I am so disappointed with
Wellshire Farms. I heard children were eating mislabeled foods that contained gluten and having allergic reactions. I assumed we didn't buy those products. As I read an article a little closer I noticed that we do buy the dino chicken nuggets, chicken corn dogs and beef corn dogs as an occasional treat. I have completely lost my trust in their company and will be skeptical of other companies going forward. So many people spend so much time and money to eat gluten-free so the can be healthy and not worry about feeling sick.
You can read more about the history of it
here and
here.I still haven't decided how to break the news to Matt that I won't be buying the chicken nuggets or corn dogs anymore.

I sent a letter to the President of the company after my child became sick.
ReplyDeleteHe gave me a song and dance about the fact that their products were labeled appropriately, etc. It looked like a letter from a PR person and lawyer all in one.
My son is 7 and it's my job to keep him safe. I rely on proper labeling and now Wellshire Farms will NEVER be welcomed back in to our home.
We used to buy several of their items from Whole Foods (Whole Paycheck!).
I don't care what they claim or promise, I will never be back.
I too, have a business and I would have never responded to a concerned customer like he did to me.
It was obvious he was in that position for the money/status or whatever else he gets from being President, NOT to do the right thing.
Run from Wellshire Farms!
Your blog is GREAT. I love it.
