Gluten Free Nuggest

So, I went shopping for a few things at Whole Foods last night and as I was scanning the pre-made fish and chickens I spotted Gluten free chicken nuggets!!! I was so excited, I called everyone I know. Granted they are dinosaur shapes and made for kids, (I am 27) and I haven't tried them yet, but I left the store with a big smile on my face. :D They said "Gluten Free" really big on the package. I also checked the ingredients and they look good to me. So, that is what I am having for dinner tonight. Will let you guys know how they are tomorrow!!!

Who makes them? I was just at whole foods on Tuesday and couldn't find any chicken nuggets at all :(

That would be WellshireKids -- ours come in a plastic ziploc-top "bag" so maybe you are looking for the wrong kind of package? My son thinks they are too spicy, but otherwise they are wonderful :)

My husband (who's not celiac) likes them even more than I do! :-)

I can't get them to order them at my local Whole Foods, but I've tried...

Wellshire Farms is not currently taking internet orders either! So I have pretty much given up on finding them right now. I figure when I go on vacation maybe I'll find them...Glad to know that at least some people have been able to find them and that they like them.

God bless,

Mariann

So, I looked and you guys are right, they are made by Wellshire Farms. Honestly, I tried them last night and did not think they tasted good at all. They weren't crunchy (I made them in the oven as directed) and they didn't really taste like chicken. So, needless to say, I was a little disappointed after getting so excited about finding them. If anyone has any other suggestions on how to cook them please let me know!

The crunchiness issue is pretty common - even with non-gluten-free stuff. There are a couple things to do:

1. Let them thaw a bit before they go in the oven.

2. Turn the oven on higher than the directions.

3. Bake them a bit longer than they call for - test by color (just avoid burnt).

But I can see the taste not being everyone's thing. I hear rice flour is good for making your own from scratch.

      Anyone had endoscopy with a cold/cough???

      By awright24 · Posted

      I have my endoscopy on Thursday, has anyone had the procedure done with a cough? I don't have a continuous cough, but every now and then throughout the day I have sort of coughing episodes. They are a lot better than they were but I called endoscopy and they said to speak to my gp and my gp got back to me and said I need to ask endoscopy if its ok if I have it done still.  Help!

      Not Sure What to Think

      By MMH13 · Posted

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!

      Sore muscles

      By Eldene · Posted

      I walk fast for fitness, 4 to 6 km per day. I am also 74 years old. Apart from the Celiac challenge, my lifestyle is healthy. I had a sciatiac nerve pinching under my one foot, with inflamation in my whole shin. It was almost cured, when the other shin started paining and burning. I do stretches, use a natural cooling gel and rest my feet. Can Celiac cause muscle pains/inflamation, or is it just over-excercising?

      Trader Joe's grocery prodcuts

      By LovintheGFlife · Posted

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?

      Gluten challenge

      By Beverley Ann Johnson · Posted

      HI, my doctor suggested one week of consuming gluten before blood tests.  I have been gluten free for 3 years.  Has anyone been through this and will I get exact results after one week of consuming gluten?  I don't even know if I can do this, if I get sick I am not sure if I can continue, any suggestions??  Thanks in advance.
