Whole Foods Bar Food

I was wondering if anyone eats the soups/chilis at whole foods on the bar, it clearly list wheat on the bottom if their soups contain wheat, like the chili does not appear to have any gluten ingridients would it be safe to eat it? Does anyone eat there?

I eat there all the time...I trust the ingrediant lists, if it doesn't say wheat and the rest of the ingrediants look acceptable, I see no reason why you couldn't have it...unless you have some other allergy...however, i'm sure some people wouldn't touch it because they don't trust it, it's really up to you!

I don't eat them because I worry about getting CC'd. People aren't very cautious about whether the soup containing gluten drops into the "safe" chili.

It is a personal choice...how sensitive are you? I'd rather be safe than sorry.

There is a shrimp bisque that I get at the Whole Foods by me that is fabulous. I'm slightly more hesitant about getting stuff in the general salad bar, but I feel safe getting the soups if there is clearly no wheat ingredients in them.

Yeah, I eat it. It's never given me problems.

But....I was there for lunch a couple weeks ago, and an employee was taking the temperatures of all the items in the salad bar. She stuck the thermometer into brownies, wiped it off with a dirty paper towel, then stuck it into one of the wheat-free salads. I don't know if they do the same thing with the soups, but it was pretty gross.

I think it's luck of the draw - I ate once at Whole Foods and felt fine and was so excited... Next time, sick as anything. I won't eat there again. The convenience is never worth it, to me.

I have eaten at almost all the Boston area Whole Foods at one time or another. I love the carrot-ginger soup and the squash soups. Never had a problem.

      Welcome to the forum, @marinke! "Type 1a diabetes (DM1) is associated with an increased risk of celiac disease (celiac disease) (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/35/10/2083/38503/IgA-Anti-transglutaminase-Autoantibodies-at-Type-1 "The prevalence of celiac disease (celiac disease) in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is 5.1%, and it is often asymptomatic (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/48/2/e13/157637/Diagnostic-Outcomes-of-Elevated-Transglutaminase So, this is 5x the rate found in the general population.

      Hi James47, You are less than 2 years into your recovery from Celiacs.  Tell us more about the problems you are having. Do you just want to get rid of belly fat or are you still having symptoms like gas and bloating.    For symptoms you may need to change your diet and take various supplements that you cannot adsorb from the foods you eat because of the damage caused by the autoimmune reaction in your small intestine.

      My daughter (4 years old) has type 1 diabetes since she was 1. Therefore, every year a screening is done. We live in the Netherlands. Every year the screening was fine. This year here ttg is positive, 14, >7 is positive. IGA was in range. Could the diabetes cause this positive result? Or the fact that she was sick the weeks before the brood test?

      @DayaInTheSun what were the shortness of breath symptoms for you ? And did they come on all of a sudden or was it a gradual increase in said symptoms?
    • DayaInTheSun
      I had shortness of breath so much so I went to a lung doctor. I told him I get short of breath wirh certain foods, he said “Food doesn’t affect hour breathing.” I told him maybe it was an allergy  he cut me off then said “Food allergies don’t cause shortness of breathe.” I beg to differ as soon as I figured out what foods were causing my shortness of breath it went away. I also never saw him again as he was rude, condescending? And refuse to listen to me kept dismissing my problems as “you’re young.” I cut out Soy, dairy, sesame, eggs, and of course gluten. I stopped being short of breath, going on a two years now. No thanks to the doctor I saw. Figured it out on my own.
