Any Reactions To Tinkyada"s Brand Of Rice Pastas?

I seem to be having adverse reactions to the Tinkyada brand of gluten-free rice pastas lately, which hadn't been a problem in the past for me. Has anyone else been having problems? I am wondering if they've changed something with the manufacturing process or the ingredients being used or what???

I've never had a problem with the Tinkyada--could it possibly be the sauce, or something else you're eating along with it?

I've never had a reaction to the pasta's, they are a dedicated facility and are really good about that. BUT I have had reactions to the sauces with the pasta. I kept reacting to Classico's pasta sauces (all of them are gluten free but contain soy) so I switched to Amy's pasta sauces and am not having any problems.

No, I make my own "sauces" from scratch, using canola oil and various vegetables and/or cream.... It just seems like everytime I eat that brand of pasta, I am reacting to it now, or so it seems. I've only noticed this to to happen in the past 2 months.

I can my own pasta sauce and the last couple of months or so I've gotten sick when I've eaten it. I've also noticed that chips and salsa make me sick. I assumed it was a cross contamination issue with the chips but I'm starting to think tomatos are the problem intsead. I've eaten the Tinkyada and tortilla chips without the tomatos last week and did fine.

I'm hoping that my gut is still healing and maybe I can add tomatos back at some point. :)

Try eating the pasta plain...all by itself and see if you get the same reaction.

Yeah, that's my thought as well.

I know that more and more tomatoes are genetically modified these days. I just read a report from 2001 that a GM tomato was designed that could be used to deliver vaccines and antibodies! Yikes!! What are these people thinking? Here's the link: Open Original Shared Link

I once thought I had a reaction to Tinkyada's pastas. I had been glutened earlier in the week, and then had some homemade mac and cheese with tinkyada, made by my mom. Had serious troubles for the rest of the day, but didn't match my normal Celiac symptoms. Realized around this time that it was the high amounts of dairy/casein after being glutened that bothered me---not the tinkyada. Thank goodness!

Are you getting any gluten at all? I've noticed that if I've been glutened, I get sick off "safe" foods just because my body hates me at that point and can't digest properly.

Hope that you find out whatever the problem is!!!!

Absolutely not, I wouldn't know what to do if I reacted to them. Sorry :) , but that product is a staple in our diet. Maybe, try not eating them for a few weeks and reintroduce and see what reaction you have.

I've replaced the pasta with a different brand, Grandma M-something (I'll have to get the full name later - it's a company in Wisconsin operated by a woman who has celiac and is extremely food sensitive, or so I have heard. She has the best corn chips I have ever tasted, by the way) for a little while with the usual pasta toppings, and I didn't have any more of those reactions... So I don't know - I think it's the Tinkyada pasta, unless I am getting hyper sensitive now. But thanks for getting back to me.

I have never had a problem with tinkyada but I hear that BiAglut has changed their recipe. It's still wf/gluten-free. I actually liked BiAglut the best then tinkyada next...

night shade veggies give alot of people trouble but NAET can take care of that.......

It's odd how some foods effect us in different ways. I know my family loves the gluten-free brownie from Outback, but I ate two bites from one and was the sickest I have been since going wf/gluten-free.....

.. go figure.....

Grandma Ferndon...she makes GOOD stuff. I love her Peanut Butter cookies, taste like the "real" thing, only it is pricey.

And I sometimes have issues with tomatoes, tomatos have a lot of acid in them.

That gluten-free brownie at Outback has NO Flour in it. It is a flourless brownie - you can find recipes on the internet for these. Some of these recipes rely heavily on nuts. These can give many people the Big D problem.

ok, I'll chime in as the oddball here.... :) we started gluten-free life with tinkyada pastas, thought they were great yadda yadda, but eventually I came to avoid them and all pasta with added rice BRAN. It seems harder to digest that way. So I've been getting Rizopia brand rice pasta which is just rice. I like it better too.

I've never had a problem with Tinkyada's before. I eat it all the time with Prego traditional sauce.

I am very sensitive and I don't have problems with Tinkyada pasta. Maybe you could try contacting the company to see if there are any possible cross contamination issues in the factory.

I haven't had a problem either. any chance it's the pan or colander you're using? Don't you hate this? You feel like an insane detective looking for a needle in a haystack. I hope you find out what it is and that it's NOT the Tinkyada. Best, B

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
