Kirkland Organic Meat, Crosscontamination?

We like Coscto and their products. We are asking if anyone has had reactions to using their organic hambuger by Kirkland, it is a newer brand for the meat. We switched and have been having issues. We have a son, who is very sensitive, and he had reactions. We eliminated other sources, and reintroduced the meat again. The only product reintroduced to him, and then he had a reaction. I am in the process of contacting the company. Again, we appreciate costco and all they do, as they offer gluten-free items in their store. We are interested to see if anyone else had reactions to prodcuts by kirkland. Greatly appreciate the feedback. We also were trying to discover about their spices, but have left them out for the meantime.

On a side note, we also discoverd, Spice World Garlic in oil, has cc issues with soy. For those who react to soy as well.

Thank you again, this board is a life line at times.

Are you talking about the organic ground beef (apx 1 1/3 lb pscksge) sold in three packs linked together or hamburger patties?

We used the ground beef and I was fine - but I'm not super sensitive.

If they have premade patties I haven't tried those.

THe organic beef sold in the butcher case, not frozen. They use to sell Thousand HIlls, which were grass fed, I believe. THe new meat is grain fed, by Kirkland. Same price, very different product. I did send a note, and called. However, the assistance at the call center was not too helpful. I wanted to know if the meat was processed on its own line, and ground on its own line. THe gal tried to help , but shared she had 10 pages to go through and would take alot of time, however, 20 seconds later, she shared, she didn't think so because she didn't see anything written. That was not a solid answer. Thank her for her time, and will try someone else at the company. We have elimanted the meat and tried a different brand that we know to be safe, see what happens. Thank you for your time and feedback

      I'm not sure if you found what other here have posted on oral thrush, but this might be helpful: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q="Oral thrush"&quick=1&updated_after=any&sortby=relevancy

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      Welcome to the forum, @JulieRe! You would do well to get checked for a candida infection of the gut. Yeast thrives on carbs so you might also look into a low carb diet. These kinds of things seem to be more common in the celiac community than in the general population. There is a growing body of evidence that the development of celiac disease is rooted in unhealthy gut biome conditions. It's good that you are getting that red spot on your tongue checked out soon. It's likely related to the thrush but I would also not rule out a neoplasm which you would certainly want to catch early.

      Hi there! I have very similar dermatitis herpetiformis responses. The only thing that helps is dissolving a Benadryl pill and rubbing that on the painful itchy spots that arise on my knees, scalp, elbows. I have been working with a nutritionist who also has celiac we narrowed down to me only getting we certified gluten-free products - which I try the best I can. But then I have found products that use guar gum and other additive gums I have reactions as well. It was my plant based milk. I had to switch to Elmhurst it’s just nuts and milk- most of the time.   I hope that’s helpful! I’ll keep following:) we seem to have very similar reactions!

      Hi,  My name is Julie and I am new to the forum.  I have been diagnosed with Celiac disease since 2006.  I follow a strict gluten free diet. In July I was diagnosed with oral thrush.  I had swollen lips, and my tongue was very red towards the front.  I also had a weird taste in my mouth and very dry mouth despite drinking lots of fluids.  I went to Urgent care and was prescribed fluconazole oral tablets for 5 days and it essentially cleared up.  Has anyone else had this happen?  It was so strange.  The doctor thought the thrush was from my mouth guard I wear at night.  Although my cleaning process had not changed. Also today I noticed an abnormal red spot on my tongue.  No other symptoms.  I will be calling my dentist.  But am curious if anyone has had trouble with yeast in their gut. Thanks Julie
