As of tomorrow, participating Starbucks in the U.S. and Canada will be adding new "healthy" gluten free snacks. These include granola from Two Moms in the Raw and several cookie varieties from Lucy's.

my store put their display out early, i guess, because I snagged some Lucy cookies this afternoon. You get four small/medium-sized cookies for $1.50, and they packed into their own sealed pouch so CC is not a problem. I had never had Lucy's before, but the Sugar Cookies I tried were excellent.

where did you find this info? i can't find anything about gluten free on the website. i am very curious to see if they will keep these products

We tried the sugar cookie today. Beware, it contains gluten-free oats. It's four 2" cookies, but the serving size is three cookies. :rolleyes: They are crispy cookies with a buttery taste despite having no butter in them. It works out to .37 for a 43 calorie cookie.

Meh. I'm not impressed. The orange cake was delicious even if it wasn't "healthy." These cookies aren't worth the cash, calories or 27(!) ingredients in them to me.

The newspaper article that I read this morning said that they are free of most allergens. Some do contain soy. Dr. Lucky cookies of Virginia Beach:

Why did they have to pick something that has oats in it? I'm too afraid to try them. It can't be that hard to find something delicious that's gluten free that doesn't have oats in it.

Who was their research person? Need to fire them since they have gluten free items with oats. Too many people react to the gluten free oats to make it worth their trouble.

Who was their research person?

She is a mom just like us, who struggled to find everyday products for her son, who has multiple food intolerance.

Every time I see a new product, I am thankful for the great advances in research, awareness and product availability. Five years ago, there was nothing!

...and anxiously waiting to find Pamela's new product, Ready to Eat Cakes and Cheesecakes (in the frozen sections)!!! Yum!

Isn't that cool. Still think it should not have had oats in it.

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?

      There are eight essential B vitamins.  They are all water soluble.  Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys.   Thiamine is Vitamin B 1.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily.   The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is Thiamine Mononitrate, a form that the body does not absorb well and does not utilize well.  Only about thirty percent of the amount on the label is actually absorbed in the small intestine.  Less than that can actually be used by the body.  Manufacturers add thiamine mononitrate to their products because it's cheap and shelf-stable.  Thiamine and other B vitamins break down when exposed to light and heat and over time.  Thiamine Mononitrate is a form that does not break down over time sitting on a shelf waiting for someone to buy them.  What makes Thiamine Mononitrate shelf stable makes it difficult for the body to turn into a useable form.  In fact, it takes more thiamine to turn it into a useable form.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a localized shortage of Thiamine in the gastrointestinal tract.  High carbohydrate meals can result in gastrointestinal symptoms of Gastric Beriberi.  Fiber is a type of carbohydrate.  So, high fiber/carbohydrate snacks could trigger Gastric Beriberi.   Since blood tests for Thiamine and other B vitamins are so inaccurate, the World Health Organization recommends trying Thiamine and looking for health improvement because it's safe and nontoxic.

      Thanks very interesting I have to see if I should take these 2 vitamins along with my multi and super Vit B complex or if its too much or would hurt me. I don't have any other health issues but would love to see if this improves anything especially to feel stronger build muscle.
