I would eat it. Sounds good, and looks ok to me.

If by prepared foods section you mean a deli, then not in a million years.

The ingredients are probably fine, but I would worry about cross-contamination from being in the deli case.

I asked Whole Foods about their prepared items because I love stopping there to get a quick lunch. They told me that if there are any allergens in their food, it will be listed. Even the salad bars have prepared salads and the ingredients list is right in front of you.

If it was pre-packaged, I would not worry about cc. If the deli person had to scoop it, I would be concerned.

Whole Foods is pretty good about cross-contamination issues. I would feel as comfortable getting the Tuna Salad there (as long as it has its own labels) as I would eating out a restaurant (ok).

On a side note, I do get chicken salad from my Von's deli here in Las Vegas, but I get it early in the morning (8:30 a.m.) right after they make it (and before the deli has any customers -- that way I am first and the most safe)

I ate the most wonderful chicken salad from Whole Foods deli. I had no adverse reactions to it. I feel just as comfortable there as I would at a restaurant. Actually I feel a bit safer there, they at least know all about cross contamination.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.
