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 !!

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.
    • Scott Adams
      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
