when i searched them for some other reason, i saw quite a few people saying they got sick from them....does anybody know the deal on that? because all of their products are gluten-free and it's a dedicated facility, but i was just wondering :P

The reason I stopped buying the chocolate chip pamela's cookies was b/c they had tapioca flour/starch in them. Before I knew that tapioca f/s was making me feel sick -- I was feeling sick from eating one cookie. So I don't know for sure if it was the tapioca only I was reacting to or that plus something else.

We haven't had any problems.

I absolutely love all of Pamela's cookies and mixes, especially the yellow cake mix. I've never had any issues with the brand but alot of people on this forum are allergic to additional ingredients and thus that's got to be the reason they don't by Pamela's, but if gluten is your only allergy, Pamela's is a fabulous choice.

I have no problem, other than the sugar bother my teeth if I have too many :lol: . I have reacted to midel's gluten-free cookies though

I love them and have never had a problem. I use the shortbread ones to make pie crust... yum.

I know some people who reacted to them, but it turned out to be the soy in the chocolate.

Its not really a "recipe" as such, but its yummy. I use it most with my pumpkin pie, and have learned I have to make two, as all the non-gluten-free people eat it up.

I take a box of cookies per pie plate (plain shortbread is best, but the pecan ones will do in a pinch if you pick out the bigger nuts). Crumble them up in a bowl, then add 1/4 tsp or so melted butter. Smoosh into the pie plate to form the crust then bake for about 5 minutes in a 350 degree oven to set it (watch it, as it will burn fast if left too long). Any part of the crust that is exposed during baking of the pie may overcook a little, so I try to make sure my innards lap over the edge or are even.

Be warned, its addictively good.

elonwy, would LOVE to know what you do for the pie crust. Do you just crush, mix w/ melted butter and bake??

ETA: sorry - didn't read far enough into the thread. Was too excited about the prospects

Ive been using almond meal/flour for pie crust with good results. I mix a cup of almond flour with 2 tlb of coconut oil and a few tlb of my homemade nut yogurt (but any yogurt should work fine). Press it into the pie pan....fill with fruit and bake for 30 minutes.

I have to be careful because some of them, the mixes in particular, have potato flour or starch in them. But I LOVE the ones I can eat. The organic peanut butter chocolate chip cookies are TO DIE FOR! They're better than any other cookie gluten-free or not on the market I think. You have to try those if you haven't already and can handle the ingredients.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.
    • Scott Adams
      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
