MMMM MMMM! MY FAVORITE TOPIC!!!!! LOL! Ok, white chocolate chips in the baking aisle are great, if you can eat nuts theres those pepperidge farms cookies with white choco and macadamia nuts, make sure u read the ingredients first, in case something is in there u cant handle. I found white fudge w/pretzel bits in it at target and carrot cake cookies w/white choco same place, there may be some soy stuff in them, if that bothers ya, stick w/the white chips. You can melt the chips and dip pretzels in them! Or dip Nilla wafers in it! Candy, I can eat Milkfulls, peppermints, cinnamon sticks and disks, some taffys depending on the flavor and whats in them, if you can eat peanut butter, theres the recees white choco pnut butter cups, right now M&M's have white choco ones, some ppl have reacted to the dyes so if you react to dyes skip em. Caramels are good too. Hope this is a good start for ya! :D Thanks for making me hungry ;) Kidding.

I can eat Reece Pieces without any problems
Regular stores: White chocolate KitKats. Original Werthers. Panda Black Licorice*
At the health food store: carob malt balls & carob raisins, maple sugar candy.
Enjoy!
*Be careful of other brands or of red licorice: they often have citric acid in them. Oww.

Thanks All! I didn't realize that there were so many white chocolate candy out there! Why is white chocolate ok? Does it not have caffeine?

It doesnt have cocoa, which is an irritant to the bladder. It has cocoa BUTTER, but thats not cocoa :D

you have to watch some candies (like the kit kats) becuase they have caffiene in them in small ammounts from some regular chocolate being added in. It all depends on how sensitive you are tho.

So white chocolate shouldn't have caffeine in it unless they mix a little regular chocolate to it. Is it the cocoa that has the caffeine so I know when I read the labels. I can't eat kit kats anyway because of the wheat in them. Most likely I would try the reeses peanut butter cups white.

If you dont have a problem w/peanut butter, give one a try :) I love those things! (A little too much, ask my weight lol!!!!)
I know regular choco has caffiene, so I would guess, but not know, that cocoa has caffiene, maybe just try some white choco chips to start, something simple and easy.

I love the white chocolate M and M's. Kraft or Werther caramels are also good. I can eat a little chocolate as long as I don't over do it.

Yes, the white chocolate M & M are really wonderful no flare. Went looking for them after I saw them on here and found them out of town. So have to buy them 2 hours away when we have to go! ..mmm maybe I have my sister look in Atlanta too.., a:wink:
Another thing wonderful thing I found was a candy shop in Silver Dollar City that makes all their own candy including cashew brittle, It is so good and really if someone found a peanut brittle recipe wouldn't be hard to make.
They have lots of other things too but don't know of another Candy shop!

Hi ya'll
Sorry to say I can't have peanut butter. Cashew butter isn't bad though. I miss dark dark chocolate. White chocolate is just not worth the risk of getting a flare for me! LOL Glad you have found stuff to snack on! I'm not trusting enough yet. A newbie! Had flares that brought me to my knees. Yikes. I eat alot of blueberries I even freeze them. I'm gonna turn violet! LOL
Keep swimming.

Hey Lamster, just remember its the cocoa and caffiene in regular chocolate that causes the irritation, and theres no cocoa in white choco. If you ever feel confident in it, maybe keep it in mind :D Take care! :D

I'm fine with regular white marshmallows too, and you get ones that are rolled in coconut which is really yummy! Oh, caramel popcorn.... peanut brittle if peanuts don't bother you... homemade or not homemade cakes/cookies.... NY cheesecake... vanilla icecream with caramel hardshell, or hot fudge.... meringue (spelling might be wrong lol) cookies... petite fours... english trifle... custard... sometimes eclairs
