Apple Cider Flavored Vinegar

Okay so I read a few posts on here saying to watch out for Heinz Apple Cider FLAVORED vinegar. I have the Triumph Grocery guide and decided to look in there and it not only list the plain Apple Cider vinegar but the APPLE CIDER FLAVORED. Is this book actually not reliable? This really bothers me.....

I've never heard of Heinz Apple Cider FLAVORED vinegar. What does the label say? Here's the website and I don't see anything about the flavored vinegar: Open Original Shared Link

I think the main thing we have to watch for in vinegar is the word MALT, which is not gluten-free.

Edit: I know some people do have problems with vinegar but it's not because of gluten (well, except for Malt as noted above)

I'd never heard of it either but if you search on here people were talking about it...the fact that it's listed there is making me nervous the grocery guide may not be trustworthy.

After looking at the Heinz website, there's only one apple cider vinegar listed, which I use and have no problem with it.

I just went to the Heinz website and at the bottom of the page I saw this:

Are Heinz

You're right, Bart. I was only checking on the Apple Cider Vinegar she was asking about, not the other varieties that contain barley. And malt = barley, a big no-no for us.

I wonder what the other threads were talking about with the Apple Cider Flavored vinegar having gluten? Unless they changed it in the last few years and i was reading old threads?

It's always a good idea to check the ingredients on the label as ingredients do change from time to time. The labels would have the most up-to-date info. Some of the old threads on the forum may not be current.

I'm thinking maybe they discontinued the Apple Cider Flavored Vinegar? I do remember it not being on HeInz's list of gluten free items several years ago which is why it is mentioned in archived posts.

Like SA said, information in old product posts may be outdated and no longer correct.

I don't know why they would sell "apple cider flavored" vinegar when most vinegar is, in fact, made from cider, and products labeled "cider vinegar" are easy to find.

jerseyangel Proficient

The Apple Cider Flavored Vinegar, if I remember correctly, was from a grain source with flavoring added.

Have no idea what it was used for.

I'm pretty certain we're talking about some old threads.

Yep, definitely old threads.

Okay I'll just be careful as usual then. If i pick it up i'll also call them to be sure.

Am I missing something? I'll highlight the sentence I was referring to that I got from the Heinz site yesterday:

Some Heinz

You're not missing anything, bartfull-- I did. Thanks for the current information :)

      The biopsy results were what said indicative of "weak or partially treated celiac disease".

      Exactly what component was indicative of "weak celiac disease"? Is that a reference to the endoscopy results or the whole picture of the results of the blood test combined with the endoscopy results? Villous blunting is the hallmark of celiac disease.

      Of course, what you breathe in eventually winds up in the gut because it gets trapped in the mucous lining of the airway and throat.

      hey all thank you for your responses. RMJ: Yes I am going to go and buy some N95 masks for work, and I think my employer will reimburse me. I can't re-use them for the maximum 5 reuses unfortunately because I am very sensitive and when I get home I have to wash all my clothes and immediately take a shower. Thank you for your suggestion! Russ H: I have never been formerly diagnosed, and I completely understand the possibility of this being a mild viral infection. I went to get tested for Influenza/COVID and both came back negative, my Primary Care Manager told me it could be a cold. That is always a possibility, however, I have been glutened at restaurants before (5 known exposures within the last 7 years) and the way in which my body gets sick, I can kind of tell them apart from one another if that makes sense. For instance, being gluten-sick for some can be described as flu-like symptoms, and when I get sick with gluten it comes on slower than when I have the flu or COVID. Typically starts out with headache, brain fog, and since I believe I ingested it working with flour (airborne) postnasal drip was one of the first to come along after my exposure as well. Another thing is that I have not quite had a fever but elevated temp (99 Fahrenheit) which is typical for me when I get ill with gluten exposure, followed by aches, sore body, stomach Hell, etc. This is the first time I have ever dealt with it in an airborne setting, but the onset of symptoms are all familiar. I think it is also possible that I am more susceptible to a cold now having been exposed to gluten. I don't have/can't afford private insurance currently and the agency I get my healthcare from works in dubious ways to prevent themselves from having to provide disability payments to veterans, as Celiacs/NCGS is a service connected disability. Everything for the state. Thank you for your comment, it has not fallen on deaf ears. I wanted to thank you all for your concern and time in writing to me; I'm trying to make sense of this because I like this job a lot (very short commute too) and I don't want to quit but constantly exposing myself to gluten is making me more ill, and damaging my immune system. I am still sick writing this. Plan moving forward: I am going to see how the N95 mask work for me, and I will be looking for a job that does not involve handling or being exposed to gluten in the workplace. I truly didn't think this job would be an issue since I was not eating any of the gluten. Thanks again all! I'm happy that I found this forum.
