Latest new item that is gluten free

A kind friend bought me a box of Gluten Free Hard Seltzer called WHITE CLAW.  It is labelled Gluten Free right on the front of the cans, and  it calls itself a spiked sparklng water with a hint of strawberry, and it says Alcohol as one of the gredients. One can is 100 calories for the 12 fluid ounces. 2 grams of carbs., natural flavorings, juice concentrate and the box of eight. The cans are quite slim with pull tabs. 20mg of sodium, the 2 grams are sugar. So it is spiked sparkling water with a hint of.... strawberry, peach, watermelon, etc.  It was kind of my friend but I don't drink any liquor, but it is nice to know that there is not just Barlett and James that is gluten free. It is less expensive than Barlett and James apparently and since it is labelled gluten free on the front and the back of the can you can consider it safe to drink.

If you only knew how fortunate you are to be living in the United States where they label everything from soup to nuts as they say. We in Canada need a Senator Ryan to have someone on our side. Peanut allergies have been listed for a long time, but not gluten allergies which can be significant for many brittle celiacs.  I consider myself half American because we own a Summer home here in the good old U.S.A., and apparently my mother's grandmother was an American. We are where we are staying right now for the fourth of July tonight. We in Canada have just (Finally) got to the point where our government has decided to list all the carbs. and nutritional sections of each food item.  So, may I say, on this celebration of Independence Day, God Bless America. It may not be perfect but it is truly the "Land of the Free". Yes, some screw it up, but pay they do. Unfortuanately others pay for their deficiencies too.

      Thanks so much Scott. I would be incredibly grateful to the gluten gods if eliminating oats was the magic cure. In the meantime, it's nice to have moral support!

      Understood. And don't beat yourself up about this. Many are in the same boat as you, having experimented with the gluten-free diet before getting formerly tested. It is a logical, common sense approach when you don't have the knowledge about how testing works or you don't have the healthcare resources to afford testing. And some experience such severe reactions to gluten that it is impossible to get through the gluten challenge in order to get tested. So, they must live with the ambiguity of not knowing for sure if they suffer from celiac disease or NCGS. But at the end of the day, the antidote is the same for both. Namely, life-ling abstinence from gluten. Recently there was an article on posted on this forum about the develop of a new testing method for diagnosing celiac disease that do not require a gluten challenge. It is still in the developmental stage and probably years away from becoming main streams even if it pans out. But there is hope at least.

      Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:
