Play Dough - gluten-free, Have You Bought It?

The first time, I thought it could not have been from the play dough. But the second time, months later, I know she was glutened from it. It must be from not washing her hands and putting her hands in her mouth right? I don't think she's sensitive to it through her skin, but I guess I don't know since she's not handling wheat or anything.

I saw the gluten free dough from discount school supply. Has anyone bought that? Is it worth the cost? Have you bought anything else you like or made any that you like?

Thanks!

Someone just published a gluten free play dough recipe on Recipezaar.com. I've never tried it myself but it's the same recipe I've seen before and others have said it works well.

Our pre-k teacher tried the gluten-free playdough and I also made my own for her on occasion. The homemade one was better...and definitely safer. I've also tried the Crayola modeling clay which is claimed gluten-free. Ours was not. I called Crayola and they told me that it is made on shared equipment so it may have cross-contamination issues despite their efforts to clean equipment.

I'd recommend making your own. If your child is really sensitive, it's the only way to be truly safe. And it really doesn't take that long to make.

Good Morning

I bought gluten-free Play Dough from this website and it is AWESOME!!

I am in Canada and had it shipped to a friend in the states and then had it shipped up here. It was worth it. My 3 1/2 year old lil girl loves it. It is just like regular play dough. She got it for Christmas and it never dries out, fun and SAFE!!

I make gluten-free playdough for my 5 year old son's class. It's very easy ... I double the batch and only make it every 2 months.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      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.

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

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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—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.
