Pc Whole-Grain Dijon?

Hi folks,

Need a quick answer here! Does anyone know if PC whole grain dijon mustard is gluten-free? I couldn't find any info on it that was definite, and as it's not my mustard (it's my aunt's, we have a family dinner on Sunday) they called to check. They read the ingredients, and everything sounded ok except the "natural flavours."

Can anyone say one way or the other?

I have suspected this product in the past as the cause of a minor glutening. I do not know for sure - President's Choice is not very user friendly. In fact, I have pretty much given up on all their brands since they do not like to disclose gluten (they want you to call every time, I'll stick to brands I know, thanks).

This is very frustrating because our Extra Foods became a No Frills - a little less store space, low prices BUT they overwhelm with their brands - pushing out the mainstream ones, which really limits choices. Fortunately, we have a Safeway and, while pricier, they carry quite a bit gluten-free product & have gluten-free lists for their own brand.

I contacted them and they assured me it is indeed safe. Usually I like to make my own mustard but happened to have this product on hand.

Thanks for the input you two. I didn't make it to the family party as I got glutened yesterday (my own fault, really) but it's good to know for the future.

Northern Elf - I've had the same experience with other PC items. You have to call with the code number, and even then it's kind of vague. It's too bad, because before I went gluten-free, I really liked a lot of PC items. Now the risk just isn't worth it. I shop at No Frills because it's close and affordable, but there are still some items I'll get at Wal-Mart or Highland Farms, because No Frills doesn't carry everything.

Anyone else think it's time to open up a gluten-free grocery store? :P

      @Scott Adams That's actually exactly what I ended up asking for— vodka tonic with Titos.  I saw on their website that Tito's is certified gluten-free (maybe many of the clear vodkas are, I don't know, I just happened to look up Tito's in advance). I should have actually specified the 'splash' though, because I think with the amount of tonic she put in there, it did still end up fairly sweet.  Anyway, I think I've almost got this drink order down!

      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.
