Stock & Barrel Bulk Foods

Hi all,

I'm home in Toronto visiting for the holidays. My mother-in-law purchased some snacks for me for the plane ride home. They were all Stock & Barrel bulk foods products (packaged by Reddi Snack in Toronto, owned by JohnVince Foods): Toasted Corn (Chili Lemon flavour), yogurt covered raisins & yogurt covered almonds. The ingredients seem fine, but I've never been clear on the "rules" around powders. When I was newly diagnosed I was told to be wary of powders as well as natural & artificial flavours on ingredients lists and these products all list powders and artificial & natural flavours.

Has anyone eaten bulk products from Reddi Snacks or Stock & Barrel (or JohnVince Foods for that matter)? I emailed them, but my flight is tomorrow and I don't expect to get an answer before then. I don't have the time (or patience) to list the ingredients for all three, but I'll post the ingredients for the Toasted Corn. Input would be greatly appreciated :) Thanks!

Corn, Corn Oil, Salt, Maltodextrin, Spices, Onion Powder, Monosodium Glutamate, Citric Acid, Garlic Powder, Chili Pepper, Tomato Powder, Natural AND Artificial Flavour, MAY CONTAIN Peanuts and/or Tree Nuts.

If it contained wheat I imagine it would be listed in the "may contain" section, however I worry about hidden sources of gluten in the powders. I think it's fine, but I don't want to take any chances, I'm already sick with a fever & cough!

Thanks again,

Jillian

I see this brand often and never remember to call - have you heard from them? I'm curious to their response.

Hi,

No answer yet. There was no website or phone number on the package, so I had to track them down through three different company names lol. I emailed them through the JohnVince website, not sure if I ever will receive a response. The ingredients seemed perfectly fine, so I tried a very small amount last night (after my flight, just in case!) and had no reaction. I think they're fine, but if I'm not 100% sure I like to hear it straight from the manufacturer.

I'll let you know if I do :)

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.
