They do..but be aware, those packages of cookies have oats in them and a lot of celiacs can't have oats...myself being one of them. I was so excited that I bought the cookies without reading the ingredients properly :angry: They do sell fruit and nut bars that are gluten free and delish as well though!!

oh ok Im sorry that you can't have oats.

I had an extremely violent reaction from that product and emailed the Lucy company, and they mentioned that there is a huge possibility of the oats being contaminated.

What about the flavorings in Starbucks coffee? I am newly gluten-free, and I can't figure out if I can have the Caramel or the Pumpkin Spice flavors in my lattes. Or if I can have the frappacinos. Starbucks won't say if anything is gluten-free. Anyone have info on this?

I read on this site not to drink the frappachinos because some of them do contain gluten and they don't wash the blenders between, just a light rinse. Maybe you could ask for a fresh blender and find out which flavours are gluten free, because some must be. I believe the caramel is gluten free, I drink caramel macciatos on occasion and I'm pretty sensitive.

Best way to find out is to go in during a non-busy time and ask exactly what goes into the latte. For a Caramel Latte it would usually be just espresso, frothed milk, and carmel syrup flavoring. Ask to see the bottle of caramel flavoring--you can read the ingredients for yourself. Also ask about whipped cream and if they use a different caramel for the topping. The whipped cream if made fresh in the store "should" be safe, but they will usually add a flavoring to it so you have to ask how it is made and find out the ingredients of that flavoring as well(I used to work at a coffee house-not Starbucks).

      Correct. I’m doing both in the same go though. Thanks for clarifying before I confused someone. I’m doing a colonoscopy for something else and then they added the endoscopy after the test.

      It is a biopsy but it's not a colonoscopy, it's an endoscopy.

      Well I’m going on the gluten farewell tour so they are about to find out lol. I keep saying biopsy but yeah it’s a scope and stuff. I’m a dummy but luckily my doctor is not.

      The biopsy for celiac disease is done of the small bowel lining and in conjunction with an "upper GI" scoping called an endoscopy. A colonoscopy scopes the lower end of the intestines and can't reach up high enough to get to the small bowel. The endoscopy goes through the mouth, through the stomach and into the duodenum, which is at the upper end of the intestinal track. So, while they are scoping the duodenum, they take biopsies of the mucosal lining of that area to send off for microscopic analysis by a lab. If the damage to the mucosa is substantial, the doc doing the scoping can often see it during the scoping.
