Thanks for the heads up. If I open a container of Double Chocolate and instead find Cookies & Cream, I'll know what happened. :o

best regards, lm

Mine comes every day or two and includes all sorts of recall info. Many times the recall is undeclared allergens so it is well worth everyone's time. Thanks.

Can someone help me out with Breyer's ice cream. Sorry if this has already been addressed somewhere.

For the most part is Breyer's ice cream gluten free? Like the basic flavors at least (vanilla, chocolate). I've seen that "Breyer's All Natural Ice Cream" is gluten free. Is this the same thing as just their standard ice cream? Or is this a separate 'line' of theirs? (For example, a low-fat breyers line or something). I assumed that the All Natural was something special, but after trying to figure it out online again, I'm beginning to think that all their ice cream is branded as "all natural". That's just part of their brand/title, not a separate series of flavors or something. I'm asking because where I work, the standard ice cream they use for shindigs is Breyer's, and I always avoid it thinking I can't have it, but now I'm wondering if I can.

Thanks. And this doesn't have to do with the recall for the mint/cookie dough thing, I just tried to find a recent thread about Breyer's.

Anyone? Can please help me out with what I asked above? ^

I'm familiar with Bryer's vanilla, strawberry, and peach. I believe those are safe, and I haven't experienced any symptoms from having them. I think chocolate is gluten-free too. Since celiac diagnosis, I haven't tried other flavors of Bryer's. Read the ingredient list to be sure.

Aside from the specific recall flavor, Breyer's Ice Cream is owned by Unilever. Their policy is to disclose all forms of gluten on their label. All you have to do is read the ingredient listing. If you don't see wheat, barley, malt or rye it's not in there.

Thanks you two. I did read the label last time and there was no wheat, barely, malt or rye. But again, I had it in my head that it wasn't safe for some reason (that only a special type of breyer' was safe), so I figured there was some gluten hidden in the 'natural flavors' or something along those lines. The only flavors they usually have at work are vanilla, chocolate or strawberry. So yay, maybe next time I can actually participate in the little shindig and eat some ice cream instead of just standing around like a doofus.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      Anyone experimented with Taurine supplementation either via electrolyte powders or otherwise? Thanks
