Thai Kitchen has "Gluten-Free" on the label of some of their gluten free products. I just noticed today.

I love the Pad Thai Noodle Cart. I think all of the noodle carts are gluten-free

Also, most of the rice noodle meals kits are gluten free

just click on "click to view nutritional facts" and it will say at the bottom in red if it is gluten free.

If you like Thai food, this stuff is great B)

Enjoy

These *are* good!! I love that some of them are so fast & easy. (Step one - stick in microwave with water, Step two - drain, Step 3 - mix ingredients, Step 4 - EAT!!)

Yumm :)

And you're right - somehow things are especially tasty when they say "Gluten-free" on the box and you don't have to worry about it! I love this! :wub:

I'll give a shout out for Thai Kitchen too. And yeah, whenever I see the 'gluten-free' label, I breathe a sigh of relief :lol:

Think I may have the pad thai for dinner tonight...

KaitiUSA Enthusiast

Yea, I love some of these soups too:D

Carriefaith Enthusiast

Thanks for the replies! I like Thai Kitchen because they are so quick and convenient. Very easy to pop in the microwave when you don't feel like making a lunch or dinner. Tonight I added bean sprouts, green onions, and a little extra oil to the Pad Thai and it was very yummy! I've noticed that Thai Kitchen has been in the site sponser box on the left :D

Wow, I love asian food. And some of these are really low in fat. Ideal for my preparation. Tomorrow I get some right away. :D

Their stuff is so good- we had the Thai peanut with chicken, scallions and peas last night. I could live on their stuff! Beverly

I was at a friend's birthday party once, and they tried to accomodate me, but for a lunch (the party was a dinner) I headed out to a grocery store. That's the first time I tried Thai Kitchen's bowls. I don't regularly eat them (they're too heavy on the carbs for my hypoglycemia and have a lot of salt), but they are tasty, and it's wonderful having that convenience. That company puts out a bunch of great gluten-free stuff. Their chili paste is a staple in my kitchen.

Carriefaith Enthusiast
and have a lot of salt
Yea the sodium count kind of bothers me for some of their products... but they are just so convenient and good! Some of them actually aren't that bad for sodium though, but there are a few that are quite high!
stef-the-kicking-cuty Enthusiast

Ah, shoot... :( , I bought the wrong one. I forgot the name, when I was in giant and bought A Taste of Thai Peanut Sauce Mix. Does anyone know, if they're glutenfree? They don't seem to have anything with gluten on the label.

Carriefaith Enthusiast

Stef, I wouldn't eat that kind... it looks like it may have gluten

Which products are wheat/gluten free?

ANSWER:

Most of Thai Kitchen products are wheat/gluten free. The exceptions are Hot and Sour Rice Noodle Soup Bowl, Peanut Sauce Mix, Peanut Bake, Savory Garlic Stir-fry Rice Noodles (5.3oz), and the Lemongrass and Chili Rice Noodle Soup (5.3oz box), Toasted Sesame Stir-Fry (New) and Curry Stir Fry (New).

Anyone know if Thai Kitchen canned coconut milk is gluten-free? I had a bad reaction each time I've tried it. Dont know whats causing it. <_<

pixiegirl Enthusiast

Yes their coconut milk is gluten-free. I use it all the time, sometimes it makes my stomach a bit funny but that's when I use it with tons of green hot curry. Here is Thai Kitchens list of gluten-free:

Yep, it's gluten-free, but you may either be sensitive to coconut, or the xanthum gum that's used in it.

Guest BERNESES

I think it might also be high in sugar. Hmmm... what did you have it with? Beverly

The coconut milk itself has two grams of sugar per quarter cup, fyi.

So I am reviewing the Open Original Shared Link today and notice that the coconut milk (Premium Coconut Milk and Premium Coconut Milk Organic) manufactured in Indonesia contains soybeans but the stuff made in Thailand does not. I emailed the company and asked them to clarify how I can determine where it is manufactured because when you order online there is no indication of origin. I don't have any in the pantry so I can't check the can right now. Soy is a problem for me and may explain why sometimes I have issues with the coconut milk.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
