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.

      Was the card itself lost or just the record or both?

      The Happy Tart review

      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally...

      Ibuprofen

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can...

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce. Something is making my pain so much worse I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs. Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever...

Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
