Kraft Foods Are Okay (if They Don't Mention Wheat)?

[Sweetfudge]

I bought some salad dressings, neither of which mention any gluten products. The kraft website says that they state any gluten ingredients. I should be okay then, right?

Also, does anyone have a list of kraft products that are gluten-free? I would be interested in browsing that before my next grocery trip...

Thanks!

When called they say they don't hide gluten but won't confirm things are gluten free. So, the best thing to do would be check ingredients every time.

Kraft does not have a gluten-free list because the ingredients will tell you whether a product has wheat, rye, or barley. To me, this is better than a list because anything on a list can change at any time. I wish every company would do this.

Please note that when Kraft lists the following, the product is still deemed gluten free UNLESS wheat, barley, rye, or oats is mentioned: vinegar, modified food starch, enzymes, natural flavorings, artificial flavorings, caramel coloring, maltodextrin, etc.

Any gluten containing ingredient will be labeled using it's common name: wheat, barley, rye, or oats.

On top of that, because of the Food Labeling Law of 2006, they are required to list wheat. Couple that with Kraft's statement (as mentioned above), and if you read ingredients, you will be fine.

I find the 'read the label' advice to be of little value, I react violently so I want to know for sure. I found a list of the products that Kraft certifies as gluten-free. Personally I will only use those products, they may have others that are but it is not worth the risk to me. I find it interesting their shredded cheeses don't appear at all which makes me glad I avoid them:

Everyone should be aware that the site linked to in the previous post is for Kraft in Australia. It may or may not be of use to people in other countries.

Here is the link for the one in the United States, if I find ones for other countries I will list them also.

The date on this link is from the Fall 2003. This is too old to be reliable. Product ingredients and formulations may change often.

If you had gone to the link you would have seen that it is a detailed explanation of what to look for in their products that are made in the US. It does not give a gluten-free list as Kraft in the US does not do them, they tell us to read the labels. Thus since it is not for a particular product it is not out of date but details how they are dealing with the allergen issue on labels, gluten in particular.

thanks y'all!

Maybe just contact Kraft themselves. I know in Canada they are very specific about it. And i've seen a list on their site...where its pages and pages of all their products, and they check off which contains gluten and dairy, etc. but it probably wouldn't help you any because Kraft Canada varies from Kraft USA.

I didn't mean to sound abrasive. I just meant that any company information can change over the years. Just for people to be cautious...
