    I chatted with a Nescafe representative. This is the transcript: Hello, you are now chatting with 'Mellisa' Mellisa: Hello! Thank you for contacting Taster's Choice. How can I assist you today? Visitor: Hi. Your FAQ states that Nescafe taster's choice is gluten free. Is the decaf also gluten free & does it include ALL flavors? Mellisa: I...

    Hi. I'm reading with interest all of these posts and I am with you on this subject. I've had a terrible reaction to a rice cake, which actually did note on the package "made in a facility that uses wheat products". I missed the note on the label and only saw it after my reaction. Because I am extremely sensitive to cross contamination, even if the ingredients...

    Thank you, I'll be on the lookout for kosher coconut milk & I'm feeling so much less deprived knowing this. For now, I'll just add a little more sugar to my instant coffee..... Sarah

    Hi. There is a new Gluten Free Cracker by Kenover Marketing Corp out of Brooklyn, NY. I called to find out if they make these on a designated line, and they do. I know of three flavors, original-onion-basil. These are really delicious and in my opinion really worth trying. I know that they will be selling these in most Kosher Food Stores in New York, but...

    will do, thanks so much

    You are probably right and I will do just as you suggest. I will miss those bars sorely as they were a terrific afternoon snack but as with everthing else I had to give up I'm sure I'll master this hurdle too. I'm at my children's/grandchildren ths week and I'm cooking dinners for all and not eating a thing, so I'm sure I'll be able to stay away from the...

    I can not eat oats (proven after being gluten free for 6 months, but eating gluten free oat bread and not getting any better)but the bars I eat don't have oats. Do you think that I still should drop it because of possible contamination? I didn't think of this even though I knew that some of their bars contain oats. What do you think? I don't have lesions...

    Hopeful1950, I use naturtint 4N, it's dark chestnut and it has wheat protein. I also use suave colorcare shampoo & conditioner daily which has wheat germ. No tatoos here. Are you saying that even hair dye that does not contain gluten might be a problem? If yes, I'll just go gray. I NEED these itchy pimples (as my daughter calls them) to GO AWAY...

    Hopeful, I, too, experience itching and burning worse in the evening and sometimes nothing during the day and only in the evenings. This week I developed a blister/lesion on my face and it's depressing me. I've had this condition for 4 years and only once or twice developed something on my face but it never lasted more than a day and never left a scar...

    My story is exactly the same. The gastro docs said it's in my head and that I should get a grip on my life, and the skin docs said they have no idea what it is. I was finally diagnosed by a skin specialist who didn't take any tests. He studied my history of tests which I brought with me and he listened while I told him all that I've been through (ten years...

    I suspect so. Wish the information on the box would say this in a more obvious place or manner. It's sad that companies producing the products don't take extra care in how they market their stuff. I have to think they just don't realize how people suffer as a consequence of eating something they are not allowed to eat.

    Hi everyone. I was diagnosed with celiac a year ago. I started experiencing stomach trouble 15 years ago. I had extreme stomach pains combined with non stop diarrhea, gas, the works. The Gynecologists I went to, after testing me via upper and lower endoscopy decided that "my problem is in my head." "Get a grip on your life" is exactly what the doctor told...

    I've been eating Wise Pot Chips this week without having a reaction. I'm going to switch to Utz and Lays Stax when I find them. Been looking... Thanks guys!

    Another vote for Tinkyada. I find that even after cooking, I warm it up in the microwave and really like it. I can't wait to start eating dairy so that I can have my favorite spaghetti and cheese dish!!

    When you can't sleep, take a bath with some baking soda or wash the area itching with baking soda & water. I fall asleep immediately after doing this. It's a wonderful solution I read on another site (forgot which).

    I had to laugh out loud reading your last comment. I bought a packet of mixed nuts and fruit labeled gluten free & came home and read the "rest of the information" & lo and behold it lists as being made in a plant that also uses oat. Now why would the package be labeled gluten free if there might be cross contamination of oats? I feel the same way...

    I'm committing to home cooking for now too. Especially now that I know about Lays Stax, Utz, and Lundberg rice cakes. Thanks!

    sounds good to me. I'm going with your advice although I'll watch this thread in case someone tells us othewise. thanks.

    Ok. I'm learning to read labels. I thought I knew how to read labels but now I really know how. Every side every word.

    Fantastic! You just added two items to my grocery list. Thank you. I was diagnosed 11 months ago but three months later I started baking bread with gluten free oat flour not realizing that not all celiacs can tolerate this flour. 7 months down the road I'm back to where I was. It took a while for the full impact/damage to take place. It's psychologically...

    Lisa, Thank you so much for responding. I will certainly look for Lays Stax. I'm a potato chip freak One more question: two days ago I ate rice cakes, and only noticed today while eating some more, and running to the bathroom every 15 minutes...that there is an allergy warning on package made in plant that uses wheat and soy. Is it possible that I'm...

    Am I understanding correctly that if my daughter using the oven rack for wheat bread & I only use the oven placing my gluten free foods in a pan on the rack, I can have a reaction to this? Even if my food does not touch the rack? Please explain. I'm a newbie. Thanks.

    I was wondering if anyone can advise on eating processed foods, like wise potato chips, which list ingredients that are gluten free, but does not label the package "gluten free". Since Wise makes products that are not gluten free, is it "wise" to stay away and be safe? I thank you in advance for taking the time to read and responding.
