Salad Dressing

Is there a salad dressing out there that's gluten free but everyone has already been using it even though they aren't gluten free? Does this make since? I don't want a dressing that is made just for people who need to go gluten free. I want one that's sold in the regular market and most people use.

Most of Annie's Naturals dressings are gluten free, as are several Ken's brand. I like the raspberry walnut vinegarette, and it's fat free, too :D

Kraft Ranch dressing is gluten-free. Not sure if all the other flavors are gluten-free, but Kraft has a great policy regarding gluten disclosure, so it won't be hidden in one of the less than obvious ingredients.

However (since going gluten-free), I've been making more food from scratch and it's hard to go back to bottles, as there's no comparison in taste/nutrition. I'd be happy to share my Ceasar and Italian dressing mixes if you want. My glutenoid family prefers it over bottles too. ;)

Wishbone is made by Unilever and they have this same policy. Just read the labels.

My daughter eats the Kraft Ranch and Kraft Creamy Italian without any problems. Hidden Valley Ranch - Ranch dressing is also OK. You can buy it in the individual serving sizes . . . more expensive this way, of course . . . but this is what we keep with us when we travel/go to a restaraunt so we don't have to worry about refrigeration.

I would love to try your recipes. Thanks! I was a big junk food eater before I was diagnosed about three weeks ago and am 5'9" and 130 so I have never had to watch my weight. This diagnosis has been very hard on me to adjust my eating habits but after reading so much about ingredients and what is in our food I am all for eating healthy now. I think even though I didn't really have to watch my weight my eating habits were starting to show in my appearance and energy. I just bought a book from Publix called Eat This and Live by Don Colbert and it's a wonderful book. I sit here and think about eating man made foods only and am curious to see what the results would be. So scary to think of how carried away everyone is with eating everything that's sold in a grocery store not knowing how unhealthy it is for you! No wonder medical expenses are so high! Everyone gets sick and heads to the pharmacy and really needs to take a better look at their food choices. Thanks again for offering your recipes.

If you want something really easy to make at home, I just mix extra virgin olive oil with a really good balsamic vinegar. It tastes better than the store-bought vinegarettes and is healthier. You can then add pepper or other seasonings to suit your tastes. You can switch it up each time, or make a bottle of it and keep it in the fridge for convenience :)

Good for you for becoming educated on healthy eating and making such a big lifestyle change. Good luck and use this forum for support if you ever need it!

In a bottle, I put in

2/3 c good balsalmic,

1/3 c EVOO

palmfull (about 1 tbs...) salt free italian seasoning

good squeeze from the dijon mustard bottle

good squeeze from the agave nectar bottle (or honey or maple syrup)--about 1 tsp or so..

Shake and enjoy--it's AMAZING with fresh sliced tomatos-yummmmm

Tons and tons of commercial dressings are gluten-free. Many, many, many more are gluten-free than not.

Where do you buy individual packets?? I've been looking and can't find them!

Here's a source for travel sizes. They have a gluten-free category but others that are not in that are gluten-free. You just have to do your homework or know your brands.

      The Happy Tart review

      When my wife attempted to open the online card in the store with a cashier, it would not work. We then showed the owner the link to the card, the online receipt that I got upon purchase, and even my bank statement confirming the purchase. That did not satisfy her, since she said she needed the link to open to reveal the gift ID num. They even admitted they...

      Was the card itself lost or just the record or both?

      The Happy Tart review

      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally...

      Ibuprofen

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can...

      Ibuprofen

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce. Something is making my pain so much worse I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs. Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever...

Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
