Is My Assumption Correct?

Hi there, I've been wondering about Slurpees (usually 7-11 or Mac's, I assume they are all the same...) and was thinking that if the flavour was gluten free, such as coke, does that mean that the slushie is for sure gluten-free?

This was on thread a few weeks ago. I wrote to 711 because on the web site some flavors said contain gluten or wheat. Some flavors had no nutritional info at all. The response was that 711 did not know what is in the Slurpees. I know that some of these iced drinks have a base and then the flavor of coke or cherry is added. I don't remember where but one place had barley malt sweetener in it. It was a small like icy drink cart not a store. We make our own at home with just the soda and one of those "ice cream makers" that you freeze and then stir what is in them. Could probably freeze soda and put in the blender with a little unfrozen soda.

Really? I never would have thought! It's been ages since having those things but was back in my hometown last summer and one of the Quick Trips had a RedHots flavor that was the bomb! I had NO problems and I am pretty sensitive....not Celiac, but intolerant. I have to consider possible dairy in things and I was more worried about that in slurpees that even considering wheat!

      @Aretaeus Cappadocia thank you for your reply and the link, that is very helpful to get a visual of just how small of an amount can cause a reaction. I know I am not consuming gluten or coming into contact with gluten from any other source. I will stop touching/tossing bread outside! My diet has not changed, and I do not have reactions to the things I am currently eating, which are few in number. My auto immune reaction just seems so severe. The abdominal pain is extreme. It takes a lot out of me. I guess I will be this way for the rest of my life if I ever happen to come into contact with gluten? I appreciate the help.

      Thankyou I did find out the Infectious disease is the route to go rather than dermatologist. I did reach out to two major hospitals and currently waiting on approval for one of them in Infectious Diseases to call me. I also did have implants ( I didn't know and sense not properly in my medical. Neither did surgeon)in 2006 and there was a leak 2023 during the same time I was dealing with covid, digestive issues, eyes and skin.Considering I " should  be fine" not consuming gluten/wheat, taking vitamins for sibo and STILL feeling terrible.It has to be parasites. I also take individual eye drops prescribed, could there be an issue there? Anyways my pcp thinks I need therapy because again they don't acknowledge my digestive issues because in my records it shows im fine, hintz the reason I had to go back to bay area hospital:(  I thought skin issues maybe sibo related but I feel and have seen and seriously trying not to think about it because it's disgusting.

      oops. I didn't see that before posting or I would have at least referenced it. The two recipes are pretty similar, but I think the newer one is a little simpler/faster. Next time though I will search more before posting.

      I love Middle Eastern food and eggplant, and here is another version we shared some time back:

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
