I'm sorry! I have no idea, I've never heard of it. I had some dreyers the other day that was gluten-free though, it was sooooo good. I haven't had ice cream since all this started, i've probably had better, but that was the best friggin ice cream I had ever eaten!!! Do they have a web-site? I'd be searching if I were you!

My daughter has it all the time and loves it - if I recall correctly, there are a couple flavors that are not gluten free (cookie pieces, etc.). There are two flavors she really likes. I think the names are Cherry Nirvana and Peanut Butter ZigZag.

You might also try "Good Karma" brand Rice Cream. I think their website is www.goodkarmafoods.com. Their carrot cake flavor is really good.

I can't help but think we oregonians are getting the shaft with this gluten business! I can only think of two places, one of which is 40 miles away, that have gluten free menus. I have heard of all sorts of places that have theese menus, but they aren't around here. Just had to whine. :angry:

I've eaten it without problems. According to their website they only make gluten-free, dairy-free stuff, so I can't imagine how they could have CC.

good karma is completely gluten-free.

they dont make anything that isnt gluten-free.

so no issue of cc there.

i also eat turtle mountain "so delicious" and "purely decadent" without any problems and im super sensitive!

they are super careful about cc. you can read their statment on their

products and website.

hope you enjoy them!!!

I eat their chocolate and vanilla all the time. I reacted once to the cherry nirvana. I suspect that for those flavors in the "smaller" containers they have shared lines. I know they use the ELISA test for their products, but for me that still doesn't cut it. The tiniest bit sets me off.

Am I mistaken, or does Turtle Mountain also make non-dairy "ice creams" with a rice source?

Anybody know?

Generally, I like their products, and their website shows that they go to great lengths to provide complete ingredient/"allergen" information. I was THRILLED when I saw in their chart (at www.turtlemountain.com) that the "Purely Decadent . . . Turtle Tracks" flavor did not contain gluten. Caramel, at last, I thought . . . . HOWEVER, I ate it on several different occasions and had several unusual reactions that I think were related to celiac disease. I wrote to the company to inquire about a possible error in their chart, but received no response.

There was nothing really definitive about my reactions, but they occurred in the same way every time I ate this product. Despite an "off the charts" antibody count, I've never had really severe celiac disease symptoms, so it's not always immediately clear to me that I am reacting to gluten. In any event, I suspect gluten is present in the Turtle Tracks flavor. I could be wrong.

      Son's legs shaking

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin. He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her...

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.
