BRAND NAME: NOT BURGER PLANT-BASED PATTIES  A product I came across labeled gluten-free bought it when I got home I read the back ingredients further to notice that it says gluten with a line going through it u will see in the attached pics.     The label says down below that it is processed in a facility that also processes "WHEAT".  I tried to put this on the Gov. website as false advertisement but couldn't do it.  Maybe on here at least the word can get out to others not to purchase anything gluten-free without throughly reading the whole label....It won't let me upload 2 pics.  says to contact manager.   The products name is Not Burger    INGREDIENTS: Water, Pea Protein, Coconut Oil, Sunflower Oil, Natural Flavors, Bamboo Fiber, Less than 2% of: Methylcellulose, Dried Yeast, Rice Protein, Salt, Cocoa Powder Processed with Alkali, Psyllium Husk, Potato Fiber, Red Beet Juice Powder (color), Chia Protein Concentrate, Spinach Powder.   Manufactured in a facility that also processes wheat and soy.         

MANUFACTURED FOR: The NotCompany, Inc, 438    Treat Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94110.

Products can be both gluten-free AND made in a facility that produces wheat products. Why are you assuming that this product isn't gluten-free?

I have seen this problem many times. I always get in touch with the company. Most times they tell me if I'm just gluten free it is ok, but do not eat it if you are celiac. Calling the company is the best way when you are not sure. Yesterday I had a different example of products being marked gluten-free.  I love chocolate and have a piece each day. The chocolate bar I like is Chocolove. When I bought one this week it was not marked gluten-free. I called the company to find out why and if it was still gluten-free.  Turns out the manufacturer decided there was too much on the wrapper and took off the gluten-free label. It is made in a dedicated gluten-free facility.

      There are some other things that can cause elevated blood antibody numbers on the celiac tests. Some other diseases, some medications (olmesartan, NSAIDs) and even some other intolerances to non-gluten foods, especially dairy. But the odds are, the elevated numbers are caused by celiac disease.

      Elimination diet think I may be Gluten tolerant next steps to get tested? Questions

      By xxnonamexx · Posted

      I just don't want to eat too much gluten and get sick for 6 weeks before the test. I would rather eat just enough for the test and not over gluten. I guess 2 slices of whole wheat which I was having and my regular oatmeal may work which was my previous routine and pasta but that's about of gluten daily lol I will have to see not sure about buying our gluten. Is it true after eating gluten it can stay in your body for a long time? If I eliminated gluten for 3 weeks does it mean it's really still in me and I can still have issues? Thanks

      Thanks for the info guys. I’ll follow up with my GP next week. So as it stands it’s looking like Celiac is likely? It’s come as a bit of a shock really, I know my symptoms have persisted a bit more over the past month or so compared to previous flares. I did have a bout of norovirus about 8 weeks ago and stomach never quite returned to it’s best since.

      The 10g of gluten daily doesn't have to come only from bread. It can include pasta, cake, wheat-based cereal, etc. I wouldn't obsess over it. The main point is, don't skimp on gluten. Eat normal amounts of wheat products just like someone would who isn't dealing with a gluten disorder. If you really want to make sure you are getting 10g of gluten daily, go to a health food store and buy a bag of pure gluten. Weigh 10g out on a food scale and mix it in with your beverages. My wife use to buy gluten powder at the health food store and add it to the dough when she was making bread - in the days before I was diagnosed with celiac disease, that is.

      Thanks for the insights. So 4 weeks I should eat 4 slices of whole wheat bread while maintaining gluten free diet otherwise then schedule blood tests? Would eating the gluten damage my body intestine already if its bad? What do I need to look for in a whole wheat bread to find out if its 10g of gluten. I don't want to take too much. I want to be able to tolerate it as well otherwise this test will be hard.
