Anybody know if TCBY (frozen yogurt) is gluten free. If you know, how did you find out? I am new to this and would like to know how you arrive at the answer. i.e., Is there a website or something?

I can't answer you about the yogurt but I do have a method for checking everything.

The best way I have found to get the answer is to go to Google or another search engine and type in the name of the product and the word gluten. Many times the companies answer will be in the first page of links. I find if I just type in the product without the word gluten I sometimes have a real hard time finding the right place to look for it on the pages. Doesn't always work but it is a good first thing to do if you don't have a package and phone number in front of you.

I did a google search last week for gluten free tcby and I did find information on them. I believe (don't quote me on this)they said that most of their flavors do not contain gluten except for the obvious ones like cookie dough and cheesecake and that all of their sorbet flavors are gluten free. If you do a search for it, the info comes up right away.

I sent TCBY an email once and received back a reply saying that all the flavors that don't include obvious gluten like cookies and cream are gluten free. However, I have had to give up on them - the dairy still bothers me too much and even their sorbets cause me some discomfort. One other thing to watch for - in the TCBY stores I have been in, when it's time to change flavors in a machine they run it down and then put in the next flavor - rarely if ever washing the machine out between flavors. This can lead to cross contamination problems if they switch out flavors very much. Often the vanilla and chocolate machine is always some variation of those two flavors so would be the safest. You may want to ask about that though.

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped baby spinach or celery leaves to add a dash of green color to this red dish. Best eaten in first couple days because flavor tends to fade. Leftovers are still good, but not as vibrant. Ingredients 2 medium eggplants, partially peeled and cut into cubes (original recipe says 1 in, but I prefer 1/2 to 3/4 in) 2 tomatoes, peeled and crushed 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced 1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy harissa (I use Mina brand) 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon paprika ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) Salt to taste Preparation     • Heat olive oil in skillet or pot over medium heat. Add all ingredients and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook on low heat for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.       • Serve warm or cold as a side or with bread for dipping. Enjoy!

      I checked consumer labs that I'm a member of they independently check products for safely and claims the wolfs was rated great and bobs redmill buckwheat cereal. Ultra low gotten no dangerous levels of arsenic heavy metals, mold, yeast etc. plus they mention to refrigerate. I wonder if the raw buckwheat they rinse bc it's not toasted like kasha. Toasted removes the grassy taste I have to try the one you mentioned. I also bought Qia which is a quinoa mixed got great reviews.
