Chili Powder? Mccormick, Yes Or No

I was hoping to make chili this weekend and it suddenly hit me that I have no idea if my chili powder is safe or not.  I keep hearing that McCormick is okay but then it's not a "single ingredient" spice.  So I googled it and found this:

I guess this means McCormick Chili Powder is out?  Any suggestions for alternatives?

I use this brand all the time! I guess I am wondering why you think the Chili powder is out? The link you supplied also supports it as safe.... 

 

Its different types of chili but if you go for the gourmet brand.. chilis is all you are getting.

I always use McCormick spices. If they add wheat/gluten its in bold on the label. One of the reasons I use them

I use McCormicks. If you want a complete chili seasoning, Williams chili seasonings are only spices. Of course, read the ingredients, just in case

Yup it took me a while to figure out the spices were not gluten-free , I thought if it was no fillers it was gluten free, not the case! It can be made in a glutenised factory or packaged and CC'd ... I use McCormics now :) Or I buy fresh and dehydrate myself some onion powder some Garlic powder , some basil You can make your own Chili powder also It's fun to do and very rewarding.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.

      It's most likely going to be a celiac disease diagnosis based on your blood test results, but wait for your doctor to give you a green light for going gluten-free, as they may want to do additional testing. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
