Anyone eat them without issue? I can't really find anything recent on them.

Never been a problem with me, but always check the ingedient listing.  Hanover, is generally cheaper and they are a "full listing" company.  Of course "beans" can consist of may different ingredients as in chilli beans or flavored beans.

Okay awesome - all the stuff I found on them said they were gluten-free but it was like 3 - 5 years old. Just out of curiosity which ones have you had?

You need to turn the can around and read the lables.   Recipes change all the time and they only way to survive a gluten free diet, is to learn to read lables.  Look for wheat, barley or rye on the  ingredient listing,or allergen warning.  Products with simple ingredients are easy to figure out.

 

Just beans in a can and just beans.....we love garbonzo beans

Use these all the time. If i remember right, as long as you get the blue labelled cans they are suppose to be gluten free. That includes the low sodium versions.

I would think that Goya canned beans would be made with Goya dried beans. I can tell you that the Goya dried beans packages say that they may contain wheat and soybean.

Why would they dry the beans... and then rehydrate them? That just seems silly and pointless. It is far more cost effective to just can them while they are still fresh instead of drying them, then re-hydrating them which would be a complete and total waste of money.

The dried beans and canned beans are on separate lines. Possibly even separate facilities I can't remember for sure.

I am guessing instead of FWIW she meant to say, so far.

I sometimes make mistakes in speaking and when questioned have said "Listen to what I mean and not what I say." :)

Thanks. K. I thought everyone knew what FWIW means. Sorry if you didn't, Lisa..

It means the same as "just a suggestion from my experience" for what value that may hold to the reader.

No, I didn't actually. I said "they are no problem for me--in the 2.5 years I have used them...so, never." ..FWIW--which means ".and if that helps you make a decision about the beans, okay,but  if not, that's  okay too".  :)

Dried beans are generally harvested dry.  They dry on the plant.  At the end of the season when they are harvested, they are dry.

I was unaware of this since I have no experience growing dried beans. I thought they were the same as lentils, limas, or peas which I do have experience growing and see dried. Those you pick fresh and plump. (As well as some other types of beans I have experience with that I haven't seen dried.)

 

It is still, and always has been, my opinion that when in doubt about a product, call or email the company. They are a far better source of information than a forum.

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result. I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned? Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous...

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease...

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especia...

      nothing has changed

      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can t...

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.

      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can take 12–24 months (sometimes longer) for antibodies and the intestinal lining to fully heal, particularly in teens and young adults. Eating gluten again to “test” things isn’t recommended and won’t give you clear answers—it’s far more likely to cause harm than clarity. Weight not changing is also very common in celiac and doesn’t rule anything out. Please know that your frustration and sadness matter; this adjustment is hard, and feeling stuck can really affect mental health. You deserve support, and if you can, reaching out to a GI dietitian or mental health professional familiar with chronic illness could really help you through this phase. This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet. I suspect that if you looked closely at the diets of those who did not recover within 2 years might be that their diets were not 100% gluten-free. Perhaps they ate out more often, or didn't understand all of the hidden ingredients where gluten can hide. Either way, it shows how difficult recovery from celiac disease can be for most people.
