Coleman meats


J.Snow

Recommended Posts

Has anyone ever used or researched Coleman meat products? I am always so careful about everything I eat. I had some Coleman polish kilbasa in the freezer that I bought at Earth Fare. Hubby made it for breakfast. I happily ate two pieces from then remembered looking at Coleman hot dogs at the store yesterday and not seeing a gluten free label. So I dug the package out of the trash and realized there was no gluten free marking on the package anywhere. While there are no gluten ingredients called out in the ingredients, there  is powdered vinegar and powdered celery. Their website doesn't seem to have any info on it. Paranoid I'm going to have a reaction ?.

Sounds gluten-free to me.

If you did not see any gluten listed, I would relax.

^Them? They say gluten-free and even make gluten-free nuggets, looks safe even by my extreme standards. >.> Thinking that sasuage from them might make a good broth, I might not be able to digest meats, but I sure as hell can make a good broth with it. 

Thanks for bringing up this company pain to find a company that does not use corn starch or syrup in meats. I found a new meat to perhaps work into cooking for others, and making broths with.

Thanks for the research and thoughts everyone! I did notice they had the gluten feee symbol on their website but when I went to the specific product it wasn't on there with the others (free of nitrates etc) and it made me nervous. They also didn't have any gluten info in their FAQ section of their website. I'm pretty strict about what I eat and buy, but apparently I didn't look at the package close enough when I bought it. Maybe the tag said gluten free at the store and I went with it. I'm just going to believe it is safe and hopefully I will be ok! I may email them for future reference. I hope that you can use this meat to make your broth! I'm not sure where they would have it in your specific area but I think I bought it at Earth Fare. Giant Eagle sells their hot dogs.

Yep I already called my local HEB to ask about having them stock the Polish Kielbasa, Ennis where I live is a Czech town. >.< yet none of the kielbasa in this town is safe for me to even use for flavoring. I am so looking forward to making a nice broth out of it, going to then use it for seasoning stir fries, making sauces, and just for soups.

      I shop a fair bit with Azure Standard. I bought Teff flour there and like it. they have a lot of items on your list but probably no soy flour, at least not by that name. https://www.azurestandard.com/shop/product/food/flour/teff/brown/teff-flour-brown-unifine-gluten-free/11211?package=FL294 As mentioned in another answer, Palouse is a high quality brand for dry beans, peas and other stuff. I buy some foods on your list from Rani. I've been happy with their products. https://ranibrand.com/ Azure and Rani often use terms that skirt around explicit "gluten free". I've contacted both of them and gained some comfort but it's always hard to be certain. FWIW, my IgA antibody levels are very low now, (after including their foods in my diet) so it appears I am being successful at avoiding gluten.

      fwiw, I add nutritional yeast to some of my recipes. since going gluten free I eat almost no processed foods but I imagine you could sprinkle yeast on top.

      @Charlie1946, There are many vitamin deficiencies associated with PCOS and Celiac disease and mental health issues.  The malabsorption of nutrients caused by Celiac can exacerbate PCOS and mental health issues. Vitamin B 3 Niacin (the kind that causes flushing) improves sebaceous hyperplasia and PCOS. (300 mg/day) Vitamin B 1 Thiamine improves dysphagia, and with Omega Threes, Sjogren's, and PCOS.     (300 mg/day) The other B vitamins are needed as well because they all work together like an orchestra.   The fat soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, are needed as well.  Low Vitamin D is common in both PCOS and Celiac and depression.   Deficiencies in Niacin Thiamine, Cobalamine B12, Folate B 9, Vitamin C, and Vitamin D can cause mental health issues.   I wish doctors would check for nutritional deficiencies and gastrointestinal issues before prescribing antidepressants.  My mental health issues didn't get better until my vitamin deficiencies were corrected and a gluten free keto/paleo diet adopted.   Though blood tests are not really accurate, you may want to get tested for deficiencies before supplementing, otherwise you'll be measuring the vitamins you've taken and blood tests will show blood levels that are too high. Yes, Thiamine TTFD and the other vitamins are available over-the-counter.  A B Complex with additional Thiamine TTFD and Niacin made a big difference to my health.  I follow a paleo diet, and make sure I get Omega Threes.  I took high dose Vitamin D to correct my deficiency there.   I've run through the mental health gamut if you would like to talk about your issues.  You can personal message us if you would be more comfortable.   Interesting Reading: Nutritional and herbal interventions for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS): a comprehensive review of dietary approaches, macronutrient impact, and herbal medicine in management https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12049039/

      Hi @Charlie1946 I am so sorry to hear you are suffering with this problem.   Just a few other thoughts.  I had debilitating anxiety prior to my diagnosis.  I was never admitted to a hospital but thankfully had a lot of support from friends and family, and found a couple of publications contained really helpful advice:  for depression, The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs by Dr Steve Llardi, and for debilitating anxiety, At Last A Life by Paul David.  Both can be ordered online, there is also a website for the latter.  If you are deficient in or have low iron or B12 this can cause or worsen mental health issues.  I am sure my own issues were caused by long-term deficiencies.   If you can get your blood tested, it would be useful.  In the case of iron, make sure you only supplement if you have a deficiency, and levels can be monitored, as too much iron can be dangerous. If you have burning mouth issues, very bad TMJ or neuralgia,  I understand the pain can be managed by the use of a certain class of medication like amitriptyline, which is also used to treat depression.  But there again, it is possible with the correct diet and supplementation these issues might improve? I do hope that you find relief soon. Cristiana

      @Charlie1946, as an alternative to milk-based protein shakes, let me suggest whey protein. Whey and casein are the two main proteins found in milk but whey doesn't cause issues like casein can for celiacs. Concerning your question about celiac safe mental health facilities, unfortunately, healthcare facilities in general do not have good reputations for being celiac safe. Most celiacs find that they need to depend on family members to advocate for them diligently or bring in food from the outside. Training of staff is inconsistent and there is the issue of turnover and also cross contamination.
