Rice Xpress (like Uncle Ben's )

I just found three flavors of Lundberg Farms Rice Xpress at my local co-op yesterday and these flavors were labeled gluten free! They are just like the Uncle Ben's quick rice product that is being advertised on tv with the little girl heating up the packet in the microwave for a minute and then it's done... (only the Uncle Ben's version contains wheat starch...)

the three flavors are

classic beef

chicken herb

sante fe grill

I bought the classic beef, heated it up in the microwave at work for a minute and dumped it on a plate... I did end up heating it another 30 seconds because our microwave at work kinda sux... but all in all, for a quick easy side dish it was pretty darn good.

Good to know! Were they in a natural/health food section or with the regular stuff?

any chance they're dairy free as well?

they would be in the natural foods section. Any store that carries Lundberg rice products "should" be able to get these in.

I don't know if they are dairy free or not... I'll see if I can find out.

I copied this from their website. They have a whole section dedicated to explaining celiac disease. That's unusual.

We have only a few products in our entire line of 75+ products that are not gluten free, or may have ingredients that could be a problem for the very sensitive:

Organic Multigrain Rice Cakes (discontinued)

Exotic Wild n Mushroom Quick Brown Pilaf (discontinued)

Italian Herb Risotto

Our other products, to the best of our knowledge based upon the most current research, are gluten-free and safe for those sensitive to the gliadin protein found in gluten.

bomb! thanks for sharing ! can't wait to try those. i've hated how uncle ben has to add good ol' hydrogenated oil to his quick cook rice. what's up with that?

and if anyone has a trader joes near them, they have their own brand of the quick rice too.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Talk to your  Talk to your provider about testing for vitamin and mineral deficiency.  celiac disease causes malabsorption and eventually malnutrition.  Especially vitamin D. Having the gallbladder removed seems to be a common step on the way to a Celiac Disease Diagnosis,  Gallbladder is a sympton of deficient Choline. Eggs and red meat are the primary source..Choline makes up a majority of the bile salts.  The bile gets thick, doesn't get enough into intestine to digest fats well.  Can eventually back up into gallbladder, cause gallstones.  Without bile, bowel movements can become hard. Try to avoid all processed foods while you are healing, The gluten-free foods are not fortified with vitamins and use various ingredients to mimic fat that bothers many Celiacs.  Choose vegatables with low omega 6.  Optimum omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is less than 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1.   Commercial Dairies milk is 5:1.  They feed wheat, rye and barley Gluten as part of the food mix.

      Your DGP-G is also high. The thing to do now would be to trial the gluten-free diet for a few months to see if there is improvement in symptoms.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Roses8721! How long were you off gluten before getting the celiac blood testing done? The testing is not valid after having been gluten free for a significant period of time. Many of your symptoms align with celiac disease.
