Pages: 1 Question on Tofutti vanilla "ice cream"       #371146 - 04/27/14 05:10 PM Edit Reply Quote Candy07 Reged: 08/13/13 Posts: 329 Hello, About a week ago, I had some of this product on top of a safe apple crisp my husband and I made. After eating it, I developed cramps and the next day, I had many bowel movements. The BMs were all normal, but I just have a hunch the ice cream caused this? Has anyone else on this board tried this product? If so, how did it work out for you? THANKS MUCH!! http://www.tofutti.com/frozen-desserts/pints/vanilla/ -------------------- Originally diagnosed with IBS-C in Spring, 2008. During spring to fall of 2008, had at least 10 acupuncture treatments and Chinese herbs. IBS went into remission. IBS returned in late July 2013 after taking 2 oral contrasts for a CT scan for cancer follow up. Had more acupuncture with different practitioner in summer 2014, but received little benefit.

They really vary. They're all delicious but the high fat ones aren't safe. - H -------------------- Heather is the Administrator of the IBS Message Boards.

I eat beef sometimes and that never seems to bother me. I will try the ice cream soon by itself and see how I do. Thanks to all for your replies and assistance.
