Has anyone tried Hudsonville Mackinac Island Fudge Ice Cream?

Has anyone had any issues with gluten-free Hudsonville ice cream? I bought some this weekend and it was great. However, I experienced bloating, cramping and belching. I do not know if it was the white rice I ate earlier or the ice cream. Just wondering if anyone else had issues with the ice cream. It has a lot of ingredients which makes me a little nervous (not crazy about xanthan gum which included. I hope it was not the ice cream - it was awesome!

I was wondering the same thing because I wanted the blue moon ice cream and this is what they sent me......

We have many gluten free flavors!  There is a gluten-free icon on the sides of our containers for all gluten free flavors. You can also visit our website to find out which flavors are gluten free.  Open Original Shared Link

 

We do process gluten on the same equipment as our gluten free flavors but the lines are thoroughly cleaned afterwards and we test the equipment to verify all the gluten has been removed.  

 looks like they process gluten in the same equipment I don’t think I’ll be purchasing this ice cream. Wish I knew of an ice cream that was good and didn’t do this.

@Jherm21— I would trust this company.  They at least are taking precautions.  Try sticking with vanilla which is the #1 flavor in the US and they probably make huge batches of it.  The OP might have temporary lactose intolerance or celiac-related GI issues since he recently stated that he still has some villi damage on his last endoscopy.

Thanks cyclinglady! I feel better now I know you know your stuff :)  I just really want to try the blue moon one.  I love vanilla but the blue kind reminds me of when I was a kid. It does have a gluten-free symbol on it. I have yet to try the breyers gluten free vanilla one. Is there a breyers lactose free version that’s celiac safe? Maybe for OP and myself.  Sometimes I get constipated if I have too many milk products days at a time.

      Glutening symptom? oily stool

      By ognam · Posted

      Has anyone had Steatorrhea (oily/fatty poop) as a temporary glutening symptom or should I be concerned I've introduced chronic gluten somewhere (like in meds)? I haven't gotten Steatorrhea since before I went gluten free. However, I moved in the past few weeks and haven't been as careful - I've eaten at restauraunts with cross contamination but only experienced minor symptoms like headache. The past week, I ate only gluten free food at home except I went to Red Robin and got fries (told them gluten-free; allergy). The next day I had Steatorrhea and the day after that.   I know it's a symptom of malabsorption so I was wondering if it was the kind of thing that could be caused by one event or if it was due to a more chronic issue. Of course I will speak to a GI but I recently moved and need to find one.   Thank you for any info

      Anyone else with very high HDL?

      By plumbago · Posted

      A relative has opened another door for me on this issue -- the possibility of menopause raising HDL. Most studies suggest that menopause decreases HDL-C, however, one study found that often it's increased. "Surprisingly, HDL cholesterol was higher (p < 0.001) in postmenopausal women by 11%. Further, the number of women who had low HDL cholesterol was higher in pre vs. postmenopausal women. The range of ages were 26–49 years for pre-menopausal and 51–74 years for postmenopausal women. "This interesting finding has also been observed by other investigators. It is possible that the observed increase in HDL-C in postmenopausal women could be due to a protective mechanism to counterbalance the deleterious effects of biomarkers associated with menopause. However, further studies are needed to confirm this theory. And to the point raised earlier about functionality: "...some patients with elevated HDL-C concentrations could remain at risk for coronary events if HDL is not functional and some authors have suggested that this could be the case for menopausal women." Postmenopausal Women Have Higher HDL and Decreased Incidence of Low HDL than Premenopausal Women with Metabolic Syndrome. By no means to I think this is definitive, rather food for thought.

      Increasing symptoms after going gluten free

      Yes, lots of delicious things have barley malt. It also doesn't include rye. And there are a number of grains commonly cross contaminated such as oats.   Additionally, wheat allergies are different from gluten allergies as wheat allergies are a reaction to a wheat protein. So something *could* contain wheat gluten without causing a wheat allergic response (though realistically,  I don't know how likely that is to occur)

      Although it is true that FDA regulations don't require gluten to be included in allergy info, it does require wheat and ingredients made from wheat to be listed. Of course, that doesn't preclude gluten from barley being found in a product.

      Increasing symptoms after going gluten free

      By ognam · Posted

      I had a lot of weird/random symptoms for a few months after going gluten free. But eventually they evened out and I felt SO MUCH BETTER. The person above wrote a very detailed message that looks helpful. I'd add don't forget to check for gluten in places like medicine. Advil liquigels, for example, have gluten. It's very frustrating trying to figure out if things are gluten free as us law doesn't require it to be declared. The only labeling rule is that if the product says gluten free, it must have less than 20ppm gluten.
