Perdue gluten-free Breaded Chicken Breast Tenders - Possible Cc?

Does anyone eat this product regularly? Recently?

Open Original Shared Link

I've been cc'd somewhere & I'm trying to nail it down as to what product it was. We have a gluten-free household since my hubs is celiac also. We never eat out. We recently added this product to what we eat. At the same time, we added Udi's bread and Wild Riceworks Sea Salt & Black Sesame rice snack gluten free

I suspect the Perdue over the others because I feel if it were the Udi's bread others would have been reporting glutenings by now. As for the Wild Riceworks; I haven't eaten that in a while. Last week we had the Perdue twice & I'm having a reaction to something.

 

I have the dh rash so it's not just GI issues that are telling me I've been glutened. BUT I also learned a few months ago that I am one of those 8% who has a real reaction to even certified gluten-free oats so the possibility of cc from those oats has to be considered.

i had no issues with the perdue tenders (just the leap of faith lolz <they sat in my freezer for a month before i got enough nerve to try them) and i was pleasantly surprised at how yummy they were.  and easy, and i don't have to cook all of them at once, so good for when hubs is out of town and it's just (lazy) me :)  i hope you didn't have a reaction to them!  i was just putting them on the list of things that i can eat when i'm away from home without fooling with.....   :/  feel better, squirmy !

Thanks Arlene. Well, next time you have them I can tell you a nifty thing to do with them. It's sort of a twist on Chicken Cordon Bleu. Cook the tenders, then wrap them in deli ham & then wrap in swiss cheese, put back in the oven or toaster oven & bake a few minutes until everything's hot & cheese is melted.

that does sound yumz ! :)  i've been venturing into 'packaged food world' very cautiously (as i'm eating my snack pack pudding!  i know, i know, i can make chocolate pudding from scratch....... <_<   i just wanted a little bit, though, not enough to make a whole recipe of it)  like you, i am TRYING to avoid the soy, so i was happy that the chicken didn't contain much - listed as 'less than 2%' soybean oil.  i'm pretty mad about french fries - what about JUST POTATOES !  and tater tots almost always have soy....  i tried the gluten-free freshetta pizza, didn't sit well, chucked the rest.  (no gluten reaction, my guts are just picky, picky) i have a california pizza kitchen frozen pizza in the freezer and i'm going to try that next.  our local kroger has expanded it's 'freak' food section (and moved everything around so i can't find a thing!) as they are preparing to sell WINE, so i will always have a plan B for dinner.  or should i say, plan W hahaha   :P  ;)

We do the snack packs of pudding too. These days we don't eat enough of it to make it ourselves. Used to be we would make a package & wipe the whole thing out in 1 sitting but not anymore.

Does your store carry Against The Grain frozen pizza? No soy oil -- no soy at all. We LOVE it! Oh, wine? What's that? i'll have to try that sometime.  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

I have tried the Perdue chicken tenders and while I can't say that I eat them regularly, they don't seem to affect me.

 

I don't eat Udi's (don't like the taste of some of the products and I think that I react to some of the other ingredients in their product line).

 

I looked up the Rice Works chips and while the ingredients seem to be gluten free, other people on this forum seem to have had reactions to these chips. Could the company have changed the recipe since you last ate them?

I called Udi's this morning. They of course have products containing cert. gluten-free oats such as cookies, granola bars etc... Because oats are not one of the top 8 allergens they do not clean the lines between runs of oat containing products and those not containing oats. So the lady I spoke to told me there is the possibility of cross contamination with cert. gluten-free oats.

 

Perdue says they have to get back to me after they get information from their research department. They did say they test every run & gluten-free products are made as the first runs of every day then the gluten products are made. 3rd shift cleans everything including air filters. She did not know the testing method they use nor if they have any products containing oats.

I'm sorry, I didn't see your post earlier when I posted. I don't think it's the Riceworks mainly because I had not eaten them in a couple weeks.

 

I am realizing now that it's more a problem with the oats reaction ie: oat cc. So I'm going to be on a learning journey again on how to protect myself only this time there are not the same rules as dealing with plain gluten as in celiac gluten. It's almost like the tables have been turned on me. Anything made in a completely gluten free facility is more suspect now than regular foods that are gluten-free such as Lay's original potato chips. I'm trying to wrap my head around this. Brain fog is interfering.

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      By cristiana · Posted

      It's strange because I'm pretty sure not too long ago I picked up a loaf of bread with B vitamins, but I can't find a single one now.  Probably cutbacks, everyone's trying to save money now!

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      Eating grains typically depletes certain B vitamins, so I'm not sure why they decided to fortify with calcium and iron, but hopefully we'll see more B vitamin fortification in gluten-free products going forward.

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      @HAUS, I was at an event in the UK a few years back. I remember ringing the restaurant ahead to inquire about the gluten free options. All I wanted was a few gluten free sandwiches, which they provided and they were delicious. The gluten-free bread they used was Warbutons white bread and I remember mentioning it on this site before. No harm in trying it once. It's fortified with Calcium and Iron. https://www.warburtonsglutenfree.com/warbs_products/white-loaf/ The only other gluten-free bread that I've come across that is fortified is Schar with Iodized salt, nothing else.

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin.  In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began developing serious vitamin-deficiency diseases: Beriberi → caused by a lack of thiamin (vitamin B1) Pellagra → caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) Anemia → linked to low iron and lack of folate By the 1930s–40s, these problems were common in the U.S., especially in poorer regions. Public-health officials responded by requiring wheat flour and the breads made from it to be “enriched” with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Folic acid was added later (1998) to prevent neural-tube birth defects. Why gluten-free bread isn’t required to be enriched? The U.S. enrichment standards were written specifically for wheat flour. Gluten-free breads use rice, tapioca, corn, sorghum, etc.—so they fall outside that rule—but they probably should be for the same reason wheat products are.
