Gluten-Free Products & Warnings
(including Dairy-Free Products)
Foods to Avoid
Make sure you go to: Celiac
Disease/Gluten Intolerance to read more about it and foods
to avoid. This is one statement at this site: "Other key
words to watch for are: farina, flour, caramel coloring,
enriched flour, cereal, malt flavoring or extracts, monosodium
glutamate (MSG)-may have wheat gluten in it, modified food
starch, emulsifiers, stabilizers, distilled vinegar, semolina,
durum, and triticale."
Here are some other web sites to learn more about foods to
avoid: GFCF Diet, Foods
to Avoid, Foods and
Additives to Avoid Call or visit web sites to make sure
certain manufacturer products are safe to eat. Ingredients
such as MSG or other food products might have gluten in
it. For vinegar or distilled vinegar,
if wheat is the source, it is tripled distilled.
Some celiacs still react to it. See below.
Distilled Vinegar / Vinegar
is considered gluten-free but some people may react to
it. At Hunt's
it can't claim that thier Barbecue Sauce and Ketchup are
gluten-free because it "... contains distilled vinegar made
from wheat or corn and may contain trace amounts of these
grains."

Gluten-free List @ dfwceliac.org
Also, the representatives said all of the top 8 allergens will be
listed on the label if it is in the ingredients; except: oats,
barley, malt, etc. They said that is why they have a gluten-free
list.
Others at: Gluten-Free
InfoWeb: Manufacturer Addresses but always verify if the
products are gluten-free.
Gluten-Free
Products,
Gluten Warnings, and Cross-Contamination
Gluten-Free
InfoWeb has a statement from McCormick/Schilling (about
their products).
I talk to McCormick/Schilling concerning about their seasoning
mixes. The mixes can not be declared gluten-free since they
are made in the same factory as other gluten-free products.
For example, the sloppy joe mix does not contain wheat but there
is the issue of cross-contamination.
You have to be
really careful with cross
contaminations, for example, store brand baking powder
(e.g. Kroger baking powder), etc. I would not trust any
gluten-free flours and grains product that are in the bulk bins
because someone might put a gluten/wheat scoop into a gluten free
product.
I talked to Kraft
Foods on May 17, 2002. They no longer provide a Gluten-free
list because they feel the ingredient label will state if it has
gluten in the product. For example, if it come from some
type of gluten, it will have the ingredient and then (wheat,
barley, rye, oats, etc.) on the label. They have stated the
same in early 2004.
There are probably
lots more companies follow this procedure of what is on the label
is what is in their products. Call to make sure.
Note: You might
have to make sure certain products are still gluten-free by
calling the various companies.
You will need to
verify with the various companies to make sure the "distilled
vinegar" is acceptable.
For example, the "Van Camp's Pork and Beans" could be derived from
wheat. You will have to contact them to find out what the
status of their beans are.
Warnings for Non-Food Items
Play Dough:
Play-Doh and Crayola
dough has wheat/gluten in them so do not use them. "Crayola
Model Magic modeling compound and Crayola Modeling Clay are gluten
free."
If you need a play dough recipe, go to: Cel-Kids
Play Dough Recipe to find one.
Envelopes and Stamps:
Some
envelopes
will
come
from
wheat gluten, others will come from corn gluten, and there might be
other forms so be careful. So, to be safe, you need to moisten
your finger (or use a sponge) to seal an envelope and stamp.
There are probably lots more out there so ALWAYS verify with the
manufacturer if a product is gluten-free because any smalll amount
of gluten that enters the system will cause damage (even touching a
gluten can cause skin reactions for those with Dermatitis Herpetiformis (DH)-
like I have).
There is a gluten free/wheat free play dough.

therefore not suitable for you to eat. Our other two flavors are
fine- they are, however made on the same equipment as the Chocolate

NOTES:
Be aware of cereals with malt or malt flavor/ings in the cereal
since it usually contains gluten.
There are more gluten-free cereals in grocery stores and health
stores so look for "Gluten-free" on the package or contact the
manufacturer or grocery stores to find out if the cereal is
gluten-free.
Kellogg's Corn Puffs The formula was
changed and wheat starch
was added to this cereal.
Malt-o-Meal: Corn Puffs, Puffed Rice, &
Cocoa Dyno-Bites are no longer Gluten-free
The Fruity Dyno-Bites might be GFCF but there is cross-contamination
issue. Always verify to see if they have changed the
ingredients (which they have to three cereals within the last
year-since 2004). We don't use this cereal since it has food
dyes and other additives. If we did use their cereal, I
wouldn't trust them anymore (since they don't make any other cereal
that is GF).
Arrowhead Mills
There are some gluten free products. Look for "Made with Non
Gluten Ingredients". They test each batch, when this in on the
package.

