Brianna's Salad Dressing Gf?

I'm trying to identify the source of a reaction. Does anyone know if Brianna's French Vinaigrette salad dressing is gluten-free? Or does anyone have it nearby and they could tell me the phone number on the package to call for info? (I have it at home, but I'm at work). Thanks!

If you have a problem with rice - that wouldn't be a gluten issue.  I love their dressings and do well with them.  Looking at the ingredients - it looks like they use apple cider vinegar.

rice wine vinegar contains barley, which is not gluten free. this is a very common mistake people make. rice wine vinegar is NOT safe for celiacs.

Which flavor has " rice wine vinegar"? Neither of the two that said " French" contains rice wine vinegar.

Maybe you mean malt vinegar?  The kind you have with Fish and chips?  Malt  vinegar is not gluten free and is based on barley.   It is fermented instead of distilled.  

If it were me, I would probably react to the additive Xanthan Gum.  Just a personal intolerance of mine.  So, I avoid commercially processed dressings.  Hubby can consume them without issue.  

Oh, my cousin got glutened by a salad dressing.  Same flavor and bottle type but different brand.  The new one was not gluten free.  Now she always read the labels, even if she has to put on her reading  glasses to do it in the store!

Rice wine vinegar is completely safe for celiacs.  The only one that is not gluten free is MALT VINEGAR.

rice wine / rice vinegar often do contain barley malt. many online forums are incorrect. always check the ingredients of rice wine vinegar - sometimes safe, often times not.

i have reacted to rice wine vinegar many many times. i eat mostly raw or cook my own food (rarely eat out or anything packaged) so it's very easy for me to pinpoint exactly what causes my reactions.

my bottle of this dressing stated "rice wine vinegar" on the ingredients. i have never purchased this one before, but perhaps they have a new recipe, or this is an old bottle of old recipe. i threw out the bottle already or i would post a photo. 

it was the french vinagraitte with the grapes on the bottle.

It's the tocopherols. I just ate the strawberry label one and my dh is back with a vengeance. I emailed and asked source of tocopherols but haven't heard back yet.

Hmm, I don't see anything about rice wine vinegar in this article you linked?  It seems to be about Balsalmic vinegar (grape vinegar) instead.  I don't think they even make rice wine vinegar in Italy because they probably don't grow rice there?

tocopherols are not a concern for Celiacs.  they are gluten free no matter what the original source.

      No, I've not been diagnosed as celiac.  Despite Entero Labs being relocated to Switzerland/Greece, I'll be doing another test. After eating wheat products in Greece for 4 weeks, there wasn't any reaction.  However, avoiding it here in the states.   Thanks everyone for your responses.

      Thank you @JulieRe so much for sharing this extra information. I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better and I hope it keeps moving in that direction. I feel I'm having so many lightbulb moments on this forum just interacting with others who have this condition. I also was diagnosed with gastric reflux maybe about 10 years ago. I was prescribed ranitidine for it several years back, which was working to reduce my gastric reflux symptoms but then the FDA took ranitidine off the shelves so I stopped taking it. I had a lot of ups and downs healthwise in and around that time (I suddenly gained 20 pounds, blood pressure went up, depression got worse, and I was diagnosed with OSA). At the time I attributed my change in symptoms to me taking on a new stressful job and didn't think much else about it. They did give me a replacement gastric reflux drug since ranitidine was off the shelves, but when I went on the CPAP for my OSA, the CPAP seemed to correct the gastric reflux problem so I haven't been on any gastric reflux drug treatment for years although I still do have to use a CPAP for my OSA. Anyway that's a long story but just to say… I always feel like I've had a sensitive stomach and had migraines my whole life (which I'm now attributing to having celiac and not knowing it) but I feel my health took a turn for much worse around 2019-2020 (and this decline started before I caught covid for the first time). So I am now wondering based on what you said, if that ranitidine i took could have contributed to the yeast overgrowth, and that the problem has just been worsening ever since. I have distinctly felt that I am dealing with something more than just stress and battling a more fundamental disease process here. I've basically been in and out of different doctor specialties for the past 5 years trying to figure out what's wrong with me. Finally being diagnosed with celiac one year ago, I thought I finally had THE answer but now as I'm still sick, I think it's one of a few answers and that maybe yeast overgrowth is another answer. For me as well, my vitamin deficiencies have persisted even after I went gluten-free (and my TTG antibody levels came down to measurably below the detectable limit on my last blood test). So this issue of not absorbing vitamins well is also something our cases have in common. I'm now working with a nutritionist and taking lots of vitamins and supplements to try and remedy that issue. I hope that you continue to see improvements in working with your naturopath on this. Keep us posted!

      Hello everyone. I am Elena and am 38 years old. I suspect I have a gluten intolerance even if my celiac panel is ok. I have the following symptoms : facial flushing, Red dots not bumps în face, bloating abdominal distension, hair loss, depression anxiety even with meds and even bipolar. Fatigue extreme to the point of not being able to work. All of these after I eat gluten. Could I have non celiac gluten sensitivity? Thanks anyone else with these symptoms?

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!
