yesterday for lunch I had a Amy's gluen free mexican casserole. It only has corn torillas (which I'm fine with corn), black beans, and some spices and cheese. It says gluten free on the box but not certified gluten free.

 

I had stomach pain a couple hours after eating it and I only ate a few bites because I didn't really like it.

 

well this morning I have the big "D" and woke up with a migraine. what the heck?

If I'm not mistaken, quite a few folks here on the forum have had trouble with Amy's products. The health food store I go to sells Amy's pizza, and it is quite a bit cheaper than the Against the Grain pizza that they sell, but I always buy the Against the Grain because I won't take the chance with Amy's. (And besides, the Against the Grain is pretty darned tasty.+

"when in doubt, throw it out."

 

Could be any reason why you feel bad, but for now, this product is not for you.

Ugh.  Amy's zapped me bad on an Indian entrée labeled gluten-free.  Won't ever be tempted to buy hat brand again.  Others on the forum haven't had a problem with Amy's.

 

If you like Mexican and convenience, Frontera brand sauces in the packets are the bomb and I've never had a problem with them.  It is only slightly more work, but much tastier, and better than being sick for a week IMHO.  (But remember to check ingredients in case they change their recipes.)

Wow! I'm so glad I'm not the only one who has issues with Amy's... Their meals are tasty unfortunately, so I second-guessed myself a few times before I admitted to myself it was glutenings. Wish they'd do their gluten free meals in a gluten free facility.

Take it from an old pro.  Amy's zapped me too.  Pre gluten free I could eat it.  Once I went gluten free I ate one of Amy's and the next day the room was spinning for six hours.  I'll never touch it again.  That brand has too many CC issues.

Wow! Lesson learned! Good thing I didn't eat the whole thing I'd be way sicker

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      A friend of mine is in the bar trade most of his life and has never heard of lines being mixed for different type of beers and ciders. Better to stick with cans.

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.
