Hot Dogs?

OK, I realize hot dogs are basically junk food, but here's my question... I don't see anything in the ingredients that indicates they would have gluten. But if they don't have gluten, then why are there "gluten free" hot dogs that cost a bazillion dollars? We don't eat them very often, but my little guy does like them, and I don't necessarily want to buy gluten free if the regular Ball Park frank version is OK. It would help at picnics as well.

Thanks

I but Trader Joes (if you have one). Preservative free, etc. But great price and taste.

Nathan's was the only brand (that I'm aware of) that did contain gluten...they no longer do. But, in the US (important to note), most are gluten free. Wheat should be clearly listed, if it's an ingredient. Oscar Meyer, Ball Park, Boars Head, Hillshire Farm's (except the Brats and Beer) are all gluten free.

Some people with Celiac/Gluten Intolerance only buy products labelled "Gluten Free".

Manufacturers have learned that this means they can charge more for it if they want to....and they do.

But there are a lot of hot dogs that are safe.

And a lot of products not labelled gluten free that really ARE gluten free.

I emailed a company yesterday about there hot dogs. The package said gluten-free, but I have had issues with cross contaminaion.

I was asking about the tasty bite skinless hotdogs they make here in Maine.

This was there reply:

of other things.

      Heat intolerant... Yikes

      By captaincrab55 · Posted

      Hi Colleen H,   I suffered with the pins and needles/burning feeling in my legs and feet for at least  6 years until my Nephrologist figured out that I had to go on a low salt diet.  He said my kidneys weren't strong enough to remove the salt.  The simple fix was a diuretic, but that med leaves the uric acid behind, so that wasn't an option.  On the bright side the low salt diet lowered my BP over 20 points and and the pins and needles/burning feeling went away.  Good Luck and hope this helps.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".
