I am SO frustrated. I can't find anything out on their website, it's Sunday and I'm dying for a TCBY. I KNOW we discussed this on this board but I have searched every topic and I can't find it.

Please help-what can I have at TCBY and are there any cross cont. issues I should be concerned with?

Thanks, Jenn

Thanks, celiac3270! I don't know how you found that so fast-I didn't realize it was under the Coldstone Creamery topic!

In any case I had the TCBY and so far so good but i didn't know to ask them to clean off the machine..hopefully this will be fine. Do we ask b/c the cones can touch them?

I can't help you on that one, I've never been to TCBY...I just searched for it and regurgitated the information :lol:

Alot of their ice cream and frozen yogurt is gluten free. I have an email of flavors we can have that they sent me..if you want just email me and I will send it to you. We love to go to TCBY about 1 time a week :D

Well, I ate there and loved it! Did not get sick.

But I still would like to know why to ask them to clean the machine..hopefully whoever posted that will read this and answer!

I clearly must not be lactose intolerant b/c I felt fine after eating it and still do.

Can dairy bother you sometimes and not others?

I assume that they ask them to clean the shiver machine because it can be used to mix the yogurt with all of the other toppings that we cannot have. So, everytime I go, I ask them to get the toppings from the original container in the back and to clean the mixer so that there is no trace of the cookie dough, oreos, etc. on there.

I'm not sure what the shiver machine is. I don't get toppings, just yogurt out of the machine.

But, if you think about it, those machines might touch a cone from time to time.

I used to work at TCBY...and yes the shiver machine should be cleaned because they just swirl it in water after they make the shivers.The shiver machine just mixes the toppings into the yogurt. The shivers can contain gluten because of toppings such as oreos. If you get regular yogurt from the yogurt machine then you are fine.

Okay, cool. All I get is the regular yogurt. Should I be concerned, though, about it touching a cone?

The cone does not touch it...at least I never saw it while I worked there. It gets close but not to the point of touching. I wouldn't be concerned about that.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      "My GI doctor ruled out gluten celiac entirely because I didn't have skin rash." Are you serious? The overwhelming majority of people with confirmed celiac disease do not have the rash. It's called dermatitis herpetiformis. It is found in only about 10-15% of those with celiac disease: https://www.celiac.ca/gluten-related-disorders/dermatitis-herpetiformis/ If your GI doc is operating on that piece of misinformation, I would start looking for a new GI doc because I wouldn't trust him/her in general.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      Thank you so much for your informative reply. My GI doctor ruled out gluten celiac entirely because I didn't have skin rash. I had a histamine response to wheat and milk by scratch test by an allergist. I'm not always symptomatic but the older I get the worse it gets. I've found through trial and error that I can react to all grains. Buckwheat and corn included. I tolerate some rice but I wouldn't want to eat it every day. Potato is pretty good for me but I can't eat it every day either. I compromise with squash. I tolerate it well. The Best I feel is while fasting. When I'm in pain and discomfort it's easy to fast even long term, it helps. The problem I'm having is I'm great with my diet for 3-6 months then I start to cheat again. When I don't get immediate symptoms I get this foolish false security. I react then go back to my diet. Rinse and repeat. I suppose discipline is my real issue. I'm very tired of perusing a diagnosis. The constant gaslighting and dismissal is exhausting. Thanks for your suggestion of the autoimmune protocol. I will give it a try. Perhaps the guidelines will help me to navigate better.   Thanks again.

      This isn't the first potential celiac disease treatment in the pipeline that failed. There have been others...

      First of all, being able to return to foods that you have developed a sensitivity to in connection with celiac disease is not a given. You may or may not be able to do this with time. But the ability to do so seems to be connected with the healing of the villous lining of the small bowel which often takes 2-3 years in adults after attaining to consistently truly gluten free diet. But you will just have to test the waters. Experimentation with those foods is the only way. Realize also there are thresholds of tolerance. You may be able to consume those foods without issue but not as often and in lesser amounts than in your pre celiac days. So, start small and go slow.
