Nyc Longshot (And Late) - Fairways Catered Turkey (Pre-Seasoned) - Anyone Know If It's gluten-free?

Just found out this is what my family ordered and is cooking today -- I haven't been able to reach anyone at Fairways (not surprising) and can't find anything on their websites.

 

Thought I'd send it out to my cloud friends and see if anyone knows - it's the UWS Fairways, if it matters.

It looks like it's just salt, pepper, rosemary and thyme, but I can't be certain.

 

Thanks -

For all the people are paranoid about turkeys, there are plenty of vets who have never been able to find a turkey that has gluten in it. It sounds safe, and if the prep has been done safely and it isn't being stuffed I would eat it. For what that's worth.

Thanks - I couldn't get any answer on the prep, so while I trusted the turkey, I didn't know what might have been done to prepare it. Ended up eating Udi's (or was it Rudi's) gluten-free stuffing, some broccoli I made myself and an Artisan Bistro frozen turkey meal!  it was fine.  One thing I've learned through the last 9 months since my dx is it's not really about the food, it's about the company.

 

But next year I'll get some answers a bit more in advance :-)

 

Thanks though, Adelaide!

      A question - eggs & dairy

      First of all, being able to return to foods that you have developed a sensitivity to in connection with celiac disease is not a given. You may or may not be able to do this with time. But the ability to do so seems to be connected with the healing of the villous lining of the small bowel which often takes 2-3 years in adults after attaining to consistently...

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      Welcome to the forum, @Waterdance! Constipation and diarrhea are classic celiac symptoms and hemorrhoids is usually the outworking of either or both of those two problems. But I'm curious about your statement, "I probably don't fit the diagnostic criteria for a diagnosis of Celiac Disease." Perhaps your understanding of what that encompasses is...

      A question - eggs & dairy

      Hello everyone. For those of you that I’ve had a sensitivity develop to eggs and dairy (one or both) I am wondering for those who were able to go back to eating these things how did you discover that it was all right? I have a sensitivity to both, but I really miss eggs and I really miss dairy but I’m afraid to try them again so I’m wondering what other...

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      Hi and thanks for this place to ask questions. I have been diagnosed with a gluten and milk allergy but so far I have no Celiac diagnosis and honestly I probably don't fit the diagnostic criteria for a diagnosis of Celiac Disease. I've come here because I'm having problems and you all would be knowledgeable about gluten free diets. An allergist...

But the ability to do so seems to be connected with the healing of the villous lining of the small bowel which often takes 2-3 years in adults after attaining to consistently truly gluten free diet. But you will just have to test the waters. Experimentation with those foods is the only way. Realize also there are thresholds of tolerance. You may be able to consume those foods without issue but not as often and in lesser amounts than in your pre celiac days. So, start small and go slow.

      Welcome to the forum, @Waterdance! Constipation and diarrhea are classic celiac symptoms and hemorrhoids is usually the outworking of either or both of those two problems. But I'm curious about your statement, "I probably don't fit the diagnostic criteria for a diagnosis of Celiac Disease." Perhaps your understanding of what that encompasses is outdated and deficient, as is also true of many physicians. Actually, now there are over 200 symptoms and medical conditions that have come to be associated with celiac disease and the list keeps growing.  And you use the term "gluten intolerance". What does that mean to you? Actually, gluten intolerance is a catch all term referring to two different gluten disorders: celiac disease and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). Celiac Disease is an autoimmune disorder characterized by ingested gluten triggering the immune system to attack the lining of the small bowel. NCGA or just, gluten sensitivity, for short, is a reaction to gluten that is not autoimmune in nature (neither is it an allergic reaction per se) but it's symptoms overlap with that of celiac disease. We actually don't know a lot about NCGS yet but some experts believe it can be a precursor to celiac disease and it is 10x more common that celiac disease.  There are some blood antibody tests that are pretty specific to celiac disease but they require that you have been eating normal amounts of gluten for weeks/months prior the blood draw. Having the blood draw done while being gluten free or even having been on a reduced gluten diet will invalidate the testing. There was a recent article posted in this forum about testing being developed that did not require breaking a gluten fast but it is not available yet. When and if it is, that will be a giant breakthrough because so many people experiment with the gluten free diet before they ever get tested and can't safely utilize the "gluten challenge" because their reactions are too severe. So, they can't distinguish whether they have NCGS or celiac disease and must live with the ambiquity.  There are also some people who react negatively to all cereal grains. You may be one of them. Technically speaking, gluten is found only in wheat, barley rye, and some cultivars of oats. But all cereal grains contain proteins that more or less are similar to gluten and, apparently, similar enough to cause a gluten-like reaction in some people.  Have you experimented with non-cereal alternative grains like buck wheat or sorghum? Can you substitute potatoes for grains to get calories? Have you looked into SIBO (Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth)/histamine intolerance? This could also explain the problems you are having. You are not going to want to hear this because you will feel like you are starving but the Auto Immune Protocol Diet will probably make you feel a lot better.

      Hi and thanks for this place to ask questions. I have been diagnosed with a gluten and milk allergy but so far I have no Celiac diagnosis and honestly I probably don't fit the diagnostic criteria for a diagnosis of Celiac Disease. I've come here because I'm having problems and you all would be knowledgeable about gluten free diets.   An allergist diagnosed me with a gluten and milk allergy about 15 years ago but she said "if you eat a lot of it, don't worry about it." This haunted me because I did not eat a lot of it but it was in my diet. Going 100% gluten free was daunting so I struggled with lowering my intake and observing results when adding it back. Due to aging, I think, the problem is worse now. I know ingesting gluten almost immediately causes a hemorrhoid flare up. It's very painful and I have severe chronic issues with it and even one surgery which did not solve much and the problem came back with vengeance. I know from my own experiments that I can build a tolerance to gluten in my diet but overall if I want to avoid chronic pain and discomfort I should just eliminate it entirely.   When it comes to my diet, I found not only gluten to be problematic but all grains! This is terrifying to me. Keeping a grain free diet was difficult and left me hungry all the time.   My question for you all is do you have any tips to help me live on a grain free diet sustainably long term? And Do any of you know of or heard of hemorrhoids, constipation and diarrhea being main symptoms to gluten intolerance?
