Does anyone know what brand names of ice cream are gluten free? My favorite is Stroh's Caramel Nut Cluster.

Some of the Wegmans flavors are, and they list it on their container...I enjoy the Creme Brulee.

I think it depends on what kind of ice-cream you want. Cookies and Cream almost always has gluten. I just bought Shure Fine ice-cream the other night and it was chocolate chip flavored, and on the back of the label under all the ingredients it said that their product was made in a plant that produces nuts and then it said "Gluten Free" under that!! I was so excited. It seems as though more and more companies are starting to realize that they should put Gluten Free on products that don't have gluten!!

Look around a bit you may be surprised by how many products say Gluten free on the label :)

I have never heard of Stroh's before, must not be in this area. Turkey Hill doesn't hide ingredients and all are gluten-free except for the obvious ones, like cookie dough, etc. Breyers are mostly all gluten-free, most Kroger ice cream is gluten-free, except for the obvious, as is Edy's, Friendly's, I have never had trouble with Blue Bells, but I never buy anything without reading the labels anymore! Most ice creams are gluten-free, except for the obvious ones and those always look so good. :(

If you have Turkey Hill products near you, they are definitely safe so long as you read the label. Mmmmmm.... My favorite ice creams EVER!

I eat Edy's Slow Churned light ice cream. On their website you can do a search for gluten-free products. They're very good and I've not gotten sick from them.

I've yet to find an ice cream where gluten was hidden. Maybe there are some, but I haven't seen them.

My husband had a HUGE laugh at me the other day, I was sitting there reading through a LONG label of non-english words :ph34r: , then right there at the end it said "gluten-free" Shouldn't have taken so long to read that one! :lol:

BTW, I like Breyers (most flavors) and Ben and Jerry's (double chocolate fudge (I think)). Hershey also told me that all their vanilla based ones (except the ones with obvious wheat things) were gluten-free, but they wouldn't guarantee chocolate based.

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve. thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring. Thankfully she has an amazing and experienced pediatrician. And yesss I forgot to mention the poo...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies. Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree. Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant. That may happen even with endoscopy. Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end...

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1. Genetic testing. Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With...

      here are the lab ranges. Normal ranges for tissue transglutaminase are: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected normal for endomysial antibody is < 1.5. So she is barely positive but still positive.

      Just diagnosed today

      I have been diagnosed with coeliacs disease today after endoscopy, bloods and CT scan. I have also been diagnosed with Mesenteric Panniculitis today. Both of which I believe are autoimmune diseases. I have been told I will need a dexa scan and a repeat CT scan in 6 months. I had not even heard of Mesenteric Panniculitis till today. I don’t know much about i...

She has the weirdest poop issues.    How long did it take y'all to start seeing improvement in symptoms?

In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.
