Which Seasoning Brand Do You Use?

Hi, we use Lawry's Season Salt. They told us that they "believe" it is gluten-free. I'm not sure, but I think this could be what is secretly glutening my kids and I'd like to make a change to test it.

Can anyone recommend a good, gluten-free seasoning?

Thanks!

I'm afraid of the spice mixes. I buy individual McCormack spices and mix them up according to what I'm making.

I just bought this stuff from my co-op called "Seasoning" made by Lydia's Organics in California. It's weird, but it tastes good. It contains: dehydrated carrots, celery, parsley, sprouted seeds (sunflower, almond, flax) herbs, and himalayan crystal salt. She says it's all organic and all gluten, sugar, and oil free. She also makes cereal and crackers are bars. Mind you, the stuff costs an arm and a leg -- I'm always a sucker for packaging. Anyway, just had it on my salmon burger and it was pretty good. It's 5.79 for a pretty large package (has no amount on it).

website is: www.lydiasorganics.com

I'm not to brand specific when it comes to seasonings but I won't use mixed seasonings and always read ingredients. I'll use straight garlic powder, salt, pepper, ect. But never anything that is a seasoning mix. The only brand I would probably trust if I was going to do that is McCormick.

Hey Molly, you are at it again. You need to take the Barry Bonds thing out below the new avitar. Like the legs. I know they are not real tatoo's - bored were you LOL?

I also buy seasoning blends from The Gluten Free Pantry. I really like them for the appropriate cooking.

I sprinkle Gluten Free Pantry Chicken Flavor Broth Mix on veggies or rice. It gives them a nice flavoring.

I used to use Lawrys Season Salt on EVERYTHING.. It made my daughter sick.

I now use Mrs. Dash (love that stuff), McCormicks Garlic Powder, Salt and Pepper. I also have tried Gluten Free Pantrys Taco Seasoning and it was fine.

I pretty much use Mrs. Dash for everything. I do need to find a good chili seasoning. My very favorite was French's Chili-O plus some packets of Taco Bell fire sauce for spice. TB sauce is gluten-free, but French's is definitely not.

I get several of the Gluten Free Pantry spice mixes... I also mostly use Simply Organic spices... and for other things I stick with McCormicks and always read the label because McCormicks will disclose wheat on the label.

Lawry's is different in Canada and the US. If my understanding is correct, the Canadian version is gluten-free, but the US version has barley in the flavors. **Edited: I was wrong. It is gluten-free**

Ingredient lists:

USA: Salt, sugar, spices (including paprika and turmeric), onion, cornstarch, garlic, tricalcium phosphate (prevents caking), paprika oleoresin (for color), natural flavor, soy lecithin.

Canada: Salt, sugar, spices, dehydrated onions and garlic, corn starch, tricalcium phosphate, soybean oil, herbs, soy lecithin and sulphites.

In Canada, call 1-800-565-7273; in the US 1-800-952-9797. The last I knew, the Canadian claim was that it was ok, but it has been quite a while since I checked (a 450g package lasts a long time around here).

I use and sell Epicure Selections, they are only in Canada. Everything they make all dips, seasonings, rubs, extracts, popcorn seasonings,chocolate, coffee toppers etc., are gluten-free except for the Bacon, chives and cheese dip and the sushi kit. I eat them all the time and no problems.

I always use separately purchased spices, though sometimes I mix some myself. My mother never buys spices separately. When I wanted to sprinkle pepper on something at the table, she didn't have any, just lots of bottles of "seasoning blends".

I also buy individual herbs. (I usually purchase Spice Hunter or Simply Organic as well, though I'll get McCormick if I can't get those or dry my own.) I do have premixed blends for chili powder (as that's a blend), curry seasoning (as that's a blend), and garlic salt (for table use).

Yeah, Himalayan pink salt is the same. You'll go broke eating it, but it's yummy and nutritious.

