IMO, if the manufacturer is actually listing allergens and wheat isn't there, it's going to be safe.

I've always liked the example of water. If water could pass through the skin barrier, we'd all drown.

Most people with celiac would NOT still be suffering two weeks later. It could be something else. I can be very hard to determine whether you're having a gluten reaction, food poisoning or a stomach bug.

No DH, mouth blisters gone, and it was celiac disease, not non-Hodgkins lymphoma, causing my illness. And I quit smoking while I was ill.

#820000 Non-Supportive Husband While Going gluten-free

"I wonder if it's Italian thing..."
Except that Italy is one of the most celiac conscious places in the world because they have one of the highest rates of celiac. I think it's in Italy that ALL children get tested for celiac.
Annie, it might take your husband seeing you get really sick from crumbs to bring him around. It shouldn't take that but it might. My main advantage was that my whole family saw how ill I was and how long I spent in the hospital and off work, and then they saw it all go away simply because I quit gluten, so they never questioned the damage it can do to me.

Kraft clearly lists any gluten if they know it has it. Kroger has been very conscientious for many years. You're actually complaining about two pretty good companies.

#814107 Salad Dressings (U.s.)
Posted by

In the U.S., the VAST majority of dressings are gluten-free. And because wheat has to be listed, reading ingredients for dressings is usually easy. I'm sure there are some dressings somewhere that use barley, but I can't name them, and it would most often be listed as malt anyway.
Kraft will always clearly list any gluten so there's no mystery about reading Kraft dressing ingredients. If it doesn't say wheat, rye or barley, it's gluten-free. I also use Marie's and even Kroger after checking for wheat. We also use Good Seasonings Italian dry mix to make our own Italian.
Overall, dressing really is pretty easy.

#794037 Labeling Laws For Drugs Are Almost A Reality.

Takal, I guess I've gotten pretty cynical about Congress. There's been a bi-partisan bill out there for more than a year now that both sides agree will help keep cancer medicines for kids in better supply and therefor possibly save lives, and yet they can't get it passed. The Republican House speaker blames the president (which is total BS) and the Democrat Senate majority leader says that's the way the Senate works. What crap. I sent in my letter, though.

#792703 When Going Gluten Free Isn't Enough
Posted by
on 02 May 2012 - 06:43 AM
Wow...this is all so complicated...I'm new to this all and just starting my food diary...so overwhelming!
Just tio give you a little encouragement, the vast majority of people with celiac who I know personally do NOT have other food sensitivities to worry about, or if they do have any it's something pretty simple. Certainly, if you continue to have problems you should look into other possible food issues and I DO think it's important not to imagine that every time you feel bad gluten is the culprit, but I simply disagree with the notion that MOST people with celiac have multiple sensitivities.

#792132 Does Dermatitis Herpetiformis React Well To Regular Antibiotics?
Posted by

Dapsone, which seems to be more correctly called an anti-bacterial, does indeed treat the symptoms of DH (I took it for 20 years), but it has different action that what most people think of as your standard antibiotic. And, yes, others sulfa drugs have some effect but are generally less effective. You cannot just start popping any old antibiotic (which would be a bad idea anyway) and get rid of your DH symptoms. It simply doesn't work like that.

"I have been told that any liquid that is injected into chicken would be broth containing gluten."
Absolutely, positively, without question 100 percent false.

Good gravy, folks. Undigested food particles in your bloodstream? Passing celiac along in a blood transfusion? Things are getting mighty weird here.
