Anyone have any trouble with Miracle Whip?  I'm wondering if there is cross-contamination issues with the mustard flour?

I haven't looked at the label recently as we don't use anything like that.  But I think it is considered gluten-free from past info.  It  is a Kraft so they will clearly label anything derived from gluten.

looking at the label right now:

 

water, soybean oil, high fructose corn syrup, vinegar, modified cornstarch, eggs, salt, natural flavor, mustard flour, potassium sorbate as a preservative, paprika, spice, dried garlic.

 

well, there's 3 of the big 8  (is it 8?  lolz) - now, cootiegirl, WHY on God's green earth, would you zoom in right on the poor helpless mustard flour??  especially when it is listed toward the end of the ingredient list, well beyond the soy, corn and eggs.......  :unsure:

 

it IS gluten free, btdubs.

And it isn't like mustard flour is likely to be made in a what flour factory! Lol

We use it and we have never had a gluten reaction.

Because I don't have any issues with soy, corn, or eggs.  I don't use mayo very often - in fact I usually end up throwing out at least 3/4 of the jar because it expires while sitting in the fridge.  But I read where there can be cross-contamination issues with mustard seed powder (not sure if this is different than "mustard flour") and just wanted to see if anyone had ever had any issues with it.

Exactly the response I was hoping for.  Thanks!

(didn't want to be scared of the deviled eggs)

The main thing that scares me about deviled eggs is the fact that someone may have made them with a CC'ed jar of mayo. If you can verify that the mayo is gluten free and that the person making them didn't CC them, probably no reason to stay away.

Nope - these deviled eggs were made by me.  And I live alone in a 100% gluten-free apartment.  :)

Lucky you!  I can only eat eggs baked in something.  Hey, at least I got that back!  But that's another thread……Ha! :D Enjoy that Miracle Whip!

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
