Oooohhhh,

My mom is thinking of joining again. I might just have to have her buy some. Not worth it for me to join.

I saw them too! I think it was a pack of 3 flavors...I only remember one: Cherry Pie (I remember because I was so excited as it's my favorite!)

There are three flavors in their variety pack- chocolate coconut chew, apple pie and cherry pie. My mom (non-celiac) tried the apple pie one today and LOVED it- and she is very picky about bars b/c she doesnt like sweet things. I think they are good, but i have to say my absolute favorite is Clif Nectar bars-- i love those. But still, its totally exciting to find a gluten free bar at Costco!

I didn't think Larabars were gluten-free... hmmmm they used to be one of my favorite snacks... (admitedly I haven't checked them, I just assumed something THAT GOOD couldn't be gluten-free! LOL!)

NEVERMIND!!!! LOL!!!! I was thinking of something else... Of course Larabars are gluten-free... DUH!!!!! (can you tell I'm not awake yet this morning???)

I'm going to have to look for them this week. I love Lara bars (and so do the kids). I keep a couple in the diaper bag just in case someone gets hungry. I keep telling my mom that I want to try to buy them by the box....now I can ;)

They bother my stomach, for some reason, but I loved the Banana Cookie and the Pecan Pie flavors. The Ginger one is very good, also. :)

Did I just get a bad batch? I tried the chocolate coconut chew, and I thought it was horrible. Really. It had this very strong metallic/alcohol flavor. Not sure where that came from. I checked the ingredients, and couldn't find anything to explain that. I tried a bite from 2 different bars ( I had bought a bunch) and threw the rest out. I was very disappointed. :(

As far as I can tell, though, Tiger's Milk bars are gluten-free--and they are yummy and delicious!

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes and goes randomly as before again.
