I bought Spicely Organics Chili powder from Whole Foods in Bellevue, WA.  I got very sick after eating it, so I tested it with three separate gluten tests.  They all came up positive for >10ppm, which is what their "certification" says they test below.  

I just wanted to warn everyone away from them.  They clearly have quality control problems and are not safe for celiacs.

Get me the manufacturing date, and lot number on this please. I know some people in the company and will forward this to them. I am also notifying them of this thread. They are the only brand I use for spices and have not had ANY issues in over 4 years of using their spices.

What type of test did you use?

Did you eliminate everything else that you ate as being the source of your glutening?  Could it have been something that you ate before using this spice?

I used Open Original Shared Link.  I tested each ingredient and the Chili Powder was the only one that came up positive (three times).  

I couldn't find a manufacturing date.

The Lot Number:

      Dermatitis Herpetiformis - follow up dermatology appointment coming up

      Hi Trents, its a very English thing....there's red sauce (ketchup) and brown sauce, more spicy. People tend to be one or the other. Both usually have malt vinegar in them, so both a no-no for us, unless you hunt for a specified gluten-free make. Hi Belle, Any meat which has been processed is likely to have cereal in it. If someone is having a BBQ,...

      Brown sauce? What's that about? What does the color have to do with anything?

      Dermatitis Herpetiformis - follow up dermatology appointment coming up

      Hi @suek54 Good point. I hesitated over what to choose to eat - there were burgers and sausages and I knew that each came with potential wheat possibility. It was my friend who was cooking the BBQ at a local event. It's so tricky, isn't it? I ended up going for the burger and stupidly didn't think about the brown sauce but knew something gluten-containing...

      Dermatitis Herpetiformis - follow up dermatology appointment coming up

      Hi Belle Oops! Can you eat burgers OK? So many of them have added cereal to pad them out. Hope the after-effects are not too bad? I'm OK. Here in SE UK we are having a mini heatwave. 35° today. Keeping cool as much as possible to prevent itching from the heat. Otherwise not too bad thanks. Dapsone 100mg proving much better than 50mg....

      How is everyone? I made a silly mistake and chose HP (brown) sauce on my burger at a BBQ at the weekend. Hope everyone is okay.

      Hi Trents, its a very English thing....there's red sauce (ketchup) and brown sauce, more spicy. People tend to be one or the other. Both usually have malt vinegar in them, so both a no-no for us,  unless you hunt for a specified gluten-free make.  Hi Belle, Any meat which has been processed is likely to have cereal in it. If someone is having a BBQ, maybe take a small steak, lamb chop or piece of salmon for yourself. something which has had no processing at all.  No-one will mind, just leave it on a piece of foil so that it doesn't share space with gluten-containing foods.  Avoid all dressings, except olive oil, though again you could always take your own gluten-free version. It sure is a steep learning curve but I'm getting my head round it now.  Sue

      Hi @suek54 Good point. I hesitated over what to choose to eat - there were burgers and sausages and I knew that each came with potential wheat possibility. It was my friend who was cooking the BBQ at a local event. It's so tricky, isn't it? I ended up going for the burger and stupidly didn't think about the brown sauce but knew something gluten-containing had been consumed as my legs were itching all over for hours when I went to bed on Sunday. Arrgh!  Actually, my initial thought was corn on the cob as I had that too... and it grows near wheat. Could it also have been that? Are you able to eat that?  I agree with you about the heat, I am finding it tricky too especially at night. I have had 3 itchy nights in a row and am at this point thinking I was silly not to ask about Dapsone at my derm appointment but maybe things will calm down now I am back on being more in control of my food. I also have some more topical steroid coming and that does keep it under control. I plan to visit my son in Scotland for a few days in July so am going to see how things go for a few weeks and if the itch does not calm again, I will do an e-consult with my GP and request Dapsone to try (or something that might just help a bit over that holiday, or longer term). I really don't relish the thought of being in Itch Hell on holiday, just want to enjoy seeing my son and his girlfriend.  So pleased to read that you are feeling more comfortable on the higher dose. I am really pleased for you and long may it continue for you.

Here in SE UK we are having a mini heatwave. 35° today. Keeping cool as much as possible to prevent itching from the heat. Otherwise not too bad thanks. Dapsone 100mg proving much better than 50mg. Still a few itchy patches but no spots as such. Making life easier.  How are you generally (when not eating brown sauce)? Sue
