I just received an e-mail back from Bell & Evans. They will have gluten-free chicken nuggets on store shelves at the end of June 06. Now my problem is Whole Foods doesn't seem to carry Bell & Evans fresh anymore so I did see a few frozen things so I hope they are not phasing them out just when they come out with gluten-free!!!!!

Hopefully Giant Eagle will carry them...

Hi, Mamaw!

The McIntyre Square Giant Eagle (on McKnight Road across from Border's) currently carries Bell & Evans chicken--I haven't seen chicken nuggets, but I imagine that they'll carry them! Their Bell & Evans fresh chicken is way in back, on one end of their fresh meat counter. Are the chicken nuggets going to be fresh or frozen?

BTW, chicken nuggets are very easy to make from scratch (even gluten-free). I just use chicken tenders (Festival Foods carries Amish preservative-and-hormone-free chicken for half the price of Giant Eagle's), dip them in cornstarch, beaten egg, and roll them in crushed Fritos. I fry them in peanut oil (3 minutes per side), but you could bake them, too.

I hope it happens. I heard about this awhile back and have called Bell & Evans a couple times. Originally they told me they would be in stores April 24th. Then when I called last week they said they should be in stores any day... still waiting. I really want to try these.

I believe the nuggets will be frozen . I just don't alway have time to prepare food so I like to have something around for a quick meal . I have a really great recipe for nuggets or strips but I can't save any for the freezer for a quick meal as everyone including the non- gluten family eats them up as soon as they hit the plate...I did three pounds and gone in a matter of a minute...

Fiddle-Faddle I will have to check out the Giant Eagle at McIntyre Square. I guess I haven't been going down there much lately since Cranberry is closer I may check that one out.

Someone else mentioned about Ian's , that maybe they changed their recipe. I hope so as none of us cared for there nuggets.....S'Better Farms are fairly good to.

      I think I am gluten intolerant

      By ElenaM · Posted

      Hello everyone. I am Elena and am 38 years old. I suspect I have a gluten intolerance even if my celiac panel is ok. I have the following symptoms : facial flushing, Red dots not bumps în face, bloating abdominal distension, hair loss, depression anxiety even with meds and even bipolar. Fatigue extreme to the point of not being able to work. All of these after I eat gluten. Could I have non celiac gluten sensitivity? Thanks anyone else with these symptoms?

      Oral thrush question

      By JulieRe · Posted

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      Oral thrush question

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      Advice while waiting for testing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:
