Can anyone clear up some confusion about sour cream? I checked at the grocery store today, and they all looked like they should be gluten-free. But a little red flag popped up in the back of my head that there's something about sour cream ... anyone?

Most are okay, when they say ingredients: cream, starter culture

For those with thickeners or additives, you may want to check with the manufacturer. This is for the U.S.

Just read the label. I have seen 1 sour cream that wasnt gluten-free. I wish I could remember the name of the brand. But it did list wheat. So just becareful. I always buy Daisy. :D

Good luck!

When you go to restaurants, yogurt and sour cream frequently have gluten in them. It allows the sour cream, yogurt, sorbet, and ice cream to sit on the counters for longer periods of time before they turn to mush. A good reason to avoid them even if a person isn't gluten intolerant. :)

Why do you say that? Did you work in a restaurant that does that? Around here, most restaurants use the same ice cream we buy at the grocery without added wheat.

I've checked yogurt, sour cream and ice creams at several restaurants and never found gluten. I seriously doubt they "frequently" have gluten. And why would any of these sit on a counter for long?

As for sour cream specifically, I've never found one with gluten. I think I have seen some cheapo ones with MFS, but it wasn't gluten.

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By trents · Posted

      This topic has come up before on this forum and has been researched. No GMO wheat, barley and rye are commercially available in the USA. Any modifications are from hybridization, not laboratory genetic modification. Better toleration of wheat, barley and rye products in other countries is thought to be due to use of heirloom varieties of these cereal grains as opposed to the hybrids used in the USA which contain much larger amounts of gluten.

      Welcome to the forum @Ceekay! If you have celiac disease then you can't eat wheat in other countries because it would still contain gliadin, the harmful part of the grain. Have you been diagnosed with celiac disease?

      I can eat wheat products safely and without discomfort when traveling to Mexico, Outer Mongolia, and Japan. I feel that US wheat, barley, and rye are grown from genetically-modified seeds that have had something unhealthy done to them, that causes a bad reaction in many of us.

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Ceekay · Posted

      I think all barley and barley malt  have gluten. I would avoid it. The only gluten-free beer I've tried that tastes good is by Holidaily, a Colorado brewery. Their Fat Randy's IPA is great, except that it's almost impossible to find and grocers won't order it (they're at the mercy of their "food distributors," who seem to hate Holidaily). If you can find any Holidaily, try it--it's great. Never mind Spain -;)
