    Celiac.com 10/26/2023 - We get a lot of questions about foods and food products. We've recently gotten a bunch about chocolate. Lately questions seem to be about Mr. Goodbar. Mr. Goodbar is a candy bar made from crunchy, smooth and sweet milk chocolate with the crunch of peanuts, and is produced by The Hershey Company.

    Is Mr. Goodbar gluten-free and safe for people with celiac disease? The short answer is no.

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
     Although the ingredients in Mr. Goodbar contain no gluten, Hershey does not list it on its gluten-free range of products as “being fully evaluated and qualify as gluten-free using standards established by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)."

    Mr. Goodbar ingredients include:

    • Milk Chocolate, Sugar, Cocoa Butter, Chocolate, Skim Milk, Milk Fat, Lecithin, Salt, Natural Flavors, Peanuts

    Mr. Goodbar does not appear on our list of popular gluten-free candy bars. But, it does appear on our UNSAFE HALLOWEEN CANDY LIST. 

    Because of this, Mr.Goodbar is not regarded as gluten-free. There may be some cross-contamination issues with their processing/packaging of Mr. Goodbar candy bars.

    Celiac.com 12/03/2021 - We get a lot of questions from celiac community members wondering if certain products are gluten-free. One question we see a lot is about chocolate. 
    Specifically, is Lindt Chocolate Bear gluten-free and safe for people with celiac disease? 
    The question refers to the numerous chocolate holiday bears put out by the Lindt chocolate company.

    For this reason, the Lindt Ch...

      And yes, of course it's better to know and we will adjust. It's just, he's 7 and in our house we can control what he gets. But he plays soccer 3 times a week and in the changing room the boys share candies. I can and will tell him not to accept them any more, but "mistakes" will be made. I'm really burdened by the potential social impact...

      Thank you for your reaction. The reference values are both "<10", although I found a medical paper from Netherlands (I'm Belgian) who use the same values and there the see a positive daignosis as twice more then 200 and a positive biopsie. I didn't see how to change this in my original message, sorry...

      Hi Kathleen Welcome to the forum. I am based in the UK so I am just picking this post up before our US based moderators appear. I think they will want to know the lab values of both of the figures you have provided us with (min/max reading) as they tend to vary - could you post those for us, please? We see a lot of coeliacs who also have helicobacter...

      Hi all, I'm very new at this and 'this' has been quite a rollercoaster ride. Last august my 7 year old son suddenly had these colic like pain attacks that would come a few times per day/night during 10 days. Because they were that bad and because our older daughter had her appendix taken out at 7, we ended up at ER twice to have him checked...
