio ice cream (even if you normally don't but you like pistachios), you must try this. It is the most incredible pistachio ice cream ever. It has whole pistachios in it and it's not that scary green color. It's become my new favorite.

I eat Open Original Shared Link. I don't eat much soy, but this is one case where I make an exception. It's very, very low in fat and calories and tastes amazing. I think their "Swiss Dark Chocolate" flavor is the best tasting chocolate ice cream I've tried in a long time.

:D

Chapman's in a box is marked Gluten Free as well as Peanut/Nut free - all important in our family. The taste is great and lots of variety.

Perry's has a lot of gluten-free flavors, and now have gluten-free clearly labelled on the package! Edy's is yummy as well.

I am absolutely in love with Ben and Jerry's Chunky Monkey. Just the thought of it brings on the drool! :ph34r: I think my husband wants to take out stock in their company. Also Blue Bunny is good. I'm a vanilla type person so I don't try too many of the different flavors they have.

I've had gluten-like reactions to even the most basic Breyer's and Hagen-Dazs flavors (including the ones that Wild Oats Grocery (this is a grocery local to Portland, OR, USA I think) says are gluten-free). I'm wondering if I'm dairy intolerant? I may have to look at that...

Has anyone else had reactions to ice creams that are designated gluten-free?

As an ice cream lover I'm addicted to Soy Delicious and WholeSoy brands, all flavors gluten free and casien free. Ever tried taking casien out of your diet? If you're finding reactions to other dairy foods good chance you cant have casien (milk protien) either.

Thanks Nellie. I haven't had reactions to cheese ('cept lots of snot). I tried Haagen Dazs' Dulche de Leche last night and it treated me just fine. Must have been something else I was eating at the same time.

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      thank you for your advice. I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated. I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

      I am new here but celiac disease is not new to me. I was diagnosed with it at age 60. At the time I weighed a whopping 89 pounds. I was so ignorant to celiac so I buried myself in learning all about it and looking for food I could eat. I lost so much weight and stayed sick all the time. So to combat the sickness I was give all sorts of meds for loose bowels...

I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      I am new here but celiac disease is not new to me. I was diagnosed with it at age 60. At the time I weighed a whopping 89 pounds. I was so ignorant to celiac so I buried myself in learning all about it and looking for food I could eat. I lost so much weight and stayed sick all the time. So to combat the sickness I was give all sorts of meds for loose bowels and vomiting. All that just made me sicker. Eventually I chucked it all and went back to eating like I had all my life. Now I am from the south and biscuits and gravy are a big part of our food, as are breaded foods, pasta, and sandwich bread. Through the years I would try to do the gluten free thing again and am doing it now. It has not helped any. Within and hour of eating I have to run to the bathroom. I am now 75 and am wondering if I should just forget it and eat what I like, take Immodium and live the best I can. I cannot eat before going anywhere for fear of embarrassing myself. Family and church dinners are out of the question unless I eat and run straight home. I am so frustrated I just want to sit down and cry or throw something. Does everyone go through all this?
