I have this list printed out and take it shopping with me. Someone just posted it over at delphi and reminded me that I may not have posted it here for the newbies. You will be amazed at how much stuff we can have!!!!

Remember though, this is Kraft Canada, I can't guarantee that Kraft in the U.S. is the same.......

Happy Shopping!!!!

(I thought that even though Kraft lists whether there is any gluten, for the celiacs new to this diet, reading the ingredients can still be very confusing. I can remember how I felt when I started reading all the ingredients and couldn't even pronounce half of them and thinking "How the heck do I know if this is gluten or not?????)

Thanks for posting this Karen. I had the list years ago, but mis-placed it. Probably time for an up-date anyway :D

Karen,

Thanks for the list, even though I am not in Canada it gave me some ideas of similar products to check out in the US. I have been so thrilled with Kraft and their products since I discovered their labeling policy.

Karen this is such a great list...

I use the Shake' n Bake barbeque chicken claze and and Spicy BBQ chicken wings glaze on my chicken a lot. MMMMMMMMMMM. I also eat the gluten-free salad dressings and the Jell-O. The gel snacks rock YUM! :P

PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOU READ THE INGREDIENTS on the gluten free items... bought Shake n Bake product based on the list and discovered it was not gluten-free according to the ingredients... I called Kraft who confirmed they had made a mistake... they refunded me (big deal), and send me a relatively useless cooking magazine regularly.

Thanks for mentioning that Bruce. I use that list quite often and I guess I was starting to feel "too safe" with it. It always is a good reminder that we still need to read EVERYTHING!!

Hope you didn't suffer any ill effects....

Karen, do you have another link to this site? Or do you still have that list? I was wondering if the pudding mixes were lactose free before adding milk.

This is why I don't consider any mainstream items at any time to be "gluten free". I never do my shopping with a list and always read every label every time I buy the product and carry my cell phone with me to make the call every time I am not confident of what I see listed there. Of course, I am ultra sensitive as well so I have to be over-the-top diligent. Well, I guess I should say "used to" to as the whole family has gone gluten-free, dairy free and no more prepackaged processed foods period.

No matter what your lists say, remember to read your labels each and every time.

I know this thread was started awhile ago, but they must have had too many complaints so they removed the list. If you read their allergy section about gluten, it says they're not planning on rewriting another list. Too bad because it would be a good starting point....

Please bear in mind that this thread was started in 2005. A good many things have changed. Ingredients change during the course of time, so please read the labels.

There is Kraft Canadian and Kraft US. They are not always the same. So please contact your 1-800 # on your product.

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease...

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especia...

      nothing has changed

      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can t...

      About Celiac Remission

      This idea comes up often, but it’s important to separate theory from what’s actually supported by evidence. In celiac disease, the immune system does not “forget” gluten in a permanent or reliable way, even after long periods of avoidance, and the celiac genes do not turn off. While antibody levels (like tTG IgA) can normalize on a strict gluten-free diet an...

      need help understanding testing result for Naked Nutrition Creatine please

      Gluten testing is normally reported in ppm (parts per million), which is equivalent to mg/kg, not micrograms by itself. A result of <0.025 mcg only becomes meaningful if you know the sample size tested (for example, mcg per gram or per kg). If that value represents <0.025 mcg per gram, that would equal <25 ppm, which is above the gluten-free threshold...

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.

      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can take 12–24 months (sometimes longer) for antibodies and the intestinal lining to fully heal, particularly in teens and young adults. Eating gluten again to “test” things isn’t recommended and won’t give you clear answers—it’s far more likely to cause harm than clarity. Weight not changing is also very common in celiac and doesn’t rule anything out. Please know that your frustration and sadness matter; this adjustment is hard, and feeling stuck can really affect mental health. You deserve support, and if you can, reaching out to a GI dietitian or mental health professional familiar with chronic illness could really help you through this phase. This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet. I suspect that if you looked closely at the diets of those who did not recover within 2 years might be that their diets were not 100% gluten-free. Perhaps they ate out more often, or didn't understand all of the hidden ingredients where gluten can hide. Either way, it shows how difficult recovery from celiac disease can be for most people. According to this study: This article explores other causes of flattened villi:

      Gluten testing is normally reported in ppm (parts per million), which is equivalent to mg/kg, not micrograms by itself. A result of <0.025 mcg only becomes meaningful if you know the sample size tested (for example, mcg per gram or per kg). If that value represents <0.025 mcg per gram, that would equal <25 ppm, which is above the gluten-free threshold; if it’s <0.025 mcg per kilogram, it would be extremely low and well within GF limits. Without the denominator, the result is incomplete. It’s reasonable to follow up with the company and ask them to confirm the result in ppm using a validated method (like ELISA R5)—that’s the standard used to assess gluten safety.

      Medications

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Medication sensitivity is very real for many people with celiac and other autoimmune conditions, and it’s frustrating when that’s brushed off. Even when a medication is technically gluten-free, fillers, dose changes, or how your nervous system reacts—especially with things like gabapentin—can cause paradoxical effects like feeling wired but exhausted. The fact that it helped bloating suggests it may be affecting gut–nerve signaling, which makes sense in the context of SIBO, but that doesn’t mean the side effects should be ignored. You’re carrying a heavy load right now with ongoing skin, eye, and neurological uncertainty, and living in that kind of limbo is exhausting on its own. It’s understandable to feel overwhelmed and discouraged when systems and providers don’t meet you where you are—your experience is valid, and continuing to advocate for yourself, even when it’s hard, really does matter. You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
