Trouble With Mi-del Ginger Snaps

[queenofhearts]

I was so happy to discover these in the gluten-free section of Whole Foods, since ginger snaps are my favorite cookie. I like their spicy flavor, but several times now I've felt not-so-great after eating them. I've passed them on to my gluten-eating family, but I'm curious if others have had this reaction? I've only been gluten-free for 2 months now & not really sure when (if) I get glutened-- no clear symptoms-- but there definitely seems to be a pattern here, snaps= upset. I know they are produced in a wheat facility, so I guess there could be cc. Any thoughts?

I've actually eaten them without problems in the past. Do you have any other food allergies?

Not that I know of... it's weird... I bake using all sorts of different flours & haven't had problems. I'll have to scrutinize the ingredients & see if there's something unusual in these that I haven't used. I haven't noticed big problems with cc in other products with the "wheat in this facility" warning, either. I suppose it could just be a coincidence, since I haven't had them many times... just seems surprisingly predictable so far...

yep, had the exact same experience. i was really excited to discover 'em, tried them out right away, and felt the familiar brain fog and threw them out immediately. Can't say for certain that they're trouble, but didn't react well personally. In fact, I've had problems with Mi-Del's chocolate chip pecan cookies too. Bummer, because they taste really good.
