Mayonaise And Ketchup

I've yet to find a mayonnaise or a ketchup with gluten in them. Is there a brand that I need to be aware of?

Heinz organic ketchup, for one. (The company says it is not gluten free.) NEVER assume "all" of a type of processed food is gluten-free; ALWAYS check the labels.

Hunt's Ketchup is NOT gluten free - says on the website:

Actually, even Heinz Organic Ketchup is now gluten-free!

Woot! Another reason to *always* read lables/call companies/not assume - things change all the time. :)

Lisa,

Just so you know, distilled vinegar, regardless of the source, IS safe. https://www.celiac.com/st_prod.html?p_prodi...-50107552071.07 The American Dietitic Association has stated so.

I believe that their apprehension is based on old information (for years, vinegar was a serious worry) and worries about the new labeling law. I am going to contact them, because basically all condiments have distilled vinegar, and they do not contain "trace amounts." I wonder if this is more of a CYA situation. The gluten protein is too big to pass through the distillation process. Plus, the fact that they include corn (and corn has gluten, but its not gluten in the sense that we react to) makes me suspicious that they dont know what they are talking about. But thats just my two cents.

Lisa,

I will do that! I find it frustrating when companies are apparently trying to do well....but do more harm than good. Their information flies in the face of the American Dietetic Association, all of the Celiac awareness groups, and nutritionists, dieticians, Celiac authors, food labeling laws, .... the list goes on and on, hence my concern :). Although I'm sure I'll get a canned answer from them---wouldn't surprise me!

As pointed out, Hunt's for some reason still thinks all distilled vinegar has gluten. While I cannot guarantee every mayo and ketchup in the world is gluten-free, I don't know of any that aren't. Just read the ingredients.

      Hey @Butch68, I also have dermatitis herpetiformis but don't suffer from it anymore. I used to drink Guinness too but I drink Cider now when out on social occasions. I assume you are in Ireland or the UK. If it's any good to you ... 9 White Deer based in Cork brew a range of gluten-free products including a gluten-free Stout. I'm not sure if they are certified though. https://www.9whitedeer.ie/ I haven't come across any certified gluten-free stouts this side of the pond.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
