Help! Kraft Jello And Salad Dressing

I am really confused about Kraft. I see a product lising for Canada, but nothing for the US. I've read here that Kraft CLEARLY LABELS allergens after each ingredient, but now I've read that "natural flavors" may have gluten in it? And I also bought Viva Italian salad dressing b/c there was nothing in the ingredients to worry about, but I don't even see it on the Canadian site as being gluten-free. So what's going on here? Do they truly list allergen sources or not? I've just eaten the Jello before finding that information, and I'm worried I'll have a problem now (which I can't afford to have, since I am in an already high-risk pregnancy!). I haven't had the dressing (thankfully), but it doesn't say anything after 'vinegar' in the ingredients. Does that mean it's a gluten-free vinegar?

Confused and worried,

Do you want to know if it's gluten-free in the US or Canada? Jello is gluten-free in the US and all gluten must be listed. If there are flavors that contain gluten, Kraft would write them like this: natural flavors (wheat). So in the US, just read the label.

I'm not sure about Canada because I do not live there but I know in the US that Kraft will not hide wheat,rye,barley, or oats under anything.For example:if there is modified food starch on the label of a Kraft product but doesn't say wheat,rye, barley, or oats after it then it is safe...Kraft will list the allergen after the ingredient if it is in the product. Hope this clears some things up :D

There is - apparently - a difference in how Kraft handles their items in Canada versus the US. There is a list for Canada, the general policy for labeling in the US. So, if you're in Canada, go by the list. If you're in the US, go by the label. (Even if they're different - sometimes the product formulations ARE different.)

Ok, I am in the US and couldn't find a gluten-free US listing. But as far as ingredients go, do you think they would label wheat after vinegar? I've never seen that before. I would love to try this dressing (Viva Italian) but I want to make sure.

Really relieved about the Jello!

They should...otherwise they wouldn't be living up to their pledge about listing gluten on the label.

sounds hopeful!

Have either of you (or anyone else) ever tried the Viva Italian? I just can't believe it could be gluten-free. That would be so awesome! It was my favorite dressing and marinade!

Can't think of how else to say this except to repeat -- Kraft will clearly list wheat, rye, barley or oats if it's in there. They are one of the best big companies about this. If those are not in the ingredients, IT IS gluten-free. No need to question it any further.

      But M&M's contain milk, and would not be at all like a Tootsie Roll.

      I appreciate you validating me because medical is an issue and it's not ok at all they they do this. Some days I just want to call the news media and just call out these doctors especially when they are supposed to be specialist Downplaying when gluten-free when they should know gluten-free is false negative. Now dealing with other issues and still crickets...

      M&M Peanuts. About the same calories and sugar while M&M Peanuts have fiber, potassium, iron and protein that Tootsie Rolls ("We are currently producing more than 50 million Tootsie Rolls each day.") don't. Click the links to compare nutritional values. Both are made with sugar, not high fructose corn syrup. I use them as a gluten free substitute...

      I see it everyday on my feeds. They go out and buy gluten-free processed products and wonder why they can't heal their guts. I don't think they take it as a serious immune disease. They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field. Some days I would just like to scream. So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach...

While I get heartburn at night from commercial dairy milk, I do not from 'grassmilk'.

They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field.  Some days I would just like to scream.  So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach them properly. I just had an EMA blood test because I haven't had one since my Doctor moved away.  Got test results today, doctor ordered a D3 vitamin test.  Now you know what  type of doctors we have.  Now I will have to pay for this test because she just tested my D3 end of December, and still have no idea about my EMA.
