Wendy's New "atkin's Friendly" Food


Niteyx13

Hi all...I have seen an ad for some new stuff Wendy's is making for Atkin's diet. They actually look pretty good. But, I went on their web site and could find nothing about the new stuff. Does anyone happen to know if they are safe? I am probably asking this pre-maturely since it is so new that it is not on their site, but I thought I would see if anyone here had heard anything yet. Thanks!

Considering that other fast food places that have come out with Atkin things, that weren't gluten free, I'd highly doubt Wendy's would be. And I'd think the chance of contamination would be pretty good too, since they don't need to keep the products gluten free, if they happen to be.

Would really be nice though.

I don't know about the Adkin's foods. But Wendy's does list gluten free items on their website. I usually have the taco salad with out sour cream or salsa.

There was nothing about their new food period, not just whether it was gluten-free or not. Which I think it kinda weird, it is not very hard to add to a web site...at least I don't think it is.

Are they currently selling it? If not, maybe they'll get it up when they are selling it.

Though, I figure the people handling the atkin's friendly foods, will also be handling the other foods, like buns, so cross contanimation would be a good chance.

Best to call them up to find out, and if they happen to be gluten-free, find out at the location you want to get the food at, what they do when preparing it. Better safe than sorry!

      That "gut ache" after drinking may be more than alcohol not agreeing with a gut that's trying to heal. Alcohol prevents absorption of vitamins, and actually breaks thiamine Vitamin B 1 so it cannot function.  Thiamine deficiency can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi, with symptoms of digestive upsets and abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, anorexia, and can cause neurological problems and problems with thinking and judgement.  I've experienced Gastrointestinal Beriberi myself.  Thiamine supplementation is a must, along with the other B vitamins and Vitamin C.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi and Wernicke's Encephalopathy Triggered by One Session of Heavy Drinking https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31543793/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6739701/

      Yeah I think my body is definitely telling me to lay off the alcohol I just don’t seem to agree with it right now but that might be because my gut is still trying to heal.

      We are a couple with celiac trying to find a concierge doctor in Palm Beach Gardens/West Palm/ Jupiter area that has knowledge of celiac .  Help!

      Thank you so much for your validation. I completely agree with you that the crackers COULD be the culprit even with very small trace amounts (less than 20ppm) and accumulating over time - I am at the point where I am about to request that my son gets retested to make sure that my "control subject" is still testing perfectly lol. I have a meeting with my celiac disease doc tomorrow and will run the crackers by him to see if he is willing to retest in a few weeks. I have not had any of them for the past 3 weeks so far, so fingers crossed, we can retest and hopefully find out if it is them. And no - I have been scouring EVERYTHING to make sure nothing else has changed. Only use gluten-free lip products and toothpaste so not there either (but very good suggestion). Thank you for validating me. I feel like many are just saying "you are not being gluten-free enough - but I do have a perfect 16 year track record that proves otherwise - so has to be something sneaky.

      OMG thank you so much for validating me in my "craziness" of being on the hunt for the culprit in my case. "Unfortunately" I do not eat any of the foods you mention, but have stopped eating the crackers that are labeled certified gluten-free to see if they might be the problem. I did NOT know about chicken being injected with gluten liquid - that is horrible!  Hoping my doc will agree to retest after I have been off the crackers for a while. My biggest mystery is - why do I not have ANY symptoms of being cross contaminated or glutened? There is no damage (thank godness) to my villi, and normally I will get canker sores the moment something is even the slightest bit cross contaminated... the hunt continues and I will follow up once I find the answer. Glad you found yours!
