I already know the spiel on high fructose corn syrup as I never eat or drink anything with those high contents of ingredients normally just stick to water when I drink. But I have a bout of the stomach flu and needed something besides water vernors had always helped me in the past does anyone know if this is gluten free. Same with Gatorade that's gluten-free? Just need something quick and convienent to drink.

I haven’t heard of Vernors.  But, in the US, Gatorade is gluten-free.  Most all soda pops are, too

I just looked it up on Target and it listed ingredients- looks like any other soda.  No gluten ingredients  listed.

Look at your own can and read the ingredients?  I have only seen actual Gluten in a soda once - that was a specialty craft soda with barley syrup/ malt in it.  There would be no reason to add wheat- but it would need to be labeled as wheat in the US

Yeah ditto, only ever seen gluten in these crazy craft soda in a specialty store and one case on a special edition Pepsi that used barley malt for a flavoring. On a side note I like to make my beverage, with tea blends and water flavor enhancers. -_- I can not drink a bubbly soda anymore just messes with me, >. > Though I do some times get a zevia stevia soda and crack it up and let it go flat for a few days before enjoying the soda flavor, but vs price I just turned to using sweet drops water enhancers and sweeteners like stevia, monk fruit, and sucrose.

We love Vernors and bring it home when we visit Michigan.  I hoard it in the basement for any stomach issues that pop up. My son and I (both Celiac) have never had a problem with it.  Instead of gatoraide, consider coconut water to replenish fluids and electrolytes.  Does a better job and no chemicals or dyes.  Not coconut milk .  Coconut water.  They sell it plain and flavored.

I just got off the phone with customer relations at Dr Pepper/Snapple. They told me that while the caramel color comes from corn that Vernors and Diet Vernors are NOT Gluten Free

Because?    They don’t test?  Most soda companies don’t test. & the lawyers tell them not to say gluten-free?   That would add to the  cost for everyone .  

 

On the website , I looked at ginger ale and it specifically says it contains no gluten

      New labs are now very elevated

      Hello, I was very stick, with flu like symptoms, but my virus panel came back negative and we couldn’t figure out what’s going on. The doctor then added a celiac panel. Has anyone ever had such a dramatic change? What are the odds this is true celiac I am going to have an endoscopy, but it’s expensive and I just feel like why can’t the labs be enough?...

      This kind of question is always difficult to give a definitive answer to because of so many variables. One such variable is the sensitivity of the individual celiac to small amounts of gluten cross contamination. An amount that causes a reaction in one celiac many not in another, or at least not be discernable which, of course, does not exactly equate to...

      I see that Cracker Barrel restaurants have a gluten free menu (not all locations, but one confirmed that they do). I was wondering if it is safe for my 5 year old son with celiac disease?
