Lipton Onion Soup Mix


cml

Recommended Posts

I ate some onion dip, which was made with Lipton Onion Soup Mix, and had a terrible reaction to it. I've always heard that it is gluten free. In reading the box after I had stomach pain, it says that it is made in a plant that also processes wheat products. Has anyone else noticed this, or had a similiar problem? Thanks

We use it often & never had a reaction to it.... Are you super sensitive?

cml Newbie

Yes, I am really sensitive, and now that I think back, there were many times when I gor a reaction, and could not tie it to any specific thing. Makes me wonder. I have seen a million gluten free recipes that called for Lipton Onion Soup Mix, and now I am a bit leery. Thanks for listening!

Please forgive me for bringing up a controversial subject - just trying to help, but - you could be reacting to monosodium glutamate (MSG). Some people just can't tolerate it at all (like me, for instance).

That is very poosible, that it could be a reaction to MSG. Good point. Thanks!

Does anyone have the ingredients for the soup mix? I am going somewhere tomorrow and they are using it on a brisket, so I wanted to know if I can have it or not! Thanks! :D

MSG and Corn Starch would do me in! B) A very bad combination for me!

Also, I know "caramel color" used to be made with wheat protein or malt. I read something that said it isn't made from that anymore in this country, but it's worth asking the company. Their caramel color supplier could have gotten it from a source that does make it from wheat.

Okay, I looked it up in my handy-dandy "Gluten Free Grocery Shopping Guide-2007 Edition" by Matison & Matison (little red book sold on this site), and it lists under Lipton soups: "Recipe Secrets Onion Soup Mix" is gluten free.

So I agree with the previous poster, it's probably the MSG.

Hope that helps. :)

Make sure it was not the Kosher version of the Lipton Onion Soup Mix. They make 2 different versions and I believe the Kosher one is not gluten-free.

Everyone.... thank you for all this good info. I have never been in this forum before, but I can see that it will be a big help from now on !!

      That is a very good point I do not know if they truly ever went down. With my nutrient levels all being good, CBC, metabolic panel I assumed everything was fine over the years. Now Im worried this is refractory celiac or something else

      I don’t know how common it is, but it happens.  Total IgA going up is not necessarily celiac related.  The body can make IgA antibodies against all sort of things.   But if I understand correctly that until recently you haven’t had a celiac blood test since diagnosis, how do you know that your recent blood tests are a mild rise, vs never going down to the normal range? That also can happen, although not too common. Some people with celiac disease do react even to purity protocol certified gluten free oats. Removing oats from your diet for a few months and retesting is probably a good idea.

      interesting I did not know that was that common or could take that long.  When I was diagnosed 15 yrs ago I was told just follow gluten-free diet and follow up with primary care doctor (who never checked celiac panel again). I felt way better and all the major symptoms went away. It wasn't until recently at 25 (14 yrs after diagnosis) that I thought to follow up with a gastro doctor who then did a celiac panel and noted those minor elevations 3 months ago then I got them checked again by another doctor the other week and were showing roughly the same thing.  I am very strict with what I eat and dieitican was maybe thinking it could be oat flour. I do eat a fair amount of processed food but I...

      Do you have any other results from either of the two labs where you’ve been tested recently?  If so, are the newest results from that lab elevated over previous results? It took me 5 years to get all of my antibodies into the normal range. Then 3 years later one went up into the positive range.  I realized that I had started baking with a different brand of gluten free flour.  When I stopped using that flour the level went back to normal.  Has something changed in your diet, environment, activities, medications or other areas where you could possibly be exposed to gluten? 
    • thejayland10
      Thank you for the clarifcation, how can I get to the bottom of this as to why they may be elevated even on a super strict gluten-free diet?
