Great Chicken Bites

2 days ago at a local health food store I found chicken bites that said gluten free right on them. We then got a bag and tried them and let me tell you these are addicting(and I am a pretty picky eater). They taste exactly like normal ones so we went back and took every last one from their shelf.

They are by Wellshire Farms and they are Wellshire kids chicken bites. They look and taste exactly like normal ones..nobody could even tell a difference.

Has anyone else tried these? If you haven't I would definitely recommend them

Hey. I know Ian's are pretty controversial--you like 'em or you don't. And you tried those and liked them as I did...how do the ones you mentioned compare to Ian's? THanks :)

I personally thought Ian's were ok and I ate them but compared to these ...they just don't compare in my opinion

Those sound good! I hope they have them in Canada! What do they use instead of wheat?

I found that these are all different thicknesses and when I would cook them, some would be pink inside, so I stopped having them and I have Ians instead (well, not right now, they don't stand a chance in the blender...) and they are about the same I think, I will have the Wellshire Kids ones occassionally but really cook them to make sure they are al cooked.

hmm...never had a problem with that over here but I'll definitely pay attention for it. I always make sure my meat is cooked well before eating it and you should always make sure because you don't want to end up sick.

Some one on this board recomended them a while back. My toddler son loved them for about 2 weeks... now he wont touch them(typical)... so we stopped buying them for now. We have to drive 45mins to the closest store that carries them.

They dont taste like the Tyson ones that he loved before his celiac disease Dx, if they did he prbly eat them hand and fist....

Vydorscope-Has your son tried Ian's chicken nuggets yet? I know with Ian's it is controversial some people like them and some don't. I'm guessing same goes for these too. It just depends on what the person likes.

HAve not seen Ian's around here... what is "controversial" about them?

It's been controversial about the taste...I mean it's like that with just about every food though. Maybe your son will like Ian's kind better.

Odd... I would never have thought that becuase one person likes a food, and another does not, it would be called "controversial"... seems silly, cause then ever single peice of food ever created is controversial! :lol:

:D

My son likes the Wellshire chicken nuggets. We buy them in Whole Foods in Montclair, NJ and also The Happy Carrot in River Edge, NJ (a health food store, which also carries lots of gluten free products). Who sells the Ian's brand? Haven't seem them yet.

Be sure to get the Ian's Allergy Free kind. They do make nuggets and fish sticks that contain gluten. The allergy free are the ones that you want!!

      Son's legs shaking

      Hi, My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine...

      Son's legs shaking

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin. He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her...

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
