Dry Roasted Peanuts?

Lisa

Today I order a salad with cranraisins, sliced apples and unseasoned grilled chicken. I brought my own Newmans Dressing. When it arrived, it has what I thought were pine nuts (thought, ok cool). Half way through my salad the nuts tasted seasoned. I asked and yes they were dry roasted peanuts, similar to Planter's.

I have not bought them since gluten free and I have no idea what brand they were, nor was able to read the restaurants ingredience on the nuts. (I have not reaction to peanuts, but concerned about the seasoning). I am not concerned about the grilled chicken.

Ball Park question, are they generally gluten free or should I break out the Imodium soon?

Thanks Patti for the time to look this up. Don't know whether they were planters, but feel more comfortable now.

I am still a little bugged that they did not list the nuts on the salad menu. What if I had a peanut allergy. When I inquired about the nuts, the own ask if it was ok and I responded with "I'm not sure". She gave me that look like "Sorry, but not my problem". GRRRR

It would have been her problem if you were allergic to them. If they were not in the ingredients in the menu's description of the salad this place needs a refresher from the Health Dept. After all someone is supposed to go to a seminar at least once a year. It is actually required that someone to attend if you have a restaurant in NY. With peanuts being a possibly fatal allergen that was very irresponsible. I don't think I would eat there again and I would tell them why.

Hi, just new at this gluten-free thing. Just trying it out for a couple months per Drs recommendation. So, some dry roasted nuts have gluten? This is not something in the nut per se, right? More during the process they may add stuff to it that adds gluten?

Like:

Roasted Peanuts

Roasted Sunflowers (not a nut, but I like them)

Roasted Cashews

How's Dry Roasting different than just roasting?

Thanks!

There can be flavoring or gluten containing ingredients used in the processing in dry roasted nuts. You best bet if they don't carry a gluten-free label is to call the company or check their website to make sure they are safe before eating.

I would write to the manager and explain why I would not eat there again. If they can't be trusted to reveal peanuts, of all things, I wouldn't trust them with gluten, either.

I have occasionally sent salads back to the kitchen because the menu didn't specify that there were cucumbers in it. I'm quite allergic to cucumbers, and that makes ordering salads as a sure-fire gluten-free alternative rather difficult. I not only have to tell them to prepare it away from any crouton contamination, but to wash the knife and cutting boards that might have been used for other vegetables! Cucumbers aren't likely to make me stop breathing (but not impossible), but they will ruin my evening and make me very uncomfortable.

I can, at least, understand why cucumbers might be a surprise since they're not a "major allergen," but peanuts? That's beyond irresponsible.

Im not sure about "dry roasted peanuts", but I do know that some nuts that are flavored (usually they are "candied") have gluten. Southwest airlines ruined me with their peanuts one trip.

worth looking into if you want to eat there again.

Yeah, it's not the nuts, it's the process or coating. Some peanuts are coated with yeast, some with salt mixtures, some are naked but processed on the same equipment as the coated ones so they are cross contaminated.

I don't eat very many nuts anymore (is there an emoticon for a pouty face?)

Hope this info is helpful,

I swear, domestic airlines are the most inhospitable place on earth....

first they hassle you about what sorts of foods you can and cannot carry on, and then they cancel your flight, making you wait for hours in a closed venue with almost nothing in safe foods, then when you finally make it on the plane, there's nothing but tiny little packs of peanuts .... yes, with gluten.

Maybe it's a two- fer to free up another seat from their point of view, if the peanut doesn't get 'em the gluten will. <_<

This tread was started about two years ago. I think the point was, that restaurants put undisclosed ingredients in your "salad". So, do use caution.

Regarding the airlines, they are a bit inhospitable. Funny how I keep defending them, even though they have cut my income in half. They are just trying to survive and catering to special needs, just isn't a priority at the moment. So come prepared.

Back to the peanuts...Planters Dry Roasted are gluten free.

