Lipton Onion Soup

I know there was much discussion earlier about the possibility of barley in this soup. No problem. I have been using it for years with no problem. The last package I looked at seems to have changed ingredients. Now there is "soy sauce (fermented soybeans, wheat, and salt)". Are we screwed? I am afraid to use it now.

If there is now soy sauce with wheat, then, yes, we have lost this as a safe food. There are so few prepared soups that are safe--the loss of one is sad.

I plan to contact the company and let them know how many customers they have lost. In the South we have a saying: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!"

i think the soy sauce would change the flavor, too?  I looked on-line and didn't see these new ingredients listed.

I just called the company and spoke to a customer service supervisor. She said the change was made in July. 2014. I guess the new stuff just got to my store. I told her about the thousands of people who could no longer use their product. No reason for the change that she could find. Maybe if a whole lot us us complain they will change it back. She did say they log the comments and turn them in to (somebody?) weekly.

Someone should insert a link to this in the Newbie thread just to prove to folks that it really is important to read every label every time.

There are  many gluten-free  onion  soup reipes  over the net but  there are  ready made  gluten-free  ones too... although we loved  Lipton's  we  found  good  alternatives that are  gluten-free..... Book's  is  a  kosher gluten-free one... Vogue Cuisine ,  Chef Swagger's Kitchen Riega  onion  soup mix... Mom's gluten-free  onion  mix....just a  few... many  can be  found  on  the Big "A" web store...not  sure  if  we  can mention the name again!!!!

I just checked at my grocery store, and the Kroger brand is also OK. It is not marked gluten free, but a quick read of the ingredients made it sound safe.

We can make this change.  Who's in?

  • We don't have Kroger's here either.  Unfortunately, there is now no French Onion soup that I can use.  I've started making it from scratch which is not a lot of fun but it's better than having nothing.

      It sounds like you're dealing with a complex situation, and I can understand how frustrating it must be not to have a clear answer. Gut health can indeed play a significant role in various aspects of our well-being, including hair health.

      I have found similar benefits from thiamine. I was diagnosed with celiac at 16 and never really recovered despite strict gluten and dairy free diet and no detectable antibodies on checkup bloodworks. I’ve tried stopping the b1 but start to feel bad again- I wanted my doctors to do more extensive testing for the different thiamine transporters and enzymes which would be a better indication if I was deficient or dependent on it but everyone dismisses it (there are know genetic mutations where you need to take it daily for life). I have looked into Thiamine Responsive Megablast Anemia and I have a lot of the more mild symptoms of the disease that manifest when thiamine isn’t given to the patient such as optic neuritis… I just find the parallels interesting. i think that celiacs could be a side issue of inflammation that resulted from vitamin deficiencies. I was eating a lot of sugar leading up to my diagnosis and since eating gluten free didn’t make me feel much better, I’m wondering if this was more the underlying issue (sugar heavily depletes b1). I usually take 1.5g thiamine a day.

      Thank you for your welcome and reply.  Yes I've been carefully reading labels looking for everything in bold and have been amazed by what I have seen. However Heinz tomato and basil soup is wheat free so I m thinking I already have ulcers?  The acid could be causing the pain . My pain always starts in one place then follows the same route through me . GP confirmed that is the route of our digestive system.  So much pain from stabbing to tearing. If I throw in milk with lactose it's horrific.  Many years of it now, won't go into details but been seeing a consultant for a supposedly different problem . Wondering what damage has been done over the years. Many thanks for your reply. Wishing you the very best.

      Welcome to the forum community, @Fluka66! Did you realize that the vast majority of all canned soups use wheat starch as a thickener, including such common commodities as Campbell's tomato soup?

      Hello. Any help would really steady my nerves right now. I realised recently that certain food left me in agonising pain so eliminated from my diet. I also have a swollen lymph node. My very caring Dr did some blood tests and I went back the other day to see another equally caring Dr . She looked at the test results one result has come back with something wrong. It came very fast so I'm afraid I didn't catch what it was. Anyway the urgent referral to ENT. She did say as I had already eliminated gluten it wouldn't say anything on the results and neither Drs nor I were prepared to reintroduce gluten . I've just had some tomato soup and again in agony only thinking this must have aggravated maybe existing problems. Does anyone know what I'm facing now ? My swollen lymph node , pain when eating gluten and lactose and I'm assuming the acidity of tomatoes triggering pain.  I'm trying to stay calm and to be honest I've been in intolerable pain at times rendering me unable to stand up straight but I've always just got on with it . Guess I'm reaching out and would really appreciate any wise or unwise words at this stage. Wishing you all the very best as you live with this illness. Fluka66
