Wellshire Kids Chicken Bites


Nantzie

Recommended Posts

I was wondering where everyone is finding the Wellshire Kids Chicken Bites. My Whole Foods doesn't carry them for some reason. Other than that we have a couple small health food stores in the area, but they don't have them either.

I just thought I'd check and see if this is something that can be found in a regular grocery store before I start bugging my Whole Foods to carry them.

Thanks!

I've gotten them at Whole Foods (in WA or CA) or Wild Oats (in CA).

I've bought them at the Whole Foods in Atlanta, GA.

I went onto their website www.wellshirefarms.com. You can order 10 bags for $36.00 or 20 bags for about $60.00. It was well worth buying in bulk to avoid having to search around for them.

I've seen them at my Whole Foods but never tried them.

See if your Whole Foods has the Bell & Evans gluten free chicken nuggets or tenders. They are incredible!!!

I got the Wellshire ones at my regular grocery store. They have a rather large gluten free section.

If a local health food store does not have them in stock you can put in an order for them

Thanks guys. At my Whole Foods, they said they only carry the Ians. I did go to the wellshire website, but to ship it frozen to CA, I'd have to go overnight shipping, which is over $60!! Plus, we don't have room in the freezer for 10 pkgs of chicken nuggets at one time. If I knew that my kids liked them, I'd be more likely to consider buying in bulk once we get a new freezer, but we haven't even tried them yet.

I'm going to order from glutenfreemall I think. That way I can try other things too, like the praeger's fish sticks and some of the other brands of chicken nuggets. Looks like $33 for shipping is a pretty good deal. Then depending on what I like, I'll ask my small local health food store to order a couple of things. They're much better about carrying a good variety of gluten-free things, and even carry some Kinnikinnick stuff. I know they wouldn't mind ordering some new things.

I just didn't want to spend all that money on shipping and then find out that everyone was buying them at Albertson's or something. :lol:

Hi

I get ours at whole foods too. But we like the new Bell&Evans ones now . We get those in a regular grocery that sells Bell&Evans products. When I contacted their website they said that all stores that carry their reg. line would also carry the gluten-free nuggets too. So hopefully you have a store that carries the line.

I bought a freezer just for gluten-free stuff.....

Cheri A posted a wonderful recipe to make your own , I don't alway have time to do that so I buy frozen also.

And I agree with you don't buy cases until you know if your family will like them. I now have many things I buy in bulk but we sampled first. This food is just to pricey to waste it and thru trial & error I had some stuff the dog turned his nose up to.

      If this applies geographically, in the U.K., physicians will often declare a diagnosis of celiac disease based on the TTG-IGA antibody blood test alone if the score is 10x normal or greater, which your score is. There is very little chance the endoscopy/biopsy will contradict the antibody blood test.

      TTG IgA reference range 0.0 to 14.9 KU/L

      What was the reference range for that test? Each lab uses different reference ranges so a raw score like that makes it difficult to comment on. But it looks like a rather large number.

      I have had the tTG-IgA blood test my result are >250.0  I am waiting for the appointment with the gastroenterologist for endoscopy and biopsies.    what are the chances it’s not coeliacs.  waiting and not knowing is so hard. Especially the eating of gluten knowing it may be causing you more harm and coping with the symptoms.

      @sleuth, Has your son been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  All of those symptoms can be caused by malnutrition.  I had severe malnutrition that went unrecognized by my doctors.  Intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, and gastrointestinal distress are symptoms of deficiencies in the eight essential B vitamins, especially Thiamine B1, which becomes low first because the demand is higher when we're sick.     Celiac Disease causes inflammation and damage of the intestinal lining which inhibits absorption of essential nutrients.  Checking for nutritional deficiencies is part of proper follow up care for people with celiac disease.   Is your son taking any vitamin supplements?  Most supplements contain thiamine mononitrate which in not readily absorbed and utilized by the body.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that is shown to promote intestinal healing.  Benfotiamine is available over the counter.  Benfotiamine is safe and nontoxic.   Is your son eating processed gluten-free foods?  Gluten-free processed foods are not required to be enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.   Is your son following a low histamine diet?  Histamine is released as part of the immune response to gluten and other foods high in histamine.  High levels of histamine in the brain can cause anxiety, insomnia, and depression.  The body needs the B vitamins to make the enzyme Diamine Oxidase (DAO) to break down and clear histamine.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Vitamin C helps clear histamine as well.  Some people find over the counter antihistamines helpful as well, but they're not for long term use.   Nicotine has antihistamine-like properties, but can also irritate the gut.  Tobacco, from which nicotine is derived, is a nightshade (like tomatoes, potatoes, peppers and eggplant).  Nightshades contain alkaloids which affect gastrointestinal permeability, causing leaky gut syndrome.  Nicotine can cause gastrointestinal irritation and alter for the worse the microbiome. Safer alternatives to Nicotine that have antihistamine properties include Lemon Balm (Sweet Melissa),  Passion Flower, Chamomile, and Bilberry.  They can be taken as supplements, extracts, or tea.  These will help with the anxiety, insomnia and depression in a much safer way. Oolong tea is also helpful.  Oolong tea contains the amino acid L-Theanine which helps the digestive tract heal.  (L -Theanine supplements are available over the counter, if not a tea drinker.)  Tryptophan, a form of Niacin B3, also helps calm digestive symptoms.  Another amino acid, L-Lysine, can help with anxiety and depression.  I've used these for years without problems.   What ways to cope have you tried in the past?
