Wal Mart- Watch Out For Frozen Veggies!

I've always bought Wal Mart frozn veggies- the kind you steam in the bag. I rememeber them saying "gluten free" on the back. I stopped buying them for a while and just a few weeks ago started again. I couldnt figure out why I have been feelin more bloated/tired sluggish. It didnt feel like a full blown gluten reaction, but I knew something was off. Welllll./....today I was eating the steamed broccolli right out of the bag and while i was chewing read the back that said "may contain traces of wheat, milk, shrimpp...ect....!!!!!!! grrrrr.

I know the probablility is small that I would get glutened, but it is there and I have no doubt I have been from it. My mom, who is allergic to shrimp said she couldnt figure out why her throat has been closing up on her lately......its a sidea effect she gets from shrimp......another thing that "may be in trace amounts" in the veggies....

just thought I would give the heads up about these veggies!!! its just the steam in bag ones, the others say "gluten free"

The new packaging changed the gluten free status on many of their foods. I am guessing cost cutting efforts combined facilities. Fewer options for us. Sucks. Hope you feel better soon.

Their kidney beans now carry the same warning. After making chili hubby had that same feeling just not right but not full blow gluten attack either. More of my money will be going to Hy-Vee now.

This is why I mainly stick to Hy-Vee. Better atmosphere, employees (most of the time), and a decent list of gluten-free items. Granted, I pay more each trip but the cost is worth it.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      Thank you for the advice. I’ve actually never checked for nutritional deficiencies, but for as long as I can remember, I’ve always taken vitamin and mineral supplements — otherwise my symptoms get worse. This week I stopped eating gluten to confirm whether my symptoms are really caused by it. Starting next week, I’ll reintroduce gluten — it’s sad to go back to how I was before — but at least I’ll be able to take the necessary tests properly. I think the diagnostic process will be long, but at least I’m happy that I finally decided to address this doubt I’ve had for years.

      Hey Julie! I was in a similar situation before my biopsy and my gastro said Tylenol was fine. Just avoid ibuprofen or anything anti-inflammatory until you're cleared. Hope your surgery goes smoothly!

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!
