Amy's New Indian Meals


BallardWA

Recommended Posts

BallardWA Rookie

Hi All,

I just found Amy's new Indian style frozen meals, but am reluctant to purchase. The label says "no gluten ingredients". This is not the same as gluten-free, no? I've read other things here about celiacs being glutened by her pizza, so I'm wondering if this brand should just be avoided because the labeling is not really truthful. Anybody have any comments?

Thanks,

Karen in Seattle

I might be wrong, but I thought I read once that a product can not be labeled gluten free if it's not something that would normally contain gluten. Perhaps this is the case. If these are foods that would never have gluten to begin with, then it can't be removed or altered from the recipe, so they can't say gluten free.

"No gluten ingredients" is just sort of a safer way (from the company's perspective) of saying gluten-free. It's sort of a cya thing - at the off chance that there might be some cross contamination. I've eaten quite a few Amy's products and have never had problems with them.

The Amy's products that say gluten-free also say that they were produced in a facility that produces wheat so I interpret that as "this product contains no gluten ingredients but they could be cross-contaminated".

I actually had to stop eating Amy's products because they made me so sick....

I can't eat Amy's products either, they make me really sick.

Amy's meals are good but I've had problems with all of the ones I tried. I've even had a problem with the Chili.

I have not had trouble with any of her meals and especially like her Indian selections, the cheese burritos, and the mac & cheese. However, watch the fat content on the mac & cheese!

I haven't had problems with Amy's either. Could it be something else that can be causing the problems?

I don't think its anything else, I have very clear and unmistakable symptoms when I get glutened. I don't get glutened every time with Amy's stuff but maybe half the time and as I said the symptoms are perfectly clear.

      Sounds like for the good of your own mental health its time to find another living space anyway. It may be best for everyone concerned.

      In the U.S. endoscopies are typically done under light sedation. You wouldn't even be aware of what's going on or remember it.

      Thank you both so much,for the helpful advice on this topic & I am happy that it's not in my head,on my body telling me that something is up with my symptoms & needs a doctor's input on. I have a strong feeling in my gut,that my symptoms are either related to a gluten sensitivity,or even Celiac Disease itself. I am keeping a detailed track of my symptoms,& what foods I ate that triggered them to happen, because I know this will help me to better answer my doctor's questions on my symptoms. I am gonna ask for the blood test,& I am a little nervous lol about maybe having to get the Endoscopy but honestly if the blood test & Endoscopy helps diagnose whatever issues going on with my digestive system & the rest of my body,& why I haven't felt good in what feels like forever,then I will gladly get whatever diagnostic procedure needed. I will keep everyone updated on the doctor appointment & if there ends up being a diagnosis😊

      Thank you. They said I'm gonna be kicked out but I have to find somewhere else to live anyway.

      Yes, IMO, you need to quit and look for another job. You can't put a price on your health. It's unfortunate that your parents don't understand but they don't have to live with the ravages of unattended celiac disease. Sometimes you have to do what you have to do and just be willing to live with the fact that some people will not understand. I don't know your age but that's being an adult and taking ownership of your life.