      Having a RAVENOUS appetite (or conversely no appetite at all - anorexia) and unintended weight loss are symptoms of early thiamine deficiency.   People who are physically active, athletes, physical laborers, those who exercise outside regularly have a higher metabolic need for thiamine.  Exercising outside regularly can cause more thiamine loss because sunlight breaks down thiamine.  (This is why people with heat stroke are administered thiamine.)  More thiamine is lost through the kidneys in those who exercise regularly.  Because blood tests for thiamine deficiency is so inaccurate, the World Health Organization suggests, if thiamine deficiency is suspected, give thiamine and look for health improvement.   Do not take Thiamine Mononitrate as this form is not well absorbed nor utilized in the body.  It is frequently found in foods, and multivitamins and B1 supplements because it will not break down with exposure to light while sitting on a shelf at the store.  Thiamine Mononitrate is shelf stable - it won't break down with light exposure - and this makes it not bioavailable.  The body only absorbs about 30% and utilizes less than that because it's so hard to break down.   Benfotiamine and the form of thiamine called TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide) and thiamine hydrochloride are wonderful forms to take.   I'm familiar with these symptoms because I dropped sixty pounds in a month because I had developed thiamine deficiency.  I ate well, exercised, and took a multivitamin (with thiamine Mononitrate), but the metabolic needs of my body demanded more.  The years of poor absorption due to undiagnosed Celiac disease had depleted my stores of thiamine.  My doctors did not recognize thiamine deficiency symptoms, even when they progressed to Wernicke's Encephalopathy.  They said I was making things up and sent me home. With nothing else to lose (I could feel myself dying), I took high dose thiamine hydrochloride as the WHO suggested and had improvement within the hour.   I also tried Benfotiamine and TTFD in the months that followed and had even more significant health improvement. Please don't wait until your brain starts malfunctioning or other organs start failing.  Please take thiamine soon.  It's nontoxic and safe even in high doses.  Thiamine works with other B vitamins, especially Riboflavin and Pyridoxine, so supplementing with a B Complex is essential as well.  Magnesium is needed as well to make life sustaining enzymes. There's no harm, no foul in trying Thiamine.  If for no other reason than to prove it is not thiamine deficiency.   P. S.  Thiamine is needed to turn on Vitamin D, turning it into its active form.  Otherwise  Vitamin D can't be utilized and just builds up in the system.

My life is All about food!;( But I shld prob. be less active as obv is keeping the pounds off... And having some muscle makes me feel less depressed with my skeletal appearance.

      A big Thank you! To all who replied. V informative and interesting. Re VitD, mine was always good, between 60 and 70. Then on the Bone Support Supplements by Natures Plus it jumped to 90, 110 and then over that! I was getting to be VitD toxic... As the supps had 25mcg VitD, which was obviously enough to tip me over... I always go out with shorts whwnever the sun pops out to make sure I get it naturally. They say the activated form of D3 ie. Cholecalciferol is used as the strongest rat poison that exists! I also only eat wild caught salmon, only organic, no sugar, bad fats etc etc.... In fact I am 50 yet people think am 35 and am sure is partly genetic but mostly diet(!). But is Not helpful when I need my GP to take my issues seriously.  Interesting about the oestrogen theory! Will research further, thanks! And thank you to you who suggested the thiamine B1 deficiency, it is only a small possibility as I have Loads of B1 in my diet, but is an interesting theory and thiaminase is smthg I will look into! Also thank you to the London person who sent me a VitA test link. I was told these home kits are not worth thr money;( In fact I plan to go abroad where you get every micro and macronutrient as well as all minerals and vita checked for 350euros! Is absolutely crazy London has nothing like that. I did a hair mineral test here, which was interesting, and even that they send off to a lab in Florida!

      @Celiac50, Other than finding foods that make your tummy happy, are you feeling well?  No other symptoms?  That's great progress! You don't mention vitamin D status.  Vitamin D deficiency in the UK has been estimated to be as high as 60% of the population. Celiac Disease causes depleted oral vitamin D from malabsorption.  Most people do not get enough UV light to activate skin creation of vitamin D. Vitamin D supplementation in the United Kingdom: time for change Vitamin D Is Not as Toxic as Was Once Thought It looks like you are going to have to try changing out food by food, until you find the one.  Start with the supplements.      Wild caught vs. farm raised?  Sometimes it is just a subtIe change that can do it. I know that switching to grass fed milk has been good for me.
