The Gluten Contamination Study We've Been Waiting For
Jefferson Adams commented on Jefferson Adams's article in Additional Concerns
The study provides good methodology and solid scientific method. Not sure where you're getting this "16 washings" stuff, but that's not what the science says. Yes, we do need more studies, and larger ones. And no, I wouldn't recommend sharing a toaster, but I know many celiacs who do not use dedicated utensils, and simply wash them. They are apparently vindicated... -
The Gluten Contamination Study We've Been Waiting For
Jefferson Adams commented on Jefferson Adams's article in Additional Concerns
The study seems aimed at helping people quantify, and thus manage, actual real world risk, and helping to dispel unnecessary fears. For example, no need to fear properly washed utensils. Knowledge is power.- 70 comments

The Gluten Contamination Study We've Been Waiting For
Jefferson Adams commented on Jefferson Adams's article in Additional Concerns
Saying 20ppm is "meaningless" doesn't make it so. That standard was established after rigorous consultation with leading scientists.

Also, the standard has everything to do with protecting people with celiac disease... -
The Gluten Contamination Study We've Been Waiting For
Jefferson Adams commented on Jefferson Adams's article in Additional Concerns
Actually, this study used rigorous scientific methodology, and makes its full results public without cost, unlike the site you mentioned.

Yes, the Impossible Burger is Gluten-Free. Hooray!
Jefferson Adams commented on Jefferson Adams's article in Additional Concerns
You're not going to eat the bun in the picture. Of course you'll want a gluten-free bun, and a reliable gluten-free kitchen, if you have celiac disease. The point of the article is just that the Impossible Burger is, in fact, gluten-free. You can make it at home, if you don't trust restaurants. -
