Thanks for the info. I love it when a company has either gluten free or the allergens listed. My eyes get so tired of reading tiny print on label after label after label..... (for those in the right area, Kroger's soy is also gluten free)

I have found several items at Wal-Mart lately also that specified gluten free on the label. One of them was some salsa in the refrigerated section of the deli. It sure does make you feel good to see it spelled out doesn't it. :D

WalMart has made it known that of it's 1200 Great Valu products, over 900 were going to be eventually gluten-free and it would be stated on the packaging. What a smart move on their part. LaChoy soy sauce is also gluten-free, FYI. I know that there are a group of people that would not go near a WalMart, but for me that isn't the case. I love to shop there and will be checking packaging when I do.

Be careful of Walmart's Great Value brand. When my daughter Kailyn reacted to their yogurts they told me they could confirm or deny whether the yogurts contained gluten...I even talked to the corporate office!!! Outrageous.

Canadians need not look for the new labelling. According the the manager of the 10 food aisles at my Walmart, this is a U.S. thing only.

Kailynsmom,

Did the yogurt actually say gluten-free and then they would not confirm or deny if it was gluten-free or not? It is not clear if their yogurt said it or not.

      It is more likely code for “we think there really was a good response to the treatment, but it was small or in a small percent of subjects so it would take a large clinical trial to try to prove it.”

      Thank you so much for your replies. Luckily the rash went away when I completely swore off gluten. It took several months but I have not had a flare in months. So a biopsy is no longer possible. The itch was terrible and apart from bleaching my skin the steroid lotions and potions did nothing. The Gliadin is for accidents and shall be a part of my travel kit from now on. This past exposure has made a me a little leery about eating anything that was not cooked in my kitchen or a dedicated gluten-free restaurant. As much as I used to love baked goods, I am cured and have become quite the gluten free baker to the point that friends and family forget that my cakes/cookies/and bread are not "real". I guess I will have to wait for the new blood test to come out to get confirmation but I have a suspicion that the rash was dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill

      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:
