Gluten-Free Salad Dressing In Individual Packets

My daughter is going away to school in a month, she will be living in the dorms. We have a lot of favorite salad dressings that we use at home but it isn't really practical for her to carry a bottle of salad dressing in her purse every day.

What I'm looking for are any gluten free salad dressings in individual packets. I once bought some Kraft packets in Florida and they even said Gluten free on them. However they don't carry them in the stores here in MA.

I'll buy them online but when I go to various sites that sell them, like minimus.biz or Amazon I can't tell if they are gluten free or not.

Does anyone have a resource of gluten-free dressings that I can order in individual packets?

Thanks so much!

Susan

I have no personal experience with them, but others have posted in the past about Open Original Shared Link as an online source of single serving you-name-it. The products are name brands, so you can check out the gluten-free status before ordering.

I don't know about individual packets, but I was in the exact same boat last year, going off to college and not knowing how I was going to deal with all that. What I did was got a bunch of the small containers restaurants use for ketchup and stuff (fast food places have a lot of them) and the tops that go with them. I kept a bottle of salad dressing in my mini-fridge in my dorm room and then when I was going to the dining hall or to a restaurant, I'd just pour some into a container (its the perfect amount!) and I was ready to go. Hope this helps!

I found some Annie's and Kraft salad dressings in individual packets at minimus.biz, and you can easily look up which of those are gluten-free. This was about 5 years ago but you can still find them. Also look at foodservicedirect.com.

They're great! I don't know if any of the dressings are gluten-free but they do carry some gluten-free products.

Hello! To help its customers with special dietary needs identify appropriate products, Minimus.biz set up special categories on its website, including one specifically called "Gluten-Free Food." If on the site, click on "Specialty Food," then "Diet Specific Food" and you will see "Gluten Free Food" listed. click on that and you should be able to navigate the category. I hope this helps. Good luck!

      Be interesting to see the effects of dairy reintroduction with gluten. As well as milk protein sensitivity in and of itself the casein part particularly has been shown to mimic gluten in about 50% of celiacs. Keep us posted!

      She has been dairy free for six years, so she’d already been dairy free for two years at her last testing and was dairy free for the entire gluten challenge this year as well (that had positive results). However, now that we’re doing another biopsy in six weeks, we decided to do everything we can to try to “see” the effects, so we decided this past week to add back in dairy temporarily for breakfast (milk and cereal combo like you said).

      Hi Christiana, Many thanks for your response.  Interestingly, I too cannot eat wheat in France without feeling effects (much less than in the US, but won't indulge nonetheless).  I also understand children are screened for celiac in Italy prior to starting their education. Wise idea as it seems my grandson has the beginning symptoms (several celiacs in his dad's family), but parents continue to think he's just being difficult.  Argh.  There's a test I took that diagnosed gluten sensitivity in 2014 via Entero Labs, and am planning on having done again.  Truth be told, I'm hoping it's the bromine/additives/preservatives as I miss breads and pastas terribly when home here in the states!  Be well and here's to our guts healing ❤️

      Lol that’s so true! Hope you get clarity, it’s tough when there’s doubt. There’s so much known about celiac disease with all the scientific research that’s been done so far yet practically and clinically there’s also so much unknown, still. Out of curiosity what’s her dairy consumption like? Even compared to early years to now? Has that changed? Calcium is dependent in the mechanism of antigen presenting cells in the gut. High calcium foods with gluten grains can initiate inflammation greater.  This is why breakfast cereals and milk combo long term can be a ticking time bomb for genetically susceptible celiacs (not a scientific statement by any means but my current personal opinion based on reasoning at present). Milk and wheat are the top culprits for food sensitivity. Especially in childhood. There are also patient cases of antibodies normalising in celiac children who had milk protein intolerance/ delayed type allergy. Some asymptomatic. There were a couple of cases of suspected celiacs that turned out to have milk protein intolerance that normalised antibodies on a gluten containing diet. Then there were others that only normalised antibodies once gluten and milk was eliminated. Milk kept the antibodies positive. Celiac disease is complicated to say the least.

      And thank you for your encouragement. I am glad that her body is doing a good job fighting it. I also just want clarity for her moving forwards. She was only 6 for the last round of testing and she's 10 now, so I'm also hoping that makes a difference. It was weird during her last round of testing though, because right before her biopsy, we'd upped her gluten intake by giving her biscuits made from straight up vital wheat gluten, and her labs actually normalized slightly (lower ttg and her ema went negative). Bodies just do weird things sometimes! lol
