  1. I guess my biggest thing is how are they ALLOWED to label it gluten free if even their website states "Greens First does contain a small amount of gluten so we suggest you try a small amount first and work up towards larger amounts." That doesn't make any sense and couldcause serious problems for some people
  2. Thanks. I've been gluten free for ten years, what a dumb mistake to make lol. How are they allowed to label it gluten free when it clearly is not?
  3. So two days into drinking a product called "Greens First" I wake up feeling like a I've been run over by a truck. Despite the "GLUTEN FREE" label on the front that is as large as the product name, the ingredients reflect barely and sprouted barely. A trip to the website states "Greens first does contain a small amount of gluten and is not suitable for people...
  4. Not only do they taste amazing, but they are cheap! About $2.50 for bag!! I got mine at walmart they were next to the regular Snyder's pretzles. If your walmart doesn't carry them yet, make sure you request the manager order some! Now that some of the mainstream brands are coming out with gluten free products, the only gluten free companies will eventually...
  5. Thats really interesting about the barley, thanks for the info!! This says 2500mg of barley grass juice powder. Its listed under "products" then "greens first" (not greens first berry or greens first boost)then click "information" and scroll down to the picture of the nutrition label where everything is listed out.
  6. Yeah Im definitely thinking the product is a no-go, but I'm still so confused. The woman who answered the phone said they undergo very strict testing and the product is definitley gluten free. How can that be??? They are certified gluten free from some company called "Eurofins" and have a letter from the lab posted on the website under "gluten free certification...
  7. I go there a lot. Like a lot a lot Im totally addicted. Anyways, they told me that you need to make sure they clean the stiring stick in the machine, AND the metal ring that they put in the blizzard cup while they stir bc it is usually rinsed in a large bucket and could have been rinsed with a gluten containing one before that. Also make sure the candy is...
  8. Hi there! Im super confused. I was looking into the product "greens first" which I had heard wonderful things about. Its like 27 vegetables in a drink that supposedly tastes really good. Since I survive almost entirely on junk food, I was excited lol. Anyways, the product says "certified gluten free" on it, but barley is one of the veggies in it. I called...
  9. Not sure if anyone is reading this thread or not, but I did hear back from on the border. It was rather a nasty email. Well not nasty, but had sort of a rude undertone. The woman said "Well the queso contains modified food starch which is why it has NEVER been on our gluten free menu" Um, I have a printed copy of the menu not only from the website, but...
  10. On the border has revised their gluten free menu, and the con queso appetizer is not on there anymore! So bummed. I used to just bring my own chips and eat it. Bummed bummed bummed. I emailed them. Wonder what they will say.
  11. Yes, you definitly CANNOT have the chips and salsa. They are fried in the same fryers as all the breaded items, and they ARE NOT listed on the gluten free menu. The waitors get confused because the chips themselves are gluten free, but then they throw them in the fryer
  12. This is bizarre to me that I never even thought the celiac could have been part of the cause for my hyperemesis with my pregnancy. I was SO sick throughout the first tri and half the second that my friends joked the first baby gift they would give me would be a padded toilet seat so I had somewhere to lay me head. At its worst I was sleeping in the bathtub...
  13. Has anyone eaten gluten free at taco fresco? I did a quick search and found a statement saying everything was gluten free with the exception of the tortilla's and one of the salsa's. Other than that I couldn't find anything such as gluten free reviews or a menu or anything. Anyone know?
  14. Thanks for your replies! I didn't know that the gerber wagon wheels and cheese puffs were gluten free. I will also have to look for the arrowroot teethers. Thanks so much guys!
  15. Hi all! I have an 8 month old that is ready to start on her first finger/teether foods. My husband and I both have celiac, and while I know that the suggestions of when to introduce gluten vary from different docs and organizations, my husband and I, along with her doctor have decided to keep her gluten free until she is three. My problem is, I am not sure...
  16. No problem. I hope you have a great flight!
  17. I would also check with your doctor about the tuna. I am nine months pregnant and told tuna was definitly a "no-no" food item bc of the high mercury count. Otherwise... they sell tuna in pouches now for "on the go" eating. That might be easier to get through security. Oh and real quick, for the person that posted above me, I would check with your airline...
  18. Hi all, Im sort of freaking out here. My mother, who is extremely knowledgeable in celiac threw a party today. She went as far as to prepare me some safe dishes, away from any cross contamination, and telling other guests to please not eat out of my dishes. She even changed the recipe's to exclude anything that was questionable such as natural flavoring....
  19. I will donate what isn't opened, but most of it has already been opened. I would love to tell them why I WILL NOT be buying thier products anymore, but Im not going to waste any more of my money on them by using a STAMP!!! lol
  20. My husband has now gone gluten free with me. Before this, he was a huge aldi fan and we have tons of aldi food in the house. Most say "natural flavors" on them. Now here is my vent. NONE of the products contain a customer service number, and neither does the website. Not even an email. A regular old snail mail address is on there, but who knows if anyone...
  21. Oh wow, that will help a lot! Thanks so much for the link!!
  22. Im in the same boat. Horrible stomach acid that is somewhat controlled by prevacid, but I cannot seem to find the cause. Im just wishing you the best of luck!!
  23. Boy do I feel dumb. Lol. I am the strictest person when it comes to being gluten free. How did this 'natural flavors' thing slip by me? Lol. It seems to be in EVERYTHING. I have never had ANY celiac symptoms, so if I get glutened, I wouldnt know. So I try to be extra strict. Blah. I have a lot of phone calls to make now.
  24. I was wondering if someone could give me the quick lowdown on natural flavors. Do they contain gluten or is it one of those things where if its made here it is ok, or certain types of products its ok? Im really confused!! Thanks so much!!!
  25. I have literally eaten six packages in just over a month! I think they are sooooo much better than ANY bread product I have found. Im using them to make little sandwiches and stuff. I just toast them first.