Twin Valley Mills -
Sorghum Flour Note: You can also purchase grain from them.
We also buy tapicoa starch and potato starch at an Asian
Supermarket. I have not reacted to the brands we purchase so
they are gluten-free. (e.g. gastro problems and my hands have not
broken out in Dermatitis Herpetiformis)
Flours & Grains
Giusto Brown Rice Flour,
Millet Grain, etc.
I e-mailed Matt Giusto and he sent the following: "The Brown Rice
flour is "Gluten Free" as determined by the International Codex
Standard. This standard is 200 ppm(parts per million). We have
tested out these flours and the results are BLD (below levels of
detection). We do not "Guarantee" to be gluten free for the fact
that we are a flour processing facility in which not only wheat but
many other flours are manufactured. This is not to say the product
is not gluten free. In order to be considered 100% "Gluten-Free or
Wheat Free" the manufacturing facility needs to be dedicated to ONLY
non-gluten ingredients." I e-mailed him back and he sent the
following: "The actual parts per million count we consistently
receive is below 10. Any reading below 10 is BLD (Below levels
of detection)."
In January 2005, I talked to Matt Giusto and he told me they test
all their non-gluten grains and flours before they are placed in the
bags. We use to buby their brown rice flour but since we
bought our mill we mill our flours. I have not reacted with
gastro problems and I have not broken out in Dermatitis
Herpetiformis so the grains and brown rice flour are gluten-free.
Grain Mill
We purchased a WhisperMill and mill our flours now. We
purchase Giusto millet grain to make our own millet flour. The
WhiperMill is no longer made but you can buy the Nutrimill
Grain
Mill instead. We buy a 20 pound bag of brown rice (from
an Asian supermarket) and mill our own rice flour.

Natural
Frozen Foods
Delimex Beef Tamales and Chicken Taquitos are gfcf. (wheat

for the taquitos
It is now owned by Heinz.

If you are not on a dairy-free diet, the Chicken Corn Taquitos 20

Frozen Potatoes: French Fries & Tater Tots
Inland Valley Tater
Puffs and other Inland Valley french fries. (They are not
corn-free.) Go to: Allergen
List to find acceptable potatoes.
Since using Whole Foods brand of frozen potatoes, the regular store
bought frozen potatoes are really not as good as the all-natural
taste of potatoes.
Whole Food's 365 Every Day Value: Tater Puffs, Crinkle Cut French
Fries and Hash Browns are gfcf and also corn-free.
Other manufacturers might be fine so you will need to contact
them. Albertson's fries are not gf.

Other brands are probably gf too. (We don't use flavored
gelatin due to the food dyes in them. It makes my son very,

Margarine
Check for the "U" and "Pareve" or "Parve" on these products.
We always buy Fleischmann's when they are on sale. We freeze
the sticks in the freezer. When we need more margarine, we
take one out of the freezer and thaw it in the refrigerator.
We don't use margarine anymore (if we do, it's only in
frosting-which isn't very often).
NOTE: For one stick (1/2 cup) of unsalted margarine, add 3/8 of a
teaspoon of salt (a heaping 1/4 teaspoon) to the recipe. (I
always use 1/4 teaspoon on salt for recipes that call for 1 3/4 to 2
cups of flour.)
Benecol Spread It also reduces
cholestrol. It is also gluten-free.
Earth Balance Including
Soy Garden.
Fleischmann's
Unsalted margarine stick and Light spread are GFCF and cholesterol
free. They have (U) Pareve on the labels. Note: the other two
types are not dairy-free (CF). The light spread has xanthan
gum in it (which is most likely from corn since I react to
it). Beatrice Group
The equipment that the Fleischmann's dairy-free margarine's are
produced on are cleaned so it won't have any dairy products in them.

Rice Dream Beverage is processed using a barley enzyme, the barley
enzyme is discarded after use. The final beverage might contain a
minute residual amount (less than .002%) of barley protein."
Trader Joe's Rice Beverage
claims it is gluten free but I had skin reactions that I only had
when I ate gluten. The Trader Joe's milk in 2008+ has the same

enzymes). Don't trust TJ's either.

