"clear Value" Product Line At Winn-Dixie...gluten-free?

I've been buying Clear Value sausage and there is no phone number on their food packaging so I can't call them. This mysterious company also has no website. What gives? Every time I eat the sausage, I feel fatigued and foggy brained. I'd like confirmation that their foods are cross contaminated... I emailed Winn-Dixie, which is the store that carries this line, and am waiting for a response. Anyone else get sick eating Clear Value sausage?

 

And why no phone number / website on this company???

After I made this post I got to thinking again, because I was irritated about the whole thing. I did finally manage to dig up a phone number. Clear Value is owned by TopCo foods, so I found their number and called to talk to them. They said that allergen exposure may vary from batch to batch, and that I needed 3 codes to even ask about the particular product in question: bar code number, expiration date, and lot number. And they don't have an allergen list for their foods at all. I told the lady on the phone that I was throwing my hands up in surrender, and that I give up, and that I would be buying a different brand from now on.

 

But what brand of sausage is going to be economical and gluten-free? Probably nothing...

Jennie-O products have been fine for me.  Their website is clear on their gluten status.  I like their sweet Italian turkey sausage and their breakfast sausages.  For me, their hot Italian sausage is WAY too spicy, but that's just my personal taste. Their website is  Open Original Shared Link  Take a look, see what you think.

      Since medical insurance is not affected directly by celiac disease on an ongoing basis (i.e. medication, medical devices, daily monitoring, home care nursing, etc), I rather doubt anyone would be denied a policy for having it as a pre-existing condition. I’ve certainly never been and I have two pre-existing conditions that are managed with diet alone and both are long-well-known by my doctors and via medical testing and procedures. Insurance is all about risk management, not health.

      I got beaten so bad playing dominoes that made me realize that I was probably eating something with gluten, the culprit (Simms premium cracked pepper STEAKSTRIP). Now I can look back and see all other symptoms: irregular stools, bad sleep, desire to eat uncontrollably, bad mood, etc. Gluten really does a job on my short-term memory.

      I can confirm this. I no longer have any issues with Iodine since being strictly gluten and dairy free.

      I should point out that iodine is known to exasperate dermatitis herpetiformis blistering. It can take several months or even years of a strict gluten-free diet for the IgA-TG3 deposits to clear from the skin. After the skin completely heals, iodine may no longer trigger symptoms. "The circulating antibodies disappear and skin symptoms resolve as a result of gluten-free diet but the cutaneous anti-TG3 IgA deposits may persist for several years.
