Dale And Thomas Popcorn

I was just curious if anyone had tried Dale and Thomas Popcorn. The today show had a bit on about it this morning. If you go and tell them a popcorn horror story you can get a free bag of their popcorn to try. I went to their website and they have CLEARLY listed which of their popcorns are gluten free and which are not. Looks like an awesome company. Anyone had any experience with them?? Popcorn looks YUMMY!

Never tried it but it is actually co-owned by the Knicks GM / HOF'er Isiah Thomas. Guess he runs his popcorn business better than his basketball team.

The funny thing is based on the ingredients I can't tell why the two listed as not gluten-free are listed that way. Unless they are being extra careful with the carmel coloring and vinegar. I guess its better for a company to be conservative on these ingredients.

I actually emailed them asking the same question. So hopefully I'll hear something back before my free bag of popcorn arrives :)

Ok this is kinda freaky you posted this because I meant to the other day, but I've been so busy this week I just kept forgetting. But I was wondering the same thing, especially since they sell it in our cafeteria at work and I always want to try it.

Great minds think alike :blink: ha

I'll post if I hear back from the company, maybe someone else has already asked them that question before and they can enlighten us :) I REALLY want to try this popcorn.

I finally heard back from them today and here is what they say :)

Dear Jessica,

Thank you for contacting Dale and Thomas Popcorn.

All of our products are gluten free. Thank you bringing it to our attention that the Chocolate Chunk and Caramel is not labeled accordingly. That flavor is made from our Dales Caramel and the same chocolate used in all of other chocolate flavors, which are all gluten free. We will have this corrected accordingly.

Thank you and please feel free to contact us with any further questions you may have.

Best regards,

Jennifer Lum

Customer Service, Team Leader

Love their popcorn! My roommate brought some home for the grammys a few weeks back and then said "Oh no, u probably cant have this!" so she went to the website and i was so psyched to see it actually had gluten-free info! Thanks for contacting them and clearing up that mislabel! (and killernj- right on about Thomas!! :P )

      corn: It is the second most commonly genetically modified food on the planet (soy is #1) Genetic modification of foods continues to kill animals in scientific studies. It is an incomplete protein. It is difficult for humans to digest (ever see corn in your stool?) It is high in calories and low in nutrient value It is a new food to the human genome. It is being used as a staple food for our cattle, fish, chicken, and cars. Cows and fish are not designed to eat grain. (Have you ever seen a fish jump out of a lake into a corn field for supper?) When animals eat corn as a staple they have shorter life spans. Corn fed beef is linked to heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and obesity. Grass fed beef is not. Fructose derived from corn is toxic to the liver and contributes to severe health issues. Corn syrup has mercury in it. The list can go on and on and on… Many consumers bow to the alter of “Gluten Free” packaged foods as if the label is a safety net. “Gluten Free” on the package does not mean that the food is healthy. Do not deny yourself the God given right to be healthy.

      Corn Gluten vs. Wheat Gluten: Corn gluten (zein) is different from wheat gluten (gliadin), but both are types of gluten.  Inflammatory Response: Some celiac patients have shown an inflammatory response after consuming corn.  Cross-Reactivity: Corn can mimic gluten in sensitive individuals, potentially triggering immune responses similar to those caused by gluten.  Individual Sensitivity: Many individuals with celiac disease or gluten intolerance find that they can't tolerate corn gluten, even though they avoid wheat, barley, and rye.  Nonresponsive Celiac: Some individuals with celiac disease don't respond well to a gluten-free diet, and this may be due to gluten contamination or other factors, including reactions to corn gluten.  Corn Derivatives: Even processed corn products like high-fructose corn syrup or corn oil may cause issues in sensitive individuals.

      Welcome to the gluten-free journey! It’s great that you’re exploring ferments like kefir—they can be a wonderful support for gut health, especially when navigating celiac or gluten sensitivity. Kefir is rich in probiotics, and many people find it soothing during gut healing. It’s great that you’re already thinking about making sauerkraut and kimchi too—those are fantastic next steps! And that’s incredibly generous of you to offer kefir grains; I’m sure there are folks in NYC who would love to start their own batch. Keep sharing and exploring—you’re off to a great start!
