NO MSG
​

Monosodium Glutamate, also known as MSG, is a flavor enhancer and a food preservative. A review of scientific data sponsored by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) on glutamate safety in 1995 acknowledges that some consumers of MSG experience reactions to MSG known as MSG symptom complex. Symptoms may include:

  • Headache

  • Flushing

  • Sweating

  • Sense of facial pressure or tightness

  • Numbness, tingling or burning in or around the mouth

  • Chest pain

  • Shortness of breath

 

For nearly 60 years, Thumann's has been creating great tasting and nutritious deli meats without MSG. Their competitors question how they are able to produce such great tasting products without it. Their response is simple; Thumann's uses quality natural spices and only the finest cuts of meat, providing you with great tasting and healthy food without MSG.

​

GLUTEN FREE
​

The Gluten-Free Certification Organization (GFCO) has certified Thumann's manufactured products gluten-free. There is a growing market of people following a gluten-free diet. For approximately 3 million people in the United States, a gluten-free diet is medically required. These people cannot consume storage proteins found in grains such as wheat, rye and barley. Consumption of gluten protein causes damage to the digestive tract and can lead to other complications. Many other consumers choose a gluten-free diet for other reasons.

 

GFCO offers a program with strict standards, regular inspections, product and ingredient testing in the production plants and through random testing off site. Although Thumann's has produced gluten-free products for nearly 60 years, they offer their customers the confidence that comes with certification by GFCO.
