Hi There,

I just found out that Ian's Natural Foods have Wheat Free, Gluten Free (WF, gluten-free) chicken nuggets, fish sticks, turkey corn dogs, french fries & sweet pot. fries. Are any of them good? They are pretty pricy so I thought I would ask before I spent the money. Any opinions would be appreciated!

Thanks!!

Kacie

I like the fish sticks quite a lot, but I find the other products are less good. Others seem to like them though.

I eat the chicken nuggets all the time - they're great! The fish sticks are also good, but I wasn't too crazy about the turkey corn dogs.

My 5 year old practically lives on the chicken nuggets. She and my 18 month old just love them!! My little one likes the fish sticks too, however... neither of his sibs will eat them.

I just purchased the turkey corndogs today and have not yet tried them. (Wellshire Kids makes gluten-free chicken corndogs on a stick that are realllllllllly good!)

I like their fish sticks. I wasn't terribly impressed with the chicken nuggets. I haven't tried the corn dogs (can't find anywhere that carries them around here).

They are good about sending out coupons if you call them. It might be worth it to call and get a coupon and try them at a reduced price :)

I saw the chicken nuggets the other day for the first time, and refused to buy them. $6 for 224g. That's half a pound. SIX DOLLARS! :o Forget it. <_<

I know the chicken nuggets are expensive, but they are so good! I eat them all the time.

I have tried the chicken nuggets and the fish sticks. While the taste was okay I found the coating to be much to crunchy, read like eating a rock. My celiac teeth can't take it and I threw the rest of both boxes away.

how did you prepare them I don't find them too crunchy at all. I usually just toss them in the microwave. I think the chick nuggets are good. Sometimes I cut them up and make a patty with them and eat them like a burger with sauteed onions. I usually get them for like 4-5 $ a box

I bake them. I never use my microwave for anything other than defrosting and boiling water, I have never cared for the change in the texture of food cooked in one. I could see how they would be less crunchy if zapped though.

I thought the chicken nuggets were ok until I found Bell & Evans chicken tenders and nuggets which are wonderful. The Ian's ones remind me of McDonald's nuggets and the Bell & Evan's ones are real white meat and not just a bunch of coating. Sometimes you get a bite that seems like all coating and no chicken.

I would think the Ian's ones are very kid friendly, but that adults may like the Bell & Evan's better.

Bell and Evans look good but they have egg which I cant have thats the problem with most gluten free food is aalot if it has ingredients I cant have the ians for me are one of the only premade foods I can get. Maybe one day I will be able to eat bell and evans though

      Potential celiac need advice

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶
