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.

Ooh, sorry.

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:

found good karma organic rice cream at co-op for only 2.50 so i picked some up.. nevr any cc issuse right?

i ate some anyways, omg so goood, i hope it dont make me sick but i really dont care it tastes soooo good, i crushed up some fudge cookies from enjoy life into it, ahhh mouth salivating

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.

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?
