Anybody know anything about these? According to the label, they are gluten-free/DF and they are on Gordon Food Service's gluten free list, but their gluten free list doesn't really take into account CC.

I would make sure to buy the whole bag.  It looks like 4 pounds, if a size like that is available, that wouldn't be too bad.  Now a 25 pound bag... well... you better get ready to stuff your face with chocolate!

Yeah, my GFS has the 4 lb bag. They are a lot cheaper than Enjoy Life chocolate chips.

Enjoy Life has gluten-free and dairy -free chocolate chips too, if those don't work out for you.

I like Enjoy Life, but they are so expensive.

So true! My son has a tree nut allergy so it's a good one for us.

Do you have to buy only stuff made in nut free facilities?

I found Enjoy Life chocolate chips in a bulk bag online (5 lb) but ironically the bulk bag doesn't save any money at all. They cost me $4.99 per 10 oz bag at the store and this bag is $39.99 for 5 pounds, which equals around the same unit price.

We try really hard to do that. He is df,gluten-free, and nu-free... my hardest child to feed.

 

Up here, the Enjoy Life choc chips are $5.99-$6.99.  For some reason, food in Canada cost 10-50% more than in the States.  Actually, EVERYTHING coasts 10-50% more than in the States. I think our average house price in my city is about $430,000.... I'm bitter.  ;)

That does sound hard, dairy free, gluten free, and nut free. I'll bet that meats, fruits, veggies, and rice are some of your best allies. :)

 

The stuff in Canada does sound expensive! And the Canadian dollar and US dollar are pretty similar in value these days right?

 

In our area, you can get a house in good condition with a few acres of land for $80,000 or so. We live in Michigan.

Oh yeah. Luckily he would live on raw fruits and veggies if I let him.... and I mostly do.  LOL

 

Our dollars are similar but we're a little below right now. The problem is that even when our dollar is worth more than the American, stuff still costs more.  My son's book is sitting in front of me and in the US the price is $9.95 but up her it would cost $13.95; that would be true of books published here too. There can be some huge differences.

 

$80,000 for a house and a few acres?  NO FAIR! The only thing you can get for under a $100K here would be a mobile home; you can't even get a very very scary apartment. We sold our last house, 900sq feet on a 48 foot (frontage)lot, near the city centre, for about $480,000 - they bulldozed it and built a new bigger house so their lot cost them about $500, 000 when all was said and done.  We live in an expensive city, but still.  If you want to be truly frightened, look at the realestate listings for Bearspaw and Springbank which is just west of Calgary; tonnes of multimillion dollar homes on 4 or so acres.  Huge houses! www.Open Original Shared Link

Oh, so you're in Alberta? :)

 

I'm actually a dual citizen of U.S. and Canada. I was born in British Columbia--to American parents. :)

Love BC, but hubby is in the oil industry so we'll be staying in Alberta.

      Chicken Thighs

      Here is a link to the skin version, and the only ingredients are "chicken": https://www.perduefarms.com/en-US/perdue-bone-in-chicken-thighs-pack/60625.html There should also be ingredients and any allergens listed there on the package.

      Chicken Thighs

      Welcome to the forum, @BeeBarnard! I really can't imagine how either skin or skinless chicken thighs could not be gluten free unless one or the other were treated with some seasoning ingredient that was not gluten free. Do the product labels indicate any additional ingredients added to the meat? Is your daughter a super sensitive celiac? If not, the...

      Chicken Thighs

      HI, My daughter was recently diagnosed with Celiac and I would like to make her some chicken soup (she's got he flu). I found all gluten free ingredients but I'm having trouble with the chicken. I purchased Purdue bone-in chicken thighs from BJ's Wholesale Club. Purdue says that they are gluten free but the BJ's website says no. It seems like skin-on chicken...

      Perimenopause/menopause

      Hello there, it's been ages since I signed into this account. Wanted to see if there were other celiac patients that have gone through perimenopause/menopause and chose to take estrogen or wear an estrogen patch? I know all of our bodies are different but curious how it went or is going for you. Thanks so much.

Do the product labels indicate any additional ingredients added to the meat? Is your daughter a super sensitive celiac? If not, the amount of gluten cross contamination found in seasonings is usually inconsequential.
