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.

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.
