Chewing Gum And Other Food Questions

Hi all, Susan here, new to this. I am having trouble using the search engine. So I have some questions, maybe you can help me

Is there a chewing gum I can have?

what about store bought sausage? or hot dogs?

Luncheon meats?

How about Ensure - high protein?

Is "Glide" floss okay (mint)

tylenol?

bayer aspirin?

non-fat milk? do they use something with gluten to strip out the fat?

That's all I can think of for now. Thanks

P.S. thanks for the list of what not to eat! and thanks for the meds manufacturer sheet - both very helpful

Hello and welcome,

I am from Canada, so some things are different between Canada and the U.S.

I by Grimm's or Freybe's meats as they are specifically labelled gluten-free. Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link They carry weiners, lunch meats, sausage, pepperoni sticks, etc :)

Ensure is also gluten-free: Open Original Shared Link

All Tylenol products in Canada are gluten-free, I imagine the U.S. is the same, but I would search their website or call them to confirm.

White milk is gluten-free. Some flavoured milks might contain gluten so you want to read ingredients carefully and check the company websites when in doubt.

When in doubt try going to the manufacturer's website and searching for product information. Some companies now list what items are gluten-free. If not, email or call them to find out. This forum is an excellent source of informatino too :)

All the best,

Jillian

Hi Susan.

All wrigleys products are safe, including the candy.

Tylenol (the actual brand, not store brand) is safe. So is Bayer aspirin.

Glide is safe too, but I use the regular one.

For lunchmeats and hotdogs, you must read the label or call companies. Many are safe.

Non-fat milk is safe too.

The only one I edon't know about is ensure. Read the labels or call the company.

Good luck!

Kraft (which includes Oscar Mayer and Nabisco) has good labeling practices. According to their website, they will clearly list any gluten ingredients, and they seem to have a decent understanding of celiac disease.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
