Their Low Carb burger is gluten-free so long as you watch CC and topings.

I've never understood why companies always have to use flour when seasoning their fries. :angry:

Texture in the final product, particularly with something that's fried, even potatoes.

I fry my own, and never had a problem with the texture! :D

I didn't mean to imply the texture would be bad or have a problem without it, just that it gives it a different texture, that some people might want to highlight. I'm with you... why add it? (But I'm not a huge fan of fries, so I haven't the culinary expertise to weigh the various methods. Well, except oven baked sweet potato fries. Yum!)

The difference is the use of a single family versus a mass-serving restaurant chain.

I would imagine they have found that the average worker has less of a chance to screw the product up when they have a "crisp-enhancer" like flour in use.

Remember, these are 16 year old kids doing the frying -- you have to make it easy for the product to be consistent on a national level (or regional)...

I don't like it either, but I would imagine that is the answer...

I guess my reply was lost when the site crashed.

tarnalberry: I knew what you ment, i was just making a comment onthe aprrent sensless ness of them doing it.

Bron: Intresting not considered that angle, could be somthing to it.

Personaly I prefer to start with with raw fresh potateos, cut them, leave skin on, and frit at 450 for like 4 or so mins in canole oil. The come out perfect every time. :)

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      For my Vit D3 deficiency it was recommended to take with Vit K2 (MK7) with the Vit D. The Vit K2 helps absorption of Vit D3. Fat also helps with absorption. I take Micro Ingredients Vit D3 5000 IU with Vit K2 100 micrograms (as menaquinone:MK-7). Comes in soft gels with coconut oil. Gluten free but not certified gluten free. Soy free, GMO free.

      That is the goal, after all.

      Celiac Disease causes more vitamin D deficiency than the general population because of limited UV sunlight in the winter and the little available from food is not absorbed well in the damaged small intestine.

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I respectfully disagree. You cherry picked a small section from the page. I will do the same below: The agency is seeking information on adverse reactions due to “ingredients of interest” (i.e., non-wheat gluten containing grains (GCGs) which are rye and barley, and oats due to cross-contact with GCGs) and on ...

Even though celiac disease and gluten sensitivity are, technically speaking, not allergic responses, it would seem, nonetheless, appropriate to include "gluten" in that list for the present purpose. That would insure that food companies would be consistent with including this information in labeling. Best estimates are that 1% of the general population, many undiagnosed of course, have celiac disease and more than that are gluten sensitive."

A good start is 100-gram (3.5-ounce) serving of salmon,  vitamin D from 7.5 to 25 mcg (300 to 1,000 IU) but it is going to take additional vitamin D supplement to be effective.  More importantly salmon has an omega-6 to omega-3 ratio 1:10 anti-inflammatory compared to the 15:1 infammatory ratio of the typical Western diet.

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts.  I respectfully disagree.  You cherry picked a small section from the page.  I will do the same below: The agency is seeking information on adverse reactions due to “ingredients of interest” (i.e., non-wheat gluten containing grains (GCGs) which are rye and barley, and oats due to cross-contact with GCGs) and on labeling issues or concerns with identifying these “ingredients of interest” on packaged food products in the U.S. “People with celiac disease or gluten sensitives have had to tiptoe around food, and are often forced to guess about their food options,” said FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, M.D., M.P.H. “We encourage all stakeholders to share their experiences and data to help us develop policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices.” --- end quote Anyone with celiac disease is clearly a stakeholder.  The FDA is encouraging us to share our experiences along with any data to help develop future "policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices".  I see this as our chance to speak up or forever hold our peace.  Like those that do not participate in elections, they are not allowed to complain.  The way I see it, if we do not participate in this request for public comment/feedback, then we should also not complain when we get ill from something labeled gluten-free. Have a blessed day ahead, Known1
