I believe Daisy is the brand I ended up buying. What amazes me is how my body is healing in just three months. I was apparently gluten sensitive for most of my life. I had almost become physically disabled. I’m getting stronger by the day. And in 2.5 months my A1C dropped from 6.5 to 6.1. I stopped counting carbs. I just went gluten free. I’ll make a prediction that one day they’ll discover that the gluten that they’ve been stuffing in our foods is a major cause of a lot of the morbidities in this country.

I'm curious to know if anyone has experienced a reaction after eating the Schar's Gluten-free Croissants? I bought them with excitement since it's been over 12 years since I've enjoyed a croissant, but was so sad this morning when I read the tiny print and saw that it has wheat starch in them. While they state it is certified gluten-free...I'm too nervous to try it. Since having COVID I find I've become more sensitive than before. Needless to say, I most likely won't eat them but I'd love to hear from this community what the experience has been. Thanks!

This is a true lesson in checking the labels every time! Even if you have been purchasing the same product for years. You just never know if the manufacturer has changed or if the ingredients have changed. Great catch.  I have seen this many times over the years.   I also agree with your second post with the addition that most conventional wheat is sprayed with glyphosate before harvest.  Start looking for the Glyphosate Free Stamps!  They are now appearing on products!

Diana J,  I as well saw and brought home the Schar"s Gluten-free croissant. I was so excited!  But then I realized it had wheat in it.   I have a wheat allergy and the celiac gene with definite gluten sensitivity. So I had to give them away. But, I wanted to share my Joy when I was visiting my Daughter in VA and found a Gluten-Free Bakery that had Gluten-free croissants!!  I live in Massachusetts so sadly I thought I would only be able to enjoy it while I was in VA.  But to my surprise, they arrived at my doorstep for my Birthday!  They deliver! "Rise Bakery"  Riseglutenfree.com  Is their website.  Now they do taste like a real buttery croissant but they are not as fluffy and light as a real glutenous croissant, but they were wonderful!
