Hi,

Has anyone tried the whole cooked rotisserie chicken (plain) from Whole Foods? I've tried it a few times and am not sure about it...but am wondering how anybody else has reacted.

Thanks

We don't have Whole Foods here where I live, but I have discovered that Rotisserie Chickens are something you MUST read labels on.

I was buying COSTCO's chickens that are Gluten Free and I never had a problem with. So my husband must have thought all Rotisserie chickens were ok because he brought home one which I assumed was from COSTCO, but it was from Shoppers Food Warehouse and I ate it and had a reaction. Same story from Giant Food Supermarkets...... I read the label on those and low and behold! They have gluten in them.

(In the glaze used to roast them).

So lesson is: SOME are OK and MANY are NOT! COSTCO is the only gluten-free one I've found. You just have to read the label or go to COSTCO (and STILL read the label!).

Hi Gabby,

I see you are from Toronto, so you would be familar with teh Loblaws Corporation grocers... I know that their chickens are NOT gluten-free. I know that isn't what you posted, but incase Whole Foods falls through, they are not an alternative. But Swiss Chalet are, and you could buy a whole chicken to go!

      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!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.

      It's most likely going to be a celiac disease diagnosis based on your blood test results, but wait for your doctor to give you a green light for going gluten-free, as they may want to do additional testing. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
