I searched this but "corn" kept coming up :unsure: ......

I need some help w/ Vanilla Extract. Is pure and imitation BOTH safe or what? Is it just certain kinds that are safe?? Yep, i'm confused about this!

I have a thing of Great Value PURE vanilla extract and I have a thing of McCormick's IMITATION vanilla extract. Just curious is I can use both, one and not the other or neither of them.

Thanks in advanced to anyone out there with MEGA baking knowledge!

Hey Chick:

McCormack's is gluten free, it is vanillin (synthetic vanilla). Real vanilla extract has acohol in it.

All products by Nielesn-Massey Vanillas Open Original Shared Link are gluten free!

I am able to get them at my gourmet grocery store. And a few other places in town!

Okay, thanks!

All vanilla would appear to be gluten-free. Distilled alcohol is gluten-free, and even it werent, the amount used in extract is so small, you couldn't even measure it.

Vanilla being a problem is another one of those celiac urban myths.

Richard, You are our favorite "celiac myth-buster." As always thanks for giving us the facts!

Now that we' re on this topic, would that also be the same answer for McCormick's other extracts, like the lemon, anise, etc.

I think people freaked out about vanilla because of the "Bourbon" in the name.... not realizing that it was the name of a place and not that of the drink!

Thanks everyone!

That's verified by info I have from Columbia University Celiac Center. Their literature lists all extracts as safe.

I called McCormacks and they said that all of their extracts are gluten-free. THey will note on the package if it isn't.

      Doctors and Celiac.com

      I showed one doctor I went to once because completely clueless of celiac disease and yes that one was connected to a well known hospital and she said oh thats just a bunch of people that think they are celiac coming together. I said um no they have doctors and knowledge behind what is being written. So bay area is Downplaying this site! SADLY

      Do Gluten Enzymes actually work?

      If you successfully digest gluten with enzyme supplements so it won’t give you side effects, your challenge won’t be worthwhile because the digested fragments of gluten also won’t stimulate antibody production or cause intestinal damage.

Dr daid why don't I go see you guys because my blood shows zero for celiac. I told him im glutenfree since 1994 by colonoscopy with biopsy positive celiac sprue by GI.Its RIDICULOUS when im bringing in material from this site of knowledge as well as the autoimmune institute,and  there's zero interest on their part.Medical IS causing me depression.Im view as a disability chaser, IM STILL RECOVERING from being a bus driver that im still healing and having more issues, now I may have multiple sclerosis or meningioma. Ive reached out, wrote letters, NOT feeling well. This is inhumane.
