I do fine with Amy's.

Lister Rising Star

alright cool may be able to get away with that pizza for dinner _ Finally i get to use my pizza cooker _parents got me it for chirstmas and then this happend lol. I dont want to walk to the store because even though its june its pooring down worse then it did in december and i dont feel like getten wet

the amys just worried me since they have that thing on the back saying the product is cooked in the same place as wheat

Mango04 Enthusiast

There's always a risk of CC whenever you buy a packaged product, but I do trust Amy's. I believe they take precautions when it comes to CC. If you do react, take into consideration that it could be from the dairy (if you are just now reintroducing it) or the soy.

Lister Rising Star

true that, meh i dont feel like risking eating that much dairy yet i dont think so now that the frys are in the oven its down to winco for steaks

I am extremely sensitive, and have yet to have had a reaction to Amy's....I eat their "mexican" stuff about 1x a week for the past year or so.

Guest BERNESES

I unfortunately am one of the lucky reacters :( However, there plenty of people who do really well with Amy's and I've actually dealt with the company- they take gluten-free VERY seriously.

I'm very sensitive, I eat lots of Amy's, and I've never had a reaction.

I doctor up the pizza with my own stuff, all kinds of veggies and more cheese. I had one plain the other day and now understand why some people don't like them! They definately need the doctoring! But, that would be the case for me and any plain pizza.

I am one of the ones who reacts to them, BUT, I do have several other food intolerances that could be to blame for that. I can't say for sure that gluten was the issue. I reacted to both the enchiladas and the Santa Fe enchilada bowl. I haven't had any products of Amy's since. I do have issues with soy, onions, garlic, peppers and lactose, though, all of which are in the entrees. I should give the Rice Mac & Cheese a try again and see if I have an issue with that. If I take a Lactaid and eat that and have an issue, then I will know it is gluten.

Give it a try since you have the items. Just keep track of whether or not you have any symptoms. Hopefully you will be fine. :)

CarlaB Enthusiast

It's probably not the gluten as I eat all those things and do not react. I love the mac and cheese!

I really loved the mac & cheese, too, and have been too nervous to try it since my last incident (Santa Fe Bowl). Now that I have been gluten-free longer, though, and I am feeling better overall, I may give it a try again. I have to get some stuff tomorrow....maybe I'll pick it up for dinner. :)

I ate the mac &cheese 3 times a day for 3 weeks when I couldn't chew, and i never once got sick so i know that the mac and cheese does not have very high CC cause i alwwawwys get sick from the tiniest amount of gluten.

It was actually the beszt thijng cause it lasted longer than other things that are liquid i had mac &cheese and the cedar lane 5 layer dip cause they had a lot of calories, i would have the cedarlane dip whole thing in 1 sitting and not be full, for reference that ahs like 20 sevings in it...

I hate when that happens--it never tastes as good when you have to finish it on the stove. The guy's name is Urine?

Yea, I've eaten them for the same reason! I also use chips to dip in the dip, so that adds even more calories.

And, I'd really like to see that many people try to share that little bowl of dip! I think the whole bowl has something like 600 calories.

Guest BERNESES

Amy's is in the process of building a dedicated facility for their gluten-free stuff!

Lister- Jimmy Urine looks cool but I miss gyrating Stewie- I LOVE family Guy!

Yeah i for sure could not chew chips until about 5 months ago. Still no feeling in my face!~! :huh:

Lisa--Piss poor! So funny! (just kidding, Lister ;) )

Bev--I miss Stewie, too :D

Lister Rising Star

stewie will be back lol, yeah his full name is Litttle Jimmy Urine, but is birth name is Jim Urine- wow i do feel sorry for him to have that last name. Mindlesselfindulgance.com has samples and yes its probably not going to be any of your choice in music i have a very uniqe taste.

as for my steak- it tasted like crap but thats what i get for buying meat from winco there was green spots on the bottom of the steak o well food is food for now. But thx for the replys about amys im going to have my mexican bowl for lunch tomorrow

Guest BERNESES

I just listened to "What Do They Know?" They sound kind of cool- I bet the showsa are WILD!

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      How do I contact someone at celiac.com concerning the cessation of my weekly e-newsletter? I had been receiving it regularly for years. When I tried to sign-up on the website, my email was not accepted. I tried again with a new email address and that was rejected as well. Thank you in advance!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
