Thai Kitchen Noodle Carts

I bought a few of these because they were on sale and I love the noodle soup bowls they make. The first one I ate I got that wierd hunger pain thing, but thought maybe it just wasn't enough food. I ate another one yesterday and had some popcorn as well ( which I eat constantly). I was driving later in the day, when the sharp hunger growl pains came back ( they're like hunger pains but really violent and sharp) and I got the feeling that I was going to throw up, Nausea, sweating, that heavy throat feeling. I pulled over, and got out my car and spit up about a gallon of bile into a trash can. Not throw up, just bile. I felt better, but was still mildly queasy for the rest of the night. Not going to eat any more of these, but was wondering if anyone else has had a reaction to them?

If it helps, I do know that the Hot and Sour Thai Kitchen is not gluten free.

Did you eat that one? It looks exactly like the other soup bowls, but that flavor is hazardous to a Celiac's health! :)

No, this was the noodle cart, its not soup, its just rice noodles with seasoning. You heat the noodles in hot water, then dump the water out and mix in the spices. The Pad Thai one and the Garlic one are labeled Gluten free.

I eat the Pad Thai one with no problems. Do you have any other intolerances?

E,

Sorry about that -- I don't have a clue...

I tried the noodles once, but I did not care for the taste. Now I just use them whenever I make stir fry (not using their sauce/seasonings -- Blech!)

Hope you feel better!

Possibly, but I haven't been tested for anything else. It must be something in the seasoning packet, because I eat rice noodles all the time with no adverse effects. This was a very specific reaction that I've never really had before either. I'm going to investigate the ingredients further.

Elonwy

Adding-- I just re-read the ingredients. Theres nothing in there that I don't eat on a regular basis in all kinds of other foods. This is wierd. I've been limiting my nightshades, not eliminating completly, just eating in moderation, but theres none of that there.

There's some funky stuff in that seasoning packet. I never feel good when I eat those. I'm also soy intolerant/allergic, but I think it's more a matter of some sort of weird hydrolized something or other that just doesn't agree with many people.

I have been eating those for years and now that I am gluten-free at least once a week and have not had any problems with them. Sorry! I hope you feel better fast!

Well, I just bought a big package of those at BJs, but haven't tried them yet. I hope they don't make me sick since I bought so many, but I will let you know!

BTW, what are nightshades? I'm still new to this....

I got sick from those too. Just like you said, I got the really hungry feeling first and then the "D".

This sounds like the same issue I have with bouillon (sp?). I finally threw all the little cubes and jars out as they made me feel ill and gave me D, although it's an entirely different feeling than being glutened. I, too, couldn't find anything in the ingredients that I thought I should be wary of. As someone else mentioned, maybe something hydrolized causes the problem.

After throwing out the little boullion cubes I went to using organic broth made by Imagine (comes in boxes) or Whole Foods 365 brand and have had no issues with either. I like the organic stuff -- I can pronounce all the words on the label :)

Nightshades are a family of plants including peppers, tomatoes, potatoes and eggplant. It seems like it's another pretty common allergen on this board.

I think that I have reactions to hydrolyzed stuff as well as to maltodextrin. I try not to eat products with either of these things in them.

I eat both the bowls and the noodle carts probably 3 times a week, and never have had a negative reaction. They've really been a godsend...they are one of the cheaper prepared gluten-free items on the market. I can't remember if they have the "prepared in a facility which processes wheat, etc." warning on them or not. Do you think it could be cross-contamination, since we know that the hot and sour definitely has wheat in it?

That's been one of my main ways to stay alive this summer here at college since I can't eat too much at the Student Center (which has a Subway, McDonald's, Taco Bell, Tuscan Kitchen, Starbucks, and Freshens Ice Cream...and it's not really an option for me to live off salads and ice cream).

I haven't had any problems from it (at least I don't think I have). Maybe the reaction could be to a particular spice or something unrelated to the disease. Beats me. Or some celiacs are more sensitive than others?

I don't have any other food allergies/intolerances however when I had those a while ago I felt really sick immediately after eating it. I think they are just way too spicy for me.

I have had issues in the past a few times--I think it is a mix of the heavy flavorings, additives, sodium etc. for me.

Is there msg in it? Could that be a problem for you.

      This article does not address migraines at all. Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably.

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Body dysmorphia experience

With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Body dysmorphia experience

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
