Tested Foods List
Below is a running list of the different foods our Research & Development team have tested in our lab with Nima. Our team tests both free-from foods and versions spiked with various levels of gluten or peanut for testing. This list is brand agnostic. To see specific packaged food brands or restaurant foods, please download the Nima App on Android or iOS.
Our team follows the same instructions provided to Nima customers when testing foods. Best practices are:
- Hard Foods : soften
- Dense / Thick Foods : smaller amount
- Sticky Foods : smaller amount, small pieces, add water
- Dry / Powdery Foods : add water
- High fat : smaller amount, add water
- Brightly colored : small amount, add water
- Acidic : small amount, add water
- Puffed : larger amount
- Liquid : careful not to overfill
Full instructions can be found in the Nima Gluten Manual & Nima Peanut Manual.
