Pirate's Booty

I had my first post-diagnosis reaction to gluten and I am trying to figure out what it was. The only new thing I have eaten was Pirate's Booty Aged White Cheddar. The ingredients looked gluten free and I found a website that said it was gluten free but my reaction says otherwise.

Has anyone else had a problem with this product?

I haven't had any issues with any of their gluten-free products that I have tried. I have been known to eat a whole bag of the cheese ones in one sitting :ph34r:

One thing you have to consider is that for some of us the reaction to gluten is a delayed reaction. Look at what you have eaten for up to 3 days before in addition to what you are that day. A food diary can be helpful for some in pinpointing what caused the problem.

Another possibility is that you may have an issue with dairy.

Thanks - I'm thinking about all I ate 2 and 3 days ago that may be the issue. I was at a BBQ but there were other celiacs there and they are ok. Maybe I ate something contaminated.

I'm getting over my lactose intolerance now that I'm gluten free and I have eaten cheese so not sure that is the issue. Good to have it confirmed that others are not having issues so I'm sure it was something else.

Do you notice if you have a problem with corn?

I can't tolerate yellow corn but am okay wtih white corn. I believe majority of popcorn (that you buy in bags) is yellow.

I stopped buying popcorn already made up and just buy the white kernnels and make my own at home on the stove.

Good Luck with everything

I can't say for sure of course but you could be right about the BBQ, you could easily have been CC'd there. If you really liked the Booty you could wait until you are feeling better and then give it another try and see if the same thing happens.

My little girl is pretty sensitive and she has never been cc'd by Pirates Booty, so I trust the brand.

Hi NC, I also ate Pirates Booty and had a very bad reaction (twice). My theory is that they're using cheese from a preshredded source, & that the cheese is tainted by being dusted with a modified food starch that contains gluten. In my experience, I'm not willing to have another episode so if it doesn't say "certified gluten free" it's off limits for me. Good luck!

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: 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/
