On CA tonight they had to come up with a recipie for a frozen food company. The winning team came up with a gluten free pasta and meatball meal. They kept mentioning how gluten free is such a big thing now due to "wheat allergies" and celiac disease!! you can acually buy the meal at: Open Original Shared Link

Wonder if it's any good!!

AWESOME! Our Schwan's rep comes this week, I think I'll see if he has any of this!

I am so excited. I watch that show and was so glad to hear that they were doing a gluten free dush. My rep will be here Friday and I am going to get several.

I've never bought anything from them except ice cream, years ago. Do they have other gluten free products?

Wasn't that cool? But, we have to check to make sure it's manufactured in a gluten-free facility, right? Besides, I don't live in the U.S., and I don't believe we have Schwan's here in Canada, so I doubt I'd be able to try it anyway. Darn.

I was excited to see that too. My hubby looked it up on the site, but it's out for us with the other allergies. He read me the ingredients before the show was over. :D I was also impressed to see that the price was the same as the other team's dish.

I buy from them regularly. I even get e-mails from them which the one Monday showed the new gluten free item. I always check the web site before I buy and I have talked to them on the phone when the ingredient list isn't too clear. I have never had a negative response from them. I get the chicken breasts, veggies, jumbo shrimp, and have never had any problems.

Well I had the new gluten free dish for dinner, and it's YUMMY! I didn't have super high hopes, as I'm not crazy about quinoa pasta, but this was SO. DANG. GOOD.

The meatballs were awesome, the sauce was great, and the pasta was perfect!

You won't be sorry if you buy some!

My mouth is actually watering. Thanks for letting us know. :P

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
