does anyone know if the ready-made kroger brand ranch dip in the refridgerated section (by the sour cream) is gluten free? what cheese sauce packets are gluten free in the mac and cheese boxes? it would be so much cheaper for me to use my own gluten-free noodles with a cheese sauce packet from another box. i also think i have heard that lipton onion soup mix is gluten-free, is this right? what about the kroger brand suasage---links and bulk?

NOt sure about the other items you mentioned but I could be wrong but I would stay away from the Lipton onion soup mix - for me I get a bad reaction bloating, gas ect ect.

You can actually buy the cheese mix for the mac & cheese in a small canister (almost like parmasen cheese) and it is made by Kraft. I use Tinkyada noodles and this cheese all the time. I can't tell the difference....I actually think it may be better than Kraft! ;)

I do believe that you are right on the Lipton Onion Soup Mix.

Kroger has a number that you can call to verify their products. I have seen others post that they are pretty reliable about responding, too.

Good luck!

The Lipton Onion Soup Mix is made gluten free. I have heard many other people have reactions to it. I think that it might just be the other ingredients in it that cause them though. I have used it and been fine and sometimes I get a belly ache.

If your Kroger has any "health food" items, see if they carry DeBoles Rice Pasta and Cheese.

The Kroger where I live has it. It's gluten free, and I really enjoy it.

I work for Kroger. Kroger owns the dairy farms its dairy products come from. There will not be hidden gluten. I've had the DeBoles mac and cheese. It's ok, but not as good as Kraft. I emailed Kraft before about the canister thing. They don't sell them near me. They will send it to you, though. I haven't gotten into detail in the meat department yet. I did write a letter to the corporate headquarters urging them to make a gluten-free product list available online like Meijer and whole Foods do.

      I agree, it so often overlooked! I live in the UK and I have often wondered why doctors are so reluctant to at least exclude it - my thoughts are perhaps the particular tests are expensive for the NHS, so therefore saved for people with 'obvious' symptoms.  I was diagnosed in 2013 and was told immediately that my parents, sibling and children should be checked.  My parents' GP to this day has not put forward my father for testing, and my mother was never tested in her lifetime, despite the fact that they both have some interesting symptoms/family history that reflect they might have coeliac disease (Dad - extreme bloating, and his Mum clearly had autoimmune issues, albeit undiagnosed as such; Mum - osteoporosis, anxiety).  I am now my father' legal guardian and suspecting my parents may have forgotten to ask their GP for a test (which is entirely possible!) I put it to his last GP that he ought to be tested.  He looked at Dad's blood results and purely because he was not anemic said he wasn't a coeliac.  Hopefully as the awareness of Coeliac Disease spreads among the general public, people will be able to advocate for themselves.  It is hard because in the UK the NHS is very stretched, but the fallout from not being diagnosed in a timely fashion will only cost the NHS more money. Interestingly, a complete aside, I met someone recently whose son was diagnosed (I think she said he was 8).  At a recent birthday party with 8 guests, 4 boys out of the 8 had received diagnosis of Coeliac Disease, which is an astounding statistic  As far as I know, though, they had all had obvious gastric symptoms leading to their NHS diagnosis.  In my own case I had  acute onset anxiety, hypnopompic hallucinations (vivid hallucinations upon waking),  odd liver function, anxiety, headaches, ulcers and low iron but it wasn't until the gastric symptoms hit me that a GP thought to do coeliac testing, and my numbers were through the roof.  As @trents says, by the grace of God I was diagnosed, and the diet has pretty much dealt with most of those symptoms.  I have much to be grateful for.

      @xxnonamexx, There's labeling on those Trubar gluten free high fiber protein bars that say: "Manufactured in a facility that also processes peanuts, milk, soy, fish, WHEAT, sesame, and other tree nuts." You may want to avoid products made in shared facilities.   If you are trying to add more fiber to your diet to ease constipation, considering eating more leafy green vegetables and cruciferous vegetables.  Not only are these high in fiber, they also are good sources of magnesium.  Many newly diagnosed are low in magnesium and B vitamins and suffer with constipation.  Thiamine Vitamin B1 and magnesium work together.  Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to improve intestinal health.  Thiamine and magnesium are important to gastrointestinal health and function.

      Welcome to celiac.com @sha1091a! Your experience is a very common one. Celiac disease is one the most underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed medical conditions out there. The reasons are numerous. One key one is that its symptoms mimic so many other diseases. Another is ignorance on the part of the medical community with regard to the range of symptoms that celiac disease can produce. Clinicians often are only looking for classic GI symptoms and are unaware of the many other subsystems in the body that can be damaged before classic GI symptoms manifest, if ever they do. Many celiacs are of the "silent" variety and have few if any GI symptoms while all along, damage is being done to their bodies. In my case, the original symptoms were elevated liver enzymes which I endured for 13 years before I was diagnosed with celiac disease. By the grace of God my liver was not destroyed. It is common for the onset of the disease to happen 10 years before you ever get a diagnosis. Thankfully, that is slowly changing as there has developed more awareness on the part of both the medical community and the public in the past 20 years or so. Blessings!

      @EndlessSummer, You said you had an allergy to trees.  People with Birch Allergy can react to green beans (in the legume family) and other vegetables, as well as some fruits.  Look into Oral Allergy Syndrome which can occur at a higher rate in Celiac Disease.   Switching to a low histamine diet for a while can give your body time to rid itself of the extra histamine the body makes with Celiac disease and histamine consumed in the diet.   Vitamin C and the eight B vitamins are needed to help the body clear histamine.   Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?
