Hot Nuts

Ok so this is completely random, and I don't know if they sell these anywhere but NYC, but I'm totally craving hot nuts. (this may not be the technical name, but they are literally the hot nuts they sell from vendor carts on the street).

Clearly there is no where I'm going to be getting an ingredient list from, but has anyone tried eating these and been ok? Depending on what goes in them I'm assuming there really wouldn't be a lot of CC issues, they're only made with other nuts.

Jillian--Sorry, I don't know about how they're made, but when my husband and I go to NYC, the smell of those nuts make my mouth water as we walk around :D

I'm thinking that the only ingredients -- you know besides HOT NUTS -- are salt and corn syrup. But who knows? I haven't risked it.

I haven't been in NYC for a long time, but they used to sell roasted chestnuts in a lot of big cities - you could smell the charcoal or coal that they used to roast them. If they are big round reddish brown nuts with a lighter colored circle, they should be chestnuts and should be safe to eat.

Hey J,

If they are peanuts, the are probable just boiled in salt water. Gluten Free Presumed.

PS - Thanks for the McD's gig, you were great and kudo's to your friends.

No they're not the chestnuts. I don't think they sell those on the streets here anymore. I haven't seen them in years. These are more like a peanut (i think they also have almonds and cashews), with like a sweet candy shell to them. One of these I may ask one of the vendors if he knows what goes into making them. LOL!!

Are you talking about the nuts like they sell in stadiums? Almonds, cashews, or pecans with a thin candy-like coating? If you are, the coating is GENERALLY just cinnamon, butter, and sugar. I have, however, seen these with gluten containing ingredients also. I've seen these nuts at health food type stores with ingredients clearly listed, they may be safer from a store. I hope that helps.

Are you talking about chestnuts, they are in a shell? If you are, I think you only see them around Christmas. We only get them up here in around November and December. They are great roasted or even as a stuffing...I love them.

Whoops did not see the previous chestnut question.

Hi im from ireland and we have them here, they are peanuts that have a shell around them and are spicy and served warm... the brand we have here is saharah nuts and they have a wheat based coating, if they are like the ones in nyc I would try to avoid.

      Worsening oral health with celiac

      It doesn’t specify if it’s TTG I’m not sure how to tell for that. That would be so sad. We never eat out I try to be so strict. Yes many dental products have gluten! I only use ones that don’t on myself. No follow up procedure has been done for healing. That is something I will ask about. Thank you for the suggestion. I don’t take any ...

      Is that TTG-IGA that is slightly elevated? That could indicate you are still getting some gluten in your diet. That should be within normal range I would think if you were truly gluten free. As a dental professional have you looked into the issue of gluten in the products they use in your profession? There are threads on this forum and also articles I think...

      I’ve had GI issues since I was a baby! They never did any testing and always said diet issues and constipation.

      Worsening oral health with celiac

      Do you have any sense of how long before your diagnosis the onset of your celiac disease may have been? For most of us, there are years that pass between the onset and finally getting a diagnosis and by that time damage has already been done to body systems. May we ask your age? Also, have you had any follow-up testing since diagnosis to check for celiac...

      The form of the magnesium is important. Go for one that has high absorbability. Most of us opt for magnesium glycinate. Mag citrate is also good. Don't settle for the oxide forms. They aren't absorbed well and tend to have a laxative effect 'cause they just draw water into the colon a' la Milk of Magnesia. Costco is a good place to shop for things like that. Also, good bone and dental health involves vitamin D. Are you taking a dedicated D3 supplement? Have you had your D levels checked? In many ways, vitamin D is turning out to be a master vitamin of human metabolism and celiacs are often low on this one. What was the numerical score on your IGA along with the reference range? I can probably tell you whether it was TTG-IGA by the magnitude of the score. The only other likely option besides TTG-IGA would be Total IGA which usually has scores that range in the hundreds.  I do think it important for you to get a follow-up endoscopy/biopsy to check for healing of the villi. If that isn't happening like it should, you still are not absorbing nutrients well and that could easily explain your dental issues.

As a dental professional have you looked into the issue of gluten in the products they use in your profession? There are threads on this forum and also articles I think dealing with that issue. Have you had a follow-up endoscopy to check for healing of the small bowel villi? Also, are you taking any magnesium supplements for bone and dental health? Very important. It works together with calcium.
