Miracle Whip And Other Vinegar-based Condiments

Hey all-- I need a little help here. Once again, the vinegar debate... Depending on what I read, some say items like A1 and miracle whip are okay b/c they are made with distilled vinegar. But I have found other sources that say do not eat either period-distilled or not b/c of gluten. What do you think?? :unsure:

Distilled vinegar is safe in my opinion. During the distillation process, the actual grain is removed.

miracle whip is fine--but dont use the miracle whip light--the last i knew it contained gluten--miracle whip mayo is fine too--and most vinegar is ok too--its a rough decision to take--sometimes i think and think and put it back--deb

I agree with celiac3270 I think it is safe when distilled. I have never had a problem with distilled vinegar either.

I think the only vinigar that can't be considered gluten free is malt vinigar.

Sorry celiac3270! I knew I was taking a gamble there but wasn't sure. I thought perhaps Peterson could be a maiden name and King a married name. Thought I'd go for it and assume away...but was wrong. Gotta give the male celiacs their respect :)

Lol :lol: ...it's fine. Peterson is my mom's maiden name, which became my nickname...I'm too young to be married, though, anyway :D . And it's a good gamble to take--there aren't many males who post here freqently....me, Richard...?

celiac3270,

Also a serious shortage of males at my support group - about 1 man for every 10 women. Are there fewer celiac males or are they just afraid of support groups!

Somewhere I heard that women are more prone to getting autoimmune disorders. I don't know the ratios for celiac. I think women tend to find support groups though.

I think they avoid anywhere they might have to show their "feelings" :P

I wonder if this would have anything to do with all of the hormones that rage through us, and especially in regards to having babies! I'm thinking of how pregnancy throws some autoimmune disorders into remission.

I've heard the same thing about women being more prone to autoimmune disorders. I think it's also that a lot of males don't care that much about their condition, so they'll just deal with it, but not care to try to learn more about it or help others who have it.......or like you said, avoid situations where you share feelings :) . I'm an exception to that, but my mom influences me more than my dad :lol:

My daughter just bought some Miracle Whip, made by Kraft. The label states it is made with modified food starch?

Let me know what you think.

Unless a Kraft label says wheat,rye,barley, or oats it is safe. It will not hide anything :D

So does that mean if Kraft states modified food starch it's ok to eat?

Thanks

yes. Modified food starch in the US is almost always corn starch, however to be safe I stick with companies such as Kraft and ConAgra that declare any wheat source on the label.

I don't have any problems with distilled vinegar, and I am an extremely sensitive celiac! LOL!!!! :D I just mean that I react to just about everything. Just last night I got accidentally "glutened" by cooking on a stove that hadn't been thoroughly cleaned after hubby made his pizza the other night and sliced it on the stove. I set my cooking spoon down in the crumbs and then continued to stir my food with it. What a dummy. I got so sick, I burst a blood vessel in my eye while I was puking and now have a lovely rash all over my face :rolleyes:

yeah anything by Kraft that doesn't have wheat,rye,barley,oats on the label is safe...they dont hide any gluten under any ingredients at all :D

Why thank you Sally! I'm actually feeling ok right now. Just this rash on my face to remind me, and a dull ache in my belly.

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      High TTG-IgG and Normal TTG-IgA

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease...

The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
