Krogers Mislabeled Ice Cream- Warning

i got this from someone in the support group and I thought I would pass it along:

"I bought Kroger Deluxe Butter Zinger ice cream b/c it was labeled

gluten free. After we had already tried it, I read the ingredients

and found they included malt. I called Kroger and they said it was

mislabeled and was NOT gluten free. They returned my money plus some

($5 rebate). Can you please share this information with our group

just in case any one else purchased it without checking the ingredient

list first. Danielle did not have a reaction to the one bowl of it

she had, so it must be a very small amount of gluten as she's usually

pretty sensitive to it.

Thanks!"

Wow...thanks for the warning!

I know it sounds weird, but barley never caused a bad reaction in me either. I never intentionally ate it, but a long time ago, Quaker had these ricecakes called Cracker Jack. They probably still do. Anyways, at the time, unbeknowst to me, they had 2 different Cracker Jacks. I knew the Cracker Jacks ricecakes were gluten-free, but I didn't realize there were 2 of them...I had been buying the wrong one, and it contained barley. My sister caught my mistake, and we were both shocked that I didn't have any symptoms to the barley, not that it wasn't doing any harm, I just didnt react. Sad huh?

I'm glad you found it...thanks for informing others!

wow, if we didn't already have enough motivation to read the ingredients obsessively!

I seem to react even more to barley than to wheat (my aha! moment was a bad and immediate reaction to barley soup). Maybe literally diving into the barley bins (like an indoor open silo) as a kid at my cousins' farm had something to do with this?

good to know!

I also react to barley worse than wheat...my reaction ever pre DX came from a sandwhich on rye bread with barley soup...can you say gluten overload? but barley def. makes me sickest. however I have a celiac friend who has almost no reaction to barley (confirmed by bloods and repeat endo) and intentionally eats a little sometimes (not that I condone this or think this is a good idea!!!! I would NEVER try it!)

      Thanks for the thoughtful reply and links, Wheatwacked. Definitely some food for thought. However, I would point out that your linked articles refer to gliadin in human breast milk, not cow's milk. And although it might seem reasonable to conclude it would work the same way in cows, that is not necessarily the case. Studies seem to indicate otherwise. Studies also indicate the amount of gliadin in human breast milk is miniscule and unlikely to cause reactions:  https://www.glutenfreewatchdog.org/news/gluten-peptides-in-human-breast-milk-implications-for-cows-milk/ I would also point out that Dr. Peter Osborne's doctorate is in chiropractic medicine, though he also has studied and, I believe, holds some sort of certifications in nutritional science. To put it plainly, he is considered by many qualified medical and nutritional professionals to be on the fringe of quackery. But he has a dedicated and rabid following, nonetheless.

      I'd be very cautious about accepting these claims without robust evidence. The hypothesis requires a chain of biologically unlikely events: Gluten/gliadin survives the cow's rumen and entire digestive system intact. It is then absorbed whole into the cow's bloodstream. It bypasses the cow's immune system and liver. It is then secreted, still intact and immunogenic, into the milk. The cow's digestive system is designed to break down proteins, not transfer them whole into milk. This is not a recognized pathway in veterinary science. The provided backup shifts from cow's milk to human breastmilk, which is a classic bait-and-switch. While the transfer of food proteins in human breastmilk is a valid area of study, it doesn't validate the initial claim about commercial dairy. The use of a Dr. Osborne video is a major red flag. His entire platform is based on the idea that all grains are toxic, a view that far exceeds the established science on Celiac Disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and a YouTube video from a known ideological source is not that evidence."

      Some backup to my statement about gluten and milk. Some background.  When my son was born in 1976 he was colicky from the beginning.  When he transitioned to formula it got really bad.  That's when we found the only pediactric gastroenterologist (in a population of 6 million that dealt with Celiac Disease (and he only had 14 patients with celiac disease), who dianosed by biopsy and started him on Nutramegen.  Recovery was quick. The portion of gluten that passes through to breastmilk is called gliadin. It is the component of gluten that causes celiac disease or gluten intolerance. What are the Effects of Gluten in Breastmilk? Gliaden, a component of gluten which is typically responsible for the intestinal reaction of gluten, DOES pass through breast milk.  This is because gliaden (as one of many food proteins) passes through the lining of your small intestine into your blood. Can gluten transmit through breast milk?

      I don't know of a connection. Lots of people who don't have celiac disease/gluten issues get shingles.

      I’m 43, just newly diagnosed with a horrible case of shingles last week . They are all over my face , around my eye, ear , all in my scalp. Lymph nodes are a mess. Ear is a mess. My eye is hurting and sensitive. Pain has been a 10/10+ daily. Taking Motrin and Tylenol around the clock. I AM MISERABLE. The pain is unrelenting. I just want to cry.   But Developing shingles has me a bit concerned about my immune system which also has me wondering about celiac and if there’s a connection to celiac / gluten and shingles; particularly since I haven't been 💯 gluten free because of all the confusing test results and doctors advice etc., is there a connection here? I’ve never had shingles and the gluten/ celiac  roller coaster has been ongoing for a while but I’ve had gluten off and on the last year bc of all the confusion
