anyone know if the jambalya mix is gluten free?

it says soy sauce.. but it says (100% soybean) next to it.

and then i read that they will not hide wheat.. so im just wondering if anyone knows for sure?

Zatarain's has always said they'd list gluten. If the soy sauce doesn't list wheat, it doesn't have it. Every soy sauce I've ever seen lists wheat if it has it since that's a MAJOR ingredient.

I've used Zatarain's Jambablaya, jambalaya with cheese, and their Spanish Rice and have not had any reactions. There are a few I haven't used though. We eat them regularly in my house and everyone's fine.

I use the Jambalaya all the time, and have not had any problems either. It list soy instead of wheat for the sauce.

Zatarain's is really good - my husband and I used to eat those before I went gluten-free. Their red beans & rice and dirty rice are my favorites, but they're NOT gluten-free. <_<

Thank goodness the jambalaya is though!

I love the 'dirty rice' mix, haven't had any reaction to that either.

The original post was four years old. Companies change ingredients and it may not have been gluten-free then but may be now. Better to read labels or contact makers than using very old threads to see whether something is safe or not.

Read the earlier post about old threads. This is a problem. I'm trying to train myself to check the date of posts, but I frequently forget. Please be careful about resurecting old posts.

I would be very aware of the zatarain jambalaya mix!  It says on the box gluten free but is still being made in a facility with products that are not.  I purchased a box and were sick for several days because of the gluten.  Maybe some with celiac that are not as sensitive to gluten as I am may be able to tolerate it.  But still I would advise not trying it.

This thread is eight years old. Information in it is probably out of date. I would not depend on anything in this topic.

      Thanks for the reply.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
