365 Brand Pumpkin

I really want to make some pumpkin pudding for Christmas, but when I was at the store they were all out of the Libby's plain canned pumpkin that I normally buy. I have a jar of 365 brand canned pumpkin in my pantry, but I've been avoiding eating it because it says "may contain traces of wheat" in small print on the back, and with the recent press about Whole Foods products, I've been wary to risk it. Anybody have any insight?

What kind of press has Whole Foods had lately? I'm sorry to change the subject of your post but I am concerned since I just went to Whole Foods today for the first time and purchased almost $100 worth of gluten free food. Is it not safe?

Whole foods hasnt had good press around their products labeled as having good segregation practices. But their gluten free food has not come into question and I actually just made some of their chocolate chip cookies. I also used their pumpkin this Christmas and haven't felt sick. I do not eat their food that has the labels "in same factory...but with good practices". Those foods aren't tested and so really you cant be sure. I'd say go for it with the pumpkin and their gluten-free labeled foods, thats just what im doing.

I'm sure the pumpkin is fine, especially since its now really that processed. However, I was less that thrilled with the flavor and texture. There is no substitute for Libby's for me. (my store was also out so I bought and used this).

I heard about the problems with Welshire that is sold at WF, but I hadn't heard about WF products. I had the gluten-free corn muffin mix without problem but seemed to react to their 365 chili, which has cornmeal in it. I'm not sure what was up with the chili but I was wondering if the cornmeal had CC, so to be safe I'm sticking with the other brands that I usually use. I have had problems with other brands that are labeled as described above.

I have used the pumpkin before in the past and it's not bothered me at all. I have a can left, so hopefully, all will go well. I would think as another poster said, it's not overly processed, so it's probably ok.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
