Bloated, stomach hurts...so clearly they are contaminated! ;)

Its not my fault they made them so delicious- and way too small. They are like...baby donuts. Really. Chocolate covered infant chew toys.

Sitting like rocks in my stomach.

Ugh.

Hope everyone sees your "wink, wink" there. I can picture everyone suddenly spitting out their little baby donuts as we speak. :lol: Your thread title is a bit misleading.

Poor babe. Try some club soda with bitters in it. Loosen your pants. No wait, just take them off!!!

Yup, I did that ONCE with too many King Arthur blueberry pancakes.

Oh man, they tasted like heaven in my mouth.

But, holy crappers, girl, we need to show some restraint. :D

As tasty as they may be, they are full of carbs and sugar and your tummy is letting you know it ain't happy.

Hope you feel better soon.

A good reminder that there are reasons besides cc of gluten that can make us feel bad -

Food poisionimg, stomach bug, pregnancy, any food made by a MIL, and gluttony! :(

Enough of that... On to the important facts!

Are they frozen? Do you microwave or sit them out to defrost? Coffee or milk to accompany? Pepto or Tums?

I did that to myself with Kinnikinnick donuts too. :lol: They're dangerously good, aren't they?

They come from a dedicated plant so I doubt they were contaminated. I think you may have just eaten too many or there is something other than gluten that you may be intolerant to.

I used to think a lot of stuff was CC'd even from dedicated plants until I realized I can't tolerate soy or bean flours.

Pssssst... It's a joke! She ate the WHOLE BOX!

I've never seen them, but since I have already put back over 30 lbs. since DX, (only 15 of which was a good idea) maybe I had better NOT find them?? :lol:

I've never seen them either and if they are that good, I don't think I need them. That's also the very reason I don't buy Glutino Sesame Pretzel Rings very often.

Adalaide Mentor

I feel bad for you but I can't help but laugh too. This sounds exactly like the sort of thing I would do. We have them here and I keep almost buying them but they're SO EXPENSIVE. At least you know now your next box will last longer. :lol:

Pssssst... It's a joke! She ate the WHOLE BOX!

Never could tell when someone was joking. :o

MitziG Enthusiast

Yes, it was a joke! I thought the little winking guy would clue everyone in, sorry! But yeah, I just was chuckling cuz sometimes it seems we blame everything on gluten... but yup, gluttony, not gluten, was the culprit this time.

And in answer to another posters question, I ate them frozen! I picked some up on my way to work cuz I was dying for a donut and our grocery store JUST started carrying these. And it was a stressful morning at work...so...munch munch munch! I felt like such a bloated toad! All that sugar and carbs..blech. but they sure did taste good! :)

Yes, these donuts are the BEST! I especially like the cinnamon-sugar ones--they have the same consistency and taste as my mom's homemade donuts. She used to make them about twice a year, and they were soooo tasty. I also like the caramel-frosted ones, but I think they must use grapefruit or something in them, because they give me the same migraine that grapefruit does....so now I avoid that variety. As to why you feel ill, it may be that so many donuts at one time overloaded you with guar gum or xanthan gum. If I eat too many gluten-free baked goods at one sitting, I'm always sorry afterwards--lots of bloating and running to the bathroom.

So glad you enjoyed the donuts--they really ARE special!

Oh my gosh. :o

I'm really glad, I guess, that I can't find them where I live. Because if I knew they were available, your post would have had me jumping up from my computer to go get some!!! :lol:

More seriously, it is so great that there are products available that are truly good and make us WANT to eat them, rather than being substitutes that we tolerate but don't LOVE!

So you don't recommend defrosting? :D

This has been a fun read. Half of one of these babies is sufficient for me as I would rather spend my calories on something I love but what I do relate to is not stopping at just one thing. If I know it's there it drives me crazy. It's as though that snack is sitting there, sticking out its tongue and taunting me. :P BTW, the Kinnikinnick plant is only three hours' drive from my house but I don't go there for the doughnuts. :) Let me know and I can ship gigantic boxes to you and only charge a nominal fee. ;)

MitziG Enthusiast

HALF of a baby donut?!! That is just enough to drive me insane! But seriously, I know sugar and carbs trigger these ridiculous sugar binges in me, so generally, I avoid it altogether. Been trying to do primal/paleo...but I'm not very good at it obviously! But, moment of weakness is over with...so no need for your gigantic donut shipment, but thank you! ;)

Believe me, it's not willpower - I just don't really like the doughnuts that much and I've tried to. They are cake doughnuts and those I am familiar with and love are the big puffy light yeast doughnuts. I have moments of weakness daily at least! My cravings tend to be salty savoury as opposed to sweet. :P

I do the same thing with Kettle Chips. I have to quit buying them. I'll eat a whole bag at one sitting and then my tummy is none too pleased with my silly decision. I keep saying to myself, this is the last chip, put the bag away. But that never works... ;)

I will steer clear of these donuts, I've always been a donut junky, so I can see myself doing the same thing with them.

