Albertson's Rocks

I was in the Albertsons near me today, in the health/diet food aisle, and I found Tinkyada pasta. I was so excited. I went and found a Manager and held up the bag and said thank you so much for carrying this, you don't know what it means to me. He was very pleased and said that they had just redone the aisle yesterday, and this was a new product for them. I nearly hugged the guy. They also had Namaste stuff and some aramanth crackers. As soon as they start carrying Mrs. Leepers I may not have to go to Whole Foods again!

I live in Los Angeles, and the Albertsons is on Palms and Sepulveda, for those in the area.

I emailed Albertsons a month ago telling them thank you for carrying gluten free stuff, I hope to see more etc, etc. Not saying I changed the world, but it sure is happening.

That's great. I hope the Acme near me (which is owned by Albertson's) follows their lead.

It took me three months, but I got my Albertson's to carry those items as well. It began about a month ago...maybe they're all going to eventually get the items in. If your albertson's isn't carrying these items yet, you can use this info to encourage them to do so.

FYI - my Sateway in AZ carries Amy's frozen foods which are really, really good! They are starting to carry a few things so maybe it will catch on with all the grocery stores. Whole Foods is a great place but they are a bit pricey. I need to check out my Albertson's. Thanks for the heads up!

Yeah for Albertsons!

My neighborhood grocery store is Raleys and they have Food for Life, Amys, Mi-Del, Pamela's, Ener-G, Glutino and lots more...I feel very fortunate.

I actually work for Safeway and they have NOTHING for me at my store. They are way behind the rest when it comes to gluten-free foods. :angry:

Elonwy - Thanks so much for the info!! I work in West LA. I know exactly where that store is. I'll also check at my neighborhood Albertson's to see what they have. I was just in Whole Foods, and the cashier was so rude that I vowed never to go back. I don't know if I'll be able to stick to that, but at least I can start getting some stuff at Albertson's. Thanks for sharing.

The Safeway up here in WA and the QFC have a smattering (and odd selection, but it's there) of gluten-free items as well, including the pasta and some Amy's stuff.

BTW, the Namaste stuff... My husband actually thought the pancake mix was "pretty good"! That's high praise from the Bisquick fan with the super aware tastebuds! :-)

Just wanted to add this. I went to Albertson's yesterday and I had to ask where gluten free foods were. They do not have their special foods separate from everything else. I had to look with all the regular food. I found the cereal but didn't feel like spending 5 hours in the grocery store last night. :D I will look at more items next time I go there. I do have to say that Sprouts, Whole Foods, and stores such as those are much easier to shop at! You just walk down the isle and read the labels. The Sprouts by me puts big green stickers on the shelf where gluten-free foods are. That is so nice because I just walk and look at the stickers.

This is what I love about Raley's. The gluten-free stuff is all together in one area and I dont have to go all over the store....just one aisle. :D

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      Yeah, that sounds super familiar. When inflammation levels are high — especially at the start of changing your diet — the body often develops a fructose and lactose intolerance. Unfortunately, the only thing that really helps is cutting out anything that isn’t lactose-free or that contains sugar. So basically, stick to meat, veggies, fish…

      Nausea

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight. My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet. I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now. He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs. It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc. It's literally neurological inflammation. Not to be taken lightly here. We...

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-Free.
