Newbie With A Craving.......reese's Peanut Butter Cup


Motorboater

I've only been diagnosed 3 months via biopsy and I'm craving a Reese's Peanut Butter cup. I bought a package of the Halloween 6 pack pumpkins and nothing on the ingredient label jumped out at me not to eat........but I did see a phone # on the package (800-468-1714) and decided to call, they couldn't tell me that the cups were gluten free however they also couldn't tell me what ingredient was "bad" for celiac's. They advised me to contact the Celiac Assoc. which I thought was odd. Does anyone know what ingredient I need to stay away from? The ingredients are:

peanuts, sugar, dextrose, vegetable oil (cocoa butter:palm, shea,sunflower and or safflower oil), chocolate, nonfat milk, salt, whey (milk), partially hydrogenated vegtable oil (palm kernel and palm oil), corn syrup, soy lecithin, cornstarch, glycerin, tbhq (preservative), pgpr, emulsifier, vanillin, artificial flavor ........any help would be great!

Those ingredients look fine to me...I eat Reese's cups all the time.

You got a representative who was poorly trained, and didn't know what the correct answer was.

Wheat is required to be listed by law, and Hershey's (I believe) is good about not hiding any gluten.

I eat Reece's Peanut Butter Cups. They are gluten-free.

The area you have to be very careful (especially this time of year,Halloween), are the miniatures. Alot of miniatures of otherwise gluten-free chocolate bars quite often contain gluten. Don't ask me why, though....... <_<

I eat and love them :) Enjoy

The lines aren't cleaned between the batches of miniatures and the gluten-containing candies are processed along with the non-gluten candies so the CC risk is high.

if cross contamination is a possibility they will put it on the label.

I live on them everyday. They are my breakfast with my coffee. Never been sick from a RPBC! Gotta love them.

      Thiamine interacts with all the other B vitamins.  Thiamine and B 6 make a very important enzyme together. With more thiamine and other vitamins available from the supplements your body is absorbing the ones you need more of.  The body can control which vitamins to absorb or not.  You're absorbing more and it's being transported through the blood.   It's common to have both a Thiamine and a Pyridoxine deficiency.  Keep taking the B Complex. This is why it's best to stop taking supplements for six to eight weeks before testing vitamin levels.

      Yes I took a supplement that had B6 in it, low dosage though. I've stopped taking that. B1 doesn't affect other B vitamin levels?

      Have you tried lip balm made from tallow?  It's been used for thousands of years and works better than those with waxes. I prefer Vintage Traditions brand tallow balm products.

      Are you taking a B 6 supplement or a supplement containing B 6 like a B Complex?  Do you have pins and needles in your toes?   Don't worry about the thiamine being high.  The blood is a transport system that carries thiamine to the cells so they can store it.  It's fine.

      Quick question, had some blood tests done again and once again my zinc was too low but now ofcourse my B1 was too high and so was my B6. The doc said to  immediately  stop all supplements that contain B6. Can using thiamine raise the levels of B6 too?
