I caught the end of the view and they were celebrating Elizabeth's birthday. Baskin Robins made her a gluten free cake and that was mentioned on the show. I just wanted to share.

OH, MAN..........I always tune out too soon. Many days I just watch hot topics and then get on with my day, was not interested in the guests so shut off the TV. I should have stuck with it, I guess. I am interested in the Baskin Robbins cake thing too. Hope there are others with information, but calling them would be the best, I guess. Obviously that show was taped before last Wednesday or Rosie and Elisabeth would not have been sitting next to each other and Rosie would not have given Elisabeth a week at her Miami house as a BD present. Wonder if it will still happen!!!!!!!!! I am going to miss Rosie on that show, I know she gets out of line here and there, but I love her spunk and I also like the rest of the gals. It sure made for an intersting morning at times. I'll sure be watching tomorrow to see what's up with the show. Barbara will surely be there with Joy and Elisabeth. Barbara

I know that B&R makes ice cream cakes that are all ice cream, that are gluten-free. That may have been what they were eating. But it would be super kewl if they would make gluten-free cake/ice cream cakes.

B&R makes gluten-free food? or just cakes?

Generic Apprentice

Only Ice cream and cakes. The 1 thing I have always loved about them is on the name of the ice cream it list, gluten lactose, etc. if it is in it. They have done that for at least 19 years with gluten.

That is very nice and a very big help for us. Thanks for sharing this.

Hi

I try the B&R here in Dade, and Broward county in Florida, and they don't make anything gluten-free. :(

If anyone know of any bakery down here that makes gluten-free stuff please my family would appreciate it very much.

Best regards to everyone.

The gluten-free "cakes" are all ice cream with hot fudege/frosting stuff and nuts. They usually make them with jamoca almond fudge ice cream. Look in the catalog for "all ice cream" cakes. (basicaly they cut a slab off the top of the container, and frost it with hot fudge, frosting, etc.

I have seen some that have them and some that don't, I think the independently owned franchises do whatever they want.

My Baskin-Robbins does not know a thing about gluten. Their ice-cream is full of it; except vanilla maybe? I don't remember the only option I had because I declined, and went to the grocery store for Hagen-Daz strawberry instead. It's a NYC thing to get such luxuries?:huh:

Most of the employees there have no idea what gluten is. If you look at the label with the name on it says "rocky road" for example. Under the name it should say contain,s lactose, nuts. Look at the "Strawberry shortcake" under the name it willl say contains wheat or gluten (depending on the contents of the "shortcake"), lactose, etc.

Rocky Road (large print)

contains.......(small print)

That is how it should be labeled, all the B&R's I have ever been too have been like this. I think it is a corporate policy, unlesss the label was written by hand (which happens on occasion).

I'm not saying that is how they are every where, but saying; you may want to check out the labels, again. You might be pleasantly surprised.

This is there webite. Open Original Shared Link

If the stupid website doen't change it to lame ad. (just search for it on google if it does). You can click on ice cream then the flavor and it will tell you if it has wheat, etc. and the ingredients.

I checked and it says all their cakes have gluten/wheat, I swear I looked at each individual one they have listed. Doesn't matter for us unless they had a sorbet ice cake, we are non dairy.

Generic Apprentice

Then they are not offering the "all ice cream-ice cream cake". It really isn't a cake but a large slab of ice cream with fudge frosting on it. You aren't really missing anything.

natalie Apprentice

In my area ( Ontario ) certain ice creams are gluten-free, but the icing they use to decorate is not.

<_<

That figures.... <_<

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.

      To evaluate the TTG antibody result we’d need to know the normal range for that lab.  Labs don’t all use the same units.  However, based on any normal ranges that I’ve seen and the listed result being greater than a number rather than a specific number, I’d say yes, that is high! Higher than the range where the test can give a quantitative result. You got good advice not to change your diet yet.  If you went gluten free your intestines would start to heal, confusing any further testing,

      Scott is correct….Thank you for catching that!      Direct link for info  of fillers.    http://www.glutenfreedrugs.com/Excipients.htm Link is on 2nd page  of www.glutenfreedrugs.com   Site was started by a pharmacist (or 2) maybe 15-20 yrs ago with LAST updated in  2017.  This makes it’s Drug List so old that it’s no longer relevant. Companies & contacts, along with suppliers &  sources would need to be referenced, same amount effort  as starting with current data on DailyMed      That being said, Excipient List is still be relevant since major changes to product labeling occurred prior ’17.           List is the dictionary that sources the ‘foreign-to-us’ terms used on pharmaceutical labels, terms we need to rule out gluten.    Note on DailyMed INFO— When you look for a specific drug on DailyMed, notice that nearly all of companies (brands/labels) are flagged as a ‘Repackager’… This would seem to suggest the actual ‘pills’ are being mass produced by a limited number of wholesaler suppliers (esp for older meds out of  patent protection.).      If so, multiple repackager-get  bulk shipments  from same supplier will all  be selling identical meds —same formula/fillers. Others repackager-could be switching suppliers  frequently based on cost, or runs both gluten-free & non- items on same lines.  No way to know  without contacting company.     While some I know have  searched pharmacies chasing a specific brand, long-term  solution is to find (or teach) pharmacy staff who’s willing help.    When I got 1st Rx ~8 years ago, I went to Walgreens & said I needed gluten-free.  Walked  out when pharmacist said  ‘How am I supposed  to know…’  (ar least he as honest… ). Walmart pharmacists down the block were ‘No problem!’—Once, they wouldn’t release my Rx, still waiting on gluten-free status from a new supplier. Re: Timeliness of DailyMed info?   A serendipitous conversation with cousin in Mi was unexpectedly reassuring.  She works in office of Perrigo, major products of OTC meds (was 1st to add gluten-free labels).  I TOTALLY lucked out when I asked about her job: “TODAY I trained a new full-time employee to make entries to Daily Med.’  Task had grown to hours a day, time she needed for tasks that couldn’t be delegated….We can only hope majorities of companies are as  conscientious!   For the Newbies…. SOLE  purpose of  fillers (possible gluten) in meds is to  hold the active ingredients together in a doseable form.  Drugs  given by injection or as IV are always gluten-free!  (Sometimes drs can do antibiotics w/ one-time injection rather than 7-10 days of  pills .) Liquid meds (typically for kids)—still read labels, but  could be an a simpler option for some products…

      So I recently had allergy testing for IGE antibodies in response to foods. My test results came back positive to corn, white potatoes, egg whites. Tomatoes, almonds and peanuts to name a few.  I have had obvious reactions to a few of these - particularly tomatoes and corn- both GI issues. I don’t really understand all this allergy versus celiac stuff. If the food allergies are mild do I have to avoid these foods entirely? I don’t know what I will eat if I can’t  have corn based gluten free products

      We have four children (7-14 yo), and our 7 year old was diagnosed with NCGS (though all Celiac labs were positive, her scope at 4 years old was negative so docs in the US won't call it celiac). We have started her on a Gluten Free diet after 3 years of major digestive issues and ruling out just about everything under the sun. Our home and kitchen and myself are all gluten-free. But I have not asked my husband/her dad or her other siblings to go completely gluten-free with us. They are at home, but not out of the home. This has led to situations when we are eating out where she has to consistently see others eating things she can't have and she has begun to say "Well, I can't have <fill in the blank>...stupid gluten."  How have you supported your gluten-free kiddos in the mental health space of this journey, especially young ones like her. I know it's hard for me as an adult sometimes to miss out, so I can't imagine being 7 and dealing with it! Any tips or ideas to help with this?
