Warning - Watch Your Ore Ida Products!

Just wanted to put a warning out there about Ore Ida products. I went to make lunch today and got out my bag of Crispy Crowns that say "Gluten-Free" in big white letters under the ingredients. Luckily, I double checked the ingredients before I put them in the oven . . . Wheat Flour listed right in the ingredients and following the allergen information :o Couldn't believe Wheat Flour and Gluten Free were listed about 2 inches apart on the packaging! I emailed the company . . . no response yet.

Just wanted to give you all a heads up!

Yeah, I'm interested to see which was a mistake - the gluten free labeling or the wheat ingredient - pretty scary either way! :angry:

I would contact the company and explain the issue. A serious issue in my opinion.

Sorry, it said that the company is aware of the misprint and is working hard to correct it. The product is not gluten free.

Thank you! I was assuming the "Gluten Free" was the misprint since after I went to their website, the crispy crowns were not on the Gluten Free list. I hope they will at least refund my $$$. That's a very serious mistake!

I just got an email from the company to call their customer representatives - they said that the wheat flour was the mislabel (they just switched ingredients) and that the gluten free label is correct, the wheat flour is no longer an ingredient in the Crispy Crowns. I said I absolutely do not trust that the product is gluten free and wanted a refund - they are sending me a check. Definitely will not be buying Ore-Ida again :(

I had purchased Ore Ida "tater tots". They didn't list any gluten ingredients. However, they aren't on the gluten-free list but I can't find them listed on the website at all.

Anyone have any experience with those? I opted not to eat them last night but lacking any other info I'll try them over the weekend when I have time to recover if I'm wrong.

Edit: I have found them on the website, still can't see a gluten ingredient...

Tater Tots are gluten free and are on the list. My brother just told me over the weekend that the Crispers are now marked as gluten-free on the bag (these were my favorite fries). I called the company just to make sure and they said they are infact gluten free. There were never any gluten ingredients in them, but I simply didn't eat them because they weren't on the list. I bought a bag last night! Yum!

I called about Tater Tots in August and were told they are indeed Gluten Free. Enjoy!

      Maybe celiac but maybe NCGS that was misdiagnosed as IBS morphing gradually into celiac. Is NCGS a new category to you? It shares many of the same GI symptoms with celiac disease but does not damage the small bowel lining like celiac.

      Oral thrush question

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Thiamine has antifungal properties.  The body uses thiamine to keep bacteria and yeasts from overgrowth in the digestive system.   Fluconazole use can cause thiamine deficiency.   Supplementing with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine would be beneficial as Benfotiamine promotes intestinal healing.   Thiamine and the other B vitamins tend to be low in Celiac due to malabsorption.  Talk to your doctor about supplementing vitamins and minerals.

      Nutrient deficiencies despite normal MARSH and strict gluten-free diet

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome @Natalia Revelo, your experience is profoundly difficult and, sadly, not entirely unique within the celiac community. It's the frustrating reality of "silent" or ongoing damage that isn't captured by the MARSH score alone, which only measures active villous atrophy. Your normal biopsy suggests your diet is preventing the classic autoimmune attack, but it doesn't mean your gut has fully healed or that other issues aren't at play. The inflammation from your newly discovered milk and egg allergies is a huge clue; this constant allergic response can create a low-grade inflammatory environment that severely hampers nutrient absorption, effectively creating a "leaky gut" scenario independent of celiac damage. This is likely why your iron stores deplete so rapidly—your body is both unable to absorb it efficiently and may be losing it through inflammation. While the functional medicine path is expensive, it's clearly providing answers and relief that traditional gastroenterology, focused solely on the gluten-free diet and biopsy results, is missing. To move forward, continue the gut-healing protocols your functional doctor recommends (perhaps exploring alternative options to glutamine that won't irritate your cystitis), maintain your strict avoidance of all allergens and irritants, and know that true healing is a multi-faceted process. You might seek a second opinion from a different gastroenterologist who is more knowledgeable about non-responsive celiac disease and the complex interplay of food allergies and micronutrient absorption, but your current path, while costly, seems to be leading you toward the steady health you need.

      Blood results

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Have you had a DNA test to look for Celiac disease genes?  If she doesn't have any celiac specific genes, look for another explanation.  If she does have Celiac genes, assume they are turned on and active Celiac disease is progressing.  All first degree relatives (mother, father, siblings, children) should be genetically tested as well.   Sometimes blood tests are ambiguous or false negatives if one has anemia, diabetes or thiamine deficiency.  Certain medications like antihistamines and steroids can suppress the immune system and result in false negatives or ambiguous results on antibody tests.

      That was just the visual report, so need to wait for confirmation or otherwise from the results. They did take a biopsy from the upper end of the duodenum(D1). D2 looked unremarkable on the camera. Just wish we didn’t have to wait so long for the results as she’s naturally a very anxious person. But thanks so much for taking the time to answer me
