Any kind that I know of is gluten free. I like Orville Redenbacher the best, I almost eat it every day. My favorite kind is light butter, though sometimes I buy Smartpop butter but I like it far less. Mostly I eat light butter and I sometimes put spray butter on it. yum!! :P

I get the Pop Secret. It's from General Mills and I know they will list their gluten. My son likes that Spiderman is on the package. :lol:

I buy Newmans Own organic microwave popcorn plain and then melt my own organic butter and drizzle on!! Yum. The other kinds of newmans are gluten free also.

There are some popcorns (drizzle on types) that aren't gluten free. I can't remember which brand. I just remember that the stuff you're supposed to drizzle on it isn't gluten free.

I have been getting the Act II Butter. It is pretty good, and I like to get the individual bags -

Newman's Own microwave popcorn is gluten-free. For microwave popcorn, though, read the ingredients carefully. Some have malt (from barley) and other things in the 'butter solution'.

I've been making popcorn from the kernels on the stove; less anxiety about what's in it (and no guilt about how microwave popcorn plant workers were getting sick from production) and it tastes SO much better.

I use organic popcorn, coconut oil (really good for you), and Himalyan salt. It takes all of 5 minutes-I couldn't believe how easy it was. The oil and salt gives the 'popcorn' flavor - you don't need the butter. It makes really fluffy, non-soggy kernels with no slightly slimy aftertaste as from cheap microwave popcorn. I bag some when I make a snack to carry. Black popcorn's the best, imo, with softer insides.

If you want a 'kettle corn' flavor you can mix sugar in with the oil, but you have to be careful of the temp. then. I haven't tried this bec. I'm avoiding sugar.

Popcorn's actually really good for you as a snack food if you are eating the real thing - it has a lot of nutrients. Also, it's something I can have at other's houses without worrying about gluten or dairy or msg if popped from the kernels.

Sorry so long ... I've been thinking about popcorn a lot lately!

I do mine like you do, but I use Real Salt. I have some Himalayan salt but haven't tried it yet. I make a large batch of popcorn almost every night. Daughter sometimes eats it for breakfast. I was born in the midwest where it is considered a food group. Heh!

It's wonderful! I used to use olive oil. It's good too but the coconut oil is much better and has a slightly buttery flavor.

Wrong time of year, but for future reference Boy Scout Microwave Popcorn is gluten-free. I verified this last year - hopefully they won't change it.

Every day at 2:00, we make popcorn in my office. It is a little tradition we have. Guess it kind of breaks up our day or something.

We use Wegmans--gluten free on box

Popsecret and ActII both I have had no problems with.

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      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.

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      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...

      Gluten Issues and Vitamin D

      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/

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      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 react...

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.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      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.
