Rice Krispies have barley malt, so yes that is probably it. Also skittles are fine, though I don't know about the jellybeans

jelly bellies are fine; rice crispies are right out due to barley malt.

Just remember reeses peanut butter cups shaped like little eggs have wheat flour in them.

Rice Crispies are not gluten-free. I was pretty sure Skittles were. Daughter eats them all the time. Not sure about the Cadbury. We're allergic to other ingredients in most chocolates. I think (but am not sure) the Jelly Beans you bought are subject to CC.

As for gluten-free Jelly Beans, we get the Starburst or the Jolly Rancher.

Did you buy the original jellybeans? My bag doesn't have "gluten free" on it and it has "food starch-modified" in the ingredients. Do you think it's still fine?

All of the Jelly Belly brand jelly beans are gluten free. I eat skittles all the time...it is currently my candy of choice since my original (twizzlers) is definitely out of the question.

      Yeah, that one is always hard, especially since life seems to revolve around food. That happened to me 2 weeks ago with hibachi and with Hungarian hot dogs. I used to be more picky, but now I would love to try all the things if I could. On the bright side, my husband is absolutely wonderful with it, and his mom often brings a few certified gluten-free things to family get-togethers just for me (and tries to make sure main dishes are safe too). Having the people closest to you be supportive can make a huge difference.

      I hear you. My extended family is very good about factoring in my celiac disease safety needs when making family celebration meal plans but sometimes it breaks down in the spur of the moment decisions to "Oh, let's go out and get some teriyaki" or the like. Especially when my brother in law comes into town 'cause he's pretty particular about what he likes to eat. So, sometimes I just say, "You guys go ahead without me. I'll find some leftovers." But, still, I admit to feeling a little left out at such times and a little like a 5th wheel.

      Same, and I appreciate your comments. I just needed to get it off my chest. Sometimes, even when its a genuine mistake, it can feel all too hurtful and I didn't want to go back to work tomorrow still in my feelings. 
    • trents
      Yes, probably slipped his mind. Grace is in order here is my thought.

      I should have added that, while I dont have access during the meetings, I do as soon as I leave them (same for him) so I would have seen before I even left work. He has my number since we've needed to coordinate by cell a few times for work and other stuff. I usually have a protein bar or two in my desk for emergencies so I could have grabbed one of those and gone to meet them at the right restaurant.  Someone else decided on the change of restaurant and it must have slipped his mind that I wasn't coming back to my desk.