Indigowolf Newbie

LOL. I did the same thing. At first I just ate one and didn't have any problems. Then a few days later I ate the rest of the box and got sick. :rolleyes: When it comes to sweets and heavy deserts like flour-less cake and those donuts, I highly recommend not eating a lot at once.

      so do you have celiac or not? 🤔 why are your vision issues undiagnosed? 😢 what does your ophthalmologist say?  do you have a serious vit A deficiency? what do you take for it? how long have you had celiac disease and how long did  it take to get a diagnosis?   if you are legally blind there are adaptive devices that will help you. I have vision difficulties as well but did not qualify (at least not yet)   do you have a vit A deficiency? why are you undiagnosed? what does your ophthalmologist say? I have a retinal specialist and he tells me my eye condition can not be fixed- until/unless it gets to the point of where surgery is safer since the surgery can leave me actually blind... so you want to wait til it gets really bad 🤪     I hope you find what works for you.    PS   the medication I started at the same time as the gluten challenge is obvious from the condition it's trying to treat. you can google it 😉 it is not an for any auto immune condition.

      @catnapt,  I apologize.  Obviously I've confused you with someone else.  I have vision problems due to undiagnosed Celiac complications.  Being legally blind, y'all look the same from here.   You still have not said which new medication you started taking.  Parathyroid disorders can affect antibody production.  Bone Loss Correlated with Parathyroid Hormone Levels in Adult Celiac Patients https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36619734/ Effect of vitamin B1 supplementation on bone turnover markers in adults: an exploratory single-arm pilot study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12075007/

      during the gluten challenge I did not consume any wheat germ   the wheat germ is TOASTED - it's the only way it is sold now afiak doesn't matter I consume vast amounts of lectin containing foods PROPERLY prepared and have for well over a decade. They do not bother me in the least.    no anemia however the endo who ordered the celiac panel is the one who suggested the 2 week gluten challenge of eating at least 2 slices of bread per day or a serving of pasta- ALSO put me on a new drug at the same time (not a good idea)  I ate 4 slices because they were thin, or 2 English muffins, and just once some lasagna that someone else made since I stopped eating wheat pasta years ago. The English muffins caused some of the worst symptoms but that pc of lasagna almost killed me ( not literally but the pain was extreme) during those 12 days there were at least 3 times I considered going to Urgent Care.   This entire process was a waste of time TBH due to being on that new drug at the exact same time. it is impossible to tell if the drug I am taking for the possible renal calcium leak is working or not- given the dramatic response to the gluten challenge and resulting nausea (no vomiting) and eventually a loss of appetite and lower intake of foods so now I have a dangerously low potassium level   I don't have a simple case of celiac or no- I have an extremely complicated case with multiple variables I am seeing an endocrinologist for a problem with the calcium sensing glands - that system is very complicated and she has been unable to give me a firm diagnosis after many tests with confusing and often alarming results. She also appears to be inexperienced and unsure of herself. but I don't have the luxury of finding a new endo due to multiple issues of insurance, lack of drs in my area, money and transportation. so I'm stuck with her At least she hasn't given up    in any case I can assure you that lectins are not and never were the problem. I know they are a favorite villain in some circles to point to, but I have ZERO symptoms from my NORMAL diet which DOES NOT contain gluten. The longer I went without bread or foods with wheat like raisin bran cereal, the better I have felt. my body had been telling me for several years that wheat was the problem- or maybe specifically gluten, that remains to be seen- and stopping eating it was the best thing I could have done   I almost had unnecessary MAJOR SURGERY due to joint pain that I ONLY have if I am eating bread or related products I assumed it was the refined grains - never really suspected gluten but it does not matter I won't put that poison in my body ever again not that it is literally poison but it is def toxic to me

      @catnapt,  I'm sorry you're having such a rough time.   How much wheat germ and how much gluten were you eating? Lectins in beans can be broken down by pressure cooking them.  Do you pressure cook your beans?  Were you pressure cooking your wheat germ? What drugs are you taking?  Some immunosuppressive drugs affect IgA production.  Do you have anemia?

      oops my gluten challenge was only 12 days It started Jan 21s and ended Feb 1st   worst 12 days of my life   Does not help that I also started on a thiazide-like drug for rule in/out renal calcium leak at the exact same time No clue if that could have been symptoms worse 🤔
