Hi folks!

I'm new here, this is my first post! I'll also add I'm extremely new to celiac/gluten free. My son has autism, and I have to say if I had not started researching some of the biomedical aspects of autism, I would have never figured out our gluten intolerances! Anyway, I have been searching around the forum for a day or two and have founds TONS of great recipes and ideas! Thanks! :) However, I have not ran across any salad dressing recipes or tangy BBQ sauce recipes. I realize I have probably not dug far enough or looked in the right spots, but would love if someone could clue me into a few. My son and I are/were addicted to Carolina Treat BBQ sauce (I think its a NC sauce), and it is a spicy type of sauce. All I have ran across in other places are sweet style sauces. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Annie's makes a great Chipotle BBQ sauce (gluten-free). it's super spicy. Too spicy even for me (and that's saying something!) I usually buy the Chipotle BBQ sauce, and either their regular or Honey Maple and mix them together.

I don't know what stores are near you, but here is a link to Whole Foods locations in NC Open Original Shared Link

I get my Annie's BBQ sauce there. If your local Whole Foods doesn't have it, you could request it. If you don't live near a Whole Foods, try asking your local health foods store to carry it.

P.S. Welcome to the board Wendy! Good for you for figuring out the Autisim/Gluten Intollerance link - you're a good mom!

I like Kraft BBQ sauces!

I live in a small town, and the Whole Foods Market is about 3 hours away! :) I LOVE that store though, so I try to go there about once a month. Our local Food Lion carries Annie's salad dressings, so I will have to request the BBQ sauce.

Thanks for the advice and the compliment! I have found alot of great info on this board and look forward to being an active member! (not sure if I'm doing this reply correctly, but I'll figure it out!) ;)

Are all the Kraft sauces gluten-free? I'll have to try them.

Thanks!

Newman's Own has a bunch of gluten free salad dressings, pasta sauces, etc...just check the FAQ on their website. I'm in love with the Parmasean and Roasted Garlic dressing. Yum!

My son loves Sweet Baby Ray's and he mixes in Texas Pete for a kick. He loves spicy foods. These are both gluten free last I checked. You could make a good homemade sauce with some ketchup, worcestershire, liquid smoke, brown sugar and pepper-I do this alot- I just use a little liquid smoke -like 1/2 tsp and (never really measure, but am estimating here) a T. or so of worcestershire , 1/2 c. of b. sugar, 1 c. ketchup and lots of pepper. Adjust this for your taste. It is pretty good on shredded meats like chicken or beef. Happy cooking and take care. :)

I am in Havelock (Eastern NC). The Cherry Point Marine Corps Air Station is basically in

my back yard! Not military though :)

That sounds good! Our grocery store carries some of the Newman's products, so I'll check them out!

Thanks

I've never heard of Sweet Baby Rays. Do they have a website? Thanks for the recipe!

Not sure about the website, probably, though. I think it is in most of the stores that carry Kraft and others. It is really good and last I checked was still gluten free. :) I am in Va, so they probably have it in NC, too.

Hi Wendy,

I highly recommend you try Wild Thymes products, www.wildthymes.com. They are also available at Whole Foods and Wild Oats nationwide. All but 4 of their products are gluten free. I think you will really enjoy their dressings and dipping sauces.

We use Sweet Baby Rays. It's spicy, but it's also sweet. Perhaps it may be too sweet for you.

I hope I'm not sticking my nose into your business, and if this offends you, please accept my apology ahead of time... Have you also eliminated casein (milk) from your son's diet? I know there has been extensive research on gluten and casein free diets used as treatment for autism. I don't personally have any experience with the diet, but I have known of two PDD children and one autistic boy who had MASSIVE progress gains when both gluten and casein were eliminated from their diets. I used to work in a special education classroom with preschoolers at the Easter Seals foundation. You can find more information on this at Open Original Shared Link as well as many other websites.

Hats off to you for figuring out that gluten may be part of your sons problem.

Hi and welcome.

I was gonna say, I also love Sweet Baby Ray's, but not sure if it will be spicy enough for you.

Here's the website:

I'm not a huge help on dressings, but the Parmesan Garlic, Newman's Own one that someone suggested sounds great. Think I'll give that a try. LOL!

