B) Aloha,

I just bought some pop-secret microwave homestyle popcorn made w/real butter and salted. I think pop-secret is ok? it's made by General mills I didn't see anything odd in the ingredients except natural and artificial flavors.

Does anyone know? Thanks, Suzanne

General Mills will not hide anything so if it didn't say wheat,rye,barley,oats on the label it's safe.

Supposedly somewhere out there there is one mega butter flavor of one popcorn that isn't gluten-free, but other than that all the popcorns I've ever checked or heard about have been gluten-free. Pop Secret is gluten-free.

I do not believe the Smart Balance Microwave popsorn is gluten-free. THey would not confirm, and when I ate it anyway I got pretty sick. According to the Delphi lists, All ORville except the Caramel pour-on or the BBQ kind is gluten-free. All ACT II is gluten-free. All JIffy POp and JOlly Time is gluten-free.

You have all been such a blessing to us through our daughter's experience with Celiacs. It is a honor to be able to give back even if just a tiny bit.

Well long story short, we just had our first gluten attack in about a year and it was 100% from Pop Secret Homestyle Popcorn.

Popped in a movie and popped some corn and whammo.....within 30 mins, the burping and stomach pain began.

Good news is that it must be a tiny tiny amount (we guess, please be gentle, we are still learning) as she only had the reaction for about 20 mins and she is now fine.

We thought a shot of gluten after a year without would be much worse than it was.

Same exact attack as she was getting (style wise, burping, massive gas and style of pain) when we didn't know it was Celiacs and just kept giving her cheeseburger happy meals. Ouch!! Insert bad parent guilt here. :(

Anyway, even if many have not had a reaction, please be aware we had one on Pop Secret Homestyle microwave tonight.

Here's hoping for a cure someday.

      Hi, 25f who recently had a endoscopy procedure to diagnose celiac disease. Mum and uncle are both diagnosed celiacs. I've had symptoms over the past year - headaches that have become debilitating and frequent, feeling faint and nauseous with high heart rate, diarrhea and constipation, anemia, and recently my periods have become almost non existent. My doctor sent me a letter yesterday saying this " biopsies from the duodenum show some very mild features that could be in keeping with celiac disease but also could be due to other causes". I am waiting on an appointment to see him in the clinic to discuss this but in the meantime I wanted to check if anyone else has experienced this? I was eating plenty of gluten before my camera test and for the past 2 weeks have completely cut it out of my diet and I'm seeing changes in my bowel movements for the first time in my life! Headaches, dizziness etc are still there but maybe it takes longer for them to go away? Any help would be so appreciated -  I feel so lost in this whole process!!

      Did your symptoms improve after going on a gluten-free diet?

      Thank you for sharing your genetic test results and background. Your results indicate you carry one half of the DQ2 heterodimer (DQA1*05), which is associated with a very low celiac disease risk (0.05%). While most celiac patients have either DQ2 or DQ8, these genes are also present in people without celiac disease, so the test alone doesn’t confirm a diagnosis. Since you’ve been gluten-free for 10 years, traditional diagnostic methods (like endoscopy or blood tests) would not be reliable now. If an official diagnosis is important to you, consider discussing a gluten challenge with your doctor, where you reintroduce gluten for a period before testing. Alternatively, you could focus on symptom management and dietary adherence, as your gluten-free diet seems to be helping. Consulting a gastroenterologist or celiac specialist could provide further clarity.  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      @cvz Thank you for sharing your daughter’s story. It sounds like she is managing multiple complex conditions with great care and diligence. It’s encouraging to hear that she is compliant with her gluten-free diet and that her Addison’s disease symptoms are under control. The addition of electrolytes seems like a thoughtful suggestion, especially given her fluid intake. It’s also reassuring that she hasn’t shown noticeable symptoms from accidental gluten exposure, though it’s understandable how challenging it can be to monitor for such incidents. The unexplained high lipase levels are intriguing—perhaps further investigation or consultation with a specialist could provide more clarity. Wishing you both continued strength and success in managing her health. Please keep us updated on her progress!
