This is great news! I've never had the black bean but it sure sounds good. I have their wheat-free vegan gardenburgers in my freezer right now, they have oats in them but no wheat - When I'm done with them I want to only buy ones that are truly and completely gluten-free... so this info is helpful. Thanks!

It looks like only the Black Bean Chipote is gluten-free, am I right about that?

ebrbetty Rising Star

the grilled is gluten-free too, i had it for lunch today, had a leftover corn taco shell so i nuked the burger, topped with kraft shredded cheese [lactose free :D ] broke it up, stuffed it in the taco shell with lettuce and olives..it was good, fast and low fat too

I just looked again at the product info and the Grilled has soy sauce in it, which has wheat.

"Flame Grilled Burger Ingredients

Soy Protein Concentrate-Hydrated, Canola Oil, Vegetable Gum, Wheat Gluten, Salt, Natural Flavors, Autolyzed Yeast Extract, Sesame Oil, Caramel Color, Soy Sauce (Water, Wheat, Soybeans, Salt), Dried Onion, Natural Grill Flavor (from Vegetable Oil), Dried Yeast, Ascorbic Acid. Contains: soy and wheat "

Have you ever had any CC issues from the Black Bean?

Arghh! That's awful. How can they call it gluten-free?

Or is flame-grilled different?

Yeah, that isn't gluten free. erbetty- Will you e-mail Linda and ask her to correct the information or explain what she meant?

I just looked again at mine, the flame grilled says "gluten free" in red, I looked at the ingredients, yup, its gluten-free :D

I'm wondering if they have either changed the product or if the website was wrong. I looked for the Black Bean today at Wegmans (the only BB they had was in a #@&* wheat flour wrap) but they had the Grilled kind. Although it didn't say gluten-free on the box it looked safe. I hope they aren't reformulating the grilled ones and adding the soy sauce that would be a real bummer. I have bad reactions to CC so I decided to forgo these for myself because so many of the other ones have wheat.

from what i gather they changed the ingredients..I looked at them at a different grocery store and they did not say gluten free, but the ones I have do, its marked on the side of the box in red..i think once all the stores sell out of the older boxes you will see them

I get sick really easy..had another one just on a plate today with the kraft lactose free cheese and I'm ok

animals.

But can they reassure you that none of natural flavours and spices comes from a gluten source?

Excellent point.

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

      Welcome to the forum. Is the nausea associated with eating certain foods, or anything else in particular?  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months.

      Absolutely my point with Kerrigan, the owner. She stood to secure many years of faithful patronage by simply inviting us in for a pastry or lunch. Or by simply producing another $50 e-card based on trust. We would have been highly satisfied. We are limited to a few restaurants in the area, and that would have been one. It was very disappointing, esp to my wife, to realize we can't patronize the place anymore.
    • trents
      You would think any business would see the wisdom of honoring a $50 gift certificate on the basis of customer satisfaction alone, apart from any questions about software glitches.
