Just be aware, Reese's has a new candy bar and it is not gluten free. It is packaged much the same as the Reese's peanut butter cups, same color and packaging but it has a different shape. I love the fact that Reese's regular cups are gluten free but this new one is not.

I didn't buy them after I read that they had wheat in them but when I get back to that store I will let you know the name.

The candy bar is called Milk Chocolate (in small letters) Reese's ( in big letters) and filled with Reese's Peanut Butter (in small letters.) It has the exact same packaging as Reece's peanut butter cups.

The ones called Sticks are obvious cookie in them. These are sneaky. Good eye!

It isn't the one called sticks. It is milk chocolate and peanut butter like the cups but in a different shape.

That's what I was trying to say. These are a sneaky gluten. The other you can tell by looking.

Looks like 2 dogs ( avatars) talking about candy. :)

Life without chocolate is not a life at all. :)

I think these candy bars may be on a trial basis because I can only find them at Kroger so far.

This has come up before.

Some of the Reese Peanut Butter cups that are made for holidays have wheat in them. They are usually different shapes like Christmas Trees for Christmas etc.

We assume they need to add this to get the special shapes.

Just make sure you read the packaging.

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
