Jelly Bellies

I've read that Jelly Bellies are gluten-free with the exception of the buttered popcorn flavor. So what do you do about the mixed bags? Won't all the jelly bellies be contaminated if there's a buttered popcorn one in there? And if you buy them separately, I don't see how they can all be CC-free is there's one flavor that has gluten. I'm just confused on this issue... and I do love my jelly bellies...

All Jelly Belly flavors are now gluten-free. Buttered toast used to have gluten but it never was in the mixes.

I love Jelly Bellies and was happy they were gluten-free, but I have recently found a brand that makes me even happier called Gimbals. It is much cheaper and marked on the back

"Kosher,Pareve Nut and peanut free, gelatin free, trans fat free, gluten free, dairy free and egg free. "

Good quality, good price, and certifies gluten-free dedicated factory they are my kind of candy maker. I found them at wally world but I am sure they are around other places also.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
