So depressing when “gluten free” products come out.. and they have oats.. which are almost the exact same thing and rarely can people tolerate them who are truely allergic. I think I will pass! So sad!
Thanks for your comment. I agree 100%. I also have issue with oats and have made a note about that above for visitors.
I have noticed that I do better Oat free, but 100% gave up. I tried going grain free just to heal my gut, but I have so many food allergies and intolerances plus thyroid issues, that I can’t do Paleo diet or grain free. I just limit my oats. I also have Acid Reflux. Latest is they are calling Acid Reflux an allergic reaction to foods that cause it. In my case, night shades. They are saying we should just take our pills and keep eating nightshades. I decided to cut back and eat more beets instead. (I’m allergic to all meats, poultry, animal and bird products digested, birds by smell, feathers and intolerant of dairy. Dairy makes me bloats, and dry. Plus am allergic or intollerant to the entire mustard cabbage family, dandelions, rocket and or some other leaf commonly found in mixed greens, Alcohol, Vinegar (due to alcohol) a.. condiments and salad dressing (alcohol issue), cinnamon, banana. Eating out is fun with me! :P rofl
and yes, I am Celiac as well! My biggest pet peeve is that the USA defines Celiac as only eats roadkill. Vegan as alcoholic wheat lover with grass. Vegetarian as wheat grass egg lover with alcohol for good measure. (This is the majority of the restaurants and pre-packaged vegan meats and frozen meals I’ve found.) Even noodles and company insist that tofu should be purposefully cross-contaminated with gluten.
I agree with everyone I wouldn’t be able to eat this either just because it has traces of oats and oat flour in it. I have celiac disease and it would cause me to be sick for days.
