I'm An Idiot - Chicken !

:huh:

Note to self - when I feel like crap, look at what I'm eating !!!

Extra Foods baked chicken - makes for an easy supper BUT has gluten. Last week I was feeling so tired - the kind of tired where you can't barely sit up - and my sinuses were bad, but dry. I was also having stomach cramps but my kids all had the flu so I just thought I was next. Fast forward to this week - bought another chicken two days ago. Yep, started feeling tired again - of course, we had some for supper, I nibbled on some for lunch the next day, and then last night at work I had more and suddenly I was so nauseous, ugh. I have had stomach cramps all night and light headedness, terrible sleep, 'guck' in my chest and my sinuses hurt. :( Good thing I took the skin off, where all the spices are, or it'd be worse.

Anyway - my point is to beware of those convenient baked chickens AND if you feel just a little ill, think about what you've eaten so you don't keep eating it and feel a LOT ill. :blink:

Glad you were able to figure it out. Hope you are feeling better and thanks for the heads up. I'm always tempted to try those chickens because they look so yummy and are convenient, now I won't give it a thought!

The same thing happened to me with a Sam's club chicken, I wouldn't trust those store rotisserie chickens at all. That was my worst glutening ever because I ate so bloody much of it. We bought a rotisserie toaster oven. So there, Sam's.

Costco chickens are fine ~ and less expensive that many of the others. :)

If you have a Costco near you their Rotissare Chicken's are gluten free.

Glad you found out what the problem was, I did the same thing shortly after being diagnosed-I was buying the chicken's from Sam's Club and they are not gluten free.

Our Stop-and-Shop, the plain ones are okay...but the 'italian' ones have all kinds of spices & "natural flavors" and etc and don't work with my system. And the barbecue ones are even worse (well, for length of ingredient list - never tried as I don't like sweet stuff on my meat). Not sure I trust the rotisserie to keep everything separate...so haven't had since going gluten-free.

I don't trust the rotisserie itself, it must be impossible to clean those things enough to make them safe.

Costco chickens are safe? WOOHOO!!!!

Costco eh ??? I wish I had one here in town - closest one is over an hour away...but I will have to check it out.

Thing is, those Extra Foods chickens USED to be ok - I've been having celiac symptoms for over 3 years and never had a major problem with them and we ate a lot of them during the summer ! However, once I'm glutened, it is definitely off my list. :( Extra Foods/Superstore does not seem to be jumping on the bandwagon to list gluten in its ingredients on any of its products and there is enough food out there that I am not going to take the time to research every little item of theirs.

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was sent.I have email copies.I did one zoom call with np with team member from celiac specialist in Nov 2025 and she asked me why I wanted to know why I wanted the celiac diagnosis so bad, I sad I don't, its my life and I need revalidaion because its affecting me.KB stated well it shows you are.I asked then why am I going through all this.I was labeled unruly. Its been a celiac circus and medical has caused anxiety and depression no fault to my own other than being born with bad genetics. How is it legal for medical professionals to gaslight patients that are with an ailment coming for help to be downplayed? KB put in my records that she personally spent 120min with me and I think the zoom call was discussing celiac 80 min ONE ZOOM call.SHE is responsible for not explaining to my pcp about celiac disease am I right?

      What is the best liquid multivitamin for celiac disease?
    • Jmartes71
      I've noticed with my age and menopause my smell for bread gives me severe migraines and I know this.Its alarming that there are all these fabulous bakeries, sandwich places pizza places popping up in confined areas.Just the other day I suffered a migraine after I got done with my mri when a guy with a brown paper bag walk in front of me and I smelled that fresh dough bread with tuna, I got a migraine when we got home.I hate im that sensitive. Its alarming these places are popping up in airports as well.I just saw on the news that the airport ( can't remember which  one)was going to have a fabulous smelling bakery. Not for sensitive celiacs, this can alter their health during their travel which isn't safe. More awareness really NEEDS to be promoted, so much more than just a food consumption!FYI I did write to Stanislaus to let them know my thoughts on the medical field not knowing much about celiac and how it affects one.I also did message my gi the 3 specialist names that was given on previous post on questions on celiac. I pray its not on deaf door.
