Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 I buy ground turkey and ground beef at the health food store. I sometimes buy the 's Lean ground beef from the regular store. I get regular chicken (I'd rather not, but cannot afford organic chicken. I looked at it again last night and it's 6.99 a pound here.) I get the Perdue Farms chicken. It just has water in it. No broth. For turkey, once in a while, the store has fresh turkey with nothing in it. At thanksgiving a lot of places will order fresh turkeys for customers. We don't eat pork. So, I can't help you with that one, but I believe that organic pork can be found. All of the pork in our regular stores have been treated with nitrates or other ingredients.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Ground buffalo at Kroger Ground lamb at Kroger Ground grass-fed organic beef at health food store Ground ostrich and elk from Blackwing Meats online Most health food stores and many grocery stores carry " natural " brands of chicken or turkey (and occasionally pork or beef) with no additives. You just need to read the labels. You need to search a little bit and read labels religiously. And be careful. When our grocer carried store-packaged pork, the cuts had solution added,, but the store-ground pork was not labeled that solution had been added. I was suspicious, since both meats would have come from the same animals, and sure enough when I asked the butcher whether the ground pork was free of solution he said " Oh no, we just didn't bother to label the package. The ground pork comes from the [X] cut, and it does have solution in it. " So .... use caution and always question when it seems too good to be true.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Almonds are nuts. I would suggest removing them. My nephew goes into anaphylaxis from peanut and all tree nuts. So, my history with allergic children may be extreme, but I like to err on the side of caution. Jody mom to -7 and -9 SCD 1/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 ALmond is a tree-nut. Same advice applies as to peanuts. Again, this is not SCD advice, and I recognize this is an SCD board. But it is sound medical advice for an allergic kid. Seeds that have lower-allergen potential include sunflower and pumpkin seeds, if they are SCD legal (I'm not sure on this).

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Butterball does make an 'all natural' turkey - most of them are NOT though - you do have to look at the label carefully.

Many breeders feed young chickens food with arsenic in it. Whole Foods' chicken is not fed this way. I react to a lot of chicken including some Kosher stuff, but not the ones from WF. As for grass fed animals, there is a lady who follows SCD on the Yahoo Healing Crow list serve who is obessesive about grass fed beef. Elaine wasn't and said just following SCD prooerly first was a good idea and sorting out all the sidebar iissues was secondary. This is not to say she didn't have respect for organic food as she did, but said it was not mandatory on SCD. Carol F.
