I'd really like to start making my own almond milk and cashew milk. Pretty much all the nuts I can find are "packaged in a facility with wheat" yada, yada, yada. So I'm just curiuos if anyone else makes their own alternative milks, and if so, where do you buy your nuts from? Ha, hubby read this and laughed. I guess the word "nuts" is still funny no matter what age you are, lol. Anyway, thanks!

Nuts....Hee!! :D

Anywoo, I buy my nuts at Kroger in the produce section. I eat walnuts and almonds, and they carry one pound bags of each of those from Poindexter Nut Company. The bags actually say--"processed and packaged in a gluten and peanut free facility". (love that!)

Costco is the place to go, their cashews are so good! Planters sucks compared to Costco cashews and you can get a big bag of raw almonds or salted and roasted for a good price.

We buy a huge container of Sunkist Almonds at Sams and they are delicious! We buy our sunflower seeds, not nuts I know, but...at Whole Foods, their 365 brand. I may try their other nuts sometimes. We also have a hard time with nuts because you are right, most are processed on same lines as wheat. No thanks!

Oh, also the almonds we buy have no MSG!

I buy mine at Trader Joes. Nuts are listed on their gluten free list to I'm assuming. Prices seem good too I think

Just wondering, are the cashews sold at your Costco labeled with a, "Packed on" warning??? I stopped buying them, because I continued to experience set-back issues with my diet. I would be happy to find out that they are safe to eat...

I looked at the back of my almonds and cashews and yes there was a warning, but not on my walnuts which I dont understand. lol I stopped buying cashews because my dh and I can never put the dang jar down.

I am not sure if they are 100% safe, I should call Kirkland

      ttg iga high (646 mg/dl) other results are normal

      I think you may be correct. The way the results are printed makes it appear as though it’s the ttg iga but I think you’re right—the 646 is total iga. So this would be indicative of another issue (another autoimmune condition, infection, cancer, etc.) and my doctor would need to do further testing. Thank you for saying this!

      Are you sure that is the TTG IgA? Based on the units (mg/dL) and having an upper limit to the normal range, it looks like a total IgA result.

      Vegetarians and vegans with celiac disease

      I am wondering if there are any vegetarians or vegans on this forum. I’ve been vegan for 15+ years and am just finding out I likely have celiac disease (blood panel done, need biopsy). My favorite foods—outside of vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds—I will likely have to give up. Anyone else?

      Fiber Supplement

      Welcome to the forum, @Trish G! "Gluten free" does not necessarily equate to "no gluten". According to FDA standards it actually means that a food product contains no more than 20ppm of gluten. This is safe for most celiacs but would not be for those who are on the more sensitive end of the spectrum. So, it would depend on the individual celiac and their...

      Welcome to the forum, @Trish G! "Gluten free" does not necessarily equate to "no gluten". According to FDA standards it actually means that a food product contains no more than 20ppm of gluten. This is safe for most celiacs but would not be for those who are on the more sensitive end of the spectrum. So, it would depend on the individual celiac and their level of sensitivity to minor amounts of gluten. That's the long and nuanced answer. The short answer is that it is a product derived from wheat and so you can be certain it will contain some residual amounts of gluten. No gluten removal process is 100% effective. So, to be absolutely certain, stay away from it. Have you tried chia seeds? Very high in fiber and quickly turns into a gel when added to water. Make sure you get seeds that are gluten free if you decide to try it.
