Betty Crocker gluten-free Cookie Mix?

Does anyone have problems with Betty Crocker gluten-free Cookie Mix? I'm having problems with something and since my reactions are delayed by about three days, it's sometimes difficult to pinpoint what is the cause. Today I have diarrhea. On Tuesday I introduced the cookies and also leeks--ate them both on Tuesday and Wednesday. I guess I have to remember to try one thing at a time, but I didn't think either one would be a problem.

I've never had a problem with the cookie or cake mix, and I use it a lot. It's always possible though!

I've had the cookies a couple of times without problems, but I'm still trying to ascertain my level of sensitivity.

My youngest and I had a problem with the cookie mix, but I think that it was the soy in the chocolate that gave us problems.

I've been OK with the Betty Crocker mixes, but it seems more likely that than leeks, huh? :unsure:

I'd vote for the leeks. I mean, if I had to choose which to cut out I'd say keep cookies and get rid of something like a leek. ;)

ahem... sorry, I'm no help. But a cookie sounds yummy right about now. :)

I tried the cookie and brownie mix on two seperate occasions and had a reaction both times, so now I just stay away.

And I hope it's the cookies and not the leeks. The cookies are just OK and I'm not desperate yet. However, I really like the leeks added to my brown rice and celery pilaf--but afraid my pilaf seasoning may be a problem too. So many things to figure out and I'm a year into this already.

They contain no gluten ingredients and are made in a gluten-free processing facility, so I'd guess it's not a glutening problem. They are rich though, what with the butter, the eggs, all the gluten-free flours, chocolate chips, sugar, xanthan gum, etc. And when all that stuff is baked it's pretty greasy.

I do love them though. I like to add extra chips, and lots of pecans, and bake them a little longer so they're crispy.

best regards, lm

      She used to take supplements, but her abdominal pain is so debilitating that she hasn't been able to continue.  Her primary care team has been suggesting liquid supplements rather than pill form to help.  They just drew a lot of blood Friday and we are slowly getting all that work back.  I will definitely check into thiamine!  Thanks!

      They have not done that yet.   We are looking at some other treatments to help. And you are correct.  The tickborne illness has been a wild ride.  Our whole family has been battling different tickborne illnesses.  Its expensive and exhausting.

      I cannot tolerate it at all - triggers burning and nausea, ditto aspirin.  Here in the UK I take Paracetamol.

      For back pain, I take a combination of Cobalamine B12, Pyridoxine B 6, and Thiamine B 1 (in the form Benfotiamine), which have an analgesic effect.  These three B vitamins together work way better than those over the counter pain relievers.  Theses are water soluble B vitamins that are easily excreted via the kidneys if not needed.  Thiamine will also help the nausea.

      @stephaniekl, welcome to the forum, Is your daughter taking any nutritional supplements?   Weight loss and failure to thrive are two symptoms of thiamine insufficiency.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms are not recognized as such by doctors.   I experienced similar symptoms when I became malnourished.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can become worse quickly, and can affect one emotionally and mentally.  Although blood tests for thiamine aren't accurate, do have your daughter checked for nutritional deficiencies.  Thiamine B 1 works with the other B vitamins and magnesium.  Thiamine and Niacin B 3 help improve Gerd.  All the B vitamins are frequently low due to malabsorption.  Vitamin D will help calm the immune system.  Thiamine helps the immune system fight off viruses like those tick borne illnesses.   Thiamine Mononitrate, which is in many vitamin supplements, is not bioavailable.  I was taking a multivitamin containing thiamine mononitrate and still became deficient in thiamine. Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.  A form called TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) is also excellent for correcting thiamine deficiency.  A combination of Thiamine, Cobalamine B12, and Pyridoxine B 6 has analgesic properties.  I take it for back pain.   Keep us posted on your progress!
