Hydrolized Vegetable Oil

[Twister2]

Is this safe for Celiacs? I see Hydrolyzed Soybean oil is on the safe list, but what about the veggie oils?

Thanks!!

Safe....hyrdolized vegetable protein can be a problem, but the oil is okay

I though Hydrolyzed Soybean oil was not safe?

Hmmm, I try to stay away from soy anyway though.

Oh, i'm sorry....I thought it said "Hydrolized vegetable oil". I don't know about SOYBEAN oil....so i'm not sure...sorry!!!

Hydrolyzed Soy PROTEIN is not safe. Now I don't know about the oil.......so from what I gather its the proteins that aren't safe??

[celiac3270]

Hold on....soy oil or vegetable oil. The topic says vegetbale oil, and here it says soy oil.....i'm confused

Here's my understanding (somebody correct me if I'm wrong):

All oils, hydrolized or otherwise, are gluten-free. Even "vegetable" oil.

Hydrolized vegetable protein is on our suspect list because it could POSSIBLY be made from wheat. However, if it's a specific hydrolized protein, such as soy, corn, etc, it's OK unless it's hydrolized wheat protein. It's not the hydrolizing that makes it non-gluten-free, it's what they hydrolize.

I looked on Clan Thompsons site and here is something:

"Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein: Gluten free: Unknown. Vegetarian: Unknown. Comments: Don't use unless it's from corn or soy."
