I'm not sure, but the ones I've seen have been. I think McCormick Spices will always state ingredients. That's the brand I have.

I'm hesitant to say anything is ALWAYS gluten-free, but I've never found a paprika that isn't. I(t's not on my own radar screen of things to worry about.

I use the McCormick brand a lot and have had no problems.

Should be gluten free, however, it is a nightshade, like peppers, tomatoes, and potatoes so if you have a problem with those, it will affect you (it does me!)

I've been gluten-free for about five years now and have never had any trouble with spices, even mustard and hing (Frontier brand asafoetida which uses rice flour. Yesterday I was having some of the Turkish sheperd's salad that I made with chile powder from the bulk bin at the local natural food store and it felt like I was glutened. I'm supersensitive and it felt like my guts were being extracted for Chuck Norris' horrible balloon toy practical joke, so I am pretty sure that it wasn't a case of cc, but rather some mystery virus or people are actually adding wheat flour to chile powder out there somewhere. This is an old thread, so I was wondering if anyone else has run into this.

The only pure spices I've seen so far that are not safe are Great Value (Wal-Mart Brand). They disclose that their spices "May contain traces of wheat." on the packaging. However, this is the only instance I've seen where a spice is unsafe. As the others mentioned, McCormick is a great company to trust. ALL of their pure spices (oregano, paprika, thyme, pepper, etc.) are gluten free, and their spices mixes (like marinades) clearly state any allergens on the label. We also use Kroger brand spices and a few other generics. If in doubt, just call the company. It's nice to hear from them that the product is indeed gluten free! :)

I called the store and got Jesse, the gluten-free guru of the place who read me the ingredients, which all sounded fine (my word, there are a lot of ingredients in chile powder!) When I got home, my bf mentioned that his non-gluten-free dad had had a similar experience, so I'm guessing that it was just a virus, but I'll be sure to read labels before buying my bulk spices in the future. I realize that anytime you buy bulk you run risks, but I just can't conscience all of those little bottles that spices come in, either economically or spacewise. I looked around a little bit, but didn't find anything - anybody know of a decent list of spices to be on the lookout for as potential gluten-hiders? I know of curry powder, asafoetida (hing), wasabi and mustard and obviously any blends, but some people confuse mustard flour for regular flour when it isn't and that just makes for more confusion...

Thanks for the reply sunnybabi, I thought I had opted out of posting, but instead just opted out of the edit. Sorry about the grammar. B)

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
