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.

      @Scott Adams  Sure, Any and all information is welcome. Also the only was to convince my family to get tested is to get tested myself and conclusive answers. Very stubborn lot.

      Understood. It's very anxiety-provoking when you don't know what you are dealing with and don't know if you are attacking it correctly.

      I have heard of NCGS, but everything is just so confusing!!! Just unsure of things as her EMA test was negative but TTG was positive @19u/ml(lab range 0.0-7.0).Apparently she also has occasional bubble like blisters in between her fingers, don’t know if that’s significant. She is triallling gluten free as suggested by the gastroenterologist after her endoscopy. Keep getting different answers when typing in her symptoms etc. Some sites say it can be possible to have coeliac, even with a negative EMA . It’s so frustrating and her anxiety levels are through the roof. I know she’s hoping it’s coeliac which is weird I know!!! But if it’s not it just means more tests. Sorry to ramble on!!!

      I ame looking for rice flakes that aren't cross contaminated to use in making oat free granola. Does anyone know of a brand? Also I see that some people just used puffed rice cereal, but it seems like that wouldn't be sturdy enough to withstand the mixing without crumbling. Any ideas out there? Thanks!

      There isn't because there is currently no gluten-free labeling requirement for prescription medications. You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
