Do You Trust Amy's?

I'm living in a place now where there are Amy's meals available and I really want to eat them! I have eaten the microwavable meals before with no problems, but I think I've reacted to the canned chili and beans. I know that a lot of people have been contaminated and I don't to get sick before I start my new job.

I haven't tried the chili, but eat all the other stuff with no problem. Sometimes beans get me gassy and give me a belly ache, so maybe it was just a natural, normal reaction to the beans rather than a gluten problem.

I eat Amy's for breakfast every morning, love it and have no problems with the frozen entrees.

The tofu scrambler has gotten me 2x. But my daughter and I eat the mac and cheese, pizza, shepards pie and hot tamale pie with no problems.

Becky, could you be sensitive to soy?

Have had no problems with Amy's frozen food as long as it's the gluten-free stuff - Amy's make products with gluten.

I have never tried the canned chili though. The Mac and Cheese and Cheese Enchilidas are great!

No problems with Amy's for me. I Love their stuff, but just eat it as a treat for myself when I am too busy to cook or craving something special :)

Thanks everyone! I think I may try them again and hope that I don't get sick. Does anyone know why Amy's took the gluten free label off of the gluten free dinners?

I got sick from the mexican bowl and the mac & cheese, so I won't eat those again. I do eat the mexican frozen meals with no problem. When I contacted them about cc several months ago they said they were moving many of the gluten-free meals to a new gluten-free plant. It is the pizza, the mac & cheese (I think), a new one that is pasta with tomato sauce and maybe something else. The woman said they would be in stores in June. I asked if the warning label that says if things are produced in a plant with allergens would be removed and she said they haven't decided.

I may email them and see if those products are on shelves and if there is a way to identify them.

I still find ones with gluten-free labels. I know there were debating about the allergens in the plant label. I guess many people were upset by it. I like to know, so I hope they keep it on so we can tell which meals are produced in a gluten-free plant.

Thanks. I hope they start making all their gluten-free items in the new plant!

Nope, I have eaten other soy things and even soy milk and never had a problem. Just that scrambler 2x. But I did buy them the same day so maybe a bad batch?

I have not had a problem with this brand and I definitely trust them from my experience. I am very sensitive and have not reacted.

I've had good luck with Amy's too. I don't like the soups all that much (I think they're too oniony). I do really like the Indian Vegetable Korma.

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
