Cold Stone Creamery

...Has anyone tried eating here? They have an allergen information list here: Open Original Shared Link but elsewhere on the site it says: "Although we take precautions by cleaning the mixing stone often, we cannot guarantee that residual products containing gluten will not accidentally be mixed into your ice cream." Someone has recommended going there (a non-celiac) but I'm not sure about trying it - I've not had icecream out anywhere in 2 years, I guess I'm scared. Any experiences?

I love Cold Stone! I cant handle dairy so I stopped going there lol. You should go. Explain yourself to the employee, ask them to mix your ice cream up in a bowl (not on the cold stone) and new clean ice cream scoops. Make sure you ask for those items.

They will mix in stuff you bring, I used to take gluten-free brownies, cookies and cheesecake lol, sooo good! And if you choose to mix in a candy bar ask them to open you a new one.

Anytime you eat out there will always be a chance for cc. I try to avoid the icecream that sits next to cookies n cream, etc. I never had a problem with the chocolate, vanilla, sweet cream (my fav) and butter pecan.

I've never ordered anything there, but the last time I went in with my husband, the lady told me she'd open a new container of ice cream for me and use a clean scoop if I wanted. I thought that was so nice, and now that I'm able to handle dairy again (yea!), I plan to go back and take her up on that!

I would check with your local store and see how they can help you. :)

msmini14, I didn't know that you could bring in your own stuff to be mixed in! That's awesome!

I've had Cold Stone since going gluten-free, and I haven't had a problem. The prices OTOH, make me not feel well. :lol: I think they're kind of expensive just for ice cream!

Good luck, GeordieLass!

I've done very well at Cold Stone. They mix my ice cream in a separate container so it isn't mixed on the "cold stone" to prevent cross contamination.

Sweet cream is my fave too!!! I've been trying to buy a quart of it from them but the few times I've stopped by they don't have that flavor in the freezer section.

They will sell you a quart without it being in the freezer section, they should anyway. I made friends with my coldstone people lol. They knew me, it was so funny. I would walk in and they would grab a bowl, they always knew what I was going to order. Was so cool. Ahh I miss them lol, I moved away and again I avoid dairy these days.

Enjoy your icecream, it is worth it! :P

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Flash1970 · Posted

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.
