Kraft Carmels


jams

Recommended Posts

I was at Walgreens today picking up my pictures. My 4yr old daughter spotted the carmels by the Halloween candy. I was very sad because I thought I couldn't have them. I then noticed that they are made by Kraft (so nothing will be hidden). I read the ingredients and they seem to be fine!! :D

I am so excited to open them all and melt them. I then will dunk my apple in and ENJOY! It is so funny that I am back to "the simple things in life"! :P

:D Yum, I think I will do the same. Do you know of any candy corn that is gluten-free?

I picked up the ingredients yesterday - we're making them tomorrow.... if we have any caramels left! *i bought three bags, so there will be enough*

Candy corn? I wish. Brach's is sort of probably most likely :P gluten-free, but they claim that they aren't due to possible contamination. I never know what to do in those instances. Being cautious, I have not eaten them. Haven't heard of any BIG brand that you could find in any store being gluten-free.

My son eats the brachs and has no problem. I called a couple years ago and they said they were gluten free.... Was I playing russian roulette with the boy??? :o

Today they told me that Brachs candy corn had 20 parts per millions whatever that means. The ingredients are gluten-free but cross contamination is a possibility in their facility they said.

Someone told me to that Farley's candy corn is gluten-free. I bought some yesterday and there is a statement about possible cross contamination. I ate some anyway!

      My 10 year old daughter was diagnosed with Celiac 2 weeks ago. We've been on gluten free diet now for 2 weeks. She still experiences abdominal pain at times , and is struggling with fatigue. What is everyone's experience with how long it takes for the body to heal and stabilize after starting the gluten free diet? Thanks for any feedback!

      thank you for the insight  Thank a small elevation can be due to this or is it more likely to be cross contamination ?

      HEY HB333!! Did you ever find out what you had???  I’ve been having those same things for 10 months almost a year now!! but I’ve also been in extreme agonizing hell!!  With those bumps, I’ve become itchy everywhere to the point we’re not be able to do anything but itch and cry for hours!! they have gotten so bad they’re all over my body head to toe. I have stuff coming off my scalp and stuff coming out of my ears and all my nails are brittle and breaking and I’ve got stuff under my nails and it’s even in my nose and my eyebrows, and I don’t know what to do!!!   But I’m having those little bumps just like you and white stuff around them and then my hair follicles have white stuff on them and my skin is breaking open and leaking white stuff and my dermatologist in the ER won’t help and I don’t know what to do!!! nobody knows what it is!! I really need help!! did you ever figure out what it was???

      It could be. Think I'll just have to avoid that cereal. Thank for suggestion..

      "Similar proteins to the gliadin found in wheat exist as secalin in rye, hordein in barley, and avenins in oats, and are collectively referred to as 'gluten'. The gluten found in all of these grains has been identified as the component capable of triggering the immune-mediated disorder, celiac disease." https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28244676/   "However, it is necessary to consider that oats include many varieties, containing various amino acid sequences and showing different immunoreactivities associated with toxic prolamins. As a result, several studies have shown that the immunogenicity of oats varies depending on the cultivar consumed." https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26557006/   "In 2007, a study showed that all the varieties of oats tested were immunogenic, with Lampton and Ava avenins inducing lymphocyte activation similar to that activated by wheat gliadin, while Astra and Nave avenins showed less immunogenicity, but still with a measurable effect.6 In 2011, a study showed that there is a wide range of variation of potential immunotoxicity of oat cultivars. It concluded some oat strains are more toxic than others." https://glutenfreeworks.com/blog/2011/06/20/why-oats-should-be-excluded-from-the-gluten-free-diet/   Silano M, Benedetto RD, Maialetti F, et al.
