Baking Soda/powder

[Guest Annie74]

I have 2 safe/unsafe lists I am working from. One lists baking soda as unsafe and I cannot find baking powder on either the safe or unsafe list. Help!!

Thanks! So, when I read in a product's ingredients that there is baking powder or soda then I have to call the company to ask if there are glutens in it, right?

wow--i have been at this for over 3 years and never thought about that--somedays i feel like this is a never ending battle i keep saying i need an adult reading the ngredients for me deb--------i will say, i am not sure that i have ever run into a problem before just because i didnt realize i had to call about baking powder or baking soda, but who knows, maybe i did

Don't most products that have baking powder or baking soda also have gluten just because they are cake or cookies?

I'm thinking hard here and I can't think of anything I'd put bp or bs in that wasn't a bakery type product. I have to make all of those myself anyway and use Tones products.

Just curious here. What is it that has bp or bs in the ingredient list that you are wondering about?

I've never understood the warnings about baking powder and soda and no one has ever explained to me how there might be gluten. The list at celiac.com says they're safe but then says to check them. I've never in three eyarsa fo8nd a commercial baking soda or powder with gluten. All of the main brands are definitely gluten-free.

Perhaps the original warning about these was because, as somebody else said, they are usually found in baked products.