      Hi Jmartes, It sure is difficult to get useful advice from medical providers. Almost 20 years  ago a Dr suggested that I might have Celiacs and I took a Celiac Panel blood test. No gluten challenge diet. On that test the tTG was in normal range but an alpha antibody was very high. I went online and read about celiac disease and saw how I could investigate this low tTG and still have celiac disease. Normal tTG can happen when a person had been reacting for many years. Another way is that the person has not been eating enough gluten to raise the antibody level. Another reason is that the tTG does not show up on a blood but may show up on a fecal test. Almost all Celiacs inherit at least one of the 2 main Celiac genes. I had genetic tests for the Celiac genes at Enterolab.com. I inherited one main Celiac gene from one parent and the report said that the DQ gene I inherited from my other parent, DQ6, could cause a person to have more problems or symptoms with that combination. One of my grandmother's had fairly typical symptoms of Celiacs but the other grandmother had severe food intolerances. I seem to show some problems inherited from both grandmothers. Human physiology is very complex and researchers are just beginning to understand how different body systems interact.  If you have taken an autosomal DNA test you can download your raw data file and upload it to Prometheuw.com for a small fee and search for Celiac Disease. If you don't find any Cekiac genes or information about Celiac disease  you may not have autoimmune gluten intolerance because more than 99% of Celiacs have one or both of these genes.  PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS IF YOU WANT TO KNOW EHAT i HAVE DONE TO HELP WITH SYMPTOMS.

      I can't prove it, but I truly believe I have been glutened by airborne particles. I used to take care of shelter cats once per week at a pet store, and no matter how careful I was, I would get glutened each time even if I wore a mask and gloves and washed up well after I was done. I believe the problem was that because I'm short, I couldn't do the the tasks without getting my head and shoulders inside their cages, and so the particles from their food would be all over my hair and top of my shirt. Then I had to drive home, so even if I didn't get glutened right then, the particles would be in my car just waiting for me to get in the car so they could get blown into my face again. I gave up that volunteer gig and stopped getting glutened so often and at such regular intervals.

      Hello, @MogwaiStripe, Vitamin D is turned into its activated forms by Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency can affect Vitamin D activation. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14913223/ Thiamine deficiency affects HLA genes.  HLA genes code for autoimmune diseases like Celiac, Thyroiditis, Diabetes, etc.  Thiamine deficiency inside a cell triggers a toggle switch on the gene which in turn activates autoimmune diseases carried on the gene.  The reference to the study is in my blog somewhere.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll down to the drop down menu "Activities" and click on blogs.

      Hello, @annamarie6655, Yes, there's many of us who react to airborne gluten!   Yes, animal feed, whether for chickens or cats or dogs, can release airborne gluten.  I can get glutened from the bakery section at the grocery store.   The nose and mouth drain into the digestive system and can trigger systemic reactions.   I find the histamine release in response to airborne gluten will stuff up my sinuses and bother my eyes.  High histamine levels do cause anxiety and migraines.  The muscle spasms can be caused by high histamine, too.  The digestive system may not manifest symptoms without a higher level of gluten exposure.   Our bodies make an enzyme, DAO (diamine oxidase), to break down histamine.   Pyridoxine B 6, Cobalamine B12, Vitamin C, copper, zinc, and iron are needed to make DAO.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Taking a B Complex supplement and additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) helps reduce the amount of histamine being released.  Mast cells without sufficient Thiamine have an itchy trigger finger and release histamine at the slightest provocation.  Thiamine helps mast cells refrain from releasing their histamine.    I find taking additional TTFD thiamine helps immensely with neurological symptoms as TTFD can easily cross the blood brain barrier without a carrier.  High histamine in the brain can cause the muscle spasms, anxiety and migraines.  Vitamin C really helps with clearing histamine, too.   The Digiorno pizza mystery reaction could have been caused by a reaction to the cheese.  Some people develop lactose intolerance.  Others react to Casein, the protein in dairy, the same as if to gluten because Casein resembles the molecular structure of gluten.  An enzyme used in some dairy products, microbial transglutaminase, causes a gluten reaction because it is the same as the tissue transglutaminase our bodies make except microbes make it.  Those tTg IgA blood tests to diagnose celiac disease measure tissue transglutaminase our bodies release as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.   You're doing great!  A Sherlock Holmes award to you for figuring out the connection between airborne gluten and animal feed!!!
