Ketchup And Vanilla


Fiddle-Faddle

Recommended Posts

Fiddle-Faddle Community Regular

I was at Border's Bookstore today, reading through their (pitiful) selection of books about gluten intolerance and gluten-free cookbooks (which, by the way, are in the ALLERGY section :blink: ). One of the books (sorry, can't remember which one) listed ketchup and vanilla on their list of items with hidden gluten.

I looked at my ketchup bottle when I got home, but didn't see anything I recognized as a gluten source. With vanilla extract, would the alchohol be a problem?

Can anybody shed some light on this? Sorry if I'm being ignorant here.... :unsure:

This is a cookbook with old info, probably written several years ago. We used to be warned about vanilla because of the distilled alcohol used in extraction, but we now know it is not a threat. Same thing with ketchup using distilled vinegar.

There is one common brand of kepchup that is *not* gluten-free--Heinz Organic. Their regular ketchup is fine.

Although I know I'm not supposed to I react to grain alcohols and vinagers. McCormick Vanilla is made with alcohol that is derived from corn and the Heinz Company has ketchup that has corn vinager also. I stick with them.

Hey richard,

Just to clarify, anything that contains vanilla in their listing would be gluten free? (as in ice-creams, candies and choc). I know that almost all vinegar is gluten free, unless malt vinegar is listed.

A father's day wish from me to you. I know that you had everyone in your heart with you that day and always.

Hi Lisa,

I've never found or heard of a vanilla with gluten. I think pretty much everybody agrees now that vanilla in a product is not a concern by itself.

Thanks for the good wishes. Father's Day was hard. I stayed as cheerul as I could for my son's sake and of course it was good to have him around.

richard

      From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr

      Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

      Thanks Scott I will definitely check my vitamins and minerals to see what I am missing so then I can supplement. I was very concern about my Meniers syntoms and i tryed to find some alive. Now im just realizing that my celiac is provably the root cause of my Meniers none of the 12 doctors I saw told me anything about this.  This web site is so helpful, thanks to people like you we can get answers.

      Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include muscle strain, rib fractures, or even referred pain from other conditions.  It will also help to chose vegetables low in omega 6.
