Not really a chocolate fan but I love hazelnuts! Many people adore it. It's all over the place in Italy from gelato to crepes. It would be lovely melted and drizzled over vanilla bean ice cream or even desserts, cakes or cookies (if you like chocolate and hazelnuts, that is!). :)

I'd just like to say that learning this has officially made my day. I just tried my first slice of gluten-free bread, and it almost made me cry, so the fact that I can still have nutella came as a very pleasant surprise.

I love Nutella!

When I discovered it was gluten free, I knew I could survive.

Toasted Udi's bread with Nutella and a cup of coffee is heaven. :rolleyes:

Reminds me of my old chocolate croissants.

Which gluten free bread did you try? What brand? Let me know so I consider avoiding it. I hear Udi's is really good, the best in the USA. You'll get more used to it :)

I never miss *regular* shelf bread. I think it's DISGUSTING! I'd make bread at home if I could eat gluten again. The stuff they add to wheaten shelf bread is disgusting: soy flour, corn syrup, etc. Yuck. Normal breads on the shelf look terrible too.

I find this diet to be really healthy. Nutella is good. Over here in Australia I get Nutino spread. I find it several times better than nutella :D

All the best!

There is a great recipe for stuffed french toast using UDI's cinnamon raisin bread, nutella etc. It is very good and I never thought I would enjoy the whole chocolate on bread thing.

Will post later.

No, because it has milk in it. However, Jason's Chocolate Hazelnut Butter is very very good

I felt the same way about bread until I tasted "Canyon Bakehouse" gluten-free bread. I can eat it plain. Has the same texture as the bread I ate prior to going gluten-free & a great flavor. I haven't tried Nutella, I'll have to do that soon!

It's really nice. And (unlike all the other chocolate spreads I've ever seen) it uses sunflower lecithin instead of *the usual* soy lecithin we tend to find in *everything*!!! B)

Great! I'd be interested in hearing your opinion. I never purchase ready-made stuff (except Worcestershire and soy sauce and the occasional bread/bun). If I see something I want I find a way to make it. So, I'm curious! :)

Nutella is a staple when I'm travelling. It doesn't require refrigeration and it's yummy, so you don't feel deprived. Plus after a few days of living on a diet of chex cereal and nutella sandwiches I'm so sugared up that I'm thrilled to eat vegetables again.

Yum. This is one of my favorite breakfasts. In fact, I just bought some Udi's yesterday. Guess what I'm having for breakfast? lol.

When I feel like a treat, I sometimes add a spoonful to a bowl of yogurt - easy, delicious & still somewhat healthy.

I miss Nutella dearly.

Can't do dairy, and hazelnut was one of the only things that came up positive with allergy skin tests (even though I never noticed a problem with it - go figure).

One the plus side, I don't miss the calories! laugh.gif

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results. Thank you

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
