Hamburgers With Fillers

I ate out at an unfamiliar restaurant while traveling and the menu hanging on the wall said the hamburgers were 100% Angus. I think I had a reaction the next day but I'm not sure whether to attribute it to this hamburger. I called the restaurant and asked if their hamburger had any fillers and they didn't know much about what I was talking about but said as far as they knew it was 100% Angus. So the question is, has anyone ever gotten a hamburger that was supposed to be 100% beef but actually had filler in it? In other words, maybe the hamburger part only came from Angus but it had fillers. It's also possible I got cross contamination from the grill.

Yes it is possible that the hamburger has fillers. Also some places will grill the bun where they cook the meat, so there is a chance off cc. Did you have any fries? If they share the same fryer with gluten items there is another chance of cc. Hope this helps

No guarantees but if a hamburger is promoted as 100% Angus I'd think cc over fillers in the meat. In a hamburger restaurant there are many opportunities for problems.

      Nandos improper preparion celiac childrens food

      By kate g · Posted

      Recently my daughter ate in nandos harlow I rang in advance to speak about the celiac protocals and learned that childs portion chicken nandinos is cooked on the same grill as garlic bread even if they are celiac! Even if you clean it this is not good practise and will be making many children ill. I learnt adults butterfly chicken cooked on a grill purely for chicken.  This is fine and what we ordered however nandos need to take note of your practises for the safety of celiac children. my daughter has been ill from their nandinos chicken before and i emailed head office and they wouldnt accept responsibility

      High blood test numbers - with scales. Any advice?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I agree with @RMJ, you have multiple positive tests so celiac disease is likely.  This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease.

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      By trents · Posted

      One small study found that 50% of celiacs react to the dairy protein "casein" like they do to gluten. It is also common for celiacs to be lactose (the sugar in milk) intolerant, though that often disappears in time as the villi heal. About 10% of celiacs react to the oat protein "avenin" like they do gluten.

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      By K6315 · Posted

      Thank you so much Trents (Scott?)! I have started working with a dietitian and did a deep research dive as soon as I got the diagnosis. I am aware of what you mentioned in the first two paragraphs, and was not aware of anything in the third, so I am grateful for that information, and will talk to the dietitian about that. I think I was most interested in the withdrawal process - it gives me hope that, although I have felt unwell recently, I just need to be patient (not a strong suit). I have printed the article you sent and will look at it more closely. Thanks again!
