I have never seen that at our Trader Joe's but TJ'S does have a gluten-free list printed if you ask at the front office. It is lengthy but I don't see the food you mentioned but my list from TJ's is over a year old now. Whole Foods also has a printed phamplet with gluten-free...

Trader Joe's updates their list fairly regularly, and it can be downloaded from their website.

The Vindaloo isn't on their list, but if you read the ingredients carefully it should tell you. They do not hide gluten in things like "natural flavors." Most of their foods don't have dedicated lines, though, so although they practice "good manufacturing" to clean lines between runs, some of the most sensitive people still have had issues with certain TJ's products.

All of their foods which are manufactured in facilities or on equipment with wheat are marked on the label, however, as an added precaution.

Is it the Butter Chicken, or is there actually a vindaloo? I've been eating the butter chicken, LOVE it and no problems!

BTW if you're craving vindaloo, Patek's curries are almost all gluten-free - their vindaloo paste is delicious and I put it on chicken often.

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.

      It's great to hear that eliminating gluten has helped alleviate symptoms like eye burning, which is a significant and positive change. The first and most important step is to ensure you're consuming enough protein throughout the day to support muscle repair and growth, which can be challenging with a busy schedule. Since you're already physically active at work, adding focused strength training just 2-3 times per week can make a major difference. Bodyweight exercises like squats, push-ups (modified if needed), and lunges, or using resistance bands at home, are excellent, efficient places to start. Remember, consistency with these short sessions and prioritizing post-workout recovery, including good sleep and hydration, are just as crucial as the workouts themselves. It's a smart, gradual process at any age.

      Trader Joe's carries a good variety of affordable gluten-free foods like bagels, hamburger buns, pasta, etc. I like Franz Gluten Free bread, which is available at my local Costco. Food For Life and Little Northern Bakehouse (advertisers here) also make excellent gluten-free breads. Costco also sells gluten-free pizzas, crackers, gravy, etc.
