Whole Foods gluten-free Morning Glory Muffins

I ate a Whole Foods Gluten free (I think!!) morning glory muffin this morning. I had thrown away the packaging to wrap them individually (stupid me). This is the only thing I ate today that was possibly not gluten free (the other new thing I ate today was the new Stoneyfield greek yogurt - perhaps a reaction/intolerance to that??) I started wondering if I accidentally got a regular package- it was SOOOOO YUMMMYYY (maybe too yummy to be gluten-free)???

About 5 hours after eating the muffin my stomach exploded (I'll spare the details).

Anyone else ever experience a bad reaction to these - or perhaps no one has ever tried them because they weren't gluten-free to begin with and I picked up a wrong package!!!????

Whole Foods goes to great lengths to ensure that their gluten free products are, in fact, gluten free. They have a dedicated facility that includes batch testing. I say all this to help eliminate the worry of CC. So, it could be that it was a regular one... they do make both versions of that particular muffin. I've only ever seen the gluten-free muffins in the freezer sections, though.

Or, it could be something else that you are reacting to. Do you have any additional intolerances?

I'm working on figuring out other intolerances but to have a reaction like I did was quite surprising. The muffin tasted so good and so normal....not gluten-free at all. I really wasn't worried about CC - I was worried that either I picked up a wrong package or they put them in a wrong package. I guess I'll have to heal from this and try them again

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

      Welcome to the forum. Is the nausea associated with eating certain foods, or anything else in particular?  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months.
