Only the Crispy M+M's are not gluten-free. The rest are fine!

Absolutely...all M&Ms are gluten-free except for the Crispy ones in the blue package. That includes plain, peanuts, etc. I just finally managed to get to this webpage... but Kristina and I were IMing and she asked in the IM and I said yeah, and I told her to say we convened and came to that conclusion, but she said no, it would make us seem like dorks, so now that I'm here I can say it.

melhopkins02,

I have celiac disease and am not lactose intolerant either, but I found that I don't react well to eating M&M's either (plain that is....I am just fine with the peanut ones)! I know they are gluten free, so I'm not sure what the problem is!! Its not nearly as bad as getting glutened, but there is something about M&M's that don't like me, and I never noticed it til celiac disease. Who knows! I try to avoid them in large amounts. Luckily there are plenty of gluten free chocolates out there that are fine :P

Well, its good to know that they are gluten-free!! I wonder what it is about them that does bother me but I can eat them to a small extent. Thanks for the replies...I don't know what I would do without this message board!!! Its made this so much easier to deal with!!

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly...

      No I haven't had one since 2021. I rarely have more than 1 per week.

      Sorry, I see that now as I reread your original post. You say you have hemorrhoids "only once a week" now. When I develop hemorrhoids, which is once every few years now, it generally takes 3-4 days for healing to take place. So, it doesn't seem like you could have much relief time between episodes if you have them weekly. Have you had a lower GI scoping done...

      Everyday I eat a medium to large apple in the morning and a large banana at night. I eat a cup of oatmeal in the evening. The ezekiel wheat bread I eat has a good amount of fiber. I haven't dealt with constipation for at least a year. Most of the time my feces are soft.
