Sojo Fish & Chips

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?

Lil

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?!?!?!?!?!

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      Why?

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
