Panera New Englad Clam Chowder from grocery store

Recommended Posts

Here are the ingredients:

light cream, clam broth from concentrate, potatoes, clam meat, onions, contains 2% or less of:. corn starch, butter (cream, salt) sea salt, garlic, fish stock (pollock, salt) onion powder, nisi preparation and spice.  Contains milk and shellfish.  May contain crustacean shellfish.

I bought from grocery store because I didn't see any gluten on label.  I had for lunch yesterday and by night fall was covered in hives.  What did I miss?  I looked at the Panera website and on their website wheat flour is listed as an ingredient.

It could be cross contamination at the plant. It also could have been something else you ate fairly recently as sometimes reactions can be delayed.  I hope you're feeling better soon.

New England Clam Chowder (Water, Whipping Cream [Milk], Potatoes [Russet Potatoes, Calcium Chloride], Sea Clam Juice [Sea Clam Juice, Salt], Clams [Sea Clams, Water, Salt], Onions, Salted Butter, Clam Base [Cooked Clams In Clam Broth, Salt, Yeast Extract, Potato Flour, Butter, Clam Extract, Sugar, Onion Powder, Cod Powder, Garlic Powder], Wheat Flour, Corn Starch, Seasoning [Sugar, Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, Corn Starch, Black Pepper, White Pepper, Canola Oil]).

This is from the panera website....I think the grocery store typed out the label in their label machine and missed a few ingredients to make it look better. I would go back to the store and ask to talk to a manager about it. Inquire as to why the ingredient list is different from the websites, how it is made, like do they get sent a dry mix or liquid mix from HQ or do they make it all fresh on the spot. Talk to them about the gluten issue you had with it.

On a side note NEVER buy a soup or something from a grocery store, restaurant, or soup kitchen if they are not 100% gluten free. It is very common to use wheat flour as a thickening agent, and even if not used in the soup you bought it was probably used in a soup that used that same pot and utensils....can you imagine them cooking a bunch of pots of soup some with wheat ingredients in them in a huge kitchen the chef going from pot to pot. Perhaps using the same ladle to give each a stir or get a bit out to sample.....CC is a huge issue.

The issue here is that it could be ANYTHING and there is no way to really determine exactly what hit you.     What I would suggest that as a Newbie, try to avoid processed foods even if they do not contain any gluten ingredients.  Celiacs usually have additional complications.  We often have or can develop other intolerances or allergies. 

When you are well (symptoms dissipate), then feel free to experiment.  I hope you feel better soon!

I called paneraathome and they told me the food made for retail sale is made  in a different location and the labels are accurate.  She assured me the clam chowder was gluten free.

Nisin is a polycyclic antibacterial peptide produced by the bacterium Lactococcus lactis that is used as a food preservative. ... In the food industry, nisin is obtained from the culturing of L. lactis on natural substrates, such as milk or dextrose, and it is not chemically synthesized.

Errors are made during ANY manufacturing process.  Take a look at this mis-labeled product now being recalled because it contains wheat:

Open Original Shared Link

DO NOT panic!  Fortunately this type of occurrence is RARE.  Odds are that your soup does not contain gluten.  But as I stated earlier, celiacs can have or develop food intolerances or even allergies to preservatives, additives.....ANYTHING.  Read about Zonulin and leaky gut.  Reasearchers know so little about the GI system.  

Your best bet is to avoid processed foods until you feel better.  At least choose minimally processed foods.

Gee, I add Nisin to my homemade soups just like my Grandmother -- NOT!  ?

      Patiently Waiting to See Results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You've done an excellent job of meticulously tracking the rash's unpredictable behavior, from its symmetrical spread and stubborn scabbing to the potential triggers you've identified, like the asthma medication and dietary changes. It's particularly telling that the rash seems to flare with wheat consumption, even though your initial blood test was negative—as you've noted, being off wheat before a test can sometimes lead to a false negative, and your description of the other symptoms—joint pain, brain fog, stomach issues—is very compelling. The symmetry of the rash is a crucial detail that often points toward an internal cause, such as an autoimmune response or a systemic reaction, rather than just an external irritant like a plant or mites. I hope your doctor tomorrow takes the time to listen carefully to all of this evidence you've gathered and works with you to find some real answers and effective relief. Don't be discouraged if the rash fluctuates; your detailed history is the most valuable tool you have for getting an accurate diagnosis.

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In this case the beer is excellent, but for those who are super sensitive it is likely better to go the full gluten-free beer route. Lakefront Brewery (another sponsor!) has good gluten-free beer made without any gluten ingredients.

      Welcome to the forum, @catsrlife! Celiac disease can be diagnosed without committing to a full-blown "gluten challenge" if you get a skin biopsy done during an active outbreak of dermatitis herpetiformis, assuming that is what is causing the rash. There is no other known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis so it is definitive for celiac disease. You would need to find a dermatologist who is familiar with doing the biopsy correctly, however. The samples need to be taken next to the pustules, not on them . . . a mistake many dermatologists make when biopsying for dermatitis herpetiformis.

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By trents · Posted

      You state in an earlier post that you don't have celiac disease. Here in this post you state you will "be doing another test". What will this test be looking for? What kind of celiac disease testing have you had done? If you have used a Entero Labs it sounds like you have had stool testing done for celiac disease which is not widely accepted as a valid celiac disease diagnostic testing method. Have you had blood antibody testing for celiac disease done and do you realize that for antibody testing to be valid you must have been eating generous amounts of gluten for a period of weeks/months?

      No, I've not been diagnosed as celiac.  Despite Entero Labs being relocated to Switzerland/Greece, I'll be doing another test. After eating wheat products in Greece for 4 weeks, there wasn't any reaction.  However, avoiding it here in the states.   Thanks everyone for your responses.
