Cadbury's Cream Eggs

I thought I'd add my two cents. ;) Cadbury is made by Hershey's. Hershey's is a very unfriendly company to those on a gluten free diet, so I would not buy their products on principle. Also these eggs contain "natural flavors" so they will not tell you if they are truly gluten free! :angry: I need to do more research on glucose syrup before I make a decision about that.

Mars is a gluten free friendly company. Dove truffle eggs DO have gluten free ingredients...and they are DELICIOUS! (I didn't even buy any for my son's Easter basket for the fear that I'd eat them all! :P )

Totally agree. Dove has WAY better chocolate than Hershey's.

Thank you so much cruelshoes! It is good to know that I can safely ingest glucose syrup and maltodextrin.

Yes, I just made the same discovery, having called Hershey's to ask if Cadbury bars were gluten-free. She said that although there did not appear to be any ingredients that had gluten, she would not commit to saying they were gluten-free. I couldn't believe it. They are the final authority; they should know what is in their products. Boo, Hershey's.

      I think most of us, when we first got our diagnosis, imagined that going gluten free would be the magic the bullet that would restore us to perfect health. We soon find out that it usually isn't quite that simple and that celiac disease has long fingers.

      Thanks! I still have much to learn, I'd hoped going gluten-free would be a magic bullet and I'm learning my system is still very sensitive which is overwhelming and discouraging at times. Thanks for the yogurt tip! There is comfort in knowing that this is common during early healing and I'm not alone!

      Thanks so much for the response. Are you usually able to pinpoint a trigger when you get the pain again? What I didn’t share in my earlier post is that I also usually eat out on weekends (though I share celiacs/needs to be gluten-free) and I’ve also been under a lot of stress lately in my personal life. While I’m speculating that it’s the wine it could certainly be a number of things. Do you ever notice the pain more when you are stressed? Learning so much about the brain/gut connection and celiacs. Thanks, there is comfort in hearing others have experienced similar symptoms.

      This was my main symptom. I still get it from time to time. Also feels like a burning pain on the upper abdomen. I think the wine could definitely cause the pain to be worse. There are do many things I still can't eat.

      Yes and this is true of gluten free ready made, processed and prepackaged foods in general. In particular, hard to digest polysaccharides are commonly used in these products that give many celiacs issues and I personally don't handle some emulsifiers well. IMO, reactions to these ingredients are often mistaken for a gluten reaction.
