I'm asking because I ate it and have a belly ache and when I read the ingredients it lists, "carmel color" and I know that is often a source of gluten.

Does anyone know for sure?

I did wonder that just yesterday in the grocery store. Most of the Yoplait specifically stated "gluten free" and the chocolate mousse didn't have that label. I didn't see any obvious gluten ingredient.

By FDA food labeling law, wheat must be disclosed. Hope that you feel better.

Always hesitate to say for sure for anyone else, but ate some this morning, have eaten it many times and never had a problem. Love the whips. They're light and airy. Never ate yogurt in my whole life, till I got stomach problems and tried whips.

Also, I haven't had a problem with caramel colors either.

best regards, lm

Ok thanks! I too wondered when I saw that the other packages of Yoplait stuff says gluten-free but the chocolate Whips does not.

I would call the 800 number on the carton and ask. I tend to be supercautious and if a company usually uses a gluten free label on their food and a product doesn't have it I either pass or call before I consume. Yoplait is a really good company, perhaps there is barley malt used in the chocolate in a small enough amount so it can be left off the label. That does not have to be disclosed. I would call just to be on the safe side.

Someone inquired about this in the past. If I recall, they are using up their old containers and slowly integrating the new labeling containers. Yoplait has stated that the only gluten containing Yoplait are the crumbs and cookies.

As always, when in doubt call.

All of us have had a compromised digestive system and I would think it not unusual for certain foods to irritate us. Not all of this irritation could be gluten related.

YOPLAIT WILL LIST ANY GLUTEN SOURCE INCLUDING BARLEY....

Thank you for contacting Yoplait regarding gluten in Yoplait yogurt.

It is our goal to help our consumers determine whether or not they can include our products in their diet. To accurately accomplish this, we believe it is best to refer to the specific ingredients listed on each product package.

However, we do understand that ingredients can be confusing, so we want to assure you if the ingredient label does not list wheat, barley, rye, oats or gluten containing ingredients sourced from these grains, then the product would be gluten-free. Sources of gluten are listed on the label even if the source of gluten is part of another ingredient (such as flavoring or spice). Because ingredients may vary from one package to another due to product reformulation, you should use the product's ingredient label to provide you with current and accurate information

sorry to sound ignorant here but, i though that yoplait was no longer gluten free. where i live all the ypolait's no longer say "gluten free". (mass) is it just the whips that are gluten free. i have never looked into eating them and i can only stomach brown cow yogurt for so long. can someone please clarify . so can we have yoplait. i am seriously missing the boat on this one. thanks

As stated earlier by company response, Yoplait will clearly list all forms of gluten to include barley, rye, malt or wheat. If you do not see these words on the ingredients list, it is gluten free. As so are the products that these companies sell:

Resurrecting an old topic here.. The containers still don't say gluten-free on them. Did anyone ever call? I may do so tomorrow since I've been curious.

I got an updated response to something already posted here, in case anyone was interested:

Because we constantly strive to improve our products′ quality and nutritional value, the most up-to-date product information is on the package the product is purchased in. For that reason, we do not distribute product information lists as they could quickly become outdated.

For products not labeled gluten free, we will always declare gluten containing ingredients if they are added to the product. If the ingredient declaration lists wheat, oats, barley, rye, or derivatives of these grains, then the product contains gluten. Examples of derivative ingredients include: malt, barley malt, organic malt, semolina, Durham, triticale, and spelt. We do not include gluten containing ingredients in the ′Natural Flavors′ or ′Spices′ on the product ingredient list. If there are gluten ingredients in our products, those ingredients are always clearly listed.

If there are no gluten- containing ingredients listed in the product ingredient label, but the product does not make a gluten free claim, it is because we cannot fully assure that this product is gluten free. While we have not added gluten-containing ingredients, factors such as sourcing, conditions of manufacture, etc. do not allow us to provide the full level of assurance that a gluten free claim requires.

      10 years later, my celiac is progressing

      I mostly eat healthy. My diet has varied over the past 10 years but mostly consisted of meals I cooked at home made from scratch. Ingredients I used over the years include (not in order): non-wheat grains such as teff, sorghum, millet, and eggs, butter, cheese, some milk, meat (poultry, red meat, but very little processed meat), gluten-free baked bread (mostly...

      Speculating on Benjamin Franklin's Health: Could He Have Had Celiac Disease?

      Not wholly sure what benefit there is to this kind of speculation. I also find it somewhat amusing that the author somehow grazed right past the rather well-known fact that Franklin was a lover of beer and ale and is reported to have been a home-brewer. Yard's Brewing, Philadelphia, even brews a modern iteration, based on Franklin's own recipe: Poor Richard...

      Hair loss

      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.

      Thiamine supplementation

      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.

It seems that anything that disrupts the microbiome sufficiently enough can--in genetically susceptible individuals--lead to Celiac Disease. I have been reading now that antibiotics, excessive simple carbohydrates such as refined sugars and starches, the manner of birth such as C-section vs vaginal delivery, the diversity of one's diet, the presence of certain bacteria or viruses, can all contribute to microbiome dysbiosis, which can lead to Celiac. This is fascinating research.

Ingredients I used over the years include (not in order): non-wheat grains such as teff, sorghum, millet, and eggs, butter, cheese, some milk, meat (poultry, red meat, but very little processed meat), gluten-free baked bread (mostly Canyon Bakehouse brand), vegetables, fruits, nuts, legumes, peanuts, chocolate (not in the past 6 months). However, the mistakes I made in my diet are that I consumed too much sugar and carbohydrates from gluten-free baked goods that I baked myself at home such as gluten-free dessert items, and also I ate pretty much the same exact meals over and over, so a great lack of diversity in what I ate. I got lazy. I think this messed up my microbiome. The meals I ate were mostly healthy though. I always made sure to eat vegetables and fruits on a daily basis.  I have checked for nutrient deficiencies over the years and I am sometimes low in Vitamin D. I started supplementing it after that. What concerns me is the progressive nature of the food intolerances, which indicates the gut is not healing and has been leaking all along.

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.
