someone said they were eating them but I don't know if they are actually gluten-free

Go ahead and enjoy!!! Snickers was one of the items my GI doc told me I could have!!!!! However those snickers potables are not gluten-free.

Every size change in a snickers or any other food matters. Check the ingredients for minis, bite sized, regular, jumbo and popables. Each is different. Some contain gluten, some do not. This rule applies for all foods.

I think the smaller sizes, like the bite size snickers have gluten. So don't eat those.

I was told that all Snickers except the poppables are gluten free

Carriefaith Enthusiast

ok, I guess it was the popables I meant. I knew it was something different :)

The snickers cruncher and snickers marathons also have gluten in them.

the popables have wheat listed in the ingredients but I think the mini's are ok... no wheat listed on those.

Yes...all gluten-free except poppables...I had 2 bars today :)

I really thought the minis were gluten full....Must have been a mini milky way?

Regular Milky Ways contain wheat--so, as you suggested, of course, the minis also contain gluten (Milky Way Midnight is gluten-free). The Poppables are a dangerous area, so I just avoid them. You have to be...more careful with the minis. There was a major problem a few months ago with those variety packages of mini candies...malt was used in the glue for the wrappers and nobody knew they weren't gluten-free, because one would assume there was malt in some of the non-gluten-free candies, but that the others didn't contain malt. Big thing...so don't buy those variety packs. Stick with a bag of Snickers or a bag of Butterfingers, etc.

I have never seen any gluten-free popables. :(

What about 3-musketeers bar?

KaitiUSA Enthusiast

Yes, I don't think any are gluten-free--and if they are, I don't care enough to find out...I know which bars are gluten-free and those are the most accessible forms of candy, so that's all that matters to me :P

Yes.

      So I purchased the Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine along with the Thiamax. I will take along with my Super B Complexes. I stopped taking the multi vitamins. Should I take all 3 vitamins/supplements together with my morning oatmeal breakfast? Do you think I will experience any bad symptoms when taking them.

      Of all the countries I have visited in Europe, Asia, and the Americas, I have found eating out in Ireland to be the safest for celiacs. Most restaurants have all allergens (up to 14 different ones) identified on their menus, including wheat and gluten. I have found staff at restaurants to be very knowledgeable regarding gluten and cross-contamination compared to most other countries. Restaurant staff (including management) in Ireland even tried dissuading me from eating some items labeled 'gluten-free' on the menu, fearing that there could be risk of minuscule cross-contamination. Many of the hotels have fresh baked gluten-free breads, pastries, and cakes at their breakfast buffet, something unheard of in most U.S hotels. These are clearly labeled and well separated from gluten-containing items. There are also quite a few gluten-free desserts to satisfy one's sweet tooth.  With everything said and done, the meats and dairy products are simply delicious and worth trying. Overall, I would give dining out in Ireland five stars for celiac safety and quality.

      No, I meant two years ago when you had your most recent upper GI scope.
    • pilber309
      yes it was very notable during the pre diagnosis of coeliacs in fact it was all the time.

      And you were experiencing this burning sensation back then?
