The following is an email from Cineplex Odeon Theatres (Canada) in response to my question about the "natural flavours and spices" on the ingredient list on the bag of popcorn salt. There was no allergy info provided with the salt. The young man at the concession was great, got me the allergy info for the butter and topping and when he couldn't find an info sheet for the salt, he brought me the 10kg bag that had the ingredient list on. Then he directed me to the manager to get more information, and she said, "If I were you, I just wouldn't eat the popcorn."

Hello,

Thank you for contacting us here at Cineplex Entertainment. First and foremost, I would like to apologize for the late reply. However, with your e-mail, we wanted to get the proper amount of information before we contacted you.

On your behalf, we spent quite a bit of time trying to determine what constituted the vague ingredient list of our popping salt. According to the company who supplies the product, “Natural spice extracts” include: Annatto and Turmeric.

Further, here is a list of ingredient categories.

INGREDIENT CATEGORY YES NO INGREDIENT CATEGORY YES NO

Animal Fat & Oils X Nuts X

Wheat Product X Seeds X

Milk Product X Fish & Shellfish X

Egg Product X Sulphites X

Soy Product X Tartrazine X

Corn Product X MSG X

Peanuts X

(I don't think the table I made will work according to the post preview, so I will say that they are all NOs, except a YES for Tartrazine)

From what little I know of gluten, I believe this would indicate that the popping salt is safe for consumption. I realize that your e-mail also had a suggestion about posting this, and other nutritional information, and I will pass this suggestion on to our marketing department, however, I wanted to send this to you for your own personal information.

If you require any further information on this product, please do not hesitate to write me. Thank you again for your suggestion, and take care.

Regards,

Ed Staples

      Gluten Sensitivity

      By The Logician · Posted

      To Trent’s, yes, from what i’ve read it is not uncommon for digestive systems to become less tolerant to gluten over time. Many types of sensitivity or allergies arise in older people who never had a problem. I don’t see why you are focusing on anything but the fact that after years of my sensitivity to gluten, for whatever reason , it has disappeared after a bout of antibiotics. What i’ve read is antibiotics can make gluten sensitivity worse. In any event, in my case, if I can still eat all the wheat products I want with no reaction after a month or more since my hospital stay this is something that should be investigated. Time will tell.

      Gluten Sensitivity

      I had a UTI, blood cultures are standard to insure that the infection does not get in the bloodstream which can lead to sepsis and death. In my case there was bacteria in my blood which necessitated 48 hours of antibiotic IV

      Finally got in to doctor to get my referral and I lucked out and got into Gastro the same day - question about different transglutaminase results

      Hi Cameo674. just read your post. Well wishes to a correct diagnosis so that you can get on track to healing and feeling better. Personally I know it’s good to have the eosinophilic disorder ruled out too, as this can show anti-ttg igA antibodies too. But usually without the anti-gliadin antibodies unless gliadin is an allergen for you. Thanks for posting the link to look up SNPs rs… numbers on another post. Was useful. Looking at your result, ”Celiac Associated HLD-DQ Typing: DQA1* Value: 05; DQA1*DQA11 Value: 05; DQB1* Value: 02; DQB1-DQB11 Value: 02; Celiac Gene Pairs Present Value: Yes; Celiac HLA Interpretation Value: These genes are permissive for celiac disease.  However, these genes can also be present in the normal population. Testing performed by SSOP.  So google failed me.  I think these results basically say I have genes, but everybody has these genes so this test was just to confirm that there is a vague possibility?  Maybe this test result explains why I do not have the horrible symptoms most individuals with celiac have?  I told the GI my assumption is that I am just gluten intolerant since I do not have the pain? So maybe this test explains why I have antibodies?” To me it reads.that you carry the high risk HLADQ2.5 haplotype.

      Hello. Do you mind saying what symptoms led the doctors to test for bacteria in your blood?

      So you you ate wheat products every single day for 50 years without a problem but then in the 90's you discovered that wheat was your problem. That's confusing to me. It seems contradictory. Did you have a problem or not?
