I have seen McCormick Taco Seasoning listed on a gluten free list. Has anyone used this seasoning? If so, did it cause problems.?

McCormick is a company that will clearly list all gluten ingredients, and won't hide them. For all their products, if you don't see wheat, barley, malt, rye, or oats listed, then it is safe. They are a great company for Celiacs!

Their website says:

When a product that contains gluten is formulated, we take precautions to ensure the source of gluten is declared on our label in the ingredient statement.

And, yes, I use their taco seasonings and I have never had a problem with any of their products. Enjoy!

We use this once a week for taco night - no problems.

Just be careful to read the labels. Today, I considered buying the McCormick's Chicken Taco seasoning, but when I read the ingredients, that one does list WHEAT.

Like others here, I use their products with no problem. Read.

a really good company to buy spices and blends from is The Spice House

If they were to use flour they list it. Most companies that mix up spices like this don't use flour as a filler.

I thought it was ok when I was first diagnosed but later realized I was dreading taco night because I didn't feel well after. Decided to look for issues, found the taco seasoning to be the problem, verified with my Nima (which others will tell you is no good for testing spices but it works fine as far as I'm concerned). I'm doing much better with McCormick certified gluten free taco seasoning mix. Why would they make gluten-free if the original was gluten-free anyway?

I know the advice written on McCormick products is that they “claim” wheat if it’s in there. Why on their taco seasoning mix, it’s not listed as possible cross-contamination? This should be added as a warning. I feel that I cannot trust McCormick spices now. It is also bothering my child for taco night and I have switched to Spice Island’s Taco Seasoning Mix that contains the same ingredients and claims gluten-free.

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.
