Hershey's

Do you have to worry about cross contanimation with Hershey's? The other day I was in the store and I saw a Hershey's baking chocolate bar and it only had two ingredients which were chocolate and cocoa. I was so excited because it didn't have soy and I haven't had chocolate in forever. I almost bought it but then worried that I might have to worry about CC with it.

I haven't had any problems with Hershey's products that I know of. I'm still not healed though so I couldn't say for sure!

I believe Hershey's is one of the company's with good labeling. I don't usually eat alot of Hershey's because that where I am from, and sometimes you need the change of scenery :)

Thank you guys so much for the info. I really appreciate it. I think I am going to treat myself this weekend. I haven't had any junk food, at all, in quite a while.

Hershey's is planning on manufacturing/ processing some of their products in Mexico. They are closing some of their plants in the US and Canada. I e-mailed the company and they said only 10% of the products will be manufactured/ processed in Mexico.

We will have to look into this matter further to determine what products are involved and if we can trust them to be safe.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.

      I was just diagnosed at 26 after accidental finding. Any simple tips for newbies? Things a non celiac would never think of? I already went through my prescriptions and identified some medications that have gluten. Is there a beginners guide? Celiac for dummies?

      Would it be rude to ask your age?

      Wow! Thank you @trents I  really appreciate the responses. This line of diagnosis has me questioning a lot of symptoms over the course of my life. Very validating and very much a bummer at the same time.
