I just made a double batch of chili and looked at the tomato can ingredients. I assume diced organic tomatoes, the tomato sauce, and tomato paste are all gluten-free. I'm not talking about flavored anything, but just plain diced, sauce, and paste. Am I correct? The ingredients are fairly straight forward, but there's always the one or two ingredients that I don't even know what they are.

Thanks!

Karen

From what I've used so far in my cooking this past year, i haven't seen any canned veggies that have gluten in them, especially tomato stuff. I have only seen tomatoes and peppers or spices in even stewed tomatoes or seasoned sauce. There is an unsafe ingredients list on this site that can help you recognize whether any oddball ingredients are not okay. Hope this helps. I've only been doing this gluten free thing for allllmost a whole year now, and I've been there with the labeling issues. I'm starting to compile a folder of printouts from major brands of what their gluten-free products are, and will eventually put a list of brand names and companies who state on their websites that they disclose all gluten ingredients. This will help me have peace of mind at the store so I don't have to second-guess so much.

you may want to be careful if there are natural flavorings listed on the can, or several ingredients. i don't buy seasoned canned veggies at all. the only ingredients i have noticed on them tend to be water and whatever the veggie is. sometimes there might be salt, but usually it is only water and the item itself. they are required to list the major allergens, which include wheat. natural flavorings may include barley or malt, which they don't have to list.

      Gluten Sensitivity

      By StuartJ · Posted

      I don't think the eggs were to blame; yesterday was the first time she had made gluten-free bread using Xanthan gum as a thickener, and while this is generally assumed to be OK (and most gluten-free recipes call for it}, I read that Xanthan gum intolerance, or sensitivity, primarily manifests as gastrointestinal discomfort. The most common symptoms are related to digestion. Individuals may experience bloating and gas due to the fermentation of xanthan gum by gut bacteria.    Bingo.  Since this was the only different ingredient she had used, I think we have found the trigger.   Now to look for an alternative.   Maybe this will help?  https://theglutenlessmaximus.com/gluten-free-resources/how-to-gluten-free-baking-without-xanthan-gum/

      Is it common to develop a wheat allergy in addition to Celiac Disease?

      By Stephanie Wakeman · Posted

      Hello Everyone, I was diagnosed with Celiac disease over 15 years ago by the gold standard of endoscopy.  Over the years, I've had a couple of accidental ingestion of gluten.  The last 2 accidents, I stared to develop symptoms of an allergic response IN ADDITION to the typical GI symptoms experienced with gluten exposure.  A couple weeks ago, I ate some pasta that I thought was 100% chickpea, but instead it was a wheat/chickpea blend.  I actually had an anaphylaxis reaction and needed medical attention.  I now have an Epi-pen.  Has anyone else developed an allergy in addition to Celiac? How common is this?  Thanks in advance for your stories and support.   Stephanie

      Gluten Sensitivity

      By trents · Posted

      @rjane, yes, it often feels overwhelming in the beginning. But let me encourage you by saying that it will get easier. You and your husband will develop, over time, a sixth sense of how gluten is typically hidden in the food supply and where it is found and you will develop an inventory of foods that you can trust and to stock your pantry with. The largest risk involves eating out at restaurants. Even if you order things that are naturally gluten free, you have no control over cross contamination happening back in the kitchen in how things are prepared and handled. Another trap is eating at other people's homes who are trying to accommodate your husband's need to eat gluten free but who lack knowledge about how gluten may be hidden in the food supply. I mean, who would expect to find wheat in soy sauce or Campbell's tomato soup? I know you aren't going to want to hear this, but you may want to consider making your kitchen entirely gluten free to eliminate the possibility of accidents and cross contamination. It would also simplify your meal preparation. Yes, I'm talking about both of you eating gluten free in the home. Many couples find this is the easiest and most practical approach to being consistent and keeping their celiac loved one safe. You might find this helpful:
