Pre-Packaged Guacamole

Is Whole Foods packaged guacamole gluten free? It doesn't have any gluten ingredients but its packaged on site. Wegmans labels their packaged on site guac as contianing possible cc from the way its packaged (presumably in a kitchen with people packaging loads of other things) but Whole Foods doesn't have a similar label. 

 

Thoughts?

It is my understand that nothing packaged on site at Whole Foods is guaranteed to be free from gluten CC. Whole Foods has a sign on their salad bar stating that they are regrettably unable to offer any completely gluten free options.

aw dang, that's what I suspected but I bought it hoping otherwise lol. I'm going to put it into the fridge at work with a "free" sign on it.

Most grocery store guacamoles are going to come with a warning about CC when asked.  You just have to ask some questions about where it is prepared.  Texas must be a guacamole loving place, because our grocery store has a little area in the produce section just for guac and their fresh squeezed juices, so no CC going on there.  If it were made in the bakery area or with lots of things in the Deli, buyer beware.  Guacamole isn't too hard to make yourself, but I buy it premade because once you buy all of the ingredients they don't seem to balance out unless you make a huge quantity.  Lots of the packaged ones made by different companies available in the refrigerated section are gluten-free, but they just aren't as good as fresh made.

I avoid salad bars and prepackaged things like that come from the grocery. However Holy Guacamole does make gluten free guacamole that is amazing try looking into them.

I second the wholly guacomole recommendation. It's almost as good as fresh, and comes in individual packs that are easy to take to work. It's also labeled gluten free.

I normally buy wholly guacamole but I just happened to be out while near a whole foods and they didn't have any (at least not that I could find). Thanks for all of the replies!

Just want to update you all on WHOLLY GUACAMOLE. As of 2018, this food is no longer gluten free. I ate it last night and again today to be sure and have been VERY sick with gluten reactions all day. :(

 

I advise you all to stay away. Please also let me hear your current experiences with this product. (I am thinking its the vinegar)

I bought it not long ago and it says gluten-free on it.  I can't imagine how it would contain gluten.  I eat it with no issues.

 

it a unlikely they would use malt vinegar.  If they do, they would list malt vinegar.  There is a legal definition of plain vinegar and it is NOT malt vinegar

      Celiac symptoms but negative endoscopy and antibody test + family history of gastro problems

      By NoriTori · Posted

      @Scott Adams  Sure, Any and all information is welcome. Also the only was to convince my family to get tested is to get tested myself and conclusive answers. Very stubborn lot.

      Understood. It's very anxiety-provoking when you don't know what you are dealing with and don't know if you are attacking it correctly.

      Blood results

      By Heatherisle · Posted

      I have heard of NCGS, but everything is just so confusing!!! Just unsure of things as her EMA test was negative but TTG was positive @19u/ml(lab range 0.0-7.0).Apparently she also has occasional bubble like blisters in between her fingers, don’t know if that’s significant. She is triallling gluten free as suggested by the gastroenterologist after her endoscopy. Keep getting different answers when typing in her symptoms etc. Some sites say it can be possible to have coeliac, even with a negative EMA . It’s so frustrating and her anxiety levels are through the roof. I know she’s hoping it’s coeliac which is weird I know!!! But if it’s not it just means more tests. Sorry to ramble on!!!

      Rice Flakes

      By sillyac58 · Posted

      I ame looking for rice flakes that aren't cross contaminated to use in making oat free granola. Does anyone know of a brand? Also I see that some people just used puffed rice cereal, but it seems like that wouldn't be sturdy enough to withstand the mixing without crumbling. Any ideas out there? Thanks!

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      There isn't because there is currently no gluten-free labeling requirement for prescription medications. You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
