Thanks for letting us know. I switched to Swiss Miss a few years ago when Nestle changed their ingredients and started adding sucralose to their regular hot cocoa mix. Ick! If I wanted Splenda in there I'd buy the diet version, thank you!

I use 100% Nestles powdered cocoa and add plain sugar. Can be added to milk or water. Taste's great and no nasty chemicals. Only slightly more trouble than ripping open a mix bag as you have to dip the spoon into the cocoa and then a different spoon into the sugar. This is the way we used to make it in the girl scouts when I was a kid. I don't use vanilla but the recipes below do.

I have two containers of the 100% cocoa and neither says it is processed on equipment that also processes wheat and I've never had a reaction to my hot cocoa.

Here is a slightly more complicated recipe. Since your looking for a mix this may not be for you.

Here is Nestles own recipe that will give you the ratio of cocoa to sugar if you want to prepare your own mix.

1/2 cup granulated sugar

You can also add a splash of vanilla to a bunch of sugar, mix very well and then add the right amount of chocolate powder mix again and reseal in a bigger container. Also, consider adding your mini marshmallows and you are all set. Cheaper, safer, and yummier.

Abeulita, Mexican hot chocolate, imported by Nestle is gluten-free, and delicious!!!

**But only the disk format is, the powder form is NOT gluten-free.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
