Hello Ken,

Thanks for writing!

We apologize that we are unable to provide you with a list of gluten free products.

Because our products are formulated for use by the majority of our consumers, and not specifically for those on restricted diets, it is possible our product formulations may change at any time. As a result, we cannot provide a list due to several factors:

- Lists of this type reflect products as formulated at a specific time
- It is possible that more products/varieties may have been added
- More important, changes in existing products may have occurred

Ingredients that may contain any of the top eight allergens as defined by FDA are:

Milk, Eggs, Fish, Shellfish & Crustacean, Wheat, Soy, Peanuts, Tree Nuts, Sesame Seeds, and Sulfites.

We make every effort to stay informed about any additional ingredients that could be considered common allergens. Whenever possible, we try to avoid using materials that could be considered to be commonly allergenic, so that potential allergens are not included in categories such as "Natural Flavors."

We suggest reading all ingredient labels carefully. If you cannot determine whether or not the product contains the ingredient in question, or if you feel uncomfortable about the ingredients used in our products, it is our recommendation that you do not use them.

We hope this information is helpful.
Your friends at Knorr

My question is... is the Old El Paso salsa gluten free in Canada? Anyone know? I've tried searching online with no luck. I have the Thick N' Chunky Medium flavour. The ingredients list onion and garlic powders so there could be hidden gluten there. Is this brand known for listing allergens reliably? Anyone in Canada use this product?

Thanks

Water, Olive Oil, Canola Oil, Soybean oil, Vinegar, Modified food starch, Sugar, Maltodextrin, eggs, Contains less then 2% of salt, Mustard Flour, Dried Onions, Dried Garlic Natural Flavor, Enzyme modified egg yolk, Beta Caratene, (color), Lactic Acid, Potassium Sorbate, and Calcium Disodium EDTA as a preservatives, osphoric acid.

then Contains : egg

Ok so I see Modified food Starch but since its Kraft is should say (wheat) correct? and natural flavorings but it does not say anything with wheat and then it does not say contains wheat. So what is wrong with it?? I would eat it but its not one of the mayo's listed as Gluten free on their website..so is the gluten hidden or am I missing something? Thanks to anyone who answers

I found frozen Chicken Taquitos and Beef Taquitos, mfr'd by Reser's Fine Foods. I was happy, as ingredients look safe--corn tortillas, nothing that should contain gluten, & nothing suspicious! I bought a couple boxes, but decided to check their website before eating. This is what I found, so I think I should return the items, and just make them from scratch...

Anyone have cc info on Reser's products to share? I hate it when companies have policies like this, where cc is a gamble.

Thanks!

5. Are any of Reser’s products “gluten free”?

Reser’s strives to meet our customers’ needs, however because all of our plants make hundreds of fresh recipes from thousands of ingredients, we cannot guarantee a “gluten free” manufacturing environment for any single product. Rather than risk customer satisfaction, we have chosen to not make gluten claims on our products. Each ingredient is very clearly stated on the packaging label so that Reser’s consumers can make informed choices about the foods they eat.]]> Thu, 05 Nov 2009 22:59:04 -0800 http://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/index.php?showtopic=63512 http://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/index.php?showtopic=63502
I am very new to the gluten-free lifestyle and this will be my first gluten-free Thanksgiving, im a little scared. I have been avoiding alot of meat in my diet, just because it is hard for me to find poultry and such that has not been injected with gluten containing broth. I know that the glutenated broth is especially put into whole chickens and turkeys. I was wondering if anyone knew of any stores or brands that have gluten free turkeys. Any suggestions on what do you do for your thanksgiving turkey would be greatly appreciated, thanks.]]> Thu, 05 Nov 2009 13:51:51 -0800 http://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/index.php?showtopic=63502 http://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/index.php?showtopic=63434 Tue, 03 Nov 2009 18:57:00 -0800 http://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/index.php?showtopic=63434 http://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/index.php?showtopic=63369
The brand is Kirkland Signature Mexican Blend and here are the ingredients:

monterey jack, medium cheddar, queso quesadilla and asadero cheeses (cultured pasteurized milk, salt, enzymes, artificial color [in cheddar chese]), potato starch and powdered cellulose added to prevent caking, natamycin (a natural mold inhibitor).

I think it is gluten free??]]> Mon, 02 Nov 2009 09:58:46 -0800 http://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/index.php?showtopic=63369 http://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/index.php?showtopic=63361
"2006/02/20: Evidently the dairy inspectors require
that milk-similar items without milk (but with casein!) are labelled
as non-dairy to avoid confusing the consumer! They're worried about
the consumer who is hoping to get milk product and doesn't - and
those of us with allergies are screwed.

http://daveola.com/Vegetarian/Casein/ "

My husband and I were discussing this at dinner, and I wondered about non-dairy coffee creamers, and if the same situation existed. Sure enough, a search for Coffee Mate produced the following in the ingredients:

"Sodium caseinate (derived from milk)**

**not a source of lactose"

So for anyone avoiding dairy by using non-dairy coffee creamer, guess what?? You are consuming dairy. It's all right if you are lactose intolerant only, but tough luck if you are casein intolerant. This is blatant false labeling in my book. The dairy industry must be a very powerful lobby.
