As of 11/04 Ocean Spray Whole Berry and Jelly Cranberry were gluten-free. You might want to check the labels to see if they still are.

As of 3/05 Safeway Whole Berry and Jelly Cranberry were gluten-free.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Definitely make it from scratch - so much better!

1 lb cranberries, 1/2 to 1 1/2 cup sugar (depending on your tastes), and liquid. I've used orange juice, water, and pomegranate juice. This year, apple juice and some diced, peeled apples. It simmers for about an hour (the berries all pop and it thickens), but it's so much better than canned!

I agree with the homemade cranberry sauce thing... I make it so its not that clear jelly thing, its got visable pieces of cranberry in it. I add a little orange zest and orange juice and every year people rave about it. The best thing about it is that you shouldn't make it on the "hectic" day. Its best if made a day or two before hand.

i agree with homemade--really easy... i made it on sunday night--and went with the orange zest and some of the fresh juice too.

It's not "jelled" like jelly (as in translucent), but is a jam-like consistency. And it really doesn't add to the headaches in the cooking, as long as you have an extra burner, 'cause really, all you need to do, it stir every once in a while when you pass by. Other than that, it sits there for an hour, after you take 90 seconds to fill it up. :-) But making it the day before also works, espeically if you prefer it cold.

Tiffany, what brand of pomegranate juice do you use? I've been meaning to call POM to see if they are gluten-free, just never got around to it. Thanks!

I believe they are gluten-free, but I used pomegranate juice from Trader Joe's.

Definately agree with making it from scratch. It is actually very easy, tastes so much better, and I love the way it makes my house smell!

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies. Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
