Does anyone else have a reaction to the Endangered Species chocolate bars?

I ordered the Dark chocolate with almond and cranberry in bulk, and they seem to consistently make me ill. As far as I know I don't have any other food sensitivities.

Yes, I got sick the last time I tried Endangered Species Chocolate about a month ago but assumed I had been cross contaminated by something else.... As the label clearly says certified gluten free. However, I tried it again last night. I haven't felt this bad in a long time...

Mainly SEVERE irritability. I'll never try this product again.

I also had problems with them. You might want to try Enjoy Life. They are also certified gluten free, made in a dedicated facility, and free of all 8 major allergens. I did better with them.

We eat these all the time and I haven't seen any problems. I buy them in bulk for my kids lunches, etc. Are you worried that the gluten certification isn't accurate? Would the certification rule out chances of cc or would the possibility of cc still be there?

I also eat them all the time without issues.

They are all gluten free to my knowledge. Chocolate of any sort, gives me terrible reflux.

Just one of those things..... B)

The GFCO certification rules out chances of cc over 10 ppm gluten which is the sensitivity of the test used. Zero chances of cc cannot be obtained because there is not test which has that sensitivity. The most sensitive test that I am aware of has a sensitivity of 3 ppm gluten. I don't know if there are any facilities which use it.

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      What is the best gluten free scanner app? I have the "gluten-free Scanner" app. I scanned an almond joy and it says it contains gluten when the package is labeled gluten free

      Certainly, it would b wise to have a gene test done if your physician is open to it as it would provide some more data to understand what's going on. But keep in mind that the genetic test for celiac disease cannot be used as to diagnose celiac disease, only to establish the potential to develop active celiac disease. About 40% of the general population possess one or both of the primary genes known to be associated with the development of active celiac disease but only about 1% of the population actually develop active celiac disease. So, the gene test is an effective "rule out" tool but not an effective diagnostic tool.

      Had Quaker gluten-free oatmeal last night and my stomach is a mess today. NO flu but def stomach stuff. Anyone else?
    • Roses8721
      So you would be good with the diagnosis and not worry to check genetics etc etc? Appreciate your words!
