Let's Do Sprinklez - Barley Grass Ingredient

I bought a case of Let's Do Sprinklez from amazon because I couldn't find any sprinkles I was comfortable with. They just came and I noticed they have barley grass powder. I know barley grass is technically gluten-free because the protein is in the grain, but the risk of cross contamination seems really high. Does anyone use these??

I never heard of them before but would not feel comfortable using them.

I have *no idea* why they would want to or think to use barley grass powder. Weirdos.

I know! I'm so irritated - one with myself for not checking the label before shelling out $17 for stupid sprikles. It was a late night purchase. Kiddo's birthday is coming up and I'm making cake pops. I really wanted to decorate them with sprinkles. I kept looking locally for just one package. Then late one night I decided to just buy them. I figured they'd keep forever and I could actually use them for Christmas cookies, cupcakes, etc. GRRRR!!! What a stupid waste of money! WHY would you do that?? The stupid things are practically white anyway for any color they might have added why bother! Again, GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! :angry:

Is there any way you can return them? If not you could donate them to a food pantry and if you itemize your taxes you could deduct them.

OK, these sprinkles have become the joke of our house. I keep walking past them in the kitchen and huffing. I didn't realize I was doing it until my hubby said, "You should just move them somewhere else." I agreed, but didn't do anything about them. Now they've disappeared. I have no idea where they went and I'm not going to try to find them!

Ravenwoodglass - good suggestion! I also thought about giving them to a couple friends who are into organic food but don't need gluten-free.

Stupid, ugly, barley grass, sprinkles!

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      No, Life Extension contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride. Objective Nutrients Thiamax contains TTFD. I take both of these and a B Complex.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I take both Benfotiamine and TTFD. You might want to start with the Benfotiamine for a few days and then add in the TTFD. You can look for NeuroMag (Magnesium Threonate). A magnesium glycinate is fine, too. Doctor's Best is a good brand. Don't take more than 300mg total per day of magnesium or it may have a laxative effect. Be sure...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine has 100MG of Ben and 25 of Thia..... Do you think this is the one I should take or Objective Nutrients Thiamax (TTFD) which has 100MG Thiamine. How much magnesium should I look for? I take the womens 50+ multivitamin since consumerlabs stated and tested that it has the right amount of vitamins and not too much for...

How much magnesium should I look for? I take the womens 50+ multivitamin since consumerlabs stated and tested that it has the right amount of vitamins and not too much for men and doesn't have BHT which has shown to cause liver cancer in animals. I was never big with multivitamins as well as doctors I just read when I was first going gluten free to take a multi but I think I will stop them and work on trying the super B Thia and Ben, Mag.

      Hi all I’ve been celiac for 4 years now, I’ve done pretty well to avoid it thus far. Last night I took the wrong pizza out of the freezer and ate the whole lot!! The non gluten and gluten pizza boxes are both very similar.   2 hours later I was throwing up violently on my hands and knees over the loo.  .horrendous stomach pains,  My hair was wet from sweat every part of my body was wet. What an awful experience, just had a bad headache today  fortunately.    Is their any products/pills anyone takes if they have realised they have just been glutened to make the symptoms a little less worse.  thanks
