Are these safe? No gluten ingredients, but apparently they are produced on shared lines. I've been using them and wonder if I should be. Thanks

Thanks mamaw...I use them too...The shared lines idea is bothering me though. Just not sure what to think.

When  one  limits  there  gluten-free  products  to only  products  made  in a dedicated  facility it  does  limit  the  gluten-free  choices. I do like  or  wish  they all  had  dedicated  machinery   /processing  but  that  just does not  happen.... there are  people  who are  super-sensitive who  MUST  do this....

I do agree...and really don't want to limit my food choices any more.

How do you know that the the chili powder is run on shared lines with some sort of flour/ gluten?

I don't know that it is for sure. The statements I've read from them indicate that shared lines are used and a thorough cleaning is done. I just wonder if it's enough. I'm not saying they aren't safe...I'm trying to find out if they are. They say they will list any gluten on the ingredient list...I'm just wondering if it's shared lines...is that ok? Do other people use them safely or have issues?

I feel it is important to note that post is five years old and information may have changed since then.  Honestly information 5 years old on manufacturing processes that pre-date the FDA gluten guidelines has more than likely changed.  I recommend writing the company to ask about any shared lines, etc so you can get updated information.

 

However, Mccormick is used by many on this forum and is considered to be safe, and they always label any gluten source on their products Open Original Shared Link.  I feel no need to investigate further, my cabinet is filled with Mccormick spices.

I hear you Laura. I've been using them. I was buying chili powder yesterday and decided to check to make sure. I couldn't come up with anything that said it was...but saw a couple of things about shared lines. The posts were old...true. I will contact McCormick. Thanks

I just found McCormick Gluten Free Chili mix at my local store last week.  It says it is a NEW item and gluten free specifically on the package and makes no mention of shared equipment.  They also make a new gluten free taco mix and brown gravy mix. 

 

I tried it a few days ago and it was great!  It was even a bit spicier than my old chili mix.  Didn't have any problems from it al all.

      Dried Chickpeas

      Hello, @Aretaeus Cappadocia, My favorite source of B12 is liver. 😺 I react to nutritional yeast the same way as if I were glutened. Casein, a protein in dairy, and nutritional yeast have protein segments that match certain antigenic protein segments in gluten. The proteins in rice, corn (maize), and chicken meat have them as well. Some pe...

      Confused about HLA-DQ Celiac gene test result

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @ainsleydale1700! First, it is very unlikely, given your genetic results, that you have celiac disease. But it is not a slam dunk. Second, there are some other reasons besides having celiac disease that your blood antibody testing was positive. There are some diseases, some medications and even (for some people...

      Confused about HLA-DQ Celiac gene test result

      HLA testing can definitely be confusing. Classic celiac disease risk is most strongly associated with having the full HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8 heterodimer, which requires specific DQA1 and DQB1 genes working together. Your report shows you are negative for the common DQ2 and DQ8 combinations, but positive for DQB102, which is one component of the DQ2 pair. On its...

      Dried Chickpeas

      I agree with your post and have had similar experiences. I'm commenting to add the suggestion of also using nutritional yeast as a supplement. It's a rich source of B vitamins and other nutrients, and some brands are further supplemented with additional B12. I sprinkle a modest amount in a variety of savory recipes.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @ainsleydale1700! First, it is very unlikely, given your genetic results, that you have celiac disease. But it is not a slam dunk. Second, there are some other reasons besides having celiac disease that your blood antibody testing was positive. There are some diseases, some medications and even (for some people) some foods (dairy, the protein "casein") that can cause elevated celiac blood antibody test scores. Usually, the other causes don't produce marginally high test scores and not super high ones. Having said that, by far, the most common reason for elevated tTG-IGA celiac antibody test scores (this is the most common test ordered by doctors when checking for celiac disease) is celiac disease itself. Please post back and list all celiac blood antibody tests that were done with their scores and with their reference ranges. Without the reference ranges for negative vs. positive we can't tell much because they vary from lab to lab. Third, and this is an terrible bum steer by your doc, for the biopsy results to be valid, you need to have been eating generous amounts of gluten up to the day of the procedure for several weeks.  Having said all that, it sounds most likely that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. The two share many common symptoms but NCGS is not autoimmune in nature and doesn't damage the lining of the small bowel. What symptoms do you have? Do you have any blood work that is out of norm like iron deficiency that would suggest celiac disease?

      HLA testing can definitely be confusing. Classic celiac disease risk is most strongly associated with having the full HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8 heterodimer, which requires specific DQA1 and DQB1 genes working together. Your report shows you are negative for the common DQ2 and DQ8 combinations, but positive for DQB102, which is one component of the DQ2 pair. On its own, DQB102 does not usually form the full DQ2 molecule most strongly linked to celiac disease, which is likely why your doctor said you do not carry the typical “celiac genes.” However, genetics are only part of the picture. A negative gene test makes celiac disease much less likely, but not absolutely impossible in rare cases. More importantly, both antibody testing and biopsy are only reliable when someone is actively eating gluten; being gluten-free for four years before testing can cause both bloodwork and intestinal biopsy to appear falsely negative. Given your positive antibodies and ongoing symptoms, it may be reasonable to seek clarification from a gastroenterologist experienced in celiac disease about whether proper gluten exposure was done before testing and whether additional evaluation is needed.
