I'd really like to start making my own almond milk and cashew milk. Pretty much all the nuts I can find are "packaged in a facility with wheat" yada, yada, yada. So I'm just curiuos if anyone else makes their own alternative milks, and if so, where do you buy your nuts from? Ha, hubby read this and laughed. I guess the word "nuts" is still funny no matter what age you are, lol. Anyway, thanks!

Nuts....Hee!! :D

Anywoo, I buy my nuts at Kroger in the produce section. I eat walnuts and almonds, and they carry one pound bags of each of those from Poindexter Nut Company. The bags actually say--"processed and packaged in a gluten and peanut free facility". (love that!)

Costco is the place to go, their cashews are so good! Planters sucks compared to Costco cashews and you can get a big bag of raw almonds or salted and roasted for a good price.

We buy a huge container of Sunkist Almonds at Sams and they are delicious! We buy our sunflower seeds, not nuts I know, but...at Whole Foods, their 365 brand. I may try their other nuts sometimes. We also have a hard time with nuts because you are right, most are processed on same lines as wheat. No thanks!

Oh, also the almonds we buy have no MSG!

I buy mine at Trader Joes. Nuts are listed on their gluten free list to I'm assuming. Prices seem good too I think

Just wondering, are the cashews sold at your Costco labeled with a, "Packed on" warning??? I stopped buying them, because I continued to experience set-back issues with my diet. I would be happy to find out that they are safe to eat...

I looked at the back of my almonds and cashews and yes there was a warning, but not on my walnuts which I dont understand. lol I stopped buying cashews because my dh and I can never put the dang jar down.

I am not sure if they are 100% safe, I should call Kirkland

      High blood test numbers - with scales. Any advice?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I agree with @RMJ, you have multiple positive tests so celiac disease is likely.  This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease.

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      By trents · Posted

      One small study found that 50% of celiacs react to the dairy protein "casein" like they do to gluten. It is also common for celiacs to be lactose (the sugar in milk) intolerant, though that often disappears in time as the villi heal. About 10% of celiacs react to the oat protein "avenin" like they do gluten.

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      By K6315 · Posted

      Thank you so much Trents (Scott?)! I have started working with a dietitian and did a deep research dive as soon as I got the diagnosis. I am aware of what you mentioned in the first two paragraphs, and was not aware of anything in the third, so I am grateful for that information, and will talk to the dietitian about that. I think I was most interested in the withdrawal process - it gives me hope that, although I have felt unwell recently, I just need to be patient (not a strong suit). I have printed the article you sent and will look at it more closely. Thanks again!

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @K6315! Gluten withdrawal typically lasts for a period of a few weeks. But there is a real learning curve involved in actually attaining to a gluten free dietary state. Much more is involved than just cutting out major sources of gluten such as bread and pasta. It's all the places that gluten is hidden in the food supply that is difficult to ferret out, like soy sauce and canned tomato soup, canned chili and canned pork n' beans, some "lite" pancake syrups, potato salad, flavorings, etc., etc. Gluten-containing grain products are hidden through alternate terminology and found in places you would never expect.  There is also "cross contamination" where naturally gluten free foods come into contact with gluten-containing grains during farming, transportation, storage and manufacturing processes. Then there is the issue of "cross reactivity" whereby you may be having gluten-like reaction to food proteins whose structure is similar to gluten. Chief among these are dairy, oats (even gluten-free oats), soy, corn and eggs. I am including this article that you might find helpful:
