The same thing happened to me also. Now, I have been buying heavy cream and making my own cool whip.

Just get a blender and whip it up for a few minutes. Its just has good as cool whip.

it is gluten free. kraft lists all allergens including gluten and will not hide anything

Cool Whip is gluten-free. It does, however, contain casein. Could you be sensitive to that?

or corn, too... a lot of celiacs are sensitive to corn, and i am pretty sure it has corn syrup.

I agree that it may be a dairy sensitivity.

I know this isn't a really good alternative, but if you can eat eggs, maybe whip up some egg whites and powdered sugar, Xylitol, or Stevia (if that works for meringue). I suppose an egg replacer may also work, though I haven't tried.

There are creams made with rice, so maybe one of those can be whipped. I don't have a sweet tooth at all, so sugary stuff isn't "my thing". Though I've never had any trouble making stuff for special occasions. I know meringue is easy enough, as is whipped cream.

I think Cool Whip has soybean oil in it as well. Soy can be very hard for many to digest as well...

      And the fact is, no two celiacs will necessarily respond the same to gluten exposure. Some are "silent" celiacs and don't experience obvious symptoms. But that doesn't mean no harm is being done to their gut. It just means it is subclinical.

      Thank you, Trents.  I appreciate your helpful and friendly reply. It seems more likely to be a bug.  It has been a pretty severe bought. I feel that I don’t have enough experience to know what signs my little one shows after exposure to gluten.

      Hannah24, be aware that if you are on a gluten free diet, you will invalidate any further testing for celiac disease (except genetics) and would need to go back to eating significant amounts of gluten for weeks or months to qualify for valid testing.

      Hello, @Hannah24 Have you had a DNA test done?  Celiac Disease is genetic.  You must have at least one gene to develop celiac disease.  You don't have to be consuming gluten for a genetic test.   Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can cause false negatives.  Some lucky people are seronegative, but still have celiac disease.  Peripheral neuropathy, tingling in hands and feet are symptoms of vitamin deficiencies.  Vitamin C, Thiamine B1, Niacin B3, Pyridoxine B6, and Cobalamine B12 can each cause peripheral neuropathy.  These same vitamins are needed to produce blood cells.  Most undiagnosed Celiacs suffer from nutritional deficiencies. The DNA test would be helpful.

      We do hear of cases of remission but they generally eventually revert back. I wouldn't push your luck.
