I just woke up from my nap and ate a sugar cookie that I made but used food dye this time in the frosting and feel bloated.

Here are the ingredients:

Water, Propylene Glycol, FD & C Blue 1, FD&C Red 3. FD&C Yellow 5, FD&C Red 40 and Proplparaben (Preservative)

the Better Crocker Decor selects which are a 6 pack of sprinkles has the following ingredients

Sugar, caranuba wax, confectioner glaze, yellow 5 and 6, red 3, blue 1

I made the sugar cookies last week without the dye and sprinkles and did just fine so it has to be something in one of these ingredients.

Does powdered sugar have wheat?

If powdered sugar had wheat, the law would require it to be listed.

Nothing in the ingredients you listed would seem to have gluten. In addition, you mention McCormick in your title. McCormick clearly lists any gluten in its products.

Bloating is not always caused by gluten, there are lots of foods that can cause bloating, especially sugar. Just because you didn't feel bloated the last time you ate cookies doesn't mean you won't ever feel bloated after eating them. There are lots of other factors that go into feeling bloated too, what else you ate today and even yesterday, how much water you've had, etc. I don't think you got glutened by the food dye or sprinkles.

Thanks all. This was bloating due to gluten, I know the difference. My daughter slipped me one bite of her muddy buddy which is rice chex, melted semi choc. morsals and p-nut butter all mixed together. I figured out that one little rice chex I had was contaminated since she used her p-nut butter. :o We learn as we go!

I have the Gluten allergy and I would not eat anything with that many dyes in it.  I try to avoid dyes as much as possible.  Even if they say they are gluten-free, you don't know what other chemicals make them up.

The info on this thread is from 2009.  Some ingredients may have changed during that amount of time.

 

Dyes are not a gluten concern.  You may not want to eat them for other reasons.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet.  I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now.  He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs.  It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc.  It's literally neurological inflammation.  Not to be taken lightly here.  We have sought out many other possible ways to cope during this window of time (8 months!!!!)  without success.   AN-PEP does not help and seems like studies on this are not well researched.  So, we are trying this out because research shows some promising results.  And, all participants showed no cravings afterwards, no signs of addiction.  The patch is different than the oral route such as smoking, vaping, gum, pouch, etc.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-Free.

      Nausea

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      Hi all  I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also].  BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering if others suffer from nausea, even if following a gluten free diet.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      @fatjacksonthecat I have been doing some digging about the topic of nicotine and celiac.  I came across many studies that showed that the nicotine patch helped many with long covid and chronic fatigue syndrome.  I have a son who was diagnosed with celiac and his symptoms are severe when he is glutened.  He shows a lot of neurological inflammation and suffered with fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety and insomnia. There have been studies revealing that nicotine smoke actually masking celiac symptoms.  I also read that microdosing with a nictoine patch prevents one from addiction.  We are currently trying this out and so far it has lifted the brain fog and helped with anxiety and mood.  One of the studies I have read showed that it's not so much the dose, but the length of time a person is on the patch that showed improvements.  Many showed significant improvement as early as week 3 and continued through week 12.  We are taking 3 day breaks in between to make sure we don't down regulate the nicotine receptors.   How have things been for you?  Are you still chewing nicotine gum?  Perhaps, try the patch?  And how long did it take to ease up on your symptoms when glutened?

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here.  I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana
