Tuna And Syrup

It's Lent and I think I can eat Starkist and Bumble Bee tuna's? Am I right or wrong? I believe the Albertson Brand is safe also, does anyone know for sure?

Also - Log Cabin Syrup - it is on sale for a ridiculous low price, but there is no phone number of the bottle. Has anyone contacted this company and know for sure if it is gluten free?

Thanks!

I will respond to my own question, I finally found and made it in the Delphi list again.

Log Cabin syrup is gluten free, I bought if for like a buck a bottle last night. So I am very glad for the special and that it is gluten free. I was using Aunt Jemima and that is like 4 bucks a bottle and I can't always afford that price fr a little bottle of syrup.

And yes, both Star Kist tuna and Bumble Bee brand tunas are gluten free. Just don't eat the crackers in their little lunch kits!

hOPE THIS HELPS SOMEBODY! :)

Just a suggestion...when we use Log Cabin or any of the other lower priced syrups, we also have a small amount of real Maple Syrup on table too. We don't mix them half and half, but using mostly the Log Cabin and a teaspoon of the real syrup for the real maple flavor. It's cheaper than using 100% real maple syrup and you don't feel like you're eating corn syrup with 1% of maple flavoring.

I spent the entire day today trying to get answers what is in the tuna packs I eat.

INGREDIENTS: Light tuna, water, vegetable broth, salt.

** vegetable broth is SOY!

SOY for many of us is POISON -- you just don't know it yet.

If you have celiac disease and developed a thyroid problem -- I know SOY CAUSED MINE.

We as a nation are going to find out in the next few years SOY is making us sicker then we know.

I don't know the why's of it all, but Bumble Bee tuna packed in the foil pouches does not contain soy--I do eat it, but it is the only one I touch. Deb

I eat Polar tuna - all natural solid white albacore, water, salt. Pretty inexpensive too. I saw Progresso had one in olive oil but it was very pricey.

darlindeb25 --- thank you for that information about no soy. Can I ask a big favor? If you have one of those tuna packs at home can you post what they list as INGREDIENTS?

StrongerToday --- does it say what type of OIL in the tuna??? It could have soy or other types of oil???

Thanx again my dear Celiac cyberspace friends :wub:

The Polar tuna is just the tuna, water and salt - no oil or soy. The Progresso was just olive oil I beleive - I didn't buy it, the Polar was much cheaper.

I agree with the soy issue--it is in everything anymore, too. My youngest son is very allergic to soy and I am noticing more and more that I get bloated/stomach burning when I eat any soy-containing foods. IMO, it causes problems hormonally, too and may be related to so many so-called "female problems". :ph34r: Time and many sick people will probably tell the story, unfortunately.

      Recovery from gluten challenge

      While the positive endoscopy confirms the diagnosis, it's important to be skeptical of the idea that your daughter will simply "bounce back" to a pre-challenge state. The gluten challenge was essentially a controlled, prolonged exposure that likely caused significant inflammation and damage to her system; it's not surprising that recovery is slow and that...

      Brain fog

      The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium. Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend...

      Were you doing any of the new home construction yourself? Drywall compounds and adhesives used in construction have been known to cause problems for some celiacs.

      Feel like I’m starting over

      Hello @Scatterbrain and welcome to the forum I am sorry to hear you have had a return of your symptoms. My first thoughts were that stress can cause IBS-like symptoms - a friend of mine has been suffering a huge amount of stress and when that happens she gets diarrhea. But you say that you haven't got any bad abdominal issues, so perhaps you...

      Feel like I’m starting over

      Hello, I was newly diagnosed in January of this year (2025). Since then I have been strict about staying gluten free and only cooking at home. I started feeling better in July while gradually resuming close to my normal routine of activities and athletics. September and October were extremely stressful due to a new home build being finished and moving...

      Recovery from gluten challenge

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While the positive endoscopy confirms the diagnosis, it's important to be skeptical of the idea that your daughter will simply "bounce back" to a pre-challenge state. The gluten challenge was essentially a controlled, prolonged exposure that likely caused significant inflammation and damage to her system; it's not surprising that recovery is slow and that a subsequent exposure hit her so hard. The persistent fatigue is a major red flag that her body is still struggling, potentially indicating that the initial damage hasn't fully healed or that her system is now in a heightened state of reactivity. Rather than seeking anecdotal timelines from others, her experience underscores the critical need for close follow-up with her gastroenterologist to rule out other nutrient deficiencies commonly caused by celiac flare-ups, like iron or B12, and to consult with a dietitian to scrutinize her diet for any hidden sources of cross-contamination that could be perpetuating her symptoms. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

Brain fog, like other celiac disease symptoms, does improve after you to 100% gluten-free, and supplementation will also help.

      Hello, I was newly diagnosed in January of this year (2025).  Since then I have been strict about staying gluten free and only cooking at home.  I started feeling better in July while gradually resuming close to my normal routine of activities and athletics. September and October were extremely stressful due to a new home build being finished and moving.  My spouse and I take care of his mom who has advanced dementia and have been since 2021.  We did all the moving as well as get the other house on the market for the month of October.  Since earlier this month I feel like I did back in the early stages of my diagnosis.  Almost all of my symptoms have come back except for the bad abdominal issues.  I haven’t changed my diet or supplements since January and wonder if the stress has caused a set back? Any thoughts are helpful.  Thanks
