Glutened By Green And Blacks 70% Dark Chocolate?

Has anyone ever had an issues with Green and Blacks dark chocolate? I know the ingredients are gluten free, but it does say it was made in a facility that also produces wheat. Anyway, I have been eating it once a week or two for the last few months. No problems at all. Then, I had it two weeks ago. 2 hours later I felt nauseous. By morning I felt better, then ate and got nauseous again. It started to go away and I felt fine. Then, I ate some more(not even suspecting the chocolate at this point.). I ended up throwing up a few hours later. I then continued to be nauseous for a couple days. At this point, I thought I had got a touch of a stomach bug. This past weekend however, (not even suspecting the chocolate) I indulged again. While I was eating it my stomach felt weird. About a half hour later I had diareahha and 3 hours later I vomited. I was again nauseous for a couple days. I am hoping it was contaminated. I just can't be allergic to chocolate. It is my favorite indulgent treat that I eat. Also, looking back I bought Green and Black's vanilla ice cream once and vomited after that as well. It has the same label. Anyone ???

When things are processed on the same equipment as wheat, each batch will have differing levels of gluten. For instance, say they processed a wheat product and the very next product was chocolate. This chocolate would have a lot more gluten in it than if 5 batches of chocolate are run and you get a bar from the 6th batch. IMO

When I was in Australia, the Green & Blacks chocolate (exact same brand and product) had wheat clearly listed as an ingredient. I would assume the ingredients are different in the US since technically US products now must also clearly list wheat, but who knows.....

Green and blacks in the U.S. has a website that says which bars are gluten free. This one is, but may be contaminated. It does not say processed on same equipment, but rather in same facility.

      Going on a cruise next week and I’m a celiac. Bought a bottle of GliandinX. Should I just take two tablets per day as a precaution? Never tried this before!! Any help is appreciated!!

      Good point, as thyroid conditions are more common in those with celiac disease: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/thyroid-pancreatic-disorders-and-celiac-disease/
