Deli Meat

Hello all,

I have felt like junk for the last couple days which I had attributed to eating more carbs than I'm use to. Just really rotten and irritable, maybe a little wack of the hypoglycemia.

But...

I have been eating Just Roast Beef from Wegmans a grocery store. Its suppose to be pure beef and I believe them.

What I never thought about before this night was how much gluten can get me and how much could be from the slicer. I had never thought about it before but it kinda makes sense.

Anyone ever been glutened by a dirty slicer?

Thanks

Eric

Damn I thought I was already good at this. I think I made my first major faux pas. :angry:

Sorry you got glutened from Weggies :(

I'm terrified of the probable CC on the slicers, so I just buy oscar mayer deli meats.

A lot of the cheaper quality deli stuff is full of wheat fillers, like cheap bologna.

Either go prepackaged, or go to Wegmans really early in the morning before the rush.

Wegman's sells their own brand of cold cuts pre-sliced in those little plastic containers and they are clearly marked gluten free. I've never had a problem with them.

Sorry you're not feeling so well!!

If you have boars head and it is available to get.....GET THAT. I have had no problems with the brand. I could see you having a problem with cross contamination and the slicer. Where I get my cold cuts, they have a dedicated slicer for me. Actually the only thing that is cut on the slicer is the lettuce.

You should ask them if they could keep a slicer aside for you. Or maybe place an order in the morning before they cut anything else and pick it up when you can. Places are usually accomodating. I would not see a problem with them doing it in the morning.

Good luck and hope that you feel better soon. :)

Applegate farms makes prepackaged deli meats that are clearly labeled gluten-free... they are also hormone free, nitrate and nitrite free and antibiotic free... once you open them though they go bad within days so you have to eat em up quick... (no preservatives!)

I prefer the prepackaged deli meats, no risk of CC....try Hillshire Farms or Sara Lee

I try and go to delis where they only have Boar's Head. There is a deli a couple blocks from me at work that all their cold cuts are BH, and when they make my lettuce wrap they put down a couple sheets of paper on the counter so nothing touches it. I think the guys in there all hate the me (I don't think they don't believe me that I'm not just on some crazy low carb diet), but I don't care because I always have a yummy sandwich and have yet to have CC issue there.

I was getting meat at the deli and asking the clerk to wipe down the blade before she cut my order. We got to talking and I told her about Celiac. She actually suggested the prepackaged meat because it was all done on one cutter and there was less of a chance of cross contamination. She pointed out the store brand meats to me, which I looked at, and a lot of them did not appear to have gluten in them.

This list is from the Hormel web site:

Pre-Packaged Refrigerated Lunch Meats Not Containing Gluten

• HORMEL® Spiced Ham

• HORMEL® BLACK LABEL® Chopped Ham

• HORMEL® Deli Sliced Black Forest Ham

• HORMEL® Deli Sliced Cooked Corned Beef

• HORMEL® Deli Sliced Cooked Ham

• HORMEL® Deli Sliced Cooked Pastrami

• HORMEL® Deli Sliced Double Smoked Ham

• HORMEL® Deli Sliced Honey Ham

• HORMEL® Deli Sliced Oven Roasted Turkey Breast

• HORMEL® Deli Sliced Prosciuto Ham

• HORMEL® Deli Sliced Seasoned Roast Beef

• HORMEL® Deli Sliced Smoked Turkey Breast

• HORMEL® HOMELAND® Hard Salami

• HORMEL® NATURAL CHOICE™ Honey Deli Ham

• HORMEL® NATURAL CHOICE™ Cooked Deli Ham

• HORMEL® NATURAL CHOICE™ Smoked Deli Ham

• HORMEL® NATURAL CHOICE® Honey Deli Turkey

• HORMEL® NATURAL CHOICE® Oven Roasted Deli Turkey

• HORMEL® NATURAL CHOICE® Smoked Deli Turkey

I make chef's salad's with the Hormel ham and Kraft shredded cheese (does not use gluten to keep the cheese from sticking together) quite regularly. The ham, already shredded cheese, grape tomatoes, cucumbers, other chopped veggies to taste and a "bag" of salad mix makes a quick meal. :)

I will not touch the meat from the deli. I am feeling so good I don't want to get sick! I get Oscar Mayer in the plastic containers. They are good!

      Thank you. I already cut out dairy and eggs because I found out I was having a problem with them. To be honest I’m just getting worn out 😂

      Hi Kitty, thank you for your e mail,  I have seen a nutritionist who seemed to be happy with the food diary I had been keeping and nothing was mentioned about extra vitamins, and I’m still using milk etc . The steroids seem to be working and everything is functioning as it should however,  the course of tablets finish at the end of February and I have an appointment with the consultant early April probably followed by another endoscopy, as far as I’m aware I have not been tested for vitamin B and will definitely discuss it with the doctor on my next visit.

      It might be understandable to say "friends or family weeded me or you out of their lives". Some people are fearful of getting out of their comfortable known lives and having to make changes to accommodate another.   If they are too uncomfortable to walk a mile with me, I shake the dust off my feet and journey on.  They're just not ready to learn that lesson.  But you confidently keep going on your journey.  They can catch up later.

      You might also be sensitive to other things while you are healing. Dairy, for example. It won't harm you from a celiac standpoint but is inflammatory and could be bothering you. Have you been keeping a food & symptom journal? Might be worth it for a week to see if you notice something you are eating prior to the times you feel your worst. I hope you start feeling better soon.

      Someone recently recommended Superfoods for looking up recipes free of allergens or intolerances.  It's a web site but there's also an app.