the floor and she said: the monosodium glutamate is extracted from a
gluten source but she didn't know what kind. So, make sure
before you eat anything with MSG in it.
Here are two responses I received from Owen's Sausage via e-mail on
5/3/04:
"We do not claim to have a gluten-free sausage. The reasoning
is because most MSG products are manufactured by using gluten based
products. We can not guarantee that all the MSG that we
receive is manufactured from a gluten-free source so we can not make
a gluten-free claim with our sausage."
"We buy our MSG from a broker which may purchase some of this
product through export. As a company we have now made the
decision to not claim any of our products as gluten-free because of
now realizing the sensitivity of people to this ingredient and of
the nature of the MSG production."
Sauces
Lea & Perrins
Worcestershire Sauce (GFCF) & Barbecue Sauce and other
products are gluten-free. If gluten (dairy or other
products) are used, these ingredients will be listed on the
label. Gluten-Free
InfoWeb Food List states what Lea & Perrins sent to them
about the ingredients in their products. Remember, "whey" is
a dairy product.
You can also
receive a free recipe booklet with a coupon included.
Their other sauces might be fine. You will need to contact
them to make sure.
Safeway BBQ Sauce
(Honey Mustard) I think it is dairy-free too. (Milk products
would be listed on the label if it had milk in it.)
Sweet Baby Ray's Barbecue
& Honey BBQ Sauce (We use this delicious Barbeque
Sauce.)
• BUY
at Amazon.com
"Our product is
100% gluten free. Sweet Baby Ray's does not contain protein
from any of the following potential allergens: barley,
crustaceans, eggs, fish, milk, oats, peanuts, rye, soybeans, tree
nuts or wheat. The source of our modified food starch that
is used in Sweet Baby Ray's Barbecue Sauce is corn. Also
there are no dairy products or dairy product derivatives contained
in Sweet Baby Ray's sauce."
If you are allergic
to tomato,
I've heard about Nomato.
Their
sauce, ketchup, and barbecue sauce are carrot and beet
based. (The sauce is corn free.)
Seasoning Salts
Johnny's Fine Foods
The Original Johnny's
Seasoning Salt has monosodium glutamate in it but it is
gluten and dairy free.
Shortenings
The white vegetable shortening does not have dairy products in
them. Most (if not all) of the butter flavored shortenings
and butter flavored non-stick sprays have a milk protein and/or
lactose in them.
Spectrum Palm Shortening
(The best vegetable shortening out there and it's good for
you too. It is expellar pressed so it doesn't have added
chemicals in the shortening.)
Soups
Progresso Soups She said
if it contains gluten in the ingredients (e.g. barley, wheat,
etc.), it will be in the label in bold letters.
(I know the Vegetable Classics Soup Lentil, Traditional Soup
Chicken & Wild Rice, and Traditional Soup Chicken & Rice
with Vegetables are gluten-free and dairy-free.) You can
serve these with potatoes, extra vegetables, rice, etc. or
put them with gravy and make a thick soup.

brown sugars are gluten and dairy free.
Sunflower Seed Butter
Trader Joe's Sunflower Seed Butter (It is shared on equipment that
uses soy.)
Syrups & Powdered Products for
Milk, Ice Cream, etc.

be a problem for some children and adults.
Ah!laska Organic
Chocolate Syrup It is dye-free. BUY
at Amazon.com
Albertson's Chocolate Syrup GFCF
Kroger Strawberry and Chocolate Syrup are gfcf
Nesquik (by Nestle)
Gluten-free - I talked to a representative (on 12/29/03) and
she said all of the syrups and powders are gluten-free.
Dairy-free (Casein-free) - The Chocolate, Strawberry syrups
and The Very Vanilla powder. Look for a U with no D on the label to verify if it
is dairy-free.
Tomato Products
Del Monte tomato products and ketchup are gluten-free.
I found this at Del Monte
Answer for Gluten-free & Lactose-free Products but I
called to make sure the ketchup is gluten-free.
Heinz
Gluten-free Products
I called Hunts and the representative I
talked to said that, all tomato products are gluten-free (except
diced tomatoes mild green chile). The ketchup (or anything
else with distilled vinegar in it may come from wheat or corn) and
are not gluten-free.
Tuna Fish
The crackers, in the ready made packs contain gluten/wheat.
NOTE: Make sure to call to verify
if the store brand tuna are still gluten-free.
Kroger tuna is probably gluten-free but call them to find out for
sure.
Albertson's Tuna, Canned (From a list dated February 1, 2003.)
BumbleBee
Chicken of the Sea
Safeway Tuna, Chunk Light; Tuna (Tongol) The list was received
via e-mail on December 26, 2003.
StarKist Tuna
I react to
something in the broth for the above canned tunas. We now
buy all-natural tuna from these stores and they are so good to
have "just meat".
These do not have anything added (besides salt). They do have
salt free canned tuna too.
Whole Foods Tuna
Vanilla
Vinegar
The distilled vinegar is tripled distilled. However, some
celiacs do not get along with distilled vinegar. You will need
to be the judge if you can have distilled vinegar.
Heinz
Wine Vinegar, Distilled White Vinegar and Apple Cider Vinegar
Heinz uses corn grain when processing their vinegars (and
ketchup).
The "Apple Cider Flavored Vinegar" is not gluten-free.
Albertson's White Distilled Vinegar, Apple Cider Vinegar, Balsamic
Vinegar, and Rice Vinegar List printed February 1, 2003
(Everything is triple distilled and gluten
free. The Rice Vinegar is rice based.)
Kroger Rice Vinegar
I would presume the White Distilled Vinegar and maybe others
are gluten-free.
(Kroger 1-800-632-6900: They do not have a gluten-free list
but you can talk to a dietitian to ask about a particular product.
Safeway White Distilled Vinegar

is on the can.
