I had asked one more question of the Janet Anderson regarding Cold Stone
Creamery.  They have a White Chocolate Ice Cream.  I just wanted to make
sure that it and all other flavors were o.k.  I'm forwarding her reply.

I will be calling the company this week and I'll let you know what I
find out.  Sidona/San Diego

I work for Michael Foods, Inc, which owns the dairy company (Kohler) that
produces Cold Stone's basic ice cream mixes (sweet cream, chocolate, and the
yogurt), which is their own recipe.  They add flavors to the basic mix,
(example; mint, french vanilla) and then blast freeze in the store.

I have asked Cold Stone Corp. to check out the flavors they add to the basic
mix to see if they are gluten free.  They are working on this as we type.
They have asked for you to call Maria next week at 602-348-1704 ext. 103.
Give her some time, as you know the Cold Stone stores have many different
flavors.

My husband's gluten intolerance doesn't affect his stomach, it comes out
into his skin, especially his elbows, knees and bum if he eats any type of
gluten.  He also takes 125 mg of Dapson each day to help his body process
any gluten that may get into his system.  It has improved over the years, he
developed this at about age 28.  At our day care, we recently discovered one
of the little girls (2yrs), has this same thing.  Her mom is trying to find
new receipes and products to use in their diet.  Is there a website for this
type of problem or other individuals that would be willing to share
information on this condition?


Thanks, Janet
