Timing

[Yvonne Casey]

I have a question for my longtime Celiac people….if by chance you go out to dinner at a restaurant and you’re as careful as possible, but somewhere along the line there was cross contamination; how soon do you get sick or have effects from it?  Is it possible for it to hit you the next day?

First, you never defined the amount of cross contamination.   Reactions may vary widely amongst us.  I happen to have DH too and it's not very forgiving.   A small serving of Hunts Ketchup can cause a rash on me that may last days or weeks.  My observation is that we all may react different.

I agree that reactions vary so much from person to person that you likely won't be able to find two people who are just alike.

I've never heard that Hunts Ketchup contains any gluten...on their web site there are no gluten ingredients, and there are none of the top 8 allergens (milk, peanuts, eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat):

Scott, I have DH and it cost me two visits to my Dermatologist, one in Florida and one in Maryland.  I broke out in Maryland just before driving down to my new home in Florida and made an appointment with my Dermatologist there.  By the time I was seen the rash was clearing up.  I returned to Maryland 2 weeks later and the rash broke out again. I made an appointment at my Maryland Dermatologist who diagnosed me with DH in 2009.  On the way to my appointment, I was talking to my daughter telling her the only food difference was the Hunts Ketchup in Maryland and Heintz Ketchup in Florida.  My daughter looked up Hunts Ketchup and found the following.   FYI, is hunt's 100 natural ketchup gluten free - Google Search  Instead, the company states that all varieties of Hunt's ketchup "do not contain added gluten," but aren't tested to see if they're legally gluten-free. In addition, the vinegar used to make Hunt's ketchup can be derived from gluten grains (primarily wheat).Mar 9, 2022
