Possible Wheat Containing Cookie In My Midel Bag


glutenfreeincalifornia

Recommended Posts

Hi, I am new to this forum and I wanted to find out if anyone experienced what I did. After we ate an entire bag of Midel Pecan Gluten Free Cookies I found a black octagon shaped cookie or possibly cracker (I am pretty sure it was a cookie).

Has anyone found another kind of cookie in a Midel bag?

Has anyone seen a Midel product with a black octagon shape?

I checked out their website and did not see the product. I also looked at the Panos Brands website to see what other brands they have beside Mi Del and could not find one with that black octagon shaped cookie. The cookie was small, probably bite size.

I emailed the company and I am hoping that they reply soon so I can know what it was.

The company states on their website and on the package that they are produced in a facility that processes wheat, so I am guessing that the cookie contained wheat, as none of their gluten free products look like that cookie.

We did not have any noticeable signs of getting sick or gluten exposure.

If anyone has any information about this, please reply to this post.

Thanks!

Depending on how big it was, they do make a gluten free chocolate-caramel bite-size cookie, or it could just be a burnt cookie too.

Definitely NOT a burnt cookie. It was small black and octagon shaped. It looked like the same kind of dough that is used for an oreo type cookie, however it wasn't shaped like one. It was a bite sized, hexagon shape.

I looked on the Mi Del site, and also their parent company Panos Brands. None of their products listed look like that cookie. None of the gluten free products look like that cookie in the slightest bit.

I have emailed them and am waiting a response.

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.

      While it's always important to approach internal use of essential oils with caution and ideally under the guidance of a qualified professional, your experience highlights the potential of complementary approaches when traditional medicine falls short. Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living, particularly for managing systemic inflammation and its various symptoms, so sharing your story is valuable. Your observation that it may also be helping with bloating is fascinating, as that could point to an overall reduction in inflammation. Thank you for sharing what is working for you!
