Mary's Gone Crackers

Has anyone tried Mary's Gone Original Crackers? I had tried some before but I just bought a box last week and I got really sick. I thought perhaps it was the soup I ate - but I just tried them again and within minutes, I was ill. Anybody have the same experience? I have been contaminated so many times this week, I am such a bad mood!!!!

Hi, I eat Mary's Gone Crackers all the time without a problem. I think their factory is dedicated gluten-free. Could it be the fiber or an undiagnosed allergy to an ingredient? Frustrating situation, hope it improves:)

Yeah, Mary's Gone Crackers is a dedicated gluten free facility, so it's got to be something else about them that's bothering you. Could be the high fiber content.

Oh yeah, I love these - I get the original, too. They were recently on sale for $2.50 a box so I bought 6. I haven't had a problem with them. Maybe it's something else in them?

Sorry! That is not fun.

Could something else have made you sick other then the crackers? Or could your body not like something else that is in the crackers. As said before, they are made in a dedicated gluten free facility so they would not cause a gluten problem.

I eat them all the time. They are my favorites. Perhaps you're reacting to the flax seed or the soy or another ingredient in them. In any case, your body is telling you no, so you should listen and stop eating them. Try Edwards and Sons. They have a strict no gluten policy written on their website and their crackers are tested and retested. They have a flavor for everyone. Another good cracker is Asian Gourmet. They have several flavors and are produced in a gluten-free facility ( I called). The Casabe Rainforest Crackers made from the yucca root are also good and very low in calories. They are produced in a gluten free environment. www.fortitudebrands.com. Hope you feel better!

I ate some today actually, and no issues. I echo those hear--perhaps an issue with flax or sesame or the soup could definitely be a culprit too. Looks like you'll have to play detective :)

Food reactions are so frustrating to figure out. I can't eat Edwards and Sons. I wish I could because I think they taste great.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
