I have no idea. Have you tried their website, emailing or calling them? I have found the email responses I have received to be very helpful.

With all the flour drifting around in one of these shops even if the cocoa itself is gluten free it most likely won't be by the time you get it. Please use a great deal of caution if you decide to try it. Personally I wouldn't touch anything from there.

here you go: https://dunkindonuts.com/aboutus/nutrition/...s&id=DD-969

it doesn't list gluten ingredients, but I would be concerned about CC- they might share machines, or even jsut the employee's gloves could be contaminated.

I worked at a Dunkin Donuts years ago as a teenager, and I still remember the baker opening a huge 30-lb bag of flour and dumping into an enormous mixer along with all the other ingredients. The cloud of flour that would rise up was almost like a mushroom cloud from an atomic bomb! I'm sure it drifted all around the store. I would be in the back cleaning up, then handling the donuts, then working the register, etc. I'm sure we were all covered with flour. I would go home at the end of the day and my grandmother would say, "you smell like a donut". I would be extremely cautious!

That is a very good point that I never even thought about. I guess I will be avoiding it!

I drink the tea and white hot chocolate from Dunkin Donuts all the time and have never had a problem.

Actually my cousin's husband owns several Dunkin Donuts. Most locations don't make their own donuts or baked goods. They are made at 1 central location and then shipped to all the others. More than often if there are a few locations within several miles of each other they are all owned by the same person, so it is easy to do this. In my cousins instance he has 1 building a few miles from all the locations where everything is made.

Not to say there isn't still a risk of cc just from having all the donuts and stuff around but I've never had an issue.

I drink D&D caramel swirl lattes all the time. I have not had a problem. Ths caramel they use is gluten free. The D&D in my area(CT) use a separate machine that dispenses the milk/espresso. Maybe where you are they still make the flavored lattes/coffee the"old way"on the counter. The donuts are not made on site here either. The hot chocolates are gluten free, but not for other allergies (dairy,corn), but they have a high fat content. I have gallbladder issues, so I get my drinks with skim milk. If I am in need of a "chocolate fix", I get a skim mocha latte. If you go to the D&D website, and look under nutritional info, everything is spelled out for you, including the top 7 food allergies. Good luck

Hi,

I too am recently diagnosed. I have learned quite a bit from emailing manufacturers. Some go out of their way to be helpful and others can't be bothered. Some, such as Ken's salad dresings, have online lists of different products that are gluten free. I love Dunkin Donuts hot chocolate, but would be afraid of contamination. I have made 2 mistakes as far as contamination goes, one with a toaster and one with peanut butter and became quite ill. Swiss Miss sugar free cocoa is gluten free. Try that its not bad, or make your own with gluten free dark chocolate.

good luck

      Inhaler problem

      By Iris Kraft · Posted

      I do not use menthol lozenge, but I have found a brand of oral probiotics that has same ingredients as Prodentim but without spending $50  bottle. I bought Naturewise Oral probiotics from Amazon at $29 a bottle for 50 chewables instead of the 30 qty. The Simbicort upset the bacteria is my mouth, had white tongue and created a dental problem with a tooth, plus the inflammation in throat, vocal cords. Used the chewable and rested it along the gum where tooth hurts 4 x on Monday. Tuesday, went to dentist and she looked at what I thought was my problem tooth and she said all looked pink and happy. No problem.  Also, I spoke with my Allergist and he said instead of two puffs am and pm, try one puff only in am.Can always add one puff in PM if needed. Rinse mouth twice and gargle twice, and brush tongue. Use the Rescue inhaler Albuterol if needed (which I didn't need to). Know that Flucasolone, Simbicort, Advair are interchangeable.

      Inhaler problem

      By Ann13 · Posted

      I have the exact same symptoms for a couple of wks now but I've been taking Symbicort for quite awhile at this point. I read you can get yeast infection in the vocal cords so I may ask my Dr. for antifungal meds cos I cant wait for an ENT exam. Also read on this site the connection between Vit D and K2 deficiency and asthma...doesn't apply to me cos mine is from mold in a house years ago but still might try and see if my asthma improves. I am Celiac and gluten causes the same symptoms but it says this inhaler is gluten free and it only started acting up so that option is out. I use Ventolin on occasion but using that for many many years. For me I will see if can switch inhalers to a brand that doesn't affect vocal cords as much, Advair is NOT one of them, plus will try the supplements. Do not suck on menthol lozenges cos menthol dries out cords more...sleeping elevated and sucking on ice chips gets the swelling down...at night this can really help especially. I can't continue like this so will get on everything this coming week.

      Just diagnosed with Celiac! Scared and feel alone.

      Did a little more research just now and found out that even though the max methane should not exceed 10. It is normal to be around 3 and not rise. Again, I was at 13 so this does make me a bit suspicious. This was done back in May of 2024. I do recall being put on 14 day Antibiotic called Rifaximin but I'm really not sure if it made a difference, but if it did, then the problems still came back:(

      I did a SIBO Test about a year ago, and I barely elevated on the Methane portion (max was 10 and I hit 13). Dr wasn't too concerned.

      Have you looked into SIBO (Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth)?  Also, MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome)/histamine intolerance (they go together like a hand and glove).  Both of the above are common in the celiac community.
