No, I always use the wicked fatty kind. Did you check their website? I remember somebody posted some gluten-free recipes that were on the site so I'd think they'd be aware...

I use the wicked fatty kind too, but I'm on weight watchers and I hate margerine...ergo...

Anyway, I looked in my clan thompson smartlist (I knew there was a reason I paid for it :rolleyes: ) and it says their light butter isn't gluten-free :(

Dammit <_<

Oh, man, that's terrible. I'd never have thought to question butter... one more thing I'll always have to ask about now. I bet my MIL uses it since she's on a heart diet...

I'm not sure I believe you, clan thompson!!! How could there be gluten in butter?!?!

Oh well, I'll get whipped butter (it's gluten-free), at least that cuts down the pointage a little bit <_<

You know, I checked their website just out of curiosity, & I bet it is actually safe-- the nutrient info they showed had the allergen statement (contains: Milk) & it didn't mention wheat. Isn't that the usual culprit in starch? & I've heard that some of the gluten-free lists automatically eliminate foods that don't specify the starch. But maybe if you call the company on Monday they'll give you the go-ahead, for future buttering anyway...

You know what...good call! They also said in their confusing gluten statement that the label would have the most up to date information...hmm...

Also, the Clan Thompson info for them was from last November

I'll have to look more closely at the label when I'm at wally world tomorrow... :wacko:

Land-of lakes pure butter and unsalted IS GLUTEN FREE.

Read the ingredients in margarine, then read

the same for margarine.........You choose.

If you have an issue with milk problems , butter is out of the question.

(All, if not most of the questions regarding products have been asked before. I would suggest that those that post, do a search on this site first, read the posts and if there is any further questions, please ask away, we are always here._

There is a vast amount of information available here...and it is soooooooo easy to find. :)

Thanks, Momma Goose, but I did a search and it only turned up the stuff about their gluten-free baking recipes, and regular butter...nothing on the light butter. Actually, I take that back, there was the Delphi reference, but that was dated march 05...

I already knew about their regular butters, but I saw that the light butter has modified food starch...no source listed.

I don't have a dairy problem, just a fat problem :lol:

And I hate margarine. Thanks for the info, though.

I always wondered whether their flavored hot chocolates like the vanilla, raspberry, and mint flavors were gluten free...can't find an ingredient listing anywhere

      Oral thrush question

      By JulieRe · Posted

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Oral thrush question

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      Advice while waiting for testing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).
