A Taste Of Thai Peanut Noodles

Dear Gluten-Free Friends,

I got very ill the other week and could not figure out why. I knew I had been glutened. Well, I discovered it may have been the Thai Peanut Noodles from A Taste of Thai. Dad brought them home and read the label before picking them up.

He did not read the second label on the box he picked up behind it.

The boxes were identical, and the first was labeled gluten-free. As I was putting them away, I read the ingredients as usual. One box had wheat in it! Dad could not believe it, because they were in the exact same packaging! I always read things before eating them. So, I was thinking if these things are made in the same facility and just do not have a warning, cc is a good possibility. I am mad! :angry: I wanted to warn others in case they did not know.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

I believe they have changed them all now to having wheat in them. The older boxes are gluten-free as the newer ones are not. I unfortunately have 2 of the new boxes I cannot eat. I figured that out about 2 months ago. I was PO'd person.

Dear sparkles,

I will contact them this week and see what they say. I have a bad feeling they were made in the same facility as the ones with gluten. :unsure: Thai Kitchen makes some great ones, but they have been nowhere to be found as of late. Wal-Mart does not carry the same products all of the time. I will let you know what they company says after I call them.

Dear Generic,

This is such a bummer! :( Just what we need! More things that we cannot eat! :angry: You are probably right about this. If they just began putting gluten in them, then only the older packages are safe.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

Dear jennyj,

I love them, too! I was so upset when I noticed the wheat! :( These are so filling! They keep me satisfied. Thai Kitchen is not always available. Wal-Mart carries on thing one week, then you may not see if for months.

I also am VERY bummed about this change. I went to buy some more noodles about a month ago and noticed the "new" ingredient (wheat). BLEH!! I LOVED those noodles. They were SOOOOO yummy. I just don't understand why they have to go and add wheat to them!! BOOO!!!

I went to stay with my daughter agter she had surgery two weeks ago and when she got home I bought some for my lunch and she tried them and liked them, she isn't celiac. She called me a few days ago and said she is hooked on them now.

Dear Jessica,

I know, I could not believe they changed them! They are great the way they are! Maybe we could start a petition or something to get the wheat taken out? What do you guys think? Or, perhaps I should write a letter explaining how many people will no longer be purchasing their product due to the change.

Dear jennyj,

The noodles are addictive! I love them! Maybe writing the company will help fix this. These things are one of the few things that actually fills me up. Not many foods do that for me. I am almost always hungry!

I tried calling them the other day, it was a long drawn out process and I got annoyed and hung up. I guess I may have to try calling again when I have more time!! I LOVED those noodles.

Dear Jessica,

The noodles are so good! Why on earth would they change them? I assume it is a cost issue of some kind. Still, I am determined to find a way to let them know how I feel! I am going to point out that they are reducing their clientele by adding the gluten. There are 3 Million Celiacs in our country, on top of 10 Million more people who are gluten intolerant. If they know anything about marketing, they will change their mind!

Sincerely,

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      @catnapt, I'm sorry you're having such a rough time. How much wheat germ and how much gluten were you eating? Lectins in beans can be broken down by pressure cooking them. Do you pressure cook your beans? Were you pressure cooking your wheat germ? What drugs are you taking? Some immunosuppressive drugs affect IgA production. Do...

      oops my gluten challenge was only 12 days It started Jan 21s and ended Feb 1st worst 12 days of my life Does not help that I also started on a thiazide-like drug for rule in/out renal calcium leak at the exact same time No clue if that could have been symptoms worse 🤔

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I don't know if I am getting sufficient Omega Threes. I read about phosphotidyl choline may cause heart issues. I will have o do further research on heathy Omega 3 supplements or from foods. Is there a blood test that can tell you everything level in your system such as Thiamine, Benfotiamine levels etc? Thanks

      Welcome to the forum @Known1, What reaction were you expecting? Pipingrock.com High Potency Vitamin D3, 2000 IU, 250 Quick Release Softgels $6.89 I've have been taking the 10,000 IU for close to 10 years. When I started with vitamin D I worked my way up to 10000 over several weeks.  Even at 8000 I felt no noticeable difference.  Then after a few days at 10000 it hit Whoa, sunshine in a bottle.  celiac disease causes malabsorption of dietary D and you've poor UV access.  It took me from 2015 to 2019 to get my 25(OH)D just to 47 ng/ml.  Another two years to get to 80.  70 to 100 ng/ml seems to be the body's natural upper homeostasis  based on lifeguard studies.  Dr. Holick has observed the average lifeguard population usually has a vitamin D 3 level of around 100 ng/ml. Could it be that our normal range is too low given the fact that ¾ or more of the American population is vitamin D deficient? Your Calcium will increase with the vitamin D so don't supplement calcium unless you really need it.  Monitor with PTH  and 25(OH)D tests. Because of your Marsh 3 damage you need to ingest way more than the RDA of any supplement to undo your specific deficiencies. I believe you are in the goiter belt.  Unless you have reason not to, I recommend pipingrock's Liquid Iodine for price and quality.  The RDA is 150 to 1100 mcg.  In Japan the safe upper level is set at 3000 mcg.  Start with one drop 50 mcg to test for adverse response and build up.  I found 600 mcg (12 drops) a day is helping repair my body.  Iodine is necessary to healing.  90% of daily iodine intake is excreted in urine.  A Urine Iodine Concentration (UIC) can tell how much Iodine you got that day.  The thyroid TSH test will not show iodine deficiency unless it is really bad.

      If lectins were my problem, I would react to wheat germ (the highest source of wheat lectins) and beans. I don't. I only react to bread and pasta, which are the highest sources of gluten. Therefore, my issue is wheat-specific (Gluten/ATIs), not a general lectin issue.   I have eaten a supposedly high lectin diet (I say supposedly because lectin content in these foods is greatly reduced by proper cooking and I eat very few of those foods raw, and even then, rarely!!) for years. My health has improved greatly on my whole foods plant forward diet. I have asked all my drs and a registered dietician about my diet, asked if eating such a high amnt of fiber might interfere with the digestion of any other nutrients and the answer has always been NO.     while doing the gluten challenge I did not eat ANY wheat germ (since it doesn't have hardly any gluten, and I was too sick from the bread and pasta to want to eat much anyway) I will NOT put that poison in my body again. That was a horrific experience and if this is what most celiac patients have to deal with, I am very sorry for them I don't care if I have celiac or NCGS I won't intentionally cause myself that much pain and suffering it's not worth it.

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/
