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.

      Thanks for the reply.

      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.
