Kraft South Beach Diet Frozen Dinner Maybe gluten-free?


Guhlia

Okay, I was just looking through ALL the recipes of Kraft foods and I think I may have actually found a frozen mainstream dinner that might be safe. Someone please help me out. I have no other allergies or sensitivities and (I know this sounds crazy) I'm dying to eat a real, live, normal TV dinner. I don't know why, I just am.

This is for a South Beach Diet frozen Savory Beef with Cheesy Broccoli:

Ingredients: FULLY COOKED SEASONED GRILLED BEEF SIRLOIN STEAK STRIPS AND MODIFIED FOOD STARCH PRODUCT, SMOKE FLAVOR ADDED (BEEF, WATER AND LESS THAN 2% CONCENTRATED BEEF STOCK, MODIFIED FOOD STARCH, SALT, SODIUM PHOSPHATES, POTASSIUM CHLORIDE, FLAVOR, AUTOLYZED YEAST EXTRACT, BEEF FAT, BEEF EXTRACT, GRILL FLAVOR [FROM SUNFLOWER OIL], SUCCINIC ACID, MALTODEXTRIN, SMOKE FLAVOR, CORN SYRUP SOLIDS, DEXTROSE, SPICE EXTRACTIVES), BROCCOLI, WATER, CELERY, ROASTED ONIONS, CARROTS, MUSHROOMS, PASTEURIZED PROCESS CHEESE SPREAD (CHEDDAR AND COLBY CHEESE [PASTEURIZED MILK, CHEESE CULTURE, SALT, ENZYMES], WATER, WHEY, SODIUM PHOSPHATE, WHEY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE, SKIM MILK, MILKFAT, SALT, CARRAGEENAN, CELLULOSE GUM), CONTAINS LESS THAN 2% OF MODIFIED FOOD STARCH, NONFAT DRY MILK, WHEY, CHEDDAR CHEESE (PASTEURIZED MILK, CHEESE CULTURE, SALT, ENZYMES), SALT, TOMATO PASTE, HYDROLYZED SOY PROTEIN AND CORN GLUTEN, ROASTED BEEF INCLUDING BEEF JUICES, ENZYME MODIFIED CHEESE (CHEDDAR CHEESE [MILK, CHEESE CULTURE, SALT, ENZYMES], CHEESE CULTURE, ENZYMES, SODIUM PHOSPHATE), BUTTERMILK SOLIDS, ENZYME MODIFIED BUTTER, BUTTER, GUAR GUM, CARAMEL COLOR, DRIED ONIONS, DRIED GARLIC, SODIUM PHOSPHATES, SUGAR, CORN OIL, POTATO FLOUR, MALTODEXTRIN, AUTOLYZED YEAST EXTRACT, ENZYME MODIFIED BUTTEROIL, SPICE, BEEF FLAVOR, DRIED CARROTS, FLAVOR, BEEF EXTRACT, DRIED CELERY, DEHYDRATED BUTTER, LACTIC ACID, DEXTROSE, COCONUT OIL, ANNATTO (COLOR), BEEF STOCK, TURMERIC (COLOR).

I know there are about a million red flags in there, but doesn't Kraft pledge to openly list gluten as an ingredient. In several other recipes there were some questionable items and they all had parentheses with (derived from/may contain gluten). Is corn gluten safe? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would LOVE to be able to do convenient lunches again.

Thanks in advance.

Other than having 30000000000000 ingredients, many unpronounceable, and the risk of cc, looks ok!

Be careful though, it is probably cross contaminated. Though I've never (knock on wood) been glutened by a Kraft product.

Kraft will clearly disclose gluten sources, and there are none in this case. Cross-contamination is always a risk, but experience has shown it to be extremely low. Kraft are very careful. I trust them without reservation. Enjoy.

I trust them, too. Kraft is one of the few mainstream companies that I have not had any problems with.

I ate the caprese chicken (something like that) with no problem. It tasted ok, it needed salt and I really don't salt things.

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!

      good luck! vital wheat gluten made me violently ill. I will touch the stuff ever again.  
    • catnapt
      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding.   I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th   I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose   they are going to have to come up with a test that doesn't require it.

      What Thiamine Hydrochloride brand do you take? Is it like the other vitamins I have added? What brand Tryptophan and amount do you take. Thanks
