Hidden Gluten In Rice Dream Milk?


jayzeemomma

Recommended Posts

jayzeemomma Rookie

The ingredients on the Original Rice Dream beverage from the grocery store are very simple and do not contain gluten:water, organic brown rice (partially milled), expeller pressed high oleic safflower oil and /or sunflower or canola oil, sea salt. And that is it, except I went to the website just to see and it says it is not gluten free because they process it with a barley enzyme (which they discard so some may or may not be left behind), but this makes it not gluten free, and makes me very nervous about eating anything but fruits and vegetables if you know what I mean. The ingredient list was safe and no where on the box did it say anything about gluten, so I drank some and then later found this info out on the website. I wonder how to deal with this and how to ever really know if something is gluten free.

Thanks so much!

It is not gluten free. Avoid it. They used to list the barley enzyme / gluten warning on some of their boxes but I think they've stopped. It is the grandest scam out there. Depending on your sensitivity level you may not notice a problem with one intake or two. That is kind of how I am. However if I use this stuff in cereal every day for a week or two then I begin to become ill.

There are other rice milk options that are safe. Lundberg is one and Pacific Rice is another.

The ones in my grocery store say "not a gluten free product contains barley enzyme" this is the one with the heart on the front and the other one states gluten free. I decided to change to almond milk but always read cartons to be sure of any product since they will sometimes change ingredients or suppliers even if always gluten free before.

Hi jayzeemomma,

have you ever considered using 'Vance's Darifree' it's a dairy substitute derived from potato.

Yeah, the Rice Dream is really bad. Some cartons say it is not gluten free and some say it contains some really tiny amount of gluten. But they put that warning on the box in a weird place where you won't see it until after you've brought it home and perhaps even consumed a few cartons.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
