Amy's Cheese Enchilada Not Gluten Free

It is important to note that Amy's Cheese enchilda states that no gluten is contained but does "not" claim to be gluten free for good reason. I'm very sick 20 mins. after eating this product, be sure to stick to the dinners they make that say "Gluten Free"... In lots of pain right now. :(

I just ate one yesterday with no problems. I'm lactose intolerant so I took a Lactaid before eating but no gluten reaction.

Amy's products seem to have issues with CC. I used to eat them frequently and sometimes they would be fine and others they would get me.

I think I would have said the same thing ten years ago, but after going 100% gluten-free for many years now I know in the past what I thought was gluten free

I've had two of Amy's dinners since going free. One was fine. The other resulted in my worst glutening ever (I felt like I was about to die.) I'll never touch them again unless they go to dedicated gluten-free lines and equipment.

It might be good to contact the company and get their policy and procedure information.

Some of us react to lower levels of gluten than others. I appreciate the warning.

I contacted Amy's awhile back specifically about their enchilada packaging. I was told that they switched to the "no gluten ingredients" when the legal definition of "gluten free" was hot and heavy but the level wasn't set and the law wasn't written. They said they didn't want to get stuck with a bunch of packages they couldn't use if the law had something in it they couldn't do. They said nothing had changed and from their perspective there as absolutely no difference between "gluten free" and "no gluten ingredients used." As we all know, the law/federal guideline still hasn't happened.

I would recommend anyone concerned with the labeling or CC with Amy's call them directly and find out for themselves what their policy and practices are.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.
