Got Glutened From Jello Pudding Cup

It was the sugar free reduced calorie Moccachino (or something to that effect) one. I attributed it to cc from something else I'd eaten the first time, as the ingredients all looked safe, but I got glutened again after eating one last night.

Anyone else have a problem with these? Jello is made by Kraft (I think), so they SHOULD list all gluten containing ingredients on the label. I checked and didn't see anything.

GRRRR. All for a pudding cup that really wasn't that good in the first place. I would have rather eaten something that was actually GOOD if I was going to get sick!

I thought I got sick from the vanilla cups a while ago. It was when I was pretty new to the diet so I wasn't sure if it was something else, but I thought it was the pudding. I haven't had one since because I just didn't want to chance it again.

Is it sweetened with an artificial sweetener? These are so bad for you and maybe you had a reaction.

I eat jello pudding cups alot and have never had a problem. are you sure that its not something else you ate or the artificial sweeteners or a dairy problem

I also eat jello pudding cups all the time with no adverse effects. I will have my b/f look into each flavor though as he is a dairy manager and is very familiar with the companies and their reps

I'm sure it's not the dairy and I consume a fair amount of artificial sweeteners which don't bother me. Plus, I broke out in a rash that only comes up when I've been glutened.

Because the ingredients looked ok, how is Jello on CC? That would be my first guess - not that the ingredients had gluten in them but that it somehow snuck in there from CC.

The sugar free foods often contain sugar alcohols (different, more sweet than sweet n low or equal) that VERY OFTEN give people diarrhea. Check the label for sorbitol, or manitol. Sugar alcohol usually end in -lol.

If you check certian foods, like Atkins Diet Bars that contain sugar alcohols, you will see a warning to avoid comsuming too many, because they cause diarrhea.

I also have never had a problem with anything of Jello. They have proven pretty good with celiacs. Could be another intolerace.

      I did ... But aren't we going to be vitamin deficienct if we are not eating due to being sick ?? If the food we eat is gluten free and we have other sensitivities , how do we get out of the cycle??  Thank you

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.
