Anybody have any confirmation from their lists as to whether Lea and Perrins Worchesthire sauce is gluten free in Canada?

Thanks!

On the Canadian bottle I have (which has been in the cupboard for a long time), the first ingredient is malt vinegar. :( It is my understanding that the US version is different. This one is made in Canada by E. D. Smith under license.

Karen, I haven't found a gluten-free worcestershire in Canada yet, but Lorka150 can get Edward's and Sons. I think she is in Ontario as well. I make this one. It's smelly to make (boiling vinegar, ick!) but tastes all right.

Homemade Worcestershire Sauce

1/2 cup apple cider vinegar

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 tablespoons water

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon dry mustard

1/4 teaspoon onion powder

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/8 teaspoon cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon pepper

Place all ingredients in a medium saucepan and stir thoroughly.

Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Simmer 1 minute. Cool.

Store in the refrigerator.

Makes about 3/4 cup.

Shake well before using.

I haven't found a safe worcestershire sauce in Canada.

Heinz makes one that may be gluten free. It has soya sauce in it, but lists the ingredients in that soya sauce: water, salt, hydrolyzed soy protein, corn syrup, caramel. There is nothing else on the label that appears to be a risk, but it is probably best to contact the company for confirmation first.

Edit: Okay, scratch that...apparently Lea & Perrins is now owned by Heinz in Canada...and I cannot find the "Heinz version" of worcestershire sauce on their website. I'm thinking I've got a really old bottle here and it needs to be pitched out. :P Otherwise, Heinz states that they cannot guarantee any products, other than their ketchups, are gluten free.

Can you get Organic Wheat-Free Worcestershire Sauce by Edward & Sons (under the wizard label) is also Gluten Free.

The Edward and Son's one is everywhere around here.

Often, if health food stores carry anything Edward and Son's, they'll add it to a shipment.

I can send that (or Lea and Perrin's) to anyone if they'd like. Just let me know.

      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.
