Nestle Toll House Chocolate Morsels?

I was wondering if Nestle's semi sweet and milk chocolate morsels were gluten free so I called and got a recording. The recording said that they list the big 8 allergens if it's in the product or if it's made on the same line. They did say anything about gluten though so should I still be worried? Does anyone use this brand of chocolate morsels/chips? If not, what brand is safe? I know enjoy life, but I need to be able to find them at Wal-mart and at a reasonable price.

Also, just to be sure McCormick pure vanilla extract and all powdered sugar should be safe, correct?

Thanks!

I use all those things. Just watch some of the other flavors of chips. We got a butterscotch with malt (barley)

Thanks so much! This will be my first time working with baking ingredients since going gluten free and I just wanted to be double sure about everything! : )

      Welcome to the forum, @breadbreadbaby! We cannot comment on your test numbers until you also provide the reference ranges used by the lab doing the analysis. Different labs construct the test analysis differently and used different reference ranges, Hence, there are no industry standards. You will likely have to repost the existing information in a new post as I don't think you will be able to edit your original. These two tests are the only ones that are celiac specific for which we need the reference ranges:  IgA - .98 Tissue transglutaminase IgA Ab 45.4  Urate and ferritin are not specific tests for celiac disease. Urate is a test for uric acid levels and would be something run when gout is suspected. Ferritin is an iron storage protein. Though not a celiac specific test, iron stores are often depleted in those with long term celiac disease because of the damage done to the lining of the small bowel by celiac disease. The small bowel is the portion of the intestinal track where all of the nutrition from what we eat is absorbed, including minerals like iron and the vitamins necessary to assimilate iron like B12. Many celiacs have few if any GI symptoms. This is common. We call them "silent celiacs". I was one of them. Silent celiacs are usually discovered indirectly because they develop health issues or irregular lab values indicative of vitamin and mineral malabsorption. In my case, it was elevated liver enzymes which had no other explanation. It took 13 years for me to get that figured out after the first appearance of elevated liver enzymes. By that time, I had experience significant bone demineralization.

      Just as a follow-up — I guess I’m wondering if I could have a false positive, despite how elevated it seems to be? My doctor said a biopsy doesn’t make sense considering the high result and the lack of GI symptoms but still unsure what I’ll do.

      I have very (very very) newly been diagnosed with celiac and to be honest the diagnosis came out of nowhere. I’m trying to find information on the values and whether or not certain numbers mean a more severe case.  These are my numbers: IgA - .98 Tissue transglutaminase IgA Ab 45.4  Urate 129  Ferritin 126 (H)   I have no GI symptoms — what prompted testing is life-long extreme fatigue and sore joints (10+ hours a night plus 1-3+ hr naps) Thanks for your help!

      My iron is good I had it checked 3 times prior to being diagnosed with Celiac. My energy is better at night which is weird. I need it more during the day to function. This  has been hard to deal with emotionally, mentaly and pysically. Thank God that this website exists. Its helped me considerably since the doctor was of no help. Every body is different and I know that it will take me longer to heal I just have to stay positive and wait.  Also are you hungry ever?
