Betty Crocker Mixes - Other Allergens?


JustCan

Recommended Posts

JustCan Explorer

Hi All! I have yet to find the new Betty Crocker mixes anywhere near me. My son is allergic to eggs and nuts so I need to check the ingredients first anyway. They're not listed online and when I emailed the company they of course said to read the ingredients. I'm trying to avoid going on a search for them if my family won't be able to eat them anyway. Can anyone tell me if they contain nuts or eggs? I know you need to add eggs but I can use egg replacer for that. Thanks so much!

It did, but so far nobody has responded with an answer to the question. I don't know either, but this reply will again bump your question.

I'm still waiting for mine to arrive, but when I've seen others comment on the ingredients they've mentioned soy and milk as allergens in the box. I haven't heard anything about soy or egg.

I will post back when my case of cookie mix arrives in the mail.

No nuts or eggs. I don't think there is milk unless it is the chocolate chip cookies. We didn't buy those.

I actually made the devil's food cake last night and can I just say, it was the most amazing birthday cake we've ever had.

The mix is nut free and egg free. You add: water, 3 eggs, 1 stick butter.

Yes you can try the egg substitute, I'm sure that would be fine.

I don't know about the other items (there are cookies, brownies, and a yellow cake) but this wax excellent. The cake did not come with a frosting so I made a chocolate genache from scratch.

I found my mix at Schnucks in St Louis. The Schnucks stores all carry it, and I even found this mix at one of the stores that we joke never carries anything. They had all the items in stock. It is in the normal baking aisle, not in organic or specialty foods like other stores do with gluten-free items for whatever reason.

That sounds about right for the devil's food cake as well, but the commenter's child has no issues with soy, just nuts and eggs. I think most items will be safe if an egg sub is used.

I have the chocolate chip cookies in front of me. The ingredients are rice flour, semi-sweet chocolate chips (sugar, chocolate liquor, cocoa butter, soy lecithin, vanilla), brown sugar, sugar, potato starch, potato flour, leavening (baking soda, sodium acid pyrophosphate, monocalcium phosphate, salt. You add 1/2 cup butter, one teaspoon vanilla, one egg.

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
