First, thank you to all of those who have given such great insight to traveling! Since this is my first post - a quick history of me - I am moving to Barcelona Spain this summer and am curioius if anyone knows of gluten-free milk and yogurt products out there. I will be living there for at least a year and plan on doing a lot of cooking and I've read that some superkmarkets carry gluten-free bread and pasta, but I haven't come across anyone saying if there are issues with the dairy. Many thanks to all responses!

Ann

There are a lot of gluten-free food options in Spain. El Corte Ingles has a gluten-free section and there are even little stores that sell mostly gluten-free food. I found at least 2 little shops in Barcelona that had stuff. I can't answer about the dairy since I am a vegan, but you can always contact companies like you would in the US. I called a Spanish jam company. If you go for regular milk, you should be fine, though. I spent a summer in Spain, so, feel free to message me if you want.

Thank you for the reassurance! I'll figure it out more once I get there but I'm trying to pre-plan as much as possible. It would be easiest to call the company after seeing what is available.

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
