Weight Watchers Smart Ones

Just picked up two Weight Watchers Smart Ones that are labeled gluten free on the side of the boxes, under the ingredients: Chicken Santa Fe, and Cranberry Turkey Medallions.

That is always so nice to see. Thank you for sharing the news.

The Santa Fe style rice and beans is also labeled as gluten free.

The cranberry turkey medallions that I looked at today from Smart Ones were not gluten free, it said right on the box they had wheat in them.

Sometimes it takes awhile for the old stock to be sold out before the new gluten-free items cam go on the shelves. The Kroeger has the old non-gluten-free chexes, but the Wal-mart has all the new formulated gluten-free chex.

BTW, here's a list from our local celiac group that states what Weight Watchers items are (or will be) gluten-free, confirmed by phone:

Brocolli and Cheddar Potatoes

Lemon Herb Chicken Piccata

Fiesta Chicken

Grilled Chicken in Garlic Herb Sauce

Creamy Tuscan Chicken

Homestyle Chicken

Chicken Santa Fe

Santa Fe Rice and Beans

Had the lemon chicken yesterday for lunch, it was a little sweet but good.

I believe it's the new Fruit Sensation line they came out with that has the gluten-free turkey medallions.

      Hope you're feeling better.   I use a combination of Thiamine, Cobalamine, and Pyridoxine (Vitamins B 1, B12, and B6) for pain relief.  Together these vitamins together have pain killing effects (analgesic).  They are water soluble, so the body can easily excrete any excess.  They are safe to take.   Hope this helps.   Mechanisms of action of vitamin B1 (thiamine), B6 (pyridoxine), and B12 (cobalamin) in pain: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35156556/

      I did some research on what exactly is gluten . . . what defines it.  "The term gluten usually refers to the elastic network of a wheat grain's proteins, gliadin and glutenin primarily . . . " "The types of grains that contain gluten include all species of wheat (common wheat, durum, spelt, khorasan, emmer and einkorn), and barley, rye, and some cultivars of oat" (emphasis mine) "The storage proteins in other grains, such as maize (zeins) and rice (rice protein), are sometimes called gluten, but they do not cause harmful effects in people with celiac disease." (emphasis mine) From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gluten What I found most interesting is that some cultivars of oats contain...

      Your point about the limitations of current testing is valid, but the idea of "molecular mimicry" with rice and corn glutens is less clear. While corn contains zein, which can trigger reactions in some celiac patients, rice is generally considered safe and lacks proteins structurally similar to gluten. The term "molecular mimicry" is often overused and not well-supported in the context of all grains. While your experience with corn is noteworthy, extending this to all grains, including rice, may not be scientifically justified. Testing and research should indeed improve, but claims about all grains causing similar reactions need more evidence.

      I think Scott speaks truth. And I think there is more to this than the prospect of her having celiac disease. If it wasn't this issue, I'm betting it would be another.

      So one does need a specific inherited gene in order to develop celiac disease, so in some way I suppose anyone with celiac disease could take the negative approach of blaming their parents for getting it, however, it also takes some other environmental trigger, such as a specific virus or other factor, and this part is not necessarily caused by the parents. Around 40% of people have the genes to get celiac disease, but only around 1% actually get it.  In any case, we could all go through life complaining about all sorts of different wrongs supposedly caused by our parents, however, it's probably a lot more healthy for everyone to try to deal with life in a more positive way and instead...
