gluten-free Polenta


Breila

Recommended Posts

If Bob's Red Mill doesn't even have gluten-free polenta, who does? I know the issue is CC and not the actual ingredients of the polenta, but my DS doesn't have immediate GI reactions when he gets glutened, so I'm usually unaware of CC but try to avoid it at all possible.

I found a Polenta at Harris Teeter in the refrigerated section by the produce. You know, where the tofu and stuff like that is. It was down in the corner, but it said gluten free on it. I also found one at Whole Foods, I think it was on the gluten free aisle. But, I'm not totally sure about that. I know it was not refridgerated though, so really it could be anywhere.

I remembered after you posted that the tube polenta we use does indeed say gluten free on it. But it takes 2 tubes to make a meal for my family of five which can get kind of cost prohibitive. I'd like to find some dried if at all possible. Thanks for reminding me about the tube kind though.

Bob's Mill corn products are produced in their gluten plant and therefore carry the risk of cross contamination. I, like you, specifically went looking for the bob's mill brand figuring it would be safer and was surprised to NOT see their gluten-free logo on the bag.

      Yeah, that one is always hard, especially since life seems to revolve around food. That happened to me 2 weeks ago with hibachi and with Hungarian hot dogs. I used to be more picky, but now I would love to try all the things if I could. On the bright side, my husband is absolutely wonderful with it, and his mom often brings a few certified gluten-free things to family get-togethers just for me (and tries to make sure main dishes are safe too). Having the people closest to you be supportive can make a huge difference.

      I hear you. My extended family is very good about factoring in my celiac disease safety needs when making family celebration meal plans but sometimes it breaks down in the spur of the moment decisions to "Oh, let's go out and get some teriyaki" or the like. Especially when my brother in law comes into town 'cause he's pretty particular about what he likes to eat. So, sometimes I just say, "You guys go ahead without me. I'll find some leftovers." But, still, I admit to feeling a little left out at such times and a little like a 5th wheel.

      Same, and I appreciate your comments. I just needed to get it off my chest. Sometimes, even when its a genuine mistake, it can feel all too hurtful and I didn't want to go back to work tomorrow still in my feelings.

      Yes, probably slipped his mind. Grace is in order here is my thought.

      I should have added that, while I dont have access during the meetings, I do as soon as I leave them (same for him) so I would have seen before I even left work. He has my number since we've needed to coordinate by cell a few times for work and other stuff. I usually have a protein bar or two in my desk for emergencies so I could have grabbed one of those and gone to meet them at the right restaurant.  Someone else decided on the change of restaurant and it must have slipped his mind that I wasn't coming back to my desk.
