I would love a box of chocolates for valentines day! My dh got a box of chocolates for the holiday and I wanted one so badly :angry: But they were Russell Stover and had a produced in the same facility as wheat warning so I avoided them (had already been glutened and feeling horrible).

Does anyone know of a carmel and nut mix of boxed chocolates that are safe?

Thanks,

Hez

That's a good question. I would be interested in knowing that answer. I do know that NECCO candy hearts are gluten free.

Just looked it up. Russell Stover is gluten free, with the exception of cookie type candies.

I wonder if the statement was a cya? Anyone had issues with Russel Stover?

Thanks,

Here is what Russell Stover says on their website-

Do your products contain gluten?

Answer:

To the best of our knowledge, our products are gluten free

I just saw at Wal-Mart both Whitman's and Russel Stover's have Organic boxed chocolates that say GLUTEN-FREE right on the front! Very cool! I think that both companies use shared equipment for their regular boxed chocolates, but the ORGANIC ones must be different. Yay! (I bought them for myself, I'm not waiting for Valentine's Day :P )

Somone just posted that Ghiradelli chocolates are gluten-free - the company response was pretty thorough, too. Can't remember which category had the thread.

Maybe they have a valentine's assortment out there?

I'll try to check it out when I hit the grocery this week.

      Wheat Straw Dishes

      By SophiesMom · Posted

      I have been looking for new dishes. I was surprised to find dishes made of wheat straw. Are these safe for us? I'm very careful to avoid products that may contain gluten. I never thought I might have to check for wheat in dishes.

      IgA levels - What do they mean?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Hope07! The reference range would refer to what is considered normal in healthy people. So, 7 or less would mean there is no indication of "active" celiac disease. Apparently, you are doing very will in avoiding gluten. The "Tissue Transglutaminase IGA" is the centerpiece antibody test that clinicians run when checking for celiac disease. My only reservation would be that whenever the TTG-IGA test is run, a "total IGA" test should also be run to check for IGA deficiency. When IGA deficiency is present, other IGA tests, such as the TTG-IGA can be artificially low and result in false positives. In the absence of any symptoms indicating your celiac disease is not under control, however, I would take the result you posted at face value.

      Cruise and GliadinX

      By StevieP. · Posted

      Going on a cruise next week and I’m a celiac. Bought a bottle of GliandinX. Should I just take two tablets per day as a precaution? Never tried this before!! Any help is appreciated!!

      IgA levels - What do they mean?

      By Hope07 · Posted

      Hola! Not sure if I’m asking this in the right place so apologies if not! I just had a full blood count as part of my first check up after being diagnosed with celiac disease 7 years ago!! With Covid lockdowns then living in Spain for 3 years and now back in the UK, I kept getting missed in the system but finally I’ve had a check up! Does anyone know what this means?  Tissu transglutaminase IgA lev:  0.30 U/ml Reference range:  Below 7 Thank you!
