Coffee? You're Freaking Kidding Me...

Am I to understand that coffee I buy myself (like Maxwell House or Folgers) for my coffee maker can be cross-contaminated? Really?

No. I don 't worry it. Slight possibility a flavored coffee might have barley but the few I have seen, don' t.

Coffee is not something I worry about either but I buy regular coffee (not flavored), which I brew myself.

I do not worry about coffee in the least.

I called a couple of coffee manufacturers after I first went gluten free...I was grinding my own beans at the time. They told me that they could not assure me that the beans were not cross-contaminated. They said that the beans might be hauled in the same trucks where other grains were hauled or stored. I asked if they rinse their beans at all...they said NO!!! I believe that company was Millstone, but others also are the same. Also, flavored coffees might contain gluten as additives. I went to Kcups, with the machine. I can't tolerate caffeine anyway, but the Newman's organic decaf seems to do relatively okay with me.

Sounds like a CYA statement. They don't test for gluten.

I worry about coffee because it sends me to the bathroom with gluten or without it :blink:

If someone old you that, then yes, they were kidding you. Coffee is not a concern. I might check flavored coffee for barley but those are few and far between. Regular coffee is safe.

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
