I found this and am excited because I miss juice so much. It's only for the GALLON size. I emailed them to see if it was indeed corn free. Here is what they said.

Thank you for contacting us with your questions and concerns regarding ascorbic acid and corn derivatives in our 1 gallon size Tree Top Apple Juice.

There is no added ascorbic acid in our gallon size apple juice, and there is no chance of cross contamination. Products containing ascorbic acid or HFCS are processed at the end of the production day after products without added ingredients or on a production day by themselves. The production is then followed with a full clean, rinse and sanitizer step before the next production.

If you have further questions please do not hesitate to contact us at 1-800-542-4055.

Sincerely,

TREE TOP, INC.

I don't have a corn issue but don't they come in little soda type cans? I think we used to get those.

Edited:

I miss read.... I thought you said you thought there was only a gallon size. The other sizes aren't corn free?

Only the GALLON size is corn free. The other sizes have ascorbic acid which is from corn. Thats the problem with corn allergens and juice. The citric or ascorbic acids come from corn. This is a rare find!

I'm asking because I want to learn and I find it appalling and rediculous that they would have different ingredients for things that seem the same. So...I looked at the cans on the website because you reminded me of them. I thought those might me good for my boys coolers while working outside ( lots of potassium ). The cans just say apple concentrate and water. Aren't they supposed to list the acids?

Really, Hon....I don't know how you do it! Corn is everywhere. It's even growing in the vacant lot down the street!

There's a great documentary on corn: Open Original Shared Link. I think I watched it on NetFlix. It's less about the food uses, and more about the growing and how messed up it is, genetically.

If the cans say apple juice concentrate and water then those are corn free too! I'll have to look for them. If you look on the cans, it will say Vitamin C is zero. The stuff they add to juice to get it to have the 100% daily rec. of vitamin C is synthetic crap from corn. I like that Tree Top apple juice is from the USA too.

Yu are right about corn being in EVERYTHING! I am sitting here with bad period cramps and have to suffer b/c advil. tylenol etc. has corn starch in it. :(

Funny about the empty lot with the corn. I live across the street from a huge corn field. I'm just so glad it's not a wheat field!

I'll have to check out that movie. Sounds interesting!

      Eczema or dermatitis herpetiformis

      By dublin555 · Posted

      I’ve been through something similar recently, and I know how frustrating it can be when nothing seems to work. Based on what you’ve described, it might be worth considering dermatitis herpetiformis, especially with the family history of celiac disease. Testing could give you some answers, and while online kits aren’t as reliable as a GP, they’re a good start if appointments are hard to get. I also found relief through medical cannabis for my eczema, at Releaf, a clinic in the UK that offers eczema medical cannabis treatment. They start with a low dose, adjust weekly, and track progress through online consultations.

      Symptoms & waiting on blood test results

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Jaylan! Almost all of the symptoms and medical conditions you describe have been found to be associated with celiac disease. But they can also be caused by other things as well. There certainly is enough circumstantial evidence in your list of medical problems to warrant being tested for celiac disease. Ask your physician to order a celiac panel consisting of, at the very minimum, these two blood antibody tests: total IGA and tTG-IGA. Please do not attempt to limit your gluten intake before the blood draw is taken or you will invalidate the testing. Incidentally, celiac disease is often misdiagnosed as IBS.

      Symptoms & waiting on blood test results

      By Jaylan · Posted

      Hi there!  I’ve recently been tested for celiac disease, along with other autoimmune diseases. My symptoms started back in 2018 with joint pain in my knees. Since then, it has progressively worsened. I now have joint pain in both knees, elbows, and sometimes my shoulders. The pain is almost unbearable. I feel so stiff in the mornings, and this stiffness can last the whole day. I also experience swelling and warmth around those areas.   Other symptoms include IBS (diagnosed at age 16), restless legs, chest pain, tiredness, miscarriages, bloating, and sharp pain on the right side of my stomach. In the past, I’ve also had problems with a vitamin D deficiency, and my serum folate levels recently came back very low.   My question is: How likely is it that I have celiac disease?
