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)

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
