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.

      Welcome to the forum, @Kara S! Warrior bread is a grain free bread product. Google it. There are commercial mixes available, I believe, Youtube videos and many recipes.

      @Colleen H, I have had similar reactions and symptoms like yours.  I started following the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet developed by a doctor with Celiac Disease herself, Dr. Sarah Ballantyne.  Her book, The Paleo Approach, is very helpful in understanding what's going on in the body.   Not only do you have antibodies attacking the body, there are mast cells spreading histamine which causes inflammation.  Foods also contain histamine or act as histamine releasers.  Our bodies have difficulty clearing histamine if there's too much.  Following the low histamine AIP diet allows your body time to clear the excess histamine we're making as part of the autoimmune response, without adding in extra histamine from foods.  High histamine foods include eggs, processed foods and some citrus fruits.  The AIP diet allows meat and vegetables.  No processed meats like sausage, luncheon meats, ham, chicken nuggets, etc. No night shades (potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant).  No dairy.  No grains.  No rice.  No eggs.  No gluten-free processed foods like gluten free breads and cookies.  No nuts.  No expensive processed gluten-free foods.  Meat and vegetables.  Some fruit. Some fruit, like applesauce, contains high levels of fructose which can cause digestive upsets.  Fructose gets fermented by yeasts in the gastrointestinal tract.  This fermentation can cause gas, bloating and abdominal pain.   The AIP diet changes your microbiome.  Change what you eat and that changes which bacteria live in your gut.  By cutting out carbohydrates from grains and starchy veggies like potatoes, SIBO bacteria get starved out.  Fermenting yeasts get starved out, too.  Healthy bacteria repopulate the gut.   Thiamine Vitamin B 1 helps regulate gut bacteria.  Low thiamine can lead to SIBO and yeast infestation.  Mast cells release histamine more easily when they are low in Thiamine.  Anxiety, depression, and irritability are early symptoms of thiamine insufficiency.  A form of thiamine called Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.   Thiamine works with the seven other B vitamins.  They all need each other to function properly.   Other vitamins and minerals are needed, too.  Vitamin D helps calm and regulate the immune system. Thiamine is needed to turn Vitamin D into an active form.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make life sustaining enzymes.  Taking a B Complex and additional Benfotiamine is beneficial.  The B vitamins are water soluble, easily lost if we're not absorbing nutrients properly as with Celiac Disease.  Since blood tests for B vitamins are notoriously inaccurate, taking a B Complex, Benfotiamine, and magnesium Threonate, and looking for health improvements is a better way to see if you're insufficient.   I do hope you will give the low histamine AIP diet a try.  It really works.

      Hello, my family is very new to Celiac Disease so forgive me for asking what Warrior Bread is and is there a recipe for it online?

      Just wanted to add that checking B12 and Vitamin D only is not going to give an accurate picture of vitamin deficiencies.   B12 Cobalamine needs the seven other B vitamins to work properly.   You can have vitamin deficiency symptoms before the B12 blood level changes to show deficiency.  You can have "normal" B12, but have deficiencies in other B vitamins like Thiamine and Niacin, for which there are no accurate tests. Take a B Complex supplement with all the B vitamins.  Take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which has been shown to promote intestinal healing.  Thiamine Mononitrate found in most vitamin supplements is not easy for the body to utilize.  What makes thiamine mononitrate not break down on the shelf also makes it hard for the body to absorb and utilize.  Thiamine and Niacin B 3 deficiency symptoms include anxiety, depression and irritability.  The brain uses more Thiamine than other organs.  Take the B Complex and Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and look for health improvements in the following weeks.
