Does anyone know if the syrups used in Starbucks are gluten free? Something 'got' me the other day & I'm trying to work out what it was.

Yes & no. Helpful, ain't I?

Go to the restaurant topic and you will see 2 recent ( a few days ago) Starbucks discussions. You should read them and decide how you feel about Starbucks.

I know that the Classic Syrup is gluten-free. Your best bet with Starbucks is to call them and ask about the items you are wondering about.

I called Starbucks a while back because I had heard something about gluten in one of their drinks. They said the base for (macchiatto?), may or may not be safe, they cannot exactly source every ingredient to make sure it is not cross contaminated. They said it should be the customer's decision whether or not to have any blended drink if they are concerned about food allergies/intolerances. Personally, I drink their hot and iced coffee and stay away from blended drinks, since even if they clean the blenders, there is still a risk that something is left on it. And honestly, their blended drinks have hundreds to thousands of calories and ridiculous amounts of sugar depending on size, so best to stay away from them anyway. A bunch of Starbucks in the Boston area have started carrying packages of gluten-free cookies and such, which is nice of them.

As far as the blenders, I stay away just like I would not drink anything made in a smoothie shop because you just never know...

oh, oops, I should have said this at the beginning, I'm pretty sure the syrup is gluten-free, but don't use them or any other sugar in my coffee. If not sure, I would ask them to look at the ingredients on the bottle. They're usually pretty good about that.

      Trying to read my lab results

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep...

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      Why?

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific?

      Why?

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
