i'm new to this forum so i'm not sure if this topic has been reviewed before or not, but i'm really confused on the issue of vinegar. i've heard from some people that it's ok as long as it's distilled, but then others say it's ok whether it's distilled or not. it's a pretty big deal since it's in alot of things, i was just wondering if anyone knew for sure. thanks!

I have encounted the same problems. I read one place that it must be distilled, and other places it's ok as long as it is not MALT vinegar. I know for a fact MALT vinegar is BAD. But..could someone shed some light on the subject? I would say it's always safe to have regular distilled vinegar, and I read that Heinz white vinegar is safe.

from what i know, anything that says "vinegar" means distilled vinegar and it is safe.

I use heinz vinegar and have never had any probs.

So if you see just "vinegar" on a label it is safe, according to the FDA.

You are correct-malt vinegar is not safe.

*however, i do believe there are some people who still have problems with vinegar.

I also thought it had to say distilled, thats what someone told me too. I was scared to eat my relish because it just says vinegar

Vlasic pickles and relish are always ok. Got to go eat my chicken wings now. Yum...

I'm not sure, but I think that most vinegars are distilled and therefore they are gluten-free. However, I can't tolerate white vinegar. For some reason it makes me feel "glutened". I stick to products that are made from apple cider vinegar and seem to be OK. Everyone is different though.

Heinz vinager is made distilled from corn, I have never had a problem with it. Many don't react to distilled wheat vinager but some do. My family reacts to distilled grains in vinager and in alcohol. Many will not have any problems but for some reason we get a gluten reaction. I don't know if this is because we were all so very, very sick before diagnosis or because we have DH also.

Even though distilled white vinegar is gluten-free, I've found that I don't tolerate it well. Not sure why. For this reason, I avoid products that have "vinegar" or "distilled vinegar" as an ingredient. I have no problems with balsamic vinegar and apple cider vinegar.

      Oh yes I can understand the tiredness after going threw all that, must be exhausting especially on the mind I have high aniexty so I can understand that , I wish there more easier ways for people to get help , I had a MRI on my spine some years ago without anything it was really quick and no prep , I understand the need for  them to see better with the bowel ,but you think they would use something a little less traumatic  for ibd sufferers on the bowels by now ,I hope your feeling better today 🙏

      I wonder if tingling burning feet are part of it.. I'm not sure if it's the med reaction that people with gluten intolerance get or the food we ate  It's frustrating because a person who did not want to admit to himself I had this condition wanted me to eat this chicken sandwich and now I'm stuck with a variety of symptoms plus now I'm hungry on top of it..  I'm new to this so I forget that "one bite" of the wrong thing can hurt us.😔. Do we stop eating if someone exposed us to gluten ??  My stomach is rumbling but my joints hurt ...  It's weird because I can feel the anxiety coming on.  I get joint problems ,  I don't know if anyone ever got hot flashes?? I suppose if it affects people head to toes you can get that too.   It's weird...hard to decipher what is what.   Also how long do I have to deal with this attack??  Makes me feel like not getting up out of bed.  I get too many symptoms which  horrible.  Thank you for your response..

      as my last post stated, i was diagnosed via endoscopy on the 14th of june. i have been eating amazing home cooked meals, luckily, mainly cooked by my boyfriend who is extremely careful about contamination (and is an incredible cook at that). however, i find myself in a mental rut still. being 18, this is the time in my life where i should be exploring things, going out, having fun. yet every corner i turn i'm tortured by the amazing smell of something i can't have anymore. the wonderful sight of such yummy foods. it's near torture. if my boyfriend and his friend who lives with us buy something i can't have, they'll usually eat it outside of the house or the car or wherever we are - which is greatly appreciated - but even seeing a burger or chips or a sausage roll in their hands guts me almost beyond repair. i just wanna have it again too. i miss it. i feel left out and it makes me very sad all the time. it's not their fault. they are allowed to eat whatever they want to, whatever their intestines will allow. it just stings, bad. and i feel so ungrateful given i basically have a private chef who is doubly the love of my life. but it's just so hard. i know i'll adapt. i haven't given up hope.i just wanted to vent. thank you for reading

      Thank you. I must have misinterpreted a study or something. Thank you for the clarification. Much appreciated. Almost three years into my celiac diagnosis and I'm still learning new things.
