Summer Treats (Ice Cream, Etc)

I hadn't put any thought to this until my parents recently mentioned they had wanted to get my son an ice cream treat then realized they shouldn't.

Are there ice cream brands known for being gluten free, or at least "gluten friendly" where some flavors are fine? And what about things like snowballs, etc?

This is something that I know when we're out and about can make for fun treats, but - perhaps not so much.

My famiily has had no problems with going to DQ for ice cream. At least not so far.

We do DQ. Just be careful with the mix-in kinds. They might have made an oreo or cookie dough one right before yours and they don't clean between mixings. I think a lot of the prepackaged ice cream bars, fudgesicles, popsicle things are OK. Check the ingredients or website if there is a brand or kind you like. Also, Frosties at Wendy's are supposed to be gluten-free (once again, watch the mix-ins). My son got m&m but there was some oreo in his -not sure which place we were at. Doesn't matter to him.

The Vanilla and Chocolate soft serve at DQ and Dilly Bars and Starkisses are gluten free. Dairy Queen had a great list of gluten free items on their website which was recently updated. McDonald's ice cream and chocolate and vanilla milkshakes are also gluten free. Breyer's Natural Ice Creams (chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry) are gluten free.

Most of the fudgisicle ingredients which I've come across contain gluten (malt flavoring) and some popsicles also have gluten in them. All Dove chocolate ice cream products are gluten free. I hope this helps. I was recently diagnosed but have been researching this are because I love ice cream!

I eat Luigi's Italian Ices from the grocery store. They are gluten-free and have a variety pack of 3 flavors. Not bad at all. Add a little soda to the top and let them thaw a bit and the are a little fancier.

I eaten numerous snowballs and none have given me any trouble.

      I haven't been on the site for a while and I have some update info.   Genetic tests show I have the Celiac markers and high risk for Celiacs's  (10X it shows).  Immoglobulin A and G are low - just below the 'green' range; immoglobulin M is in the 'green'.  Zinc, Iron, magnesium, ferritin, and b12 are all in the 'green' range. I've been off the PPI for two weeks now and no real problems...minor heart burn and OTC antacids fix that.  So that's good to be off of that for good. I switched to a b complex sub lingual vitamin. I was surprised about the genetic results on Celiac markers. To my knowledge no one in my family had it or were diagnosed with it.  But they could have had and never been diagnosed.  And at 76 this has come up for me. Gluten free diet is going well and I do feel better on it - nothing major in changes - just better. I appreciate all the advice I've gotten on this site - lots of experience knowledge to draw on here. So thank you, all.

      Does anyone know if Citracal Petites supplements for Calcium and Vitamin D3 are gluten free?
    • Sergiu2020
      Good point. I will go to the pharmacy to ask who is the provider of this Augmentin and i'll contact them. The problem is i need to know about it very fast cuz i am already delaying the antibiotics administration. My little girl is not afraid of injections but i cannot say she likes them. It's normal. We did choose the syrup solutions because it was the easiest. Of course where there are flavors added...the mighty gluten may be present or not. Thanks a lot for your time and for the reply! 👏

      You can always just double up or triple up on whatever gluten free chewable multivitamin product you may already be using. That should cover the bases. Celiacs need the same vitamins and minerals as non celiacs, just in higher doses to compensate for less efficient absorption. Are you wanting to boost any particular vitamins or minerals? I seriously doubt you will find a vitamin product specifically designed for celiac kids. There just isn't a big enough market for such a product to provide the incentive for a company to invest in such a product line.
