Summer Treats (Ice Cream, Etc)


SweetDsMom

I hadn't put any thought to this until my parents recently mentioned they had wanted to get my son an ice cream treat then realized they shouldn't.

Are there ice cream brands known for being gluten free, or at least "gluten friendly" where some flavors are fine? And what about things like snowballs, etc?

This is something that I know when we're out and about can make for fun treats, but - perhaps not so much.

My famiily has had no problems with going to DQ for ice cream. At least not so far.

We do DQ. Just be careful with the mix-in kinds. They might have made an oreo or cookie dough one right before yours and they don't clean between mixings. I think a lot of the prepackaged ice cream bars, fudgesicles, popsicle things are OK. Check the ingredients or website if there is a brand or kind you like. Also, Frosties at Wendy's are supposed to be gluten-free (once again, watch the mix-ins). My son got m&m but there was some oreo in his -not sure which place we were at. Doesn't matter to him.

The Vanilla and Chocolate soft serve at DQ and Dilly Bars and Starkisses are gluten free. Dairy Queen had a great list of gluten free items on their website which was recently updated. McDonald's ice cream and chocolate and vanilla milkshakes are also gluten free. Breyer's Natural Ice Creams (chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry) are gluten free.

Most of the fudgisicle ingredients which I've come across contain gluten (malt flavoring) and some popsicles also have gluten in them. All Dove chocolate ice cream products are gluten free. I hope this helps. I was recently diagnosed but have been researching this are because I love ice cream!

I eat Luigi's Italian Ices from the grocery store. They are gluten-free and have a variety pack of 3 flavors. Not bad at all. Add a little soda to the top and let them thaw a bit and the are a little fancier.

I eaten numerous snowballs and none have given me any trouble.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶
