Fisher Nuts

I just got some Fisher cashews as a Christmas gift. I usually buy Planter's because I know they are safe.  

 

I went to Fisher's website and they make the "Naturally gluten-free" claim and we all know that is meaningless if they are contaminated during processing. I wrote to them but haven't gotten a response yet.

 

What's also a bit odd is that the website says "gluten-free according to the FDA law of 8/5/13", but that was BEFORE the law went into effect (by about a week). And there is no "gluten-free" on the label.

 

So I'm here to ask if anyone else eats these and if you have had problems. I can always give them away but if they're OK I'd like to eat them.

 

Thanks.

Got an answer today:

 

Thank you for contacting us.

 

Please provide the UPC # (10 digit number below the bar code) to inform you if this is a gluten free item.

 

Our facility is not gluten free, we may produce products on the same lines/share equipment as products containing gluten. We follow food safety processes and lines are cleaned between batches to prevent cross contamination. However, individuals who may be very sensitive may be affected.

 

 

Sincerely,
 

The Fisher Nuts Team

 

 

I'll be giving these away.

      Welcome to the forum, @linnylou73! Are you claiming this based on a reaction or based upon actual testing?

      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.

      Juice shots? Anti inflammatory

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I avoid turmeric now because I'm on low dose aspirin, but used to use this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HYBN4DJ My recipes always vary according to what I have on hand, but my base is a frozen berry mix from Trader Joe's: https://www.traderjoes.com/home/products/pdp/fruits-greens-smoothie-blend-075603 In the warmer months I include herbs from my garden like Italian parsley and basil. I add almond milk as well.
