Amy's Products

I've seen lots of Amy's products in the stores, but none of them say gluten free on the boxes. And I'm not sure about all the ingredients. Quite a few of the mac and cheese boxes have a rabbit on the front of the box. Are these ones gluten free? Does anyone out there use the Amy's prducts much? I'm really interested in the mac and cheese ones if they are safe.

Why can't companies put gluten-free on them and make it simpler?

The Amy's Mac and Cheese that is safe says it right on the box...same with all that brands products that are gluten free.

Amy's does have a non gluten free version as well so just look for the gluten free on the box.

Is their gluten free pasta made from rice? The one I read didn't have wheat in it, but it wasn't rice either. And I haven't found any with gluten free on it. I wonder if that is just down in the U.S. and not in Canada.

Hi Viola - the one with the bunny is Annie's, not Amy's. Annie's does have one gluten free mac and cheese so far - they just released it a few months back. It clearly says on the front that it is gluten free - it's a rice pasta, though not quite as nice as Tinkyada. You have to prepare it just like Kraft Mac and Cheese.

Here's a picture of the Amy's mac and cheese (frozen) that is gluten free, rice pasta:

Oops ... thank you for straightening me out Stephanie! :huh: You are right of course, I got the two names mixed up. It is Annie's that I've seen. :lol: So, I should be looking in the freezer section for Amy's .. I will certainly do that next time I go into town. :rolleyes:

I TOTALLY get them confused when I'm writing about them (not when I see them, though). So I understand. I love the frozen Amy's mac and cheese - it's the only TV dinner I can eat...

unfortunately we don't have the Amy's frozen rice mac and cheese in Canada...as far as I know at least. I'm pretty sure it says on their website what products are available in Canada.

Oh poop ... Not in Canada :( That's a bummer. I will have to check out their web site this evening. Have to open my phone lines now though, so gotta get off the computer.

Here I was hoping for that nice mac and cheese.

I love Amy's frozen food so much that every once and awhile I go to Bellingham, Washington to do a gluten free shop there. I have looked at so many stores around here but I guess the gluten free Amy's that I like just isn't available in Canada yet.

Shirley, the Save-On Foods near my place just started stocking Amy's gluten-free frozen pizzas. So, maybe they will be bringing in more of their product line soon.

Oh, that sounds very promising. I just printed off their "contact" page so I can take it into our 'Save on Foods' when we go into town next. Sounds like it might just happen :P That would be wonderful.

We all like amy's. Her Asian stir fry is the best. Two packages along with extra broccoli and other veggies makes a meal for an entire family.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
