I tried their maple donuts today and was pleased. Are there any duds? They all look good.

I tried the vanilla (was a while ago so don't remember the real name. Much better than Glutino.

I absolutely love their cinnamon-sugar donuts! They taste just like the ones my mom used to make. I tried their maple ones and got a horrible migraine--I'm assuming that they must use grapefruit juice in their recipe for that one. I react with a migraine with even a touch of grapefruit present.

Chocolate covered for me! I didn't even bother to try the others. :lol:

Chocolate covered for sure. The maple ones were too sweet for me and I also got a headache (I figured it was the sugar rush). I have not seen vanilla and not tried the cinnamon.

Cinnamon sugar ones are my favorite. I tried the chocolate covered ones and wasn't impressed. The chocolate gave me indigestion.

None of them impress me even a little bit. But then I am used to homemade puffy, light yeast doughnuts rather than cake doughnuts which are unpopular here on the prairies. I yearn for one of those - they are impossible to make gluten-free. But for what the K doughnutsy are and intended to be (which is not puffy yeasty) they deliver. It is strictly a personal taste preference thing. :)

We live only 300 miles from the Kinnikinnick head office and plant and pick up a few things from there but not the bread, bagels, English muffins - that stuff is just plain gross! But it is so wonderful to see this company striving to do what it can in this market and they do have tons of products. Perhaps one day they will discover the secret to truly yummy puffy yeast doughnuts. :P Then I will return and stock up like crazy!

In their wee fresh bakery section they have some very good lemon meringue pie. Now THAT I love! :D

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
