Hershey's Cordial Cherry Kisses Gluten Free?

I was wondering if anyone knows if these are gluten free. I called Hershey, went to their Web site, and could not find anything. We have some, and since we got them in a gift bag, I do not have the ingredient list. This is so frustrating! Can anyone tell me if these are safe? Also, if I understand correctly, Hershey's miniatures are NOT safe. I would appreciate some info. Thanks.

Sincerely,

They are safe, I go nuts with them, I have been eating them since before Christmas.

As for Hershey's miniatures, the "problem" is that one kind, the one with cripsies in it, is not gluten-free and it's in the bag with the rest. The others are in fact gluten-free, at least the last time I looked. It's your choice as to whether or not to eat them.

Dear blueeyedmanda, Byteme, and lovegrove,

I really appreciate your help. I was afraid to eat them! It is better to be safe than sorry! Yay! So, I can eat the miniature Dark Chocolate Bar, too! I knew anything with krispies were a no-go already. Stupid barley malt! Wahoo! Thank you so much!

Sincerely,

I have some left in a cup on my desk and I keep it hidden....from myself. I can eat them one after another. I have no control. :)

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.
    • Scott Adams
      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
