Help
I bought a box of Sojo FIsh & Chips at Whole Foods.
It says gluten free right on the box - TWICE!
Yet it says is contains malt viniger, which, I thought was NOT gluten-free.
Sure enough, 10 minutes later (now), I have that tell-tale headache right in the middle of my forehead, like a band is across it. A sure sign (for me) or being glutened.
Thoughts? Was that just a dumb thing for me to do, seeing "malt viniger" as an ingredient & buying it anyway, just because it said it was gluten-free? Am I just causing this reaction psychosomatically? Do I need to call them & let them know their product is NOT gluten free?
What's a girl to think/do?

Do you have a website or # for the brand? Malt vinegar isn't gluten-free. Was it mixed in or in a separate package?

OMG!!!
I just got of the phone with Joe from Sojo Foods - he is SO awsome!
Despite the fact that according to the tests the Canadian Government conducted (that have a zero parts per million standard) the product contains no gluten, the company is altering their recipe from using malt vinegar to using regular vinegar.
He is also contacting all the stores that carry the product and letting them know one of the customers had a rection to that product.
I can't believe it! Even though I am the only person to notify them of a reaction, they are changing their recipe!!!!!!!
Do they not just ROCK?!?!?!?!?!
