A1 Sauce

[momandgirls]

Does anyone know if A1 sauce is gluten free? Thanks!

I don't believe it is safe for us.

I couldn't find it on any gluten-free lists, which leads me to believe it contains gluten.

A1 is NOT listed on any of the Gluten Free lists i have. this is so dissappointing... I even checked out the comparable Walmart Great Value brand version - doesn't say gluten free (how exciting is it that Great Value now lists gluten-free on the label!!!). I think wheat was listed in the ingredients.

I know Lea and Perrins Steak Sauce is gluten-free!

Although I think A1 is a kraft product, it should state clearly on the label if there is any wheat or barley in it.

I am a big Walmart shopper (I'm a poor child! LOL) and I used to buy alot of the Great Value brands until I heard to be careful with generics. Do you mean they actual say "gluten free" now or do they just show on the labels if it has wheat etc in it? This is great news! I had called Kraft's 800 number and asked them if A1 had gluten and they told me that the label will specify if it has wheat, etc. in it if it was in fact in there. I just bought some and didn't see any wheat items listed in the ingredients unless it is hidden (Kraft told me they no longer hide gluten ingredients and that they will list them). I hope it's safe. I love A1. Now I'm a little scared to try it....

As far as I know, A1 is gluten-free. It is a kraft product and there are no gluten sources listed on the label. I personally eat it fairly frequently and have never had a reaction.

Thank you for your replies - I didn't see anything suspicious on the ingredient list and I know you all say that Kraft is good about not hiding wheat ingredients - but I just wanted to make sure. My daughter loves A1 so I hate to take that away from her if I don't have to...

I'm not sure why there is so much confusion over A1. I've seen several postings lately that stated it was not gluten-free. It is a Kraft product, and there is no gluten on the label, so it is safe. I checked my own bottle last night too for the hell of it. I don't think many Kraft products seem to end up on gluten-free food lists--not b/c they aren't gluten-free, but b/c their policy is always to refer to the label, not to publish an official gluten-free food listing.

YES! they actually put GLUTEN FREE on the label! It's on their pudding mixes, sloppy joe sauce, a bunch of stuff. So exciting isnt it??
