Anyone know whether the new Dole fruit and yogurt parfaits are gluten-free??

I emailed Dole asking just that question. I have not heard back yet. I will post it when I do.

The ingredients include "Modified Food Starch" which is GENERALLY made form Corn or Maize in US, but it CAN be from Barley. So, I've emailed. I ate one before I noticed it - it was good. No reaction, but I won't eat another until I hear back.

Last I heard the apple caramel flavor was NOT gluten-free.

I'm frustrated with Dole. I also emailed them last Wednesday and have not heard back. I"ve tried calling them several times but got tired of being on hold for a VERY long time each time. It's the "natural flavoring" ingredient I"m concerned about.

Finally heard back from Dole (emai) who said the pineapple & cream parfait and peaches & cream are gluten-free, but the apple & carmel is not.

And that's the one I ate!

I have a few DH blisters and I couldn't figure out why.....

I also ate a whole thing of Mentos mints - I was in a hurry for a breath mint for a meeting, couldn't find TIC TAC's at the CVS I was at, and grabbed Mentos - not thinking - I read the label and LOW AND BEHOLD the 2nd ingredient is "WHEAT GLUCOSE SYRUP"!!!!!!!!!! (what in the world is that?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

So those two items are the source of my glutening!

I recently bought some of these and my ingredients list glucose syrup but not wheat glucose syrup, which if it were from wheat and not from corn the law states wheat must be shown if that's what the syrup is derived from.

Why would the apple not be gluten free? the ingredients are basically the same minus the fruit??

      I was feeling really sick last week, for several days I kept thinking I was getting cross contamination. Typical symptoms like not sleeping well at night and waking up with widespread inflammation in all of my joints, foggy head and of course bowel issues. I had read the article recently that was talking about body products. I was starting to get depressed. I was showering and decided to read the ingredients in the products I've been using. It turns out that two of the ingredients in my conditioning hair mask contain GLUTEN. I felt really stupid for not checking before and I threw that away and also checked the ingredients of everything else I've been using. I've heard of skin issues from gluten containing body products, but this opens up a whole new way if being proactive.

      I haven't taken blood test for deficiencies yet since self diagnosed but I started a Multi vitamin from reading consumerlabs Nature Made Multivitamin For Her 50+ with No Iron, Womens Multivitamin for Daily Nutritional Support, Multivitamin is actually good for men compared to the mens version since im 47 I figured this should be ok. I also just started taking Kirkland Signature Super B-Complex with Electrolytes which consumerlabs which is an independent lab that tests what is actually in it states this is a good balanced B complex vitamin where its not too much of any vitamin for you to take.  I was thinking of taking the Gluten test after the summer  ut I think if I reintroduce gluten for this test I will be so sick and make things worse. I heard there is a blood test coming in a year that they add gluten to the blood to test which would be nice but prob in a year or 2.

      I have been on this gluten-free journey a few months now and I work in a deli so I'm around gluten all day. I noticed sometimes once a day my eyes tear as if I am peeling onions. I think it is an allergy to gluten. Anything to take for this issue? I heard it might be low vitamin so I started to take a multi vitamin that I found from consumerlabs and started a vitamin B complex for energy issue. As I continue my journey 2x this month I have been careful with gluten and ate out 2x that wee gluten friendly and had no issues so now I feel better when I go out the few places I can eat gluten-free and not get sick. However I have been trying to track what triggered me the 2x this month where one time I introduced a gluten-free pretzel PB filled and no other ingredient in it bothered me. The other time I think it might have been due to high fiber intake due to introducing mission gluten-free tortilla wraps. Next week I will be on vacation to LBI and I already scoped out 2 places gluten-free so I am hoping I have a good time with the family. In August we plan on going to Aruba and I found a few gluten-free places as well but I am nervous for any cross contamination especially during flights to and from which makes me nervous. ANy help suggestions. Thanks

      The pharmaceutical industry (including BIG PHARMA! 😉) is very good about cleaning procedures before different drugs might be made using the same machinery. I don't believe cross contamination would be something to worry about, otherwise people with serious allergies, for example to antibiotics, would have serious issues with prescriptions drugs.

      Thanks for sharing that site! Do you know if that site has any information about manufacturing/possible cross contact on it? I can't find it. When I have called manufacturers, most of them say they can't guarantee no cross contact in manufacturing (except Lannett, Mylan and possible Amneal, which aren't available near me).
