Name That Gluten!

My dd are sick today, and I'm trying to figure out just where the source of gluten came from. We've tried several new things this week, with school starting and all...and that always gets me. Anyway, here is the small list of new things we've had that may have glutened us.

Hershey's chocolate syrup

Pop Weaver microwave popcorn (from walmart)

Planters honey roasted peanuts

Dr. Pepper, cherry vanilla (we hardly ever drink soda, but I had a craving, lol)

It's been a bad week, we never eat this much new food, b/c I usually know better. Ugh, back to eating white rice and jello for a couple of days. I'm eliminating all of these things now, and my guess is the Hershey's syrup, what do you guys think?

I no longer use Hershey's Syrup, but it never glutened me.

How about the pop corn...was it labeled gluten free?

Some roasted peanuts do contain gluten, but I don't know which ones.

Planters is a Kraft brand. If there is gluten it will be clearly disclosed in the ingredient list.

Yeah, the more I think about it...I think it's the Hershey chocolate syrup. It may just be a trace amount, that has built up over the course of the week, and finally made us really sick today. Two days ago, I was getting heart palpitations, that is usually my first sign of a glutening, even before the stomach issues pop up.

My dd has been cranky and pale this week, but I just attributed it to school starting, until today. Darn, we were loving our chocolate almond milk in the morning. I bought the syrup for a special treat on the 1st day of school, and it's cheaper than buying the actual chocolate flavored almond milk. Oh well, that sure backfired on me!

I suspect it could be any or all of them! I have to be VERY careful with microwave popcorn. If the box says "manufactured in a facility that also processess......." then you have a cc problem. I wouldn't think it would be the syrup, but I can't do dairy anymore either, so it's been forever since having chocolate syrup.

We eat Hershey's chocolate syrup all the time and have never had a problem with it.

I vote for the syrup--I've reacted to it myself, and Hershey's is less than forthcoming on the source of their natural flavors. Sounds like it was a build-up of small amounts over the days.

I can relate to adding too many new things at once--that almost guarantees me a reaction.

Hope you both feel better soon :)

I doubt it is the pop weaver from Walmart. I wrote the company last month and this is the response:

We are very committed to bringing our customers the highest quality of popcorn at the most reasonable price and, we also want to produce products that meet the health concerns and needs of all of our customers. We continually search for ways to improve our products and always appreciate it when we hear from our customers! There is no wheat, barley, rye or oats gluten in any of our Pop Weaver Popcorn products or in the raw material ingredients. Thank you again for your inquiry and we hope you will continue to enjoy Pop Weaver Popcorn products. Have a good day! Shelli

Hope this helps!

ALL of these items are gluten-free. As for CC, always hard to say.

I have had Hershey twice this week with no problem at all, but everyone is different. I would think of the peanuts myself. I grabed a bag of sunflower seeds and it said right on it that they contained wheat. Go figure in sunflower seeds I never would of guessed.

      Chances of being coeliac

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Welcome @JoJo0611. That is a valid question.  Unfortunately the short answer is slim to none.  Be proactive, when the diagnosis process is completed, start GFD.  Remember also that the western diet is deficient in many nutrients that governments require fortification.  Read the side of a breakfast cereal box. Anti-tTG antibodies has superseded older serological tests It has a strong sensitivity (99%) and specificity (>90%) for identifying celiac disease. A list of symptoms linked to Celiac is below.  No one seems to be tracking it, but I suspect that those with elevated ttg, but not diagnosed with Celiac Disease, are diagnosed with celiac disease many years later or just die, misdiagnosed.  Wheat has a very significant role in our economy and society.  And it is addictive.  Anti-tTG antibodies can be elevated without gluten intake in cases of other autoimmune diseases, certain infections, and inflammatory conditions like inflammatory bowel disease. Transient increases have been observed during infections such as Epstein-Barr virus.Some autoimmune disorders including hepatitis and biliary cirrhosis, gall bladder disease. Then, at 65 they are told you have Ciliac Disease. Milk protein has been connected to elevated levels.   Except for Ireland and New Zealand where almost all dairy cows are grass fed, commercial diaries feed cows TMR Total Mixed Rations which include hay, silage, grains and concentrate, protein supplements, vitamins and minerals, byproducts and feed additives. Up to 80% of their diet is food that cannot be eaten by humans. Byproducts of cotton seeds, citrus pulp, brewer’s grains (wheat and barley, rye, malt, candy waste, bakery waste. The wheat, barley and rye become molecules in the milk protein and can trigger tTg Iga in persons suseptible to Celiac. I can drink Grass fed milk, it tastes better, like the milk the milkman delivered in the 50's.  If I drink commercial or Organic milk at bedtime I wake with indigestion.

      Dedicated gluten-free Restaurants in East Bay (near San Francisco):

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      I strongly recommend 2 dedicated gluten free (gluten-free) restaurants in my area (East Bay of San Francisco Bay Area) (2025) -- Life is Sweet Bakery and Café in Danville. I've been a few times with friends and tried multiple entrees and salads. All very good and worth having again. I've also tried a number of their bakery goods. All extremely good (not just "good for gluten-free"). https://lifeissweetbakeryandcafe.com/ -- Kitara Kitchen in Albany (they have additional locations). I've been once and had the "Buritto Bowl". Six individual items plus a sauce. Outstanding. Not just "for gluten-free", but outstanding in its own right. Vibrant flavors, great textures. I can't wait to go back. https://www.kitava.com/location/kitava-albany/

      I'm 67 and have been celiac for 17yrs. I had cataract surgery and they put a gluten lens in my eye. Through a lot of research, I found out about MMA acrylic...it contains gluten. It took 6 months for me to find a DR that would remove it and replace it with a gluten-free lens . I have lost some vision in that eye because of it . I also go to a prosthodontist instead of a regular dentist because they are specialized. He has made me a night guard and a few retainers with no issues... where my regular dentist didn't care. I have really bad reactions to gluten and I'm extremely sensitive, even to CC. I have done so much research on gluten-free issues because of these Drs that just don't care. Gluten is in almost everything shampoo, lotion, food, spices, acrylic, medication even communion wafers! All of my Drs know and believe me I remind them often.... welcome to my world!

      If this applies geographically, in the U.K., physicians will often declare a diagnosis of celiac disease based on the TTG-IGA antibody blood test alone if the score is 10x normal or greater, which your score is. There is very little chance the endoscopy/biopsy will contradict the antibody blood test.
