I made some risotto last night and added some of their gluten-free onion soup to it and had the typical symptoms- insomnia, soaking night sweats and nausea. Has anyone had cross-contamination problems with them before? I feel yucky!

I have never had issue with their soup before. However, if I remember correctly (sorry if I am off) you are very sensitive? I am sensitive but I can have some products that you cannot, like nut thins (that is if my memory is right and that is very shaky these days). Is there a cya statement about wheat in their facility?

PS-Sorry you are sick, feel better soon!

HEZ!!!!! Hey there- yes, Ii am very sensitive. Here's their statement:As part of our overall quality program, we have a food safety procedure designed to prevent the cross contamination between products that contain gluten that are run in the same production line as gluten free products. We include the following in our protocol.

1. Before any product can be run in the plant, all ingredients need to be identified for gluten or allergens.

2. Suppliers are required to submit gluten free statements.

3. All ingredients are kept in their own allotted space and well marked in the warehouse. Ingredients containing gluten are kept separately from gluten-free ingredients.

4. All equipment shall be thoroughly cleaned prior to running gluten free product.

5. All Plant employees are trained for control and prevention of allergen and gluten contamination when they are first hired and annually.

Sounds pretty good, but you never know. :(

Nut thins and Amy's has a decent protocol as well and you still got glutened. Could it be anything else or was the only thing? Hopefully, you are feeling better and will have a good night's rest.

I haven't had a problem with them - but I did almost buy an item that I thought was gluten-free from them but was not.

Sorry you aren't feeling well. I have had problems with Amy's in the past - to the point that I just stopped eating any of her products all together - but with cross contamination in even small amounts I tend to get sick.

No probs with Pacific's Soups, though.

Hmmmm.............

Yeah- I had ginger frozen yogurt from a small company which I contacted and they have the same protocol for cleaning the equipment as Amy's (which unfortunately still made me sick!) so I think I have my answer.

FYI....Amy's rice crust pizza and gluten-free mac and cheese are now made in a dedicated facility!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But I still can't eat 'em because I can't tolerate soy :P But I do cheat on the legume thing occasionally. Had an Amy's pizza awhile back and voila...NO REACTION! I was so happy!

Hi Bev :D

Sorry you got sick--the only Pacific soup I use is the Free Range/Organic Chicken Broth. I use it often, and have not had any problems.

I am very sensitive and I use Pacific soups all the time and I have never had a problem. I don't ususally eat things that are produced on the same lines as gluten so I'm pretty sure I would have researched them and found them to be safe. I know you posted the guidelines for dealing with cc.

Hope you feel better.

Thanks. I do feel better- I am 99% sure it was the yogurt. Small companies are harder because they tend to have fewer production lines. :(

      Nausea

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight. My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet. I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now. He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs. It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc. It's literally neurological inflammation. Not to be taken lightly here. We...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-F...

      Nausea

      Hi all I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also]. BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering...

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you