Wow, Peter. Are you sure of this? We'd called them before and they said gluten-free, but hey, something's making my son sick, and if you have inside info, then great...I'll just use something else.

      Ski trip with Celiac son - preparation advice please

We're going to the same hotel we went last year. The trip is non refundable so now I'm already starting to think how we will do this. I've contacted...

      Thank you for the article Scott. It was very informative. I didn’t realize I should have been eating a certain amount of gluten prior to the test. I only eat bread maybe 1x a week, don’t eat cereal. Pasta occasionally. I’m sure there is gluten in nearly everything, so I’ve had gluten but no idea how much, but definitely not slices of bread.

      It sounds like you're navigating a lot right now, and it’s good that you’re being proactive about your health given your family history and symptoms. Based on the results you shared, the elevated IgA Gliadin and IgG Gliadin antibody levels could indicate an immune response to gluten, which may suggest celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. However, your tis...

      Ski trip with Celiac son - preparation advice please

      By Kathleen JJ · Posted

      Hi all,  Two weeks ago we learned our 7 your old has Celiacs and we are of course finding our way in his diet. However, we booked a skitrip a few months ago that will take place in February. We're going to the same hotel we went last year. The trip is non refundable so now I'm already starting to think how we will do this.   I've contacted the organization who was really really understanding and supportive. They've worked with this hotel for many years and the hotel (and restaurant of course) is prepared to do what they can. Storing and heating/preparing food that we bring is not a problem for them (which is already a huge relief) nor is providing fruits and vegetables (cucumber fi) to put in a lunch box as he will not be able to eat in the restaurants on the slopes. I checked, the ski area has 3 restaurants that offer gluten free options, but he is only 7 and with 7 year old's there's always the additional hurdle of 'yuk, I don't like the sight/taste/smell of it or I don't know it so I won't eat it' factor the consider 🙄. So we'll pack a lunch for him to take. [side question: if there should be an accidental intake and he gets a reaction, how strongly do we have to expect this: will he poo his pants? Will he be able to hold till he gets to the toilet at the end of the slope? Will he be able to still stand or will the pain make him having to lie down? We had the diagnosis rather by accident so have no experience with 'normal' symptoms or how violent they are and we would like to inform the ski instructors]   He loves oatmeal and we will bring gluten-free oatmeal for breakfast so that will be covered too, but for diners I'm already worried.    So my question is: Do you have tips for childproof gluten-free meals that could be easily heated or prepared in the hotel without risk of contamination?   Thank you for your reactions... Kathleen

To me it seems logical that with no gluten coming in, eventually your skin would run out of gluten for the iodine to attack.  One of iodines functions is to break down defective cells to make room for new cells.

Unless your doctor has an answer to your health issues, once you've pursued a diagnosis to your satisfaction I would suggest a trial period of gluten free.  In the meatime,  Mayo Clinic research indicates a first degree relative of a diagnosed Celiac is 42% likely to also be Celiac. Dermatitis herpetiformis causes itchy bumps and burning blisters as a result of a gluten sensitivity that makes your immune system overreact.  Are You Confused About Your Celiac Disease Lab Results?

      It sounds like you're navigating a lot right now, and it’s good that you’re being proactive about your health given your family history and symptoms. Based on the results you shared, the elevated IgA Gliadin and IgG Gliadin antibody levels could indicate an immune response to gluten, which may suggest celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. However, your tissue transglutaminase IgG (tTG-IgG) result is within the normal range, and your total IgA level is sufficient, meaning the test was likely accurate. While these results might point towards celiac disease, the diagnosis often requires further interpretation by your doctor, especially in light of your symptoms and family history. Your doctor may recommend an endoscopy with a biopsy to confirm the diagnosis, as blood tests alone are not always definitive. In the meantime, you might want to avoid making dietary changes until you discuss the results with your healthcare provider, as going gluten-free before further testing can interfere with an accurate diagnosis. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. This section covers your two positive results: DGP-IgA and DGP-IgG (Deamidated Gliadin Peptide)
