Pam Sprays..

Well I'm sure most of us have used Pam cooking sprays, but I saw a commercial today and now I'm afraid of using Pam!

It is a commercial for Pam spray with flour in it! :blink: So I'm wondering if the regular stuff will stay remain gluten-free and free of contamination or not....anyone know?

I was thinking the same thing.....

Dunno, I have pretty much moved away from all those sprays now and use parchment paper, butter, or somthing else instead. Why add moe chemicals to your home cooked meal then you have to ?

According to the new Delphi list that just came out recently there is a note on there saying that Pam for Baking is NOT gluten free, however Pam NO STICK Spray is gluten-free.

If you are interested in using a spray, but are concerned about CC with Pam, you can get a non-aerosol spray bottle for spraying any cooking oil:

This particular one is pricey, but you can get cheaper versions. I have one that is plastic. :)

Yeah, I saw that add for the flour-added Pam on TV and was just thinking that I now have to make sure that nobody we know is using the stuff for any food they prepare that would otherwise be "safe". I rarely eat food made outside our house, and now I have just one more reason to stick with that mentality.

I know! Everyone in my family seems to use it :blink:

But IF the non-stick one is still safe, I'll just have to make sure mom at home even only buys that one!! I hate when companies do this!

Isn't it so frustrating!?! They tell you they're making it better, but they are only making it worse. Will regular spray bottles work for oil, or do I need a special one?

The Pam thing always made me nervous. I use Mazolas Pure Sprays. I particularly use the Canola Spray. There is no chemicals in it, and no wheat. I like it.

It's a "special" design where you pump the lid to create pressure, and then use the spray nozzle for a fine mist. These bottles are typically sold in specialty kitchen stores, but you may be able to find them in dept. stores as well. The bottle I use is called Open Original Shared Link.

That's what I use.

That Pam with wheat has been around for over a year. You just have to check the label to make sure you're getting the right kind. I've found the aerosol pumps for your own oil get all messed up from time to time and send out a stream rather than a spray. Maybe a pricey one of those is the answer. I think mine was pretty cheap.

I've been told that a regular spray bottle will work fine. I haven't tried this myself, but I'm pretty sure it would work.

I keep forgetting to pick up a spray bottle, I need to do that on Monday. If I remember, I'll try it and let you know :)

It works!! I bought a cheap spray bottle, filled it w/olive oil, and presto!! All for less then a dollar :D I had to kinda fiddle with the nozzle till I got the right setting (it's one of those that you turn the nozzle and it changes the density of the mist) but after a minute or two I got it; and it works beautifully :)

Thanks for the tip! :) I was just thinking today (when I saw the Pam commercial) that there ought to be a cheap way that I can make my own at home. We've got a dollar store in town....it's worth the dollar just to try it! B)

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
