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 Information in it is probably out of date.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.

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.
