Website/database For Gluten/non-glutin Products

Is there a website that hosts a database of food products that are gluten free or not gluten free? Something that one could type in a product name of concern and get a search result that would say "gluten free, contians gluten and/or contact manufacture"? Peticularly ready to eat foods.

That would make it easier on us newbies. :blink:

There are databases but they are only accurate for the day they are done, I think Clan Thompson site may have one but I am not sure.

It is better to learn which companys clearly list gluten ingredients, Kraft is one but there are others, which have stuff that looks gluten free but has a high risk of CC, Frito Lay is an example of those. If you have a Wegmans Market near you shop there they mark all their gluten free stuff and are really good with the CC issue. All their gluten-free stuff has a circle G on it.

One thing you can do that usually gets good quick results is to type the name of the product and the word gluten into a search engine. Many times the companys gluten policy will show up in one of the first results. It is not the case for all but for many products it works. When first starting the diet for the quickest healing you should try to eat as little processed food as possible. Go for fruits, veggies, meats, nuts, rice etc that are as close to natural as you can get.

Clan Thompson has one, but I hardly ever use it. When I have usually what I'm looking for is not in the database. <_< I prefer to stick to companies that will disclose their gluten, or at least companies that have gluten free lists on their websites, like Frito-lay, Newman's own, etc.

Here's a link to companies that will disclose gluten on the label:

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

      Welcome to the forum. Is the nausea associated with eating certain foods, or anything else in particular?  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months.

      Absolutely my point with Kerrigan, the owner. She stood to secure many years of faithful patronage by simply inviting us in for a pastry or lunch. Or by simply producing another $50 e-card based on trust. We would have been highly satisfied. We are limited to a few restaurants in the area, and that would have been one. It was very disappointing, esp to my wife, to realize we can't patronize the place anymore.

      You would think any business would see the wisdom of honoring a $50 gift certificate on the basis of customer satisfaction alone, apart from any questions about software glitches.
