Worchestersauce And A1 Sauce

Since I'm new at this (just over 3 weeks) I still just forget and eat stuff, darn! I had Lea and Perrins Worchester Sauce and I'm not sure if its ok, it looks ok but what do I know.

I didn't eat the A1 Sauce but I do love the stuff and would like to know if I can use it in the future. I went to the Kraft web site and they don't list any real nutritional information about it. Shame on them!

Does anyone know?

You may want to check with the company, but I do believe that Lea&Perins in gluten-free in the US (not Canada).

Lea and Perrins is gluten-free. So was French's last time I checked.

Don't get mad at Kraft. Kraft clearly lists any gluten in any product in the ingredients. All you have to do is pick up a bottle and read the ingredients. This is how I wish EVERY company would be.

Hmmmm, well the ingredients in my A1 Sauce (garlic flavor) are:

(an * by the ones I'm not sure are gluten-free)

tomato puree

vinegar

molasses

corn syrup

salt

raisin paste

roasted garlic puree

*spice

orange puree

dried garlic

dried onions

*carmel color

*natural flavor

sugar

tamarind

It has no warning for gluten, or wheat ingredients but I'm just not sure.

Because you don't see the words "wheat," "rye," or "barley" in those ingredients, according to Kraft's policy, it's gluten-free. If any of the ingredients you marked had wheat, rye, or barley, it would have said so.

Are you sure Heinz 57 is not gluten-free? It was listed on one of the other sites as being "safe". I just read the label and I could not find anything obviously incriminating. Anyone?

Heinz 57 is not on Heinz's gluten-free list at its web site -- or it wasn't last time I looked.

Heinz 57 is not gluten free, but Heinz Tomato Ketchup is. Weird, I know. But that's what Heinz says. Safeway Tomato Ketchup is gluten-free, too. Then my boyfriend goes out and buys Hunt's Ketchup. NOT gluten-free. Ugh. I told him to get his money back. Dork. :lol:

PS: YAY for A-1 sauce! I love that stuff! I'm totally buying that now!! Woo hoo!

I was so hoping that A-1 was not gluten free; I can't stand the smell of it and Dh consumes it like it was, well, sauce. So every year when we come back I am condemned to A-1 again, sometimes on poached egg!!, a double whammy :(

I do believe the "malt vinegar" on Heinz 57 is made with barley malt - so it won't be labeled but it is NOT gluten-free. I think it is labeled as such but it is definitely NOT gluten-free :(

      Do Gluten Enzymes actually work?

      If you successfully digest gluten with enzyme supplements so it won’t give you side effects, your challenge won’t be worthwhile because the digested fragments of gluten also won’t stimulate antibody production or cause intestinal damage.

      You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance"...

      Living with celiac disease can be especially hard when you’re in a smaller town and don’t have many people around who truly understand it, so you’re definitely not alone in feeling this way. Ongoing fatigue, joint pain, and headaches are unfortunately common in people with celiac disease, even years after diagnosis, and they aren’t always caused by gluten exposure alone. Many people find that issues like low iron, low vitamin D, thyroid problems, other autoimmune conditions, or lingering inflammation can contribute to that deep exhaustion, so it’s reasonable to push your doctor for more thorough blood work beyond just vitamin B. As for eggs, it’s also not unusual for people with celiac disease to develop additional food intolerances over time; tolerating eggs as an ingredient but not on their own can point to sensitivity to the proteins when they’re concentrated. Some people do better avoiding eggs for a while, then carefully testing them again later. Most importantly, trust your body—if something consistently makes you feel awful, it’s okay to avoid it even if it’s technically “allowed.” Many of us have had to advocate hard for ourselves medically, and connecting with other people with celiac disease, even online, can make a huge difference in feeling supported and less isolated.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Cecile! It is common for those with celiac disease to develop sensitivity/intolerance to non-gluten containing foods. There is a high incidence of this with particularly with regard to dairy products and oats but soy, eggs and corn are also fairy common offenders. Like you eggs give me problems depending on how they are cooked. I don't do well with them when fried or scrambled but they don't give me an issue when included in baked and cooked food dishes or when poached. I have done some research on this strange phenomenon and it seems that when eggs are cooked with water, there is a hydrolysis process that occurs which alters the egg protein such that it does not trigger the sensitivity/intolerance reaction. Same thing happens when eggs are included in baked goods or other cooked dishes since those recipes provide moisture.  So, let me encourage you to try poaching your eggs when you have them for breakfast. You can buy inexpensive egg poacher devices that make this easy in the microwave. For instance:  https://www.amazon.com/Poacher-Microwave-Nonstick-Specialty-Cookware/dp/B0D72VLFJR/ Crack the eggs into the cups of the poacher and then "spritz" some water on top of them after getting your fingers wet under the faucet. About 1/4 teaspoon on each side seems to work. Sprinkle some salt and pepper on top and then snap the poacher shut. I find that with a 1000 watt microwave, cooking for about 2 minutes or slightly more is about right. I give them about 130 seconds. Fatigue and joint pain are well-established health problems related to celiac disease.  Are you diligent to eat gluten-free? Have you been checked recently for vitamin and mineral deficiencies? Especially iron stores, B12 and D3. Have you had your thyroid enzyme levels checked? Are you taking any vitamin and mineral supplements? If not, you probably should be. Celiac disease is also a nutrient deficiency disease because it reduces the efficiency of nutrient absorption by the small bowel. We routinely recommend celiacs to supplement with a high potency B-complex vitamin, D3, Magnesium glycinate (the "glycinate" is important) and Zinc. Make sure all supplements are gluten-free. Finally, don't rule out other medical problems that may or may be associated with your celiac disease. We celiacs often focus on our celaic disease and assume it is the reason for all other ailments and it may not be. What about chronic fatigue syndrome for instance?
